So he’s not even gonna bring up the whole “I saw you sleeping with your boss when you said you loved me” thing? Like, regardless I’d be pissed off.
Just bought the latest raw off Lezhin and BITCH LET ME TELL YOU. You’ll understand when you see it but I went from “Oh, no!” to “OH NOOOOOO!” real fast.
So we are expected to believe that Chika was just like “yeah, it’s all good, I’ve only been HARBORING THESE FEELINGS FOR EVER AND PROFESSING MY LOVE TO YOU but I’m gonna go marry this new chick I barely know for my families sake with no fuss.” Like I’m not even upset he’s with Masato I’m just upset they just cut corners and made a sloppy love triangle with no character development on any side. And I feel it heavily unrealistic that he didn’t have ANY reaction when Chika broke up with him and moved because my dude they were GOOD ASS FRIENDS and he’s just gonna be like “oh, yeah, thanks for making me your fuck buddy I didn’t really care either way, catch ya on the flip side!” Like these personalities just flew out the window so fast I’m disappointed.
Amen. I was confused from the first chapter because it seemed like the pairing was gonna be masato and hotaka and then it threw me a loop with chika just deciding he was going after hotaka and hotaka being all "yeah sure whatever" really bothered me. Couldn't really connect with any of the characters from the triangle. I was more in tune with the other chef friend that was just as confused as us
Interesting and sweet character development but I almost wonder if he (realistically) would take longer to come to terms with his old persona and new persona instead of just *poof* reverting back to his happy go lucky Wan loving aura. Especially when he has so much fear to overcome regarding his brother and all the years of “training” per se that’s been ingrained into him. Love the happy babies either way!
I posted almost the same thing. I shared my thoughts here:
I'm genuinely happy for the two, after his memories came back. But I felt rather empty at the same time : I felt as if the author skipped a crucial period of character development for Ha-Woon, to reconcile the nasty Ha-Woon of the first three chapters, to the Ha-Woon who realized he loves Wan after getting his memories back. When he recovered his memories, shouldn't he have a moment of self-crisis first? I mean, he initially regarded Wan as nothing more then a bug, and now, when he gets his memories back, wouldn't he be in emotional breakdown finding out he is 1)actually capable of falling in love 2) loving someone he disdained earlier and 3)finding out Wan fed little lies to him?
I couldn't help but feel the reason of 'protecting Han from his brother' seems a cop out, and the author could've explored Ha-Woon's character so much more (perhaps a chapter or two) Because as of now, the Ha-Woon in the beginning and now, coupled with his love and finally remembering the circumstances that made him who he was originally, is worlds different and I can't seem to bridge the gap between the two.
That’s definitely a more eloquent way of expressing what I meant so I concur!
Really enjoyed the ukes standoffish and independent personality the first part of the manga, sorely disappointed in how fast he fell back into the cliche easy uke.
Yea, either the uke starts weak or start strong but then whoops he has a back story and his true side is full anxiety or stuff like that because that makes the story more deep and can easily add drama.
And honestly, if the uke isn’t the stereotypical one and doesnt fall in love with the seme too easily, people usually critisize the uke. So it feels like the majority prefer a dumb uke than one that stick up for himself
Nope. If they fall in love too easily is when ukes get criticized just like you're doing. So is it okay if I criticize you for being 'dumb' enough to fall off a cliff when you were pushed? Both of them are equally not a choice. Ktbn.
Sorely disappointed how people fall back into the victim blaming status quo of real life and fiction so EASIly. Ktbn, dfba.
First of all, asshole, I was referring to his “tell me you love me” phrases and actions even though he was literally told that the seme wants to whore him out and DOESNT like him. As a fucking rape victim myself I’ll kindly ask you to fuck off since you feel the need to step to me and accuse ME of victim blaming a MANGA which is FICTION when I said NOTHING about his rape and even if I WERE to say something, I’d say that in real life he’d never want to see the seme again after the alleyway incident. I merely commented on the 2D personality and loss of effort in keeping his strong personality going. I didn’t blame him for falling in love I simply stated that I wish he’d kept his backbone because I’ve loved others and still knew my boundaries. Thanks, good night.
Yea some commentators here always use 'that's just fiction' argument whenever she/he gets nothing else to say to defend a typical rapist character.
Not sure if you meant that for me, I’m not defending the seme in any way? He’s clearly garbage.
I actually support your argument.
Well if it’s fiction set in a world where people think differently, then yes it can explain some stuff. For example, the reason why rape is such a bad thing in our society is due to the psychological damage it does to the victim. But in yaoi the said « victim » isn’t really affected by it and doesn’t even hold a grudge against the seme. Adding to that the difference in culture where : 1) the uke has to act like a « maiden » (which explains why he half ass reject the sex) and 2) a pushy seme is attractive
Then at this point, in many cases it’s really up to you to see it as rape or not.
Oh okay that’s kind of what I thought but the wording threw me off. Sorry!
Y’all it can’t be the teacher. Judging by his surprise to events in the latest raw I believe he had an inkling about the paintings but definitely no idea about hanky panky.
I’m the raws (the latest chapter) I cant believe the seme watched that happen to the uke but I guess that’s what he wanted to happen from the start. And you can tell it’s him because of the shirt collar and color.
What a shit plot. No character development and no consequences. Definitely more pissed than before I read this.
Very similar to 19 days and IM NOT COMPLAINING
