Yeah, that's a no from me. I checked out as soon as I saw the pedophilia. I'm surprised this comic still has so many 5 star ratings. 7.7 is too high a score for this.
Pedophily is a bad thing... that's for sure.
But what we are rating is how this manga speaks and portrays this issue. ^^
I don't think it's romanticizing it, it reminds me of Harada's ''Niichan''.
I wish I were right but turns out... nope lol
bro wdym.. this manga is gonna have the leads fuck and end up together 100%. that's the WORST portrayal of pedophilia.
This isn’t even close to Harada’s Niichan the premise is the same but you can already tell the execution is entirely different. I mean sure you have the child victim become a yandere rapist in their own right but you actually see the fall out in Harada how psychologically damaging the experience is to be sexually abused as a child and our child molester somewhat experiencing proper societal scorn and judgment in a way that makes sense and highlights the severity of how disgusting a practice it is. Here in this story we just have a child rapist gets raped by his victim and they fall in love the end. What kind of sick joke is this?
I said it reminds me of it, not that it's the same (⊙…⊙ )
The raws proved me wrong, lol
When reading most of Yaoi... it's sometimes painful to use your brain x)
(I didn't read the chapter.. only scrolled through it ^^)
That end to chapter 6 was so adorably domestic. More realistically domestic than anything else I've seen in yaoi.
I have been reading Haikyuu's manga since sometime in my college days 2013-2016. I have applauded for the boys, cried for them, and read weekly for them. I'm sad to see the seniors will be leaving the main team but I'm happy to see such stellar writing. I can't wait to read more.
I also found this chapter hard to read, but I think it's more the fault of the mangaka than the scanlators. The manga's cluttered with all the text everywhere and over images/characters. I even scanned over the creator's other works, and the other manga have the same problem.
Keep in mind, I'm not saying I'm mad or anything. Just throwing that argument out for those complaining about the scanlation.
You know? I've been noticing tha same too. I don't think it's really the scanlation fault... the mangaka tends to be quite messy. Ok, they could have choosen another font for the cheesy lines, but nevertheless it is good and the sentences per se are understandable... the problem is when you think about it as a whole
How did this story turn from a new favorite to a new dislike so quick? I'm bewildered by the MC. I read this chapter with a completely weirded out face because of him. The MC got raped by the seme like 2 days ago, and he's over here blushing about the guy. Now we're used to BL/romance story BS, but this is some next level ridiculousness.
Now see, your first mistake was questioning yaoi logic my dude. There is no extent on how fucking stupid this will get ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Just sit back and enjoy the shit show
Welp, I just spent almost the entire day (from 5 am to 8 pm excluding like 5 hours) binge reading this entire comic. And loved all of it. I ALMOST don't feel like I mismanaged my time. lol.
This story is so frustrating to read. Lauren's selfishness in the relationship and inability to be honest and talk about his feelings. And now Chip cheating. This story is insufferable, but I genuinely like the characters outside of their relationship. Plus, I've invested so much time reading that I'm in it for the long haul. Here's to hoping they break up soon.
It's only 32 chapters long.
What? So we are just 4 chapters short of the end?
Exactly. And I guess the last four chapters will be updated until tomorrow so nobody will have to wait very long for it to finish.
Wow. No Matter what everyone says: I enjoyed the story and was emotionally invested. I still hope for a happy end. And I am glad Jaqueline got hers.
٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
I enjoyed it as well. I finished reading the story months ago and since then I was basically just waiting for the shitshow that would be this comment section since it's pretty much the opposite of what most people want to read when they read BL.
However, while there are many people who react the way I expected them to, there are also many people who don't and treat it like the relationship drama that it is which is a very nice surprise (I guess uploading it all at once helped a lot).
Yeah, I agree that uploading it all at once helped with digesting the story. And, I mean, I did enjoy the story to a point. After all, I'm still here and I'm still commenting on it. And I certainly don't think it's a badly written story. But I found it very frustrating and that's ok. At the end of the day, it's a story about a couple breaking up. And yeah, the majority will react to that. But we're still all talking about it and absorbing the content. Some just receive it differently.
(For the record, I edited my OP to not seem rude, but my thoughts mostly stand).
Just binge read this series and I honestly hope the main couple don't end up together. I'm a much bigger fan of Sungho and the Sunbae than Sungho and Youngwoong. And I'm also coming around to the idea of Youngwoong and the girl (sorry, I don't remember her name). I'm worried she's a bit manipulative, but I like her confident and aggressive personality. That might be what the shy tsundere Youngwoong actually needs.
I don't know if the creator will be bold enough to do it, but ending the story with Sungho and Youngwoong finding love elsewhere would be a much more creative idea than just forcing them to fall in love.
Me too I totally agree whit your thinking and what you said! Sometimes it’s better then forcing the two that has an toxic or hateful relationships like those two it doesn’t fit together to be an possible couple (maybe later on) but right now I don’t get that vibe and whit the sunbae I think those two are great together
Oof you spilled. It’s so annoying when authors introduce a 3rd party who is clearly a better candidate for the main character but isn’t going to be with the main character. I’m really digging Sunbae and Sungho’s chemistry and to begin with I wasn’t a huge fan of the “love each other or die” plotline. But imma still read it tho lmao
whoa I agree so much with your comment
humm I like the MC and sunbae to end together, But not for Youngwoong, don't ship someone just bc he don't have anymore else. Sorry but even If the girl have a good personality I don't feel anything between them it's like the same for him and the MC ti's like forcing sorry Youngwoong but anybody suit u here !!
So, I'm only mid-way through Chapter 3, but I'm getting such a warmhearted feeling that I have to share my thoughts. I'm pretty sure that the Duke's family are going to adopt the MC, and I absolutely love it. I think this manga is the perfect example of some of my favorite isekai like Ernak, Tensei Ouji wa Daraketai, and more.
It's not about a guy being taken to another world to get his own harem of obsessive girlfriends. It's about when a guy or girl (often who's overworked or bummed out with life on Earth) finds happiness and people who love him or her in another world. It's the found family and fun times that I love in Isekai and I'm happy to find and devour this story that exemplifies that.
Just caught (and sad about it). I feel like they haven't legally adopted him but they've emotionally adopted him. They love him so much they'll cry if he's out working. I truly adore this manga.
I could accept the two daughters because it led to funny moments with the fathers, but the Guard Captain was too much.
