HAHAHAHAHAH ONOE!!!!! hahahahahah you poor cutie! I love AP so much. It's literally my favourite Natsume-san's work.
Also I relate to Kaburagi so much....:'((( I'm so happy happy happy that he found Onoe....he really hit the lottery. Onoe helped him with all his past guilt...his sister, this friend, next on his list is his parents ahahaha Onoe, you cutie angel. Kaburagi also loves him so much with every day passing...I mean, who wouldn't...Kaburagi is still my favourite bl character ever written not even joking. I love him.
Please I don't want Sano to get between them after all Onoe did for him by changing Kaburagi ahahaha their sex scenes are always hot and hilarious and cuteeeee "AAA huh?" OMG I BLUSHED aaaaaaa
Thank you for updating I love you forverrrrr and ever.
Ikr!! I love their relationship so much! It's so wholesome and natural, like they're a couple but they are also friends yknow? and although I'm curious about kaburagi's parents as well, i want to know more about onoe's past and family situation, we don't know anything about him except his friendship with masayan.
You're right! I hope it isn't a aad story though or probably his parents are just like him hahahaha it'll be cute as heck to see kaburagi be surrounded by so many onoes hHahahahahahaa
I think it'll be interesting either way, if it was sad then i it'll just break my heart, onoe's such a sunshine i wouldn't want him to suffer but at the same time i feel like i want it to happen, it'll make an unexpected background story, seeing that onoe's always smiling and just all over the place. Also i want to see kaburagi comforting him and just being there for him in general, i like soft and kaburagi (=・ω・=)
I have a feeling that the boss already liked him and after they slept together for the first time he must have confessed and thought the other reciprocated and that's how this mess started....if the uke wanted to be sex friends, the seme changed himself to fit his style of dating just to get close with him I bet.
But bruh. Be honest instead and confess soon instead of doing this kinda shit.... you'll regret it and you're involving your parents too hahaha though it seems they already involved a lot if they're considering marriage. This is gonna get soooo messy and angsty for sure.
The seme seems to be in love and the uke will fall for sure in the future. Their sex was amazing ngl...and their dynamic is pretty funny hahahaha though I personally find that "ugh I can't believe we had sex after I promised myself I wouldn't" trope annoying a lot but hey, he's hot as hell so go for it, my guy.
Maaaaan, they don't have big dick energy, they have big COCK energy...JAXX really brought out all his/her guns for this damn manhwa....I AM SO HERE FOR JIN AND HIS BIG COCK ENERGY HAREM....
"I don't make promises i can't keep" JIN,, I WILL SIMP FOR YOU THE DAY I DIEEE. He makes me wanna sing that tiktok song "I hate all men but when he...." hahahahaha men, please learn from your daddy here.
But getting back to the actual plot, who thinks that Matthew could become the new whatever of the museum under Jin's influence or maybe by luck of the draw? Since the qualities he mentioned could possibly describe matthew hmmmmMmmmm
Also I see you catching feelings jin, that gentle brush of the cheek and goodbye kiss...phew. Matthew's "ill be waiting for you" awww...but to me, he's still a little sus...idk why. I love you boy but you strange af
Matthew is an artist not a curator so bad fit there
Also idt he is sus, from his childhood flashback it looked like he was autistic or perhaps some mild social disorder.
What...he's a sculptor, so maybe in the future. They said hes really talented and whatever and won a lot of prizes. Their relationship I don't think will end only as muse and sculptor. I mean I hope not it'll be a waste
Matthew is sus kinda also because jin remembered hearing his name but he couldn't remember and also a lot of violence happened in the past that is haunting him and his whole relationship with his ex hyung that he used to fuck.. I'm thinking jin might have something to do with Matthew becoming an orphan somehow, the thing is if he remembers or will mayhaps learn about it later
I don't have the novel, just these chapters here so your whole comment is a spoiler
This isn't from the novel lmao. It was in the chapter where Matthew first introduces himself and jin sees his ID
My bad, I thought you meant Matthew was the one with the violent past so I thought your comment was a spoiler.
