Kinda disappointed that this chapter sparked almost no discussion. I think Ian and Yugun's relationship is super cute and wholesome but I love these two being more and more affectionate, and also seeing how Mi-Rye's brotherly love for Ian is completely different than what he feels for Kyungbin, since many people accused him of liking Ian romantically before.
"Why do you insist on labels? Trans, bisexual, lesbian, asexual, we're all just human!"
This is why.
This poor woman was clearly in love with her best friend. If she grew up in a more tolerant environment, knowing those labels and the people behind them, she might've known she was a lesbian (or bi) way earlier. Labels are important and we all have them, whether we realise it or not.
Labels are boxes a person can reside in or be put in. Which makes them equally good and bad. Like you just did now, you put her in that box (lesbian or bi) and you might be right, and I'm quite confident, you did it out of care and maybe understanding, but it's not your place, to put her there - that's where insisting on labels is wrong. If she wants a label, let her take one herself. If she never wants a label, that's fine too.
Openness and sharing knowledge about our labels and working towards tolerant environments is always something I'd support though <3
This is a manga character, she won't read what I wrote. If it were a real person, I wouldn't insist on giving them any labels, but manga stories are usually direct in their messaging and this one's quite obvious, even Tengoku thought "I understand her, because I like *you*"
.
Why is no one updating this anymore and it's just the mangago bot compilating the chapters? I already know what happens in chapter 115, I just want to discuss with the others because it's fun
This is some of the most chaotic energy in BL I've ever read wtf
Shingo wanting to have sex with a man the first time, assuming he'd be a bottom, and then still thinking they'd switch...
I love him so much.
I was like "what's everyone talking about? His hands look fine" and that last panel was full yaoi hands
Because what in the lord's name was that??
And the comments saying it's completely out of character?
WHAT did the author feel when they were colouring that BLEEDING ANUS?!? Jesus Christ on a bike.
Yeah, there's rape in BL. Sometimes we stop reading the work, sometimes we suck it up, but they usually make morally grey or downright evil characters do that, and even then they usually don't show the physical consequences of forced penetration (tearing, bleeding, etc.), which makes this just extra evil.
The first time I read it, I was *really* annoyed at how Woo-Yeol preferred Seong-ah small just because "he's used to it" or "it suits him better." You're IN LOVE with that man, and he BARELY is any different to how he was before, why are you so eager to make him smaller and not try anything out? There are so many advantages to being taller and bigger, and he didn't even TRY to keep Seong-ah in his original body? In the reunion he's literally smaller than his entire family.
It made me very disappointed and I kinda wished he never had that original body or the opportunity to get it back in the first place. I love them as a couple and I like how utterly chaotic this story is, but I truly don't like people who want to keep their partners smaller, skinnier and fragile (like not letting them exercise in a non-supernatural setting). I would've understood if he looked completely different but C'MON.
I am going to do what I did with the raws: ignore this aspect of the story and enjoy how they're all stupid. Every time I read this manhwa it feels like the scene where SpongeBob loses control of his brain and all these mini SpongeBobs are running around with everything on fire. That scene, on a loop, forever.
"Crossing to this world..."
Does this possibly mean that they're both in a perpetual state of catatonia in the real world? We already got the hint that Yutong barely function until he crossed back, and maybe Weiyun is the same? Will they both wake up in the real world now and date in real life? Will they remember everything? Dang it I really want the resolution, it's been years *cry*
I was all giddy and almost sniffling until I saw Lao Wang and laughed out loud ngl part of me was thinking "hold up, isn't he there just having to witness this couple's extremely cheesy love confession" but I died nonetheless
