chugga chugga choo choo's activites

Bracing myself for the next chapter lol. Isn’t it ending in like 3 chapters?? is the author gonna end the story with a SA scene???!! At least make them both strip that last dialogue actually gave me whiplash

I do love how hard these big strong yaoi guys fall when they have a slight cough lmaooo

Weak victorian child headassery

Prefacing this with I have not read this. Now for the rest of the people who weren’t filtered out.

Sometimes it feels like you people are so obsessed with consuming yaoi content that it’s like those people in idiocracy who sit and watch tv all day lol. This author has previously written fucked up stories, with more rape than plot, and has clearly settled in their niche. So at what point will the crowd that hates SA in stories (which look! valid!!) start filtering out what they read?? Like do u just go through and expect every story to be perfectly in line with what you want lmaooo “oh no i read the leopards eating people story and people got eaten by leopards!!!”
I see valid criticisms of stories that try and paint themselves as some ultimate romance while brushing SA under the rug. But also, shounen ai tags are there for a reason. So many people cry about yaois tagged ‘smut, mature, horror, adult’ having rape in it like it’s this sudden spontaneous thing that came out of no where. So many people are fine with extreme bullying and violence and expect that, then they’re pearl clutching when a story like that has SA scenes???
Just stop reading or hate read the story just the criticism of ‘wow this is only XYZ’ is getting so stale. Like alright cool. I didn’t continue to read this because the first few chapters were completely expressionless, the sound fx were nonexistent and it felt like every panel was just filler until the rape scenes. Not my cup of tea! I’m not gonna waste my time anticipating each new chapter for something new only to get mad every time, just move on

Hate watchers and genuine fans know what they’re getting with each chapter. It’s just crazy to me how someone who dislikes the themes that are going to show up in a story, keep having the surprised pikachu face then flood the comments with ‘I can’t believe this is in here!!!’

Stfu

everyone looks like they have FAS though, and judging from the comments seems like they act like it too

I actually physically cringed when the ML pulled his little richard out to catch the falling MC, I already hate that trope of 'moment where character is saved from falling' but that actually had my face scrunching

also the way so many of these grand debt stories are over the equivalent of like.... $3000
I'm not saying that's not a lot, but in these crazy mafia loan shark enterprises you would think they'd go for the chump owing $50+ million to pimp out and not the kid of a debt owner with $3000... like you can make that stuff back in 8 months

I mean look (I'm on ch. 33) kwonwoo has started saying some concerning stuff abt just wanting to die and Dowon is still like "BUT why do I have to kiss YOU???? you wouldn't like it!! you've been saying to focus on the now for the past 20 chapters but i know you're secretly lying!"

Just the constant denial of like.. anything, not even a hug is starting to feel a little cruel Σ( ￣□￣||) lighten up dude hope he embraces the situation a bit more

I love the giant proportions of the backseat of the car they’re in lol

I wish my 5’10” ass could fit in a car sprawled out like that

not even bc of the story writing (though that’s trash too)
the MC just is so ugly too uncanny

"So, in the end, this contract is about you helping me."Ha-jin has endured relentless bull...

Tried to read this to see if it'd be funny bad because of the comments

It feels like AI I'm not gonna lie, the art style is so insanely uninspired, almost to the point where it feels like a copy of other works, and every single plot beat is increeeedibly stunted/forced

I need this author to do a spinoff with those versions of Gitae and Jihoon aggghhh I love an author that loves their characters

Also it tracks that Jihoon’s parents could’ve been hyper religious satan worshippers lol. I mean they built a highly advanced bunker because they thought the end times was near

I'm on chapter 79 and... wow.

I can't tell if the twins got what they deserved or not. Because they would kidnap and force drug sooo many people (and even killed Dooshik's ex, granted he wasn't the nicest but they made a snuff film out of him) and tried to straight up tear apart Jooha. If Dooshik/his crew were even a little late, that long haired twin straight up was gonna amputate him

But just the graphic rape scenes in chapter 79 made it reeeeeally hard to remember that.
Very... difficult read...
Idk how to feel

Eye for an eye I guess

maybe i've just been dumbing down the senses too much with some of the stories i've been reading but, the writing in this is sooooo gooooood

god i love an uke that stands up for themselves and i love that the "main couple" didn't get together initially (and i'm not talking about 2-3 chapters in, i'm on 21 and they still haven't actually done it) and the seme is a piece of shit but the uke actually calls him out for it

the nuance in the uke's emotions about letting down his "friend" and just how much he doesn't trust the seme! like good, stand by your guns dude that guy seems INSANE lol.