So I looked back and you are referring to two brief panels in chapter 4 or 5 from Jin's pov. He wonders if he heard the name Matthew before, then a bloody image of an old dead guy (looks like he was beaten and strangled with a rope) comes to mind and Jin gets a migraine...None of that makes the young college student, Matthew look sus, which I thought was what this whole thread is about. If anything it makes Jin look sus bc it's his memory.
Umm....that *was* a theory. Matthew is sus because his history is still unknown, and he's somewhat detached from human emotions. That weird emotions chart on the wall, his habit of wearing glasses to avoid making people notice his expressionless face, his detest for normal social interactions, and why he became an orphan...there must be something connecting them or that whole shit was pointless. Jin's illness, his tattoo, Matthew's orphan past, has to be connected for sure. It'll obviously become a plot point in the future. Matthew is an awkward sweetheart but there is obviously more than what meets the eye when it comes to him. That's why he's sus...unlike jin, who displays sociopathic tendencies but is still more normal than matthew. I'm still not sure he sees Jin as a person but as a something he's curious about and of course because he is so goddamn ideal for him. Following a stranger to a gallery isn't exactly 'mentally helathy" poster boy behaviour.
Maaaan the sex they gonna for the next 20 chapters is just...... ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄ they're gonna be FUCK fuck FUCK buddies like the hardcore kind
bruh
I'm still fucking cringing over that BRO translation.....fuck fuck fuck ahahahahahahah ugh I can't even take screenshots of it because it makes me cringe hahahahaha I wish when this start uploading someone uploads that chapter from manta which has the hyung word there instead
People here talking about 17 and 31 age gap and calling it pedophilia...meanwhile they all probably liked twilight at one point where the age gap was more than 100 years hahahahaha good one guys.
Even if you were making a joke your comment is still trivializing the real issue: level of mental maturity.
it isn’t the same tho..
Mental maturity is acting like fictional characters have to be the embodiment of perfect human beings with healthy relationships all the time. Some stories are just fucked up and are about fucked up people. People here need to stop treating fictional stories like they're fucking bible preachings. hypocritical people probably jerked off to shit like fifty shades and be a fangirl of pedophilic twilight and take moral stances here
Lmaoooo ok, twilight fangirl. Please go and ship a 117 year old with a 17 year old girl. Go wild
oh you’re so funny! totally trying to excuse behavior like this. how embarrassing.
Right. Like even the edwards like 100, he still talks, acts and looks like a 16 year old. Idk why ppl use this argument as if it does anything to prove their point…
Twilight is gross and predatory. There's no reason someone over a hundred years old should be trying to get with a girl in high school regardless of physical appearance. Edward's gross.
I've had people try to defend it like "oh well he was turned into a vampire at 17 and that's where his brain development stopped so mentally he's the same as Bella."
But here's the thing. Say someone gets a traumatic brain injury at 17 that makes it so their mental maturity stagnates at 17 and their brain stops developing. That person still ages. So eventually this person turns 50 and starts dating a 16 year old. It doesn't matter that his brain stopped maturing at 17, he's still 50 fucking years old! And even if his mental age has stagnated, there's also a huge difference between life experiences. And no one would care that his mental age is still 17, because it's creepy no matter what for a 50 year old to be dating a high school student. But when it's a hot vampire who still looks 17 despite being over a hundred, everyone is okay with it.
It's hypocrisy I'm pointing out, not that either one is ok. People be playing fast and loose with shit like pedophilia. If it's gay, then the age gap of 16 years is too gross for them, but if it's straight shit, 100 years age difference doesn't faze them. it's kinda rad
If the 31 year old acts like a 16 year old and looks younger, you wouldn't mind? Gtfo of here with your hypocrisy. Edward's age is the LEAST of his problems with that clumsy chick. Dating him is being necrophilic bruh...that plus the fact that he's an obsessed controlling stalker who is 100+ her age...fuck
Hell no. Twilight is weird asf too
I love you so much chansol...but seriously, I can't imagine you forgiving someone who was that maniacal and still being civil to them. If I were chansol, bruh...never mention going to an isolated staircase to talk with this psycho, but just...even when Starr was telling his sob story, I was like...that was then, this is now...I refuse to believe that he didn't get some sense of right or wrong after becoming so old lmao. In any case, please don't get in the way anymore...even though hanhoo doesn't show his feelings, but I dont want him to be hurt by chansol's all encompassing kindness to every single person in this world. I don't think he should have forgiven Starr so quickly at all...killing isn't the answer, but at least don't be so chummy jesus. He had someone STAB you just for kicks...chansol, how are you going to catch and face August at this rate...I have a feeling he'll tell him some sob story and chansol will be "don't do it again" and go home lmaoooo....ridiculous just ridiculous....
