Whats a niche trope you like in a BL
For me its when the side seme or uke who is obsessed with the MC/ML but they end up getting their own love interest. Like the 2nd couple in Cherry Complex. (Please send me more recommendations)
Im looking for this Japanese manga all I remember its a BL about an older brother who is protective of his younger brother and he ends up with his brother's teacher
Which BL character do you hate with a passion, like if you saw them in real time you would beat them up or shoot to kill and dont give boring and obvious answers like super toxic characters (example - Jaekyung, Zhenya, Sangwoo, Non-Zero Sum Semes) Im talking about semes that are well loved like Dooshik or TJ
For me its Joowon (Its been 5 years since LoH ended) and up till today I have never hated anyone more. HATE is not even strong enough to describe how much I despise him. I also hate TJ and Dooshik, Id probably beat them up but if its Joowon, its an immediate head shot
Apologies for the spamming I just had a lot on my mind, this BL is what triggered my hatred for love triangles.
No matter what anyone says I dont think he was ever supposed to end up with Joowon, there were so many reasons to believe they wouldn't be end game but I think the author changed their mind to appeal to fans.
Joowon.stans did a lot as fandom, imagine the backlash she would get if they didn't end up together, you can say Im being delusional but why do you think BL.authors hide their identities because if fans knew who they were in real.life what do you tjink would happend. I will say it again writing a note to explain your end game is weird, it felt like she needee to justify it so that Taku shippers and Non shippers would understand, I mean people wanted Haesoo to be alone and she sent him to spain for 3 years, she did what people requested and the story was meant to end before it reached 100 chapters. So you can't tell me she didnt have to change the ending.
I tried rereading this to see if my opinion would change and it didn't. I still absolutely hate Joowon, his arrogance, his personality are just terrible for me. I still love Taku and I think he is a way more interesting character. Haesoo is an okay character. I dont hate him but I dont love him, however i also dont ship Taku and Haesoo. I dont ship Haesoo with any of them
I read up till chapter 65 and dropped it, because Joowon was so annoying that level of arrogance made him so unlikable, up till today I will never understand why people like him, my guess is that he is very similar to your average BL seme and I guess people. like whats familiar
His dialogue in chapter.65 is the reason I wanted him to lose in the end, if he was less arrogant and more humble, even though they were stepbrothers i think I could have supported them a little, but because Joowon had such a shitty personality I couldnt.
HaesooxJoowon relationship felt forced, I hated their dynamic. It was annoying. It felt like all they did was have sex and banter. Readers wont think twice when a couple has known each other for a long time because they already have a foundation, we didnt actually see the progress of how they went from hating each other to liking each other, we may have seen a few flashbacks but we didnt actually see the full journey, I mean Joowon was just as manipulative as Taku when he first met Haesoo, but you guys don't care about that because years passeed and he knows Joowon. longer. Then there were all the obstacles, it was overly dramatic.
They made this couple the underdog, most people want the underdog to win. I still believe Yeongha was going to end the story differently but in the end chose to make the majority of the fans happy.
Theres people on here saying if you thought Taku and Haesoo would end up together you lack media literacy, thats such a dumb take for me
Note: I dont ship Haesoo with either of them.
There was so much symbolism in the story to support Haesoo moving on, from the cup breaking to the smoking metophors, unfortunately the Joowon fandom grew and that obviously made a change to the ending, the chapters got extended. Why? Stans were complaining to the author about the Joowon merch, I also heard she was getting death threats and Ive read quite a bit of love triangles and no author has ever made a note to explain why they chose to write the ending the way they did, it was weird.
Could you please recommend me me a stories with a plot where, MC is hang up on their first love but eventually moves on and falls for the ML (their true love)
OR
A plot where MC falls for the the person their crush likes
example: lucky paradise and hate mate.
It can be BL or Hetreo Reccs
Can some reccomend me BLs where the MC is a seme turned uke, Im also okay with side couples like - My Suha or Arts Manz
Maybe its just me, but it feels like everytime TJ and Ian see each other. They have sex, its like its lost its meaning and is purely just them being used to each other physically. Because Im so sorry, as much as sex is inimate its not the only way to connect.
Heres my list of them:
● When the MC actually ends up with their crush
● When ML is older than FL (I either want them to be the same age or FL should be older)
● BLs where there is a single dad, if the seme is older I wont read it. (If the seme is the father I dont mind if he's older but if its a potential step-father I want him to be younger)
● Power Dynamics (but only when the man is in the more dominant role, example I hate StudentxTeaxher and BossxEmpoyee but only if its the man in the more authoritative role..if its female teacher x male student or female boss x male employee, I will read it
● Best Friends who become lovers
● Falling for your friends brother/brothers friend
● Couple Dynamica like - ( Gone with the bubbles - its BL)
● Established dynamics
● Shares history and trauma bonds
Still looking for the chemistry you guys claim TJ and Ian have.
Intense sex and a shared trauma bond does not equate to good chemistry
Why is it so common for Romance stories to have an
older man x younger woman dynamic (and Im not reffering to age gaps). Its honestly the trope and cliche I hate the most
I want more stories with older woman x younger man dynamics (and not cougar romance) I mean like 2 or 3 years older. Theres sometime way more interesting about that Dynamic.
