Why the hell she slaps him and slut-shames him, this is not funny
Kinda sad how this manga would have been really wholesome and really enjoyable if it wasn’t for the rape (the uke was still drunk). I feel a bit bitter since almost no readers acknowledge it and the manga is basically in the “only fluff, no twists” category.
I understand that for a lot of people especially the younger one, rape can be an unfamiliar concept. But don’t just disregard the experience of victims just because you want to enjoy your manga in peace (“guilt-free”). I was assaulted several times by people who said that they wanted to be friends and I can tell you that this is not a nice feeling. I am pretty sure that people who gloss over the sexual assault / rape trope are those who didn’t experience it first hand ; realize that this is a privilege in a society where it is pretty common.
Wait that's not rape Was it? You can call it dub-con because yuu did not really ask him and yes akki was drunk but he did not refuse. I'm not trying to use the "he didn't refuse enough" excuse, but akki genuinely liked it. Plus a drunk person is still free to give consent
Basically im trying to say that sometimes two people have Sex without explicitly asking for consent or talking about the details, but they still both agree
When it comes to law, if the person is drunk they can not give consent.
The only case where it can considered dub-con is if the 2 persons were both drunk to the same extent.
Drunkness = state of mind not clear enough to make decisions
Wait for real? I didn't know that. But then basically drunk Sex is just generally non con. Why would a drunk person's consent be invalid?
Because alcohol makes people’s state of mind unclear and make them bolder. Someone who didn’t want to have sex sober would suddenly want to when drunk.
If a person is just tipsy it’s fine because they are mostly still themselves. The way to check if one’s state of mind is clear enough to give proper consent is to ask repeatedly (if they want sex) without pressure. Something that I rarely see in yaoi. Though On & Off has a good scene in this regard : when the uke wants to have sex, the seme makes sure he can walk straight on a line before accepting.
The laws regarding alcohol and consent are different across the world : most western countries follow what I just said, but some only disregard the presence of consent if the alcohol is considerably high (if the person can’t move at all for example...). Some others countries don’t take alcohol into account at all.
That's good to know. I still personally did not mind the scene, because again, he was okay with it even after sobering up, but it will obviously never reach the level of on&off, kang and yiyoung have one of the healthiest relationships ever
I agree with you, I wouldn’t expect every yaoi to reach this level of clear consent otherwise it would be too difficult to choose what to read (⌒▽⌒)
Yess i agree! Gosh I'm so glad you turned out nice, i kind of feared this would end in a heated discussion when I answered lol
Uh i just want to throw this in here but the uke didnt really reject the seme's kisses either and during the first sexual exposure they had I thoguht there was going to be adiscussion abt their feelings since the seme probably misunderstood the ukes consent to his kisses and stuff. So yeah it is technically rape on the ukes part how abt the seme prescpetive? The uke consented to his kisses and althoguh the uke did run away it could be easily thoguht as embarrassment if the uke didnt straight up tell him that he didnt want it. IM NOT JUSTIFYING HIS ACTIONS JUST EXPLAINING THE POSSIBLE MISUNDERSTANDING.
Well that was just soemthing I noticed have a nice day ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
I do understand your point of view. Akihisa was definitely scared shocked and stricken by that incident but this situation was kinda brushed off. I will say it was dub con for the stories sake. But in a normal situation that was basically rape. Because Yuu wasn't drunk. And akihisa didn't consent to the sex. He didn't even know that they were going to have sex!
lolol true but at tbh I think both of them are pretty much airheads- no discussion at all about dating or anything and Akihisa not even telling Yuu how he felt like when he kissed him to the point it became a natural thing. (even if it is under the pretense that he thought Yuu appreciates "Western culture" lol) Both of them lack common sense and I felt this could have been much better if they communicated with each other but judging from their verbal social skills or lack thereof it would quite a challenge lmao. (but something really important to do)
Thanks for adding your thoughts in the comments! I thought it was very informative- sad to know that students like Akihisa and Yuu not recognize what rape is even if they are fictional characters.
Anyways, happy holidays everyone! ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
Yeah! Happy holidays to you too (=・ω・=)
Yess happy holidays <3
It would be better if the uploader mention the official site (pocket comics). Because it is not mentioned people assume it’s a fan translation and author doesn’t get the support she deserves
I am just at the beginning (the few first pages) and I cackled when the father said “lions push their cubs off cliffs”
PFFFFF
Lmao why choosing lions as an example to follow ? They are the most lazy animals : they don’t hunt and don’t raise “the cubs” either. They basically do nothing all day (because the females do the work).
Royalties and powerful characters, please stop comparing yourself with lions because it’s ridiculous lol.
Yes that was a rant about lions ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Oot. Scar pushed simba off the cliff but he's not even his cub lololol
OMG I dissolved when I saw Nadricka !!! I love him, I want a Nadricka in my life (☆▽☆)
Edit: can I get recs with mls that give off a similar vibe as Nadricka ? For research purposes hehe (づ￣ ³￣)づ
Don’t know why but this story is really funny to me xD
It’s funny how at each updates everyone echos the title and ask “who’s the daddy ??”, with various degrees of despair (づ￣ ³￣)づ And how the spoilers in the comments further the confusion because they contradict themselves XO
The question “who’s the daddy” has lead to chaos Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
There should be some bruises on Nakyum’s neck since he got strangled. I thought it would be obvious that way that he got kidnapped but guess not ╮(￣-￣)╭
The original is on ridibook
I found several links for the Chinese version (ex : https://m.hmba.vip/0_884.html) but they don’t work for me. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I’m sorry but I laughed when I saw the princess “choking” the guy because the way she puts her hand on his neck, it doesn’t look that would do anything. Like her fingers are not clenched even a little bit
