I have a quick question do people actually like puppy dog airheaded people in real life? Like is it endearing or annoying having to take care of them and they knowingly mooch off you?
I find it cute when I see airheads, clumsy people, etc. Yet as a romantic partner, I would say that a big NO NO, it would be really troublesome to spoil and take care of them, then I would feel guilty whenever they show that their really sad because I didn't spoil them enough :/ It just sounds exhausting tbh
honestly except for the MC everyone else involved seems like despicable pieces of wealthy shit especially that seme love interest. What is the point of characters who are emotionally unavailable and treat everyone around them like trash as long as they find it amusing and pleasurable? Like who reads this and says yes these characters are so great together because it will take chapters for a heartless bastard to "fall in love" all the while treating their future love like dirt on their shoe and have all of this ignored all for the sake of comedic porn?
honestly that's what makes me so the boohoo story of i had a shitty childhood so I became a shitty person. It's literally cliched seme trope 101.My argument still stands. Horrible things happen to good people unfortunately all the time, if you become the worst version of yourself that's sadly on you how you decide to react to your trauma it doesn't give you any right to project your pain onto another person so who cares if i've read 7 chapters he's still the same as literally any other toxic masculine seme.
Wow, you just roasted this with so much accuracy. Especially the part about projecting your pain onto someone else. If you (referring to specific character) want to project your pain onto the people who actually hurt you I will back you up 100% but if you want to do that to someone who has nothing to do with it you'll never be anything but a shitty pos as far as I'm concerned.
somehow the blue haired Lee straight up annoyed me. Who takes 10 years to finally acknowledge their crushes existences in such an honestly rude and inconsiderate way and just act like that's perfectly normal. Plus our protagonist just following suit and accepting this lacking apology with the additional information that his crush is half mermaid with the calmness of hearing the weather. ummm okay?
that fact that Jiwon treated DG like absolute shit and was annoyed at the very idea of DG being clingy or having any part in Jiwon's personal or private life, yet sees no problem actively stalking DG now is actually disgusting. Has he learned honestly anything? How people continue to praise his behavior because he's your stereotypical hot "damaged goods" badboy is so gross. Jiwon deserves happiness but not with DG, but god that will never happen.
Are people praising it? I think it's sad, and the way he treated DG was in no way good but there's also learning about his side and why he did it that makes people probably go easier on him, for me it's the hope that he will explain everything to DG and apologize (cause obviously even with his excuse no one still deserves that treatment!)
Gotta also take into consideration that Jiwon DID state his intentions 100% clearly right from the beginning and it was only DG's own fan hope that made him believe everything otherwise? Ah i dunno these are just my thoughts, but i def don't think anyone should be praising Jiwons behavior? I mean the idea of someone in what i assume i college/university suddenly changing classes just to try and run into a crush...lol not realistic and def creepy.
God after reading the second chapter. This is honestly depressing as hell. Sadao deserves better than his family horrible for lying to him along with the rest of that fucked upped village when he brought to that village.I hate Tomaru because he’s one of those fake personality characters plus the pride he takes in his family’s work is sick. But what his ancestor did to Sadao’s family and that fact that there’s even a handbook and the willing acceptance of its continued practice is some superstitious country bumpkin bullshit that is disgusting and disguising itself as tradition. they should be ashamed of not proud of something so horrible they’ve likely cursed themselves but continue the curse rather than find a way to break it. Seriously the plot makes me so mad but it’s presenting itself as fluffy. What the fuck author
Hatred? That is to LAUGH sweetcheeks. You think a bully is loving and that means YOU have no issues? Everyone is trash (except for the uke) in this story and bullies someone for no reason yet you don't ask about the actual and more OBVIOUS hatred in their hearts? That's sickening and an indication of someone ACTUALLY having issues. Oops, kaythxbainow, sweetums.
you are completely right the second season makes no sense as everything was essentially resolved in the first season. To make the now very real childhood friend a love rival makes virtually no sense, the MC and him barely know each other after a 10 year absence, and from Sihoo acting as if Myunghan was nothing but an acquaintance and that's putting it lightly for last chapter of the 1st season to turn it around and now make him pursue Myunghan when it was practically indicated that Seungchan was end goal and the catalyst for Myunghan overcoming his trauma it would be a slap in the face to have Myunghan run off with Sihoo. The whole point of season 1 would be completely undone because the point of the narrative was finding closure with a side helping of resilient friendship becoming love. While the resolution of Myunghan's trauma was very lacking and made little sense from a realistic standpoint due to the ease of it being prevented years back, there was no hint that Myunghan had or would develop feelings for Sihoo cusping on romance while it was very much implied for his relationship with Seungchan. This is just an author milking a plot at this point when it is truly unnecessary.











