The second couple confused me? There wasn’t a lot of context as much for the first couple and their relationship didn’t make too much sense to me especially after that short of them on the phone. I would totally read an analysis on them and their complexity lol but just reading it made me confused and not too into it

It was cute! The character designs were peak and the setting was awesome as well! The plot had issues tho T^T like ao being full traumatized made a lot of sense! I don’t agree though with asuka apologizing to the gang? Like I understand he had to do it in a way but we should have gotten a bit more emotional hate from him because they literally beat up aos father, trashed the restaurant, kidnapped ao, tried to rape him, threatened to traffic ao AND HIS LITTLE SISTERS and everyone is just like brushing that off? There just seemed to not be enough emotional depth to the situation revolving gangs. It’s understandable tho for a short story but I think if your doing a short story then don’t put such a heavy conflict in there :(
I also died at the “I’m not gay” and then proceeds to have gay sex. Bl authors please realize that bisexuality, pansexuality, unlabeled, or just queer exists ToT

I will probably get jumped for this but while I loved the story and it kept me constantly curious the romance between the two wasn’t there to me. I was excited bc it had plot and the comments made it seem like there was a lot of tension but I didn’t get any of that! Maybe it’s the autism but like it just seemed like the mc was forced into this relationship bro didn’t give any consent to 90% of the things involved and the top didn’t give much emotion except possessive and creepy while mc was lowkey confusing when it came to his his conflict. Everyone is saying mc was into the guy but idk I can’t pinpoint exactly where except for the two moments of him missing him and him crying and then them fucking. I guess I just could really feel the romance and tension that everyone was talking about which was disappointing T^T

I’ve seen quite a lot of comments talk about how the novel is more descriptive when it came to the characters so I’m thinking maybe the art just didn’t quite relay that same effect for a lot of people like the art just didn’t come across as very emotional to me, both characters just had the same expression the entire time and it made it wayyy harder to understand anything going on with them development wise which when writing it can be easier to express complex characters and their thoughts and feelings. I’m debating trying it out bc I think it’s long but I’m tempted bc the story was gooddddd
This story was weird but I somehow binged and become invested there wasn’t much emotion going on in the emotional scenes, the servants were weird as hell, and some other scenes threw me off so bad where they were just weird scenes or the dialogue seemed awkward. There was some hot scenes tho and Arthur was prettyyy so it wasn’t like the worst read ever because it was porn and you should never really expect a+ plot from porn lol
