LMAOOOOOOO AINT NO WAY THEY USED AN ELECTRICAL CORD!!! that shit made me actually laugh, i wasn’t even focused on the smut anymore i’m just imagining them unplugging a toaster in the heat of the moment n bein like “this’ll work” ꉂꉂ◟(˃ꇴ˂)༡
very typical “bullied mc gets strong” with a harem. i’m glad there are other characters (like that Hawks lookin dude, who also lowkey looks like a pimp) who are there to guide the MC because his naive ass would’ve gotten scammed many times over.
i hate the harem lmao. it’s so overused and boring. people can party together n not be in a relationship, there is no need to enforce the stereotypes of “haha strong man gets bitches” and “men and women can’t be friends/party members bc *obviously* they’re going to develop feelings,” dawg what? spice it up. friendship posse of two lesbians and an demi/ace mc, who are an amazing party. i’m all for poly endings but w these it’s never actually poly. it’s just “competition” between the harem members for the affection of the MC, and he usually “picks one.” (づ￣ ³￣)づ
what the fuck is this? i couldn’t finish even 2 chapters, and like- i’ve read some fucked shit. but painting this semi realistic “closeted queer” experience only for the stupid fucking, no good, manipulative, selfish, cunt of a seme to out him? furthermore, the sex scene didn’t feel- consensual.. because it really wasn’t. man’s was coerced into havin sex, which.. is r^pe? or at the VERY LEAST s*xual ass*ult.
the art is lovely, but the story?? better off just looking at panels from the story w/o text. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
when i was around the ukes age.. i think having a disgustingly young uke didn’t bother me (lowkey conditioned to accept it) but now that i’m an adult i look at that age and cringe. 15? my god.. i look at a real 15 year old human n im like “oh shit i was that young once. how the fuck could anyone sexualize someone this age?” fiction is obviously a form of escapism, however, this kinda normalizes very real and very disgusting behaviors.
go feral for omegaverses, im all for it, but can both sides PLEASE be the age of consent? i mean shit- even in Japan the age of consent got raised, right (albeit to 16)? even if they have this “healthy” “happy” relationship, this kid has no one. no support system aside from his partner. it’s giving pricilla presley, or the “baby groupies” from the 70s-80s.
Σ( ￣□￣||)
this isn’t even a fun time. at no point during this read was i like “they’re going to have a happy ending” because this is purely tragedy. no real romance (just trauma-bonding), and the only thing happening is psychologically torturing the MC. i don’t know what i was expecting, maybe some revenge but a happy ending?
nah, just trauma. deaths over n over n over. no one is safe (legit no one, aside from the MCs). there is not a single form of respite for the MC. she has no one. even if blondie saves her, whats the point? not only is she FUCKED mentally, if she ever had a child that kid would also be fucked.
I swear, her family was a fairy/spirit of some kind, (bc the “otherworldly” beauty n regressions). i wonder if her ancestor broke some horrible taboo n that’s why she’s doomed to repeat her life. (づ￣ ³￣)づ
hot on the outside (smut, art) and kinda cold and unpalatable on the inside (clusterfuck plot). couque deserves better, and hu’s relationship w berry(?) confused the fuck outta me lol. however, i think my biggest gripe, which i’ve seen others bring up, is pacing. it felt like a four car pile up of plot.
(￣∇￣")
the plot was complex, i went into this expecting a tic tac toe level plot but ended up with chess. tbh i’m still not 100% sure what happened. it was just- one hurdle after another and then FINALLY together.
imo some of the (early) sex scenes felt really- forced. “oh the uke is in love with snake dude” ok but he can still feel uncomfortable. the language barriers between them made consent (or dissent) pretty much impossible. did the uke want to give amnesiac danger noodle a handjob? did he have a choice? what about the uke repeatedly saying no before their first time? coercion isn’t consent.
it just rubbed me the wrong way, idk. (づ￣ ³￣)づ
the family trees ain’t even two trees at this point. the Hapsburgs are quaking in their incest ridden boots. I realize this is fiction but what a silly plot point. the incest wasn’t even all that relevant to the plot. if the seme’s mom was NOT THE UKES AUNT, then literally no problem. auntie incest wasn’t even a key character. it’s not just an “arranged marriage” between powerful medium families (which is easy af to write, and doesn’t change much of the plot at all) this author said.. nah nah let’s just just come full circle. these guys are first cousins- FIRST. after generations of first cousins getting married i’m starting to think this- “hearing the voice of god” is just a manifestation of a hereditary mental disorder potentially caused by all this DAMN COUSIN-FUCKIN (￣∇￣")
obviously an author can write whatever they wish- but sometimes i feel some authors needed to have a moment. a moment to ask themselves instead of could i, *should* i write this?