in a much worse story he'd just bend over backwards (literally) as soon as the seme does something nice like... i guess get him out of being sued after self defense. even if the seme victim blamed him SO MUCH

good storytelling
very good art style
the story doesn't just exist in a millenial beige high rise apartment and like.... a single cafe
the characters (besides that blonde guy i guess) don't all just wear straight off the rack at UNIQLO clothes
as a former violinist, i like how the uke is portrayed to be playing the violin, its not awkward like a lot of other executions of instrument playing
and i like that he actually enjoys sex (in the right consenting context)

There’s a true crime creator I watch (Boze vs the world) who says something great about the killers she covers. “We can be sad for the child that was failed without excusing their actions down the line”

look I know it’s not that deep but I think the author and a lot of writers can take a lot for that statement. At some point a character is written too far gone. And controversially, that’s fine. What’s not fine is them demanding a sympathy switch from the audience through all of the characters suddenly forgiving a deplorable character for their actions.

As a fucked up example there’s the Sadistic Beauty BL Side story (if i remember correctly) where at the very end the victim doesn’t forgive his abused, at all. Like not at all. Still hated him actually, but settled because he was so broken. Ofc that’s not a perfect story either, seemed like the author really tried to make the abuser look sympathetic because he was basically shitting himself in guilt over what he has done.

A different example is Warehouse, where the characters have such stockholm syndrome (one from the present abuse he faced and one from the past) that they understand how much they’re not good for each other. Despite that they do come together in the end, while the victim made it very clear that they cannot and will not EVER be able to start from scratch. What’s done is done.

I can list a bunch of other examples where a redemption arc (imo) works, like Low Tide in Twilight.

All of those were saved by really good writing too. It just seems like the author of Jinx isn’t a strong enough writer to dig herself out of this hole she’s created. I do feel bad for kid Horse Face who was abused, but ultimately it just feels like the author writing the classic trope that a lot of stories do to make an abuser look forgiving. Like she’s just going through the motions before the sudden Kim Dan forgiveness party.

Idk at the end of the day I just be yapping. I would love to be proven wrong honestly, the author is so artistically talented but good god I’ve read uglier because of strong writing. Maybe she should get a co writer for the next one lol. This story is already too far gone

Seems like I JUST missed the window to be able to yap about each chapter with everyone. Currently on s2 ch43. The sheer insanity of these two... usually I feel really bad for the meek uke (and I'm not excusing the violence inflicted on him) but the way these two characters are.... its almost turned into a soap opera for me. Good god they're both deranged perfectly for each other. I think it helps that at almost every turn sungkyun has actively reveled in every beating. Not once has he genuinely thought to escape (up to the point I'm reading anyway), its miscommunication between them in the most psychopathic way possible. These two are... just wow.

I think this is one of the better depictions of a full on psychological breakdown (in the uke's case) that I've seen in these BL stories. Both of them are in extreme psychosis just from different things, sungkyun's born from losing his parents + doing drugs and cheong-rim's from living in red mansion alone as a child, and his brothers consistently showing him he can't have anyone in his corner.

Good god, good god, good god.

9/10 I know I'm gonna wish it was longer.

this has 26 translated chaps https://snowmtl.ru/comics/goblin-bride

i CANNOT wait for season 3! i know there's 0 announcements but based on the trend of the last season this will probably come back in August...

i don't know if this is a spoiler or not but i love love love how the author seemed to take some criticism of season 1 and make it better here. ik a lot of people (including myself) were pretty annoyed that the sex scene in season 1 was a bit.... r@p3y.... reminiscent of any other standard BL where the top is just kinda doing whatever they want and the bottom has to suck it up. i would've been a bit annoyed yeah but accepted it tbh

so color me surprised when their first sex scene in season 2 had bada directly challenge doha on that!! him saying "that doesn't make it okay for you to hurt me" shot through my soul bc YES bada stick up for yourself!! and doha respects that and continues to!! even though he is horny as hell lol. also him putting his hand around bada's neck up through his shirt.... this author knows how to make some creative scenes whew

so yeah even though doha does some shady stuff i think that moment specifically is what made me much more inclined to trust that doha really cares about bada. maaaany many other MLs would just choose to keep overpowering their sub and not take into account any "no." and what also pisses me off is then the sub is just docile and takes this constant disrespect (looking at you Jinx).

my jaw dropped hearing that bada is actually the ONLY npc, what a good twist. i absolutely love this author's writing & pacing and i hope they make more stuff in the future i am addicteddddd

i gotta reread this 10 times over so i can reduce the hole in my heart now....

like all this info could've been consolidated into one chapter LOL
i didn't expect much but this is even lower somehow, which is actually getting impressive at this point
the pacing is still soooooo bad. i'll just forget about it and come back in like december lmaooo

I literally said out loud “this is so stupid” while laughing my ass off at the concept of him getting drunk from a tiny ass sip of soju