i will never understand the appeal of having the person who bullied you and tormented you become your future love interest. like seriously it's one of the worst narrative tropes that authors consistently rely on. It perpetuates the toxic idea of someone likes you by picking on you or finding ways to "hurt" you to get their feelings across. It's such a damaging thing to keep telling people that this is aspirational. Pulling someone's pigtails so to speak doesn't mean I love you it means I don't love you enough to fully respect you. Worse this omegaverse genre is making all and every toxic trope have breeding ground within BL.
I mean, i completely agree with you, but in the case of this story i think calling the seme a "bully" is a bit extreme. If you look at the past memories of the uke, the seme was never actually mean to him (except the last time, when he threw his jacket on him... but even still, that couldve been a misunderstanding). I havent read the raws, but im assuming the whole bully thing was a concept on the uke's part. He probably couldve told the seme "No" multiple times, but didnt.
But yeah, i completely get what youre saying. I FUCKING HATE BULLIES. I REALLY DO. But in this case, i think hes less of a bully, and just someone who's mean/cocky to hide his emotions. Nothing he's said or done has actually been hurtful so ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
He threw his jacket on him because he was wet...... He was being nice
Yeah, that’s what I figured as well... but for arguments sake, I didn’t want to jump to conclusions either ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
All in all I don’t think this guys is a bully at all tbh
one instance of placing your jacket over your wet classmate well essentially calling them an eyesore is not being nice. Secondly a person doesn't to be physically bullied for it to be bullying. Our MC was bullied, he was repeatedly tripped, made fun of, targeted for his looks that fact that your excusing that because someone placed a jacket on him is ridiculous. This reaffirms my point made in the original post. People make excuses for how boys are suppose to behave when they like someone. You never hear that kind of garbage about girls because they're forced to play the role of being nice to their crush or their considered crazed or undesirable for being brutish. The double standard of how men and women are allowed to express their affection is exactly why we allow domestic violence to be an offshoot of "love hurts", no one should ever feel hurt when they are respectfully loved. I'm not jumping to conclusions, it's simply being excused and if you find this endearing that's exactly the sort of mindset that's the issue here.
*excuse my phone's typos*^
Uhhhhh where did I excuse any of his behavior? I explained that the jacket scene was hardly him bullying the other dude. Calm down
Um, actually...
I dont think he WAS "tripped" I think HE tripped. Like, if you look on the page, 10, they were already standing there...? Also, if they actually meant to trip him, wouldnt they laugh after? There was no laughter and they asked if he was "okay". When was he made fun of? When he told him to "come over when classes are over"? (Because he had no friends). When he said "i'll give you three minutes" (was probably a joke, or him saying thats how long he'd wait for him... not bullying). When exactly was he bullied for his looks?? When he said "just looking at you pisses me off"? Again, i think the seme was more talking to himself and this will probably be explained later...
All in all, i dont disagree with you. In fact, i actually agree with you and your points exactly. THERE IS A DOUBLE STANDARD. STOP ROMANTICIZING BULLYING.
But in this case, and in this particular manga, thats not whats going on (IMO).
Now, if we were talking about another manga, like say... Hidoku Shinaide or something, then I'd agree 100% handsdown
But for now, this aint it
╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Honestly in this story, I can't confirm that the seme's an actual bully yet. I think his attitude is different from our MC and that he doesn't understand why he's like that. The uke never refuse him and I felt like the seme is thinking that he likes him that's why he's following his wishes. Unlike other 'bully', he helps him when he's trouble.
