if you want a comedy BL done right with an over the top delulu seme that isn't ragebait/secondhand embarrassment death, read Be My Baby

ah yes
I read the comments
I thought I was prepared
I was not
this hits extra hard bc my spouse and I are getting old (I'm in my late 30s, we've been together for 20+ years), our kids are in their teens. The thought of being separated from my SO makes my throat close with terror and grief (thankfully at this point there's no sign of us separating for any reason other than death haha). I can only hope we, too, can be reunited on the other side.

this wasn't a terrible age gap manga
it wasn't the best story overall but it had heart
glad they waited, and also (speaking as someone who also seduced an older person when I was 17) teenagers are horny af so the part of the uke embellishing the truth to get jerked off tracked. good on the seme for having proper self control and laying down boundaries.

god this is so perfect
the fact that the uke is taller but not a stereotype (tall&buff, tall&puppy dog, tall&gentle), the masculine shorter seme
and just...taka. fuck. I'm salivating. his drive, his cute little grumpy bad boy attitude, his smiiiirrrkkkkk. top 10 seme, easily.
can we? can we talk about that one scene? picking up your taller bf with one arm and a broken hand
"this isn't going to stop me from making you cum"
HNNGGGGGG TAKA THE MAN YOU ARE
this reads like it wasn't written by a 16 year old like so many BLs. The dialogue is strong, the characters feel like they have depth, and oh the banter. cute, little tiny bit of angst but not enough that it feels stupid, seme is forceful but not rapey -- and on that note multiple times displays the self-control expected of an adult.
I normally hate love triangles, and especially when an interloper pops in after the main couple is established, and don't get me wrong taka x hina for life but Sunny is fucking cute and I want him to have his own spinoff so he can find his own love. I LOVVEEE manhwa so seeing a Korean character in a manga is like a shot to the heart. and honestly he's a sweetheart, he didn't do anything ridiculously terrible other than just fall in love with the wrong person. Taka is SO mature about it to holy shit the love and trust.
and THE ART is so gorgeous too
just, everything about this. instant fav. deserves all the stars. give me 1700 volumes.

comedy? more like anxiety
I want to kill someone, either myself or the ML
I fucking hate hate hate that after all of what the ML put the MC through he's gonna end up with him
this is def for those people who think a chasing arc is enough for years of bullshit (which is fine if you like that kind of story but it's not for me)
ig it was funny to see the ML freaking out but it was more just secondhand embarrassment (one of the major reasons for my homicidal urges atm) bc he's so fucking pathetic in literally every way
definitely dropping this

I feel like I've read 1000 BLs just like Junwoo x Taesan but this person actually wrote it realistically rather than romanticizing it like the stories where they're the main couple
I'm a bit torn I'll be honest. I like that it's dark and twisted but also it seems a bit much for a high school setting lol

I'm sure the tatted guy is some kind of bastard bc they're setting him up to be TOO nice (compared to everyone else anyway) but holy shit he's my type

the story's okay, it's not anything to write home about
but I can't help but laugh at how it's another BL where PTSD and STDs don't exist

InvoluntarilyConscious answered question about question
I don't think it's for any one of us to have a public opinion on someone else's circumstances if someone chooses to take their own life after it, that's their choice. it's sad, and of course we want to try to prevent it, but there's a limit to how much external factors can change someone's mind ever, on anything. if they themselves have decided tha......

I stopped reading at ch92 and by these comments I ain't picking it back up again
the og couple was iffy enough but not terrible by BL standards
the side couple was just rape-to-love and I hate both of them
and this is just pure bullshit
idk why the author decided to plumb the depths of bad storytelling as the story went on but go off ig...

*rubs temples* ngl I might drop this at this point
they didn't break up after a month+ of iksu being cold and distant and sunbae **knowing** that iksu doesn't like him. they didn't break up after iksu screamed in his face after the attempted kiss.
if the bf (sunbae) gets mad about this then he's fucking stupid bc clearly what he just walked in on was his bf (iksu) getting mad about the childhood best friend, who he (sunbae) told iksu to stop seeing which iksu agreed to and did it, getting mad bc the best friend kissed him. that sounds like an entirely reasonable response. Sure, iksu didn't tell sunbae it happened but if it was forced/not wanted (which it clearly was) and iksu is visibly getting mad (calling him a piece of shit and a motherfucker) then that's as appropriate an interaction as it can be given the situation. If I found out my SO had had a kiss forced on them by someone they already were not in contact with I'd be mad at the person but not my SO cuz it's not like it's their fault.
if **this** is the catalyst for them breaking up it's going to be so stupid, but ig that would be in line with how stupid their relationship was to begin with
honestly I hate iksu and sunbae, they deserve each other. Dohun, just let them go and find yourself a boyfriend who appreciates you. (tho don't get me wrong forcing a kiss on someone is a dick move but by BL standards that's a negligible offense)

re-re-re-reading lol
this is such a masterpiece
it's so realistic in a way that really gives it heart and soul, it's maturely written. the way they misunderstand each other at first, it's not the kind of stupid misunderstand you see in a lot of these comics, it's something that happens when you're first getting to know someone you're really interested in, clashes in personality do happen, and you have to learn how to navigate that and that's exactly what they do
even the office politics part, it's detailed yes but the fact that it's detailed makes it immersive. I like that Seunghyun didn't make it in at first, and that it wasn't conveniently solved, that Jongchan might be someone in a high position but he got there with hard work and he's not a CEO or a chaebol so he can't just pull some strings and fix it all immediately
and good lord the spice

gaahhh fucckkk why is everyone in this manhwa so fucking hoooottttt

I SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THE NOTIF
also hooooolllyyyyy sshiiittttt the art in this chapter is like almost Pearl Boy good
but also? his dick is like literally a foot long
even by manhwa standards that's too big lmao
