I can't believe people are worked up on this manga having a "shounen ai" tag, are you idiots? The author doesn't decide the tag a manga should have in a PIRATED SITE, it's either the uploader or the admin who decides it. It doesn't mean the tag is correct. I want you all to read Phil Deez's comment somewhere around here and tell me how fucking ridiculous their comment is. Redirect your misguided anger elsewhere because to be angry at people over some supposedly incorrect tag is astounding.
Again, you're wasting your energy trying to call out people over a story of someone younger having an innocent crush on an older person where nothing is portrayed romantically. The kid's definition of crush and love is different from an adult and yet here are all of you taking things the wrong way, it's so funny. This is so embarrassing to have it explained to y'all dumbasses many times. Take a fucking seat.
lets not kid ourselves further, the anime adaptation is pure garbage so let's just enjoy the source material as much as we can by not talking about the anime (p.s im not angry)
it's not like there was ever a good yaoi anime that could rival some great hentai animations lmaooo
no yaoi is not just smut and shounen Ai is not just plot wtf is that lol its literally all called BL anyway, its westerners who made this weird distinction and started the whole misconception. yaoi was never used in jpn to mean exclusive focus on sexual mlm relationships and shounen ai has a lot of negative connotations tied to it actually. banana fish is not bl too btw lol and there is no fucking rule that explicit works don't get longer series??? sekaiichi Hatsukoi, junjou romantica, super lovers, love stage etc. literally exist????
bro why are you so angry??? im not even a westerner first of all; I feel kind of offended tbh that you would think I am. and I did say yaoi is just smut???? thats literally my whole point. im just saying that in general, most smut anime are lower quality bc its just smut so it doesnt require a huge budget to begin with not that all smuts have a lower budget. idk why you're so angry? ik yaoi is BL, I mean it is a gay relationship after all. and also banana fish is a BL, I mean they were in love with each other, even the author stated, just bc the plot didnt revolve around their romance, doesnt mean they aren't a BL couple. i guess you could call banana fish action or crime thriller but its still a BL, you know cuz BOYS LOVE
One thing I have to point out is that Jooin shouldn't have said that he will think about Cain's confession, it will only be more painful to turn him down later. I don't know why everyone is confused about the situation, it's obvious that Jooin is clearly in love with Yahwi, they're endgame.
I've always been in the grey regarding Cain because if I have to say it, he doesn't belong anywhere in the story. His admittedly weird backstory and strong affection for Jooin is not enough for the latter to even think of him a romantic partner. In the end, he's just a plot device to make Yahwi's superiority shake a little, which is something that angers me because I've grown to be fond of Cain despite his lack of depth as a character. And that's not really saying much, because the others are just as shallow.
The past chapters have given me nothing but anger so I thought I should try to assess their characteristics more. But one would think 56 chapters are enough to say that they are fascinating characters, but truly, we have come this far with no progression at all.








This comment section is starting to act like twitter with their incorrect judgment. How come you're going to read a story where nothing is romantic and still get your judgment wrong? The tag is obviously incorrect. Please fucking read the story for once and decide how you're going to slap yourself for being embarrassing.
