Yamamoto-sensei really knows how to start a story interesting... and then she stretches it out and starts making endless chapters of nothing, and then always introduces a second or even a third couple and redirects the attention away from the main couple and any possible plot, she also starts making extra and unnecessary chapters.
I don't know, I feel her mangas are way too long, or better say, she doesn't know how to handle long mangas, she should end them earlier rather than later, and have some faster character development so the story moves. I don't know, I always lose interest at some point.

So... I found too many flaws in the story, the characters, and the whole thing.
The kid never grew up not even a little bit, as if the story had taken place in three months.
Some "plots" were excessively elaborated for the ending they got.
Villains were villains just for the sake of it, the reasons were too shallow.
You tell me whatever you want but Estelle and Kaizen doesn't make a good couple, and they were never a couple tbh.
The ending was atrocious, empty, senseless and with nothing to look forward to.
╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ This feels like that saborless tea you've let sit for too long and is no longer warm, it's not cold either, it's just there not causing an impact of any kind.

RIGHT!! HAHA!! Also, in any case, we were never given a REAL, LOGICAL explanation what the heck she was doing in that mountain. Like, gathering people, sure, but why was she alone? Why was none of the "people she gathered" with her? Why was everyone able to get to court but her???
All that scene was so stupid, the drowining, the chocking, the "I should be careful, I shouldn't call to these strangers" hahahah come on! Logic??? Where???

Man! The curiosity got the best of me, and despite reading the comments I went and... well I didn't read it, I started, then cringed, skipped most of the chapter then read the end.
And, ok, shotacon/bara aside, cuz I hate both tropes XD the drawing is awful, proportions are abysmal, personalities are a mess, pace, nonexistent.
In short, this is not a good manga, regardless of the rape and the uke/seme appearance, it's a disaster.
I read one comment that said "I'll let this marinate" like, let's better marinate the Uke, see if he looks older a little bit more hahahaha.

So I dropped this thing many many years ago, but a friend of mine shared the "forever old kid" seme ,and I couldn't believe it, so I came here, picked the last two chapters and saw everything is still the same, the story is boring and the characters are plain as fuck, and now Mingwa will justify the toxic fucker with a sad background?? XD nah, I'm leaving again, I just wanted to see the old face kid in the picture. That's an ugly kid hahahaha.

Somehow this manga started REALLY GOOD, then we got the "author never getting over Yuki" and then everything started going south, people were angry, Ue and Mafuyu despite going out felt strangely apart, as if the author was never convinced of giving Mafuyu to Ue. Then there's semi-rape, forced sex, unattended feelings, and the band "Given" WHICH IS THE NAME OF THE FUCKING MANGA is never really the center of the story.
I didn't like the second half of the manga and the ending feels sooooo anticlimactic.

I'm so tired of Korean unable to make any type of variety with their protagonist, there's always one, two or ALL of them unnecessarily bloated, muscles that look like balloons. But what I hate the most is musclesxmuscles, I've hated bara since I was young, I never thought Koreans would make their norm.
Dropped this shit.

He's doing physical labour tho. Like, I hate when they're muscular for literally no reason, and even canonically unathletic and then have a defined six pack. That's goofy af.
Genuinely had to stop reading one once because the way the bodies were drawn was so irritating to me.
But ultimately the target audience of these manhwas tends to drool over muscles, so your words will fall on deaf ears.
imo there's a decent number of good BL without exaggerated abs, but you have to be willing to look for it.

Dude you don't get those abs by doing manual jobs, those are trained, refined abs, and they make it look like they just born with them XD, and then appears the seme, bigger and more bloated, they're like Dragon Ball Z, no matter how strong Goku was, there was always a stronger one, so I know as soon as the uke shows with big muscles I know the seme will be gigantic and entirely unattractive.
I don't care if it falls on deaf ears, I don't say this stuff for the people who likes it, but for the ones that don't.
I am willing to look for stuff, but I have less and less hope whenever is a manhwa. This, for example, I thought, oh omegaverse, there's a high chance of a slim uke, even if they draw the seme like a walking peanuts allergy explosion, fine.
Then I open it, and bam! Michelin 1 and Super Michelin, plus the other seme Michelin ultra power 3000. Predictable and boring XD

YES! THANK YOU!!! THAT TOO
Like!!! Is everyone's fetiche a super humongous dick??? whyy???? And it's not your regular "big dick" is a thibg that's bigger and thicker than some of the uke's arms.
And lately, every fucking manhwa is like thay, I can't find manga or manhua in here without actively search for it, it's filled with manhwa everywhere and all the covers look the same, with the same topic "abuse me bloated seme with your leg dick"
like come on!! Manga used to mean more than just a parade of kinks!
.... Sorry I poured everything I've been holding for a while hahahaha

it’s am endless cycle of same face, same skin tone, same 5% body fat build, same broad shoulder tiny waist proportions, same elephant dick, etc. etc. like wtf is my office worker doing with bodybuilder-on-a-cut physique and a third leg that barely fits down his slacks LMFAO
it’s so funny. everyone wants the belly bulge, but no one actually wants to make bottoms small and skinny enough that it’s realistic. so instead we get x-ray cross sections where the dick takes up 40% of the area, as if there’s no organs. everyone wants big pecs, but no one wants to add actual body fat. so they have 14 pack abs with d-cups on top and end up looking like you photoshopped boobs on them.
it’s so repetitive that we started actually caring about the plot of these BLs

HAHAHAHAHA duuuuuude the boobs!!! That's a major no-no for me. I don't mind men's pecs if they're built for it, but some of them are borderline boobs, like, author you don't want pecs, you're just thirsting for boobs, pecs don't look like that, don't move like that, DON'TSQUEEZE like that hahaha. Or, as you say, they might look like that IF THERE'S FAT!
I agree with you 100%

I used to love this mangaka because I feel she writes good characters and different from the classic pairs... but I just read two chapters of this thing and I feel she's applying the Minhwa formula and is making a milder "Jinx", sports seme being asshole and irrational, being a prick just for the sake of it.
Without spoilers, does this get better? Or is the seme going to be an asshole through and through?

Dude I read this when I was 25 or something, I'm 38 now and I just remembered it this Monday and searched "what happened to Love Pistols?" THEN AN UPDATE!!! Hahahahahahaa seems too good to be true, but I want the first couple to have kids, come on!!! I was here for them, I still am

I just reread this almost whole thing very recently since I missed the story & even break down which chapters with which characters in it so I'll able to track them easier since I'm so forgetful and don't want to reread everything for every update. Lucky for you for an update as soon as you searched for them. ;)

Yeah it's so much confusing, especially the recent updates (including the latest chapters) so I made it organized. You can check it out (I made it visible to others on manga note section).
I plan to do this as well for Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai but each chapters are too long so I haven't got any energy to re-read everything yet and so I somehow pause reading the recent updates.
I tried, but I dislike Mu'er way too much, and this thing Curtis is turning into is weird. I mean, I never liked his possessiveness, but at least it made sense, and at least he was consistent. Mu'er feels like a consolation prize everyone has agreed to treat like a 1st place prize.
I sustain it doesn't work with 4 mates, it was already extremely messy with three, now you can clearly feel how they need to take one out of focus to make it "work"... or at least not fall apart.
I think... after 5 years?? 6??? I don't even remember when I started reading this, but I'm finally ready to drop itGoodbyeye guys, this was it for me. ╥﹏╥
