I really hope no one was roped in by the prologue because the story isn't actually anything like that... Like at all.
That aside, is it annoying to anyone else how the art continues to go downhill specifically because they're using 3D models for the characters WAY too much? Like, they're used mostly for the hands and feet, but they always just make them look really off. They don't mesh right with the drawn stuff, their detail and shading is off, they don't appear like they're actually ever touching anything, and at one point the 3D hand looked like a monster's enlarged creepy hand. I nearly laughed at that panel.
Then when they clearly use a 3D model for the entire body? Look, I could let it slide with bg characters, but not the focuses of the panel. Not the main characters. One time Heewon's butt looked like a bag of rippling trash XD. And those 3D models done stand right. It's like they're being told to stand with their feet shoulder width apart and their arms our like monkey.
The over use of 3D models for the character's bodies just kept ripping me right out of the plot.
Idk if the artist is doing it because of shitty deadlines set by the editors or if they're just getting more and more lazy, but it's so sad to see.
Don't get me wrong, Heewon gave me the ikk 20someodd chapters ago when he straight up said he wanted to see the MC come outside looking pitiful when he had already assumed the MC had been drugged and raped (and let it happen, way to go Mr. Prosecutor) But he was the one who constantly stepped over the line he created and yet absolutely refused to allow the MC to do the same. "What more could I have said?" I DONT KNOW, MAYBE FUCKING ANYTHING?! LITERALLY DIDNT TELL HIM JACK SHIT. Oh, he's "dangerous". Motherf'er, YOU pout the MC in the hospital. WHAT DO YOU MEAN?! When his compass is that off to begin with, you HAVE to clearly state how his "dangerous" is different from your own!!!!
But let's not just brush over the MC's apparent issues. Why is he so fucking extreme? Literally got put into the hospital from a "play" that was too extreme and didn't bat an eye at it. Kept saying how he wished he could be strangled to death right then and there. Yet so far as we have been shown the entire story, he has no reason to be this way. He has never been depressed, suicidal, has a perfectly normal life (pastor parents but they don't seem overbearing at all or anything), like, why is the MC like this? He actually seems to have no self preservation at all UNLESS it's something socially, but he couldn't give a damn about his physical well being. (Also I even wonder about that as he constantly gets struck in the face which cannot be easily covered). Don't get me wrong, I get extreme bdsm kinks, but is his kink actually death or hospitalization? Heewon is right about one thing, the MC is fucking insane.
I am tired. So very tired. This trope is so overdone. There is never any originality from these manwha authors. Poor little meek minded, weak bodied, ignorant (to an absurd degree for characters in the 21st century), no personality, never learning from their past, uke (and in this case an omega) getting utterly manipulated by their walking red flag alpha who is of course flawless and gets everything effortlessly. Tall, handsome, never studied but top of their class, never struggled for anything. Silver spoon. Bangs everyone. Never suffers any consequences for their repeated sexual assaults and raped because "men, am I right?".
Alpha rapes omega while he is drunk and resisting. But hey, it's just boys being boys, right? Na, it's totally normal and even romantic! The green flag friend with a crush is obviously the bad guy, right? How dare he have a shared trauma with the MC and a trauma bond, and want to protect the MC after what they went through! HOW. DARE. Ugh. -enter eyeroll-
Seme keeps assaulting and forcing himself to on the MC. Cuz that's totally romantic and the MC is an utter freaking moron. They grow close, cuz again, constant sexual assault is so romantic (and original!). BFF gets pushed out of the picture. They're going to have to pull some super contrived BS to make the Seme look good and attempt to make you the reader forget what trash they are. And make the idiot no willed uke who never saw what trash he was idolize and depend on him.
I'm sure at some point the shitty MC with have some half assed attempt at running away and there will probably be a 3 chapter "chase" arch where the Seme realizes he's a piece of trash and repents to the uke who will fold immediately, the Seme won't actually ever be held accountable for being a piece of shit.
And then they will live happily ever after.
I would love more omegaverses with good (and original (honestly, like 30 omegverses on here are all exactly the same,just different characters)) plot like Omega Complex. And for the love of GOD can we please get PROPER representation for BDSM?!?!?!?!
TOOK THE WORDS OUT OF MY MOUTH!
it gets so annoying. I'm not big on realism, I'm read and enjoy toxic BLs, but holy shit. These things are rinse and repeat, especially when they try sooo hard to frame it as a uwu cute relationship, ML changes for MC. Like if you're gonna be a toxic/questionable BL omegaverse, at least try to be original about itಠ_ʖಠ
I just got to chapter 33 and I honestly don't think I can go on.
