I read this after watching the movie, so my opinion might be influenced by the adaptation. However, as in most cases, from Anna Karenina to Harry Potter, written words are just inherently stronger than pictures. I adored the movie but loved the manga. The two imperfect main characters were far from being heroes, but were so much more lovable exactly because of that!
There is a movie? What's the name?
Oh, come on! Give us the rest. And fu** you Skyler. I know you're young and all, but you hurt Cirrus by exploiting his weakness, which he entrusted you with. That was unforgivably low. I'm sorry for what your first love did to you, but you don't deserve Cirrus and, honestly, I want Cirrus to find happiness with someone else and I want you to regret this for the rest of your life.
LOSER alert
You clearly didn’t read or understand the story at all. Also a lot of you seem to forget how cirrus was in the beginning like he literally black mailed him and sa’d him multiple times. They both did wrong things. I don’t know why you’re just putting the blame on one. Just by the way you’re talking you seem young so you might not really understand the story.
i meant to dislike oops
As if Cirrus didn't complete effed up Skyler at the start. In the end, they're both just teenagers that need proper help. Both of them have faults so it seems biased that you're only blaming one of them
Don't let rabid litc (skylar) stans intimidate you into thinking you're misreading the story. You're right and they simply couldn't give a fck about Cirrus
You sound really immature and didn’t understand the story. They both did wrong things and hurt each other. Cirrus in the beginning sexually assaulted and blackmailed skyler let’s not forget that.
Sorry I commented that twice but also not really sorry
I'm not bothered by them. Cirrus trusted Skler and revealed his Achilles heel to him and Skyler threw it at his face the first chance he got. Nothing can justify that.
Unbothered queen lmao and yep, he used it against him (and most people didn't even notice he even doubted his csa one time when he had a panic attack, so even if it was irrational the author made sure to add that). I hope people irl don't let guys who do that to them in their life because it's beyond insensitive and vile
Shut up bitch
Eat shit loser!
Exactly! If someone did this in real life, it would be the reddest flag signaling 'unworthy of trust.' If you can't be vulnerable with your partner, what's the point of love at all?
Do you know what also be a red flag blackmailing and sexually assaulting your partner.
Suck my dick
I agree with what youre saying but saying that cirrus sa'ed skylar is a reach ....
fym a reach i love cirrus to death but he DID sa him. kissed him in public, in front of many other people and his step mom without skylar's consent. that's sa. he also sa'd him again in chapter 82 when skylar rejected his kiss. cirrus is my fav but come on, he did a lot of shitty things
Well, i didn't really consider kissing sa until now but yeah if you say so. Im just biased i guess, also cause forced kisses are so so common everywhere so i just thought it was normal.. even irl
I don't do small favors.
It is, you can even report it if someone forcibly kisses you and reported to the police. Also he didn’t just do that. He also touched him and gave him a hickey.
Yes and he apologised for that in the same chapter which is ch 82.
Anyway, what OP has to understand is this: neither Cirrus or Skylar is a saint. They both have flaws that’s the main purpose of this whole story to see them grow and become better together.
I understand that what irked OP was Skylar’s very cruel way to return back by lying and hitting exactly where Cirrus hurt the most with his harsh words. That’s because that’s Skylar’s defensive mechanism since he was betrayed in the past by someone he cared about (Minwoo). So I get the frustration with that BUT again they are both wrong and getting better.
100% agree with you I’m just saying this because I don’t know why they’re just putting the blame on Skyler and not admitting what cirrus did as sexual assault and wrong.
I think because it’s subjective.
Some people tend to give more importance to some actions rather than other actions.
For instance with Cirrus we talked about forced kisses and okay the blackmail but maybe for some this isn’t so important. I mean it’s true that a forced kiss is sexual harassment/assault whatever u wanna call it but it’s still a kiss dunno if I make myself understood. Something “passable”. Especially considering that Cirrus didn’t know Skylar’s background with kisses and the Minwoo’s incident.
While for Skylar the scene the OP talks about is like this “how could Skylar even DOUBT for a second the vulnerable moment Cirrus shared with him about that one time his teacher molested him?!”
Well I have the answer for that: because Skylar has trust issues which find answer in his past. Simple. So he questioned EVERYTHING (even some sensitive topics Cirrus shared).
To someone from the outside that might irk more than some forced kisses I dunno again it’s the subjective of the reader. Some readers put more weight into some things rather than others.
What a unique dynamic they have—functionally dysfunctional! I really enjoy stories like this that take the time to show, rather than just tell, the gradual formation of love between characters. It makes the story so much more gripping and enjoyable!
I wanted to see more of the relationship between Yuri and his sister, as well as the friendship between Yuri and Yohan. I also like to imagine that Yuri would eventually become less toxic but still lovable, as he continues to receive Sunwoo's love and attention.
Breathtaking story, memorable and unique characters, meaningful angst, and believable love!
This is one of the absolute best stories here, yet it only has an 8.2 rating! A perfect example of why ratings can be meaningless. Make your own choices, kids—don’t let the mediocrity of the majority's taste steer you wrong (and this applies to more than just manga selection)!
What a wasted opportunity to create a versatile couple! And what a turn-off that MC's reason to refuse his lover's offer of switching was that "I want to continue seeing a tough guy under me". Ugh...! The story was okay overall and I loved the black hair guy's personality and physics but it had the potential to be much better than this.
Honestly, if it’s something he really wanted I’m sure he would switch, but he made it as an offhanded comment not something he really wanted.
I'm going to convince myself that this is true, makes the story much better :)
i think kuroi just likes bottoming lmao. when akabane says whoever is topping shirakaba must be having a hard time, kuroi, with like zero hesitation, is like "i'm the bottom tho".
The falling in love part seemed rushed. Out of nowhere, they were suddenly "in love"! I would have been okay with them lusting after each other and then gradually falling in love, but the plot jumped to the love phase illogically and clumsily. That killed the enjoyment for me.
Didn’t mean to like
Noted :)
Some people you reach out for and catch feelings for very fast, especially when you see each other often in a short period of time, don’t know why but it happens for me. Whether it’s infatuation or attachment, not everyone needs time to feel that they’ve fallen in love. Many couples will tell you that it was love at first sight.
To be completely honest, I wanted to see them intimate with each other and I wanted to see what happens with Jiwook and the psychopath. Allin all, nice work but I prefer "mad dog" to this.
