Can someone explain what exactly "Mr. Blue BL Short Stories" is? I'm curious about how these stories are all tied together with different artists. It's exquisitely interesting.
I first read this in middle school!! It's way shorter than I remember but also WAY cuter the nostalgia is hitting HARD.
Yk its bad when TikTok just isn’t recommending anything that quite tickles my pickle…. so i revisit something i read back in 2020!!! and yk what this shit is so peak i dont even care
i remember reading this on a different site 10 years ago! this story was my intro to webtoon/manhwa. i went to the author's twitter and their last update was in 2019 and they haven't had any new work since... i hope they're doing ok...
So I tried to find out more and...
1. The author mentioned side stories for the last time in late 2017/early 2018. Their last actual twt was about the publishing of the Italian(?) Translation, the rest are retwts. They only said something along the lines of "I'll be preparing! Wait for the side stories!"
2. The author was VERY passionate about the L3zhin movement from 2018. L3zhin was exposed for shady practices (such as having blacklisted and exploited authors) and a series of protests followed, with some authors taking breaks. The author talked about being at protests, retwted hundreds of twts about unions/orgs, and even drunk posted about the movement. From 2018 to 2019 the author retwted about the movement, with nothing about the side stories being mentioned. They never mentioned anything about other stories or the side stories since. Makes me think they might have protested by not uploading anything. This is me speculating though.
3. Since 2019 the author has not been active online or at least not active on twt. No statement why and no updates. I can't tell what happened to them either, as it seems not even Korean readers know about their whereabouts. There were updates to the movement in 2020 but those updates weren't retwted, making me think that the author had life events happened that have taken their time up. Either they are now working an average 9-5, working under a new name (they were extremely harsh during the movement and that could've made them change pen names to publish elsewhere), or are just no longer around for personal reasons (let's hope the author is in good health). Ppl also left comments as recently as early 2025, with no response from the author, so they don't seem to be checking the account.
My hope is that the author may return one day to either give an update on themselves, release a new story, or release the side stories. I think they're a great artist and storyteller, so it would be a shame to never hear from them again. But realistically, with zero updates since 2019 and even Korean readers having no info, it seems the author is not going to return to give the side stories. ┗( T﹏T )┛
idk if it’s just the first chapters that have bad writing or why people like this so much but i can’t get past ch14 it’s sooooo boring it feels like ur witnessing someone’s roleplay on twitter idk. literally just this:
(them in a suggestive scenario)
vampire guy: “ur so cute”
bottom: “s-stop”
vampire: *bites him*
and then they bang
and it keeps going for the longest time omfg i got tired of it sorry im sure it has potential but it didn’t immediately hook me so bye
due to the number of illegal readers and lack of people purchasing these chapters, authors are struggling to make ends meet and keep up with creating these stories. as a result, many stories are being cut short and given rushed endings.
to support these authors and keep the BL community alive, you are strongly encouraged to purchase chapters from the official sites.
Bro what is going on it keeps kicking me out
This is off-topic but I just need to know. Do you guys pronounce Mangago as “Man-gago” or “Manga-go?”
hi omg I’ve been wanting to read this forever cus the art but haven’t yet, do u guys think it’s worth cus I heard the seme is just mean and trashy but is he having a redemption arc yet
Man went to jail and passed his time but it's still not enough...bro the rape wasn't necessary. He didn't abuse of the kid, jail is enough punishment...this is so wrong...Also, the parents chose to take their own life, they stopped looking for their kid...Why blame the kidnapper that much and say he deserve worst than rape When you know he took good care of the kid...so wrong... Since when rape is ok?Like for anyone...#-.-)
Alright im gonna start with the fact that I've bought every single chapter so far out of love for this author. But these 2 chapters definitely could have had a few panels removed and been completed in 1. Like I dont mean to sound rude but its starting to come off more as stretching the story for monetary purposes rather than continuing the flow of the story. The lack of progress after that huge break is frustrating. Anyone else? Feel free to disagree though
I would suck those tits until the milk comes out..... WHO SAID THAT????
Got PTSD from scammed and rammed but will stay in to see if it is any different than it

1. the official translation of the title is so stupid i wish they would just directly translate it or at least do a clever spin on it
2. the first quarter of the novel is the worst in terms of freaky stuff, oddly enough the rest of the story is like kinda wholesome??? LOL i mean that relatively of course but the top actually is so in “love” with the bottom, he’ll look scary and be like ‘shut the fuck up and stop crying or i’ll kill you’ but he’s really gently wiping the bottom’s tears lmao
3. i like the twist at the end where the top discovers something that would free the bottom of his trauma but he decides to bury it so that the bottom will stay with him forever
every fucking time this dumb ass translator pisses me off i'm fucking coming here to talk shit u are an obnoxious pos
This is def gonna get downvotes but i just want to say that this story was SO PEAK at the beginning, from the character design to the plot. But its also so watered down now. The plot is just 1 dimensional and the twinkification of sasya is kinda icky. Like at first he looked like an adult man maybe "twink" features but still an adult man. They even showed him getting a little buffer as he worked out. But now he looks so weird and KAREL does too. The anime eyes on karel this chap was so ...ugh. Plot wise, maybe this story started going downhil after the second time sasya asked why karel liked him and karel answered the same way he did the first time. Basically just for his looks. The first time i get it, they were young but his answer is the same even after the time skip? Why even bring it up again if the answer is the same?