but what do i know? lol (づ￣ ³￣)づ
teens- even in an omegaverse setting shouldn’t be havin kids lol. are condoms just- nonexistent in this world? birth control? an IUD? any other type of contraceptive? the “dumb” omega can barely graduate high school, what is he gonna do? stay home n raise the kid? HE IS A KID. i’m not saying accidents don’t happen. i’m not sayin that teen parents can’t make amazing parents, IM JUST SAYIN TWO TEENS WHO CANT EVEN DRINK SHOULDN'T BE HAVIN KIDS, and should be taking PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES against *pregnancy*. have as much fun as you want ig, but a child is something completely different. #－.－)
also the plot in general is mid at best and trash at worse. the author flippantly includes a gang r*pe for no reason, and it is literally never addressed again. no trauma, no actual repercussions, dude literally got gang r*ped n was immediately down to pound. didn’t even seem all that bothered and by the next scene he didn’t have a care in the world. girl, what? what typa plot is this?? (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
this “dumb” omega isn’t dumb i genuinely think he has a cognitive disability. you cannot be that dense and gullible and be neurotypical. (づ￣ ³￣)づ
the side story was ass- big bro was verbally, sexually, and physically abused/assaulted REPEATEDLY throughout the story. omegaverses w incest make no sense, most humans have a natural repulsion towards those who were raised w them (Westermarck effect). FURTHERMORE because they share parents their genes/pheromones would be so closely related that they probably wouldn’t even affect each other. big bro deserves better, not an abusive shitbag alpha (idc that he’s changed, he’s deadass abused his partner). also this might be a bridge too far but incest-asshat should trip on a knife or maybe off a cliff. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
he drugged her? i don’t care if it was “with her best interests in mind” HE DRUGGED HER- and moments before she hit the floor unconscious- he professes his love?? what the fuck?? go fuck yourself bud. she’s an incredibly intelligent woman surely you could just- TELL HER WHAT THE FUCK IS GOIN ON and she could understand. and then she’s immediately like “oh well- he does need my help :3 imma take this stupid necklace as collateral” BABE HE ROOFIED YOU
in chapter two when ryu and masamune were eating desserts and masamune brings out the can of whipped cream and ryu goes feral for it I immediately think of whippets lol. nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is incredibly effective as a propellant and pressurizing agent, but it can also (unfortunately) get you high and is easily accessible (in small quantities). imagining ryu/masamune taking whippets makes me *exhale/laugh through my nose.*
this goes without saying, BUT.. don’t abuse nitrous oxide folks. it’s shit for you, and shit for the environment, a high isn’t worth your health.
╮(￣▽￣)╭
I cringe n basically skip kiyomori/kurehas relationship arc because- that bird raised him. it’s not a “kiyo was raised by other birds and then fell in love with kureha-“ nah that’s just straight up grooming, yeah? i hate that the switch couple is the most.. sus in terms of the basis of their relationship because that’s such a fun concept.
n’ i know the retort is basically “tHiS iS bL” or “ThIs IsNt ThAt BaD bC fIcTiOn” but let’s put this into perspective- if a child is raised under the impression that his adoptive “parent” will eventually be his lover, and that his adoptive “parent” NEEDS to have sex with this him at some point, is that not grooming? what does a child know? especially some kid born long before the internet. it’s a wild concept to me lol.
but such is the way of indulging in BL (￣∇￣")
Is it the same kinda plot found in dozens of other comics? yeah.
But the MC is cute and the plot is simple but entertaining. obviously she’s gonna get pampered and loved at her in-laws estate, as child MCs tend to be with this plot line, and it’s cute. a good brain cleanser, ya know? (づ￣ ³￣)づ
it reminds me of the phase most young artists have. i 100% had a phase like this growing up. the anatomy isn’t quite figured out and the faces are stiff and don’t quite match their heads. but it’s not just that, this art style just feels disingenuous. i saw a comment about this artist, allegedly, using pre-made art and tbh that makes sense. maybe that’s part of the problem
(〜￣△￣)〜 sucks that the story is boring too, a cool concept but poorly executed.
can you imagine the ecological effects of making cats locally extinct?? no predator means increased rodent populations, assuming relatively low-quality hygiene, disease probably spreads easily. rodents could carry/spread disease outbreaks further and expose people to new diseases. Rodents also chew/eat various materials and could threaten the structural integrity of buildings/ships. there’s also economic ramifications as rodents often eat/soil products/produce.
cats existed in that empire for a reason, and tbh even if they try reaaaaaaally hard, you’re not going to be able to eradicate cats. they’re hella good at repopulating lol. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
the ML is supposedly this high ranking IT fuckwad and he listened to RUMORS about his wife? no confirmed facts? no investigation? never even met the woman and immediately doused her in water?? he’s got the mental capacity of a 13 year old boy. i could tell this man “invest all ur money in *utter dogshit*” and if it was convincing enough he’d do it. the FL deserves better.
young Alfaes is the biggest asswipe of the series so far, and imo it’s kinda weird that he fell in love with someone who has the brain capacity of a child.
How has he changed? torturing yourself with guilt is not Growth*
bro why tf couldn’t i :,) thank you
time continuing to pass after centuries is crazy. and they’re just chillin, and probably STILL producing children, right? would this forest just *produce* children every so often? every few decades an exceptional person would emerge from the fairy forest? isn’t that so cool? ヾ(☆▽☆)