This isn't bdsm. Bdsm is build on mutual trust and respect. That isn't here, the uke honestly wants to hurt the Seme.
He has blackmailed, drugged, raped, exposed him to other people (all in much worse ways than my summary does justice for), all because he had brief satalitte social interactions with him as a child and is pissed that the Seme didn't remember him, let alone returned his one sided feelings that he never once expressed in any way whatsoever to the Seme.
Only semi-bad thing the Seme did was regift a scarf he gave him to his GF in highschool. For which the uke insulted him as he was drowning under the pressure from his father until he cried. (Revenge enough for the scarf incident)
This Dom uke is just flat out garbage. He deserves to suffer a thousand deaths of the most painful ways to die. The author is probably a fucking moron though and thinks his past somehow excuses his behavior. The author already just breezed past the drugging and exposure shit without an ounce of repercussion for the act of completely betraying any trust his sub Seme had in him.
It's just disgusting to read, and I really hate that garbage like this is why bdsm has the shitty rap it does. Because morons like this who pretend to know anything about bdsm put out trash like this, and that's what people see and think it's normal bdsm. This is right up there with the level of garbage of 50 shades of grey.
Let's list all of the uncle's crimes that he never gets charged with. False imprisonment of a minor, grooming, rape, rape of a minor, incest, pedophilia, just to name a few. Nothing ever happens. He just goes to therapy. I mean, the fucking trash put his crimes on display for the fucking world to see through many nude photos of his nephew and no one batted an eye because, ~art~?
The Dom really isn't any better. Every single play is a punishment? What? That's not bdsm. He knew something wasn't right with the sub and his master, knew from the get go that the sub was childishly ignorant and just full on took advantage of that. Might as well have been rape as well.
This isn't a good story.
I really wished that this author wouldn't pump out the same exact plot as all the others. (Of course they will)
I want this alpha to lose his beta to the other guy. I want the beta to be swept up and healed by the other guy, and the alpha to regain his memories all too late and suffer for the trash human being he is.
Losing your memories is no excuse to hurt someone else. It's basic human understanding to realize that the beta is probably going through some shit too, and to be kind to him because of that. Instead this alpha's default setting is self centered asshole.
You think YOURE disoriented? Imagine how your partner is feeling.
This is a story about groomed Guilt.
Spoilers ahead.

He was raised to hate his omega self, got a surgery to get rid of it, but then it came back. Just as it comes back, his pedestal older alpha brother breaks off an arranged marriage to be with his male omega lover. The MC cannot understand why his brother would do this "disgusting" thing and says some harsh words to him as his brother runs away to be with his omega. Tragedy strikes and the two run away die. Right at this time is when the MC gets his first heat.
He already hates himself for what he is, but he can't stop his instincts or feelings. All the more adding fuel to his guilt fire. Then his brother's best friend (another alpha who never confessed his feelings to his brother) finds out about the MCs hidden AO relationship. He knew what the MC said to his brother before he died, and can't forgive him for his hypocrisy. He proceeds to blackmail and guilt the MC into rape and a 10 year long abusive relationship.
Father's company goes through bankruptcy and commits suicide and possibly kills his mother in the process. (Don't know if she recovered) All of this happened before the MC graduated highschool.
The MCs entire life was nothing but trauma. The only bit of happiness he has ever had was with the ML but even that ended in more trauma. He is having nothing but trauma responses.
For those saying he's trash, dumb, low IQ, I think you're all the ones with low IQs.
We'll see how the story goes from here. It could be excellent, it could easily turn into a dumpster fire.
There really is nothing to this plot. Did they introduce that one guy just to show the alpha is ruthless, and just to say he's going to die because of his pheromones? He killed the man for some unknown reason (*something* about money) and that was that. Guy was there for like, 5 panels.
Omega is suicidal. Doesn't ever develop past that point. He's still hating everything. He is completely and utterly powerless in this relationship too. I'm not even sure you could call it a relationship either.
There is just nothing to this plot. It's not terrible, but it's not good either.
Like someone had an idea, jotted it down, and that's what we got. Not the expanded upon idea.










I noticed that a few chapters seem to be missing half of their content so I stopped reading and came to see if it was only like a panel or something and if anyone had said anything in the comments. Then I read the comments about a shitty ending an no proper BDSM representation (fucking SHOCKER, amIright?). I think I'll go ahead and end this here at chapter 13
Dear artists, BDSM is all about consent and trust. Can we PLEASE fucking get some?