Instead of making progress with his relationship with hanhoo, chansol is doing things that will make him even more upset....bruh....kindness isn't always a good thing. Just an opinion.
But i think he can forgive Starr exactly bec of August. His hatred is reserved for August only. And our MC is pretty lenient to ppl who hurt him. Remember the ML beat him up before for following him and they become bffs after lols.
So MC hates ppl who hurt ppl other than him so im not surprised hes still friendly w Starr.
Yes he doesn't have self-preservation at all. I'm just slightly concerned how it will impact hanhoo...chansol doesn't think his kindness can hurt others, but it will end up hurting hanhoo if he keeps doing these things. I think he'll learn it the hard way after he sees that for himself. :((
This manga is censoring even the dialogues...just a warning to English readers, these official translations are shit so don't take any of it with even a grain of salt. This manhwa has a LOT of swearing and especially the jelly sunbae and soohyun swear a lot so their dialogues are more suitable for their characters. If any translation group picks this up and reuploads the chapters before it's too late, it'd be great. Season two would be ruined completely with these shit official translations. Even unclean translations would be better than the official ones. That's how bad they are.
right? I've seen people translate this on their own and is actually better than this
Translate it on their own? Are there blogs doing freelance translating on checkmate???
nah just a post passing by on fb i don't remember them anymore but I've read this part where sunbae cursed a lot and the talk between uke and seme after the call is more appealing to me
Yes exactly!!! It must have been a fan translation. I understand korean so reading this in korean and English are two very different experiences. In english, the lezhin really fucked it up quite thoroughly. :((( I feel bad for the only English readers. This manga deserves so much more.
Ugh not only lezhin fucked this manga by censoring tf out of it but the official translation is soOoo crappy. The korean wording and phrasing of their dialogues are so much more cool and have so much "character" than the english translation. Ugh how I wish an actual translation group would've picked this up and redone it all. It's such a waste from top to bottom....I feel bad for people who can't read the raws. Because this story is simply FUCKING amazing in their native language. Very disappointing. Eunsung and Soohyun's conversations are much more interesting in korean...when eunsung is always gentle, mischievous, and flirty when he speaks and soohyun is bitter, prickly, but smart and concise in the way he deflects his "boss"
Shit, fuck you, Lezhin. Fuck. You. They must have had some bad karma in their previous lives to ruin a masterpiece for god knows why.
I don't have a group tl anymore
I don't have a group tl anymore which sad
Wondering why they censored it indeed, it's not mine they don't have other smut works. Probably there's under 16 version and argyle adult version?
I guess the translations might also be why the story is a bit hard to understand. Idk why but I still have so much trouble understanding what exactly is happening, and just end up feeling that I’m too dumb T_T
I also feel like their conversations are too simplistic... Sorry for typos btw, my damn keyboard
YESSSSSS you're right. The translations are sooooo crappy. I wish I could tell you how amazing the dialogues in this manhwa are...the English version is like Kermit speaking to my ears. Very shitty translation. You're absolutely right to be confused, the translation doesn't do their interactions justice. They not only censored their most interesting scenes, which was basically mostly during the smut (not penetration,but like other regular yaoi stuff) they censored more than that, and the translation is SHIT SHIT SHIT. I was looking forward to seeing how their translated this chapter and the last one...one of my favourites! But they made it so bland!
Eunsung was the one who was jealous, and moreover, in the coming episodes especially season 2, their dialogues get more tricky since eunsung will be more straightforward with his feelings and soohyun will be even more defensive yet he wouldn't be able to hide his changing heart and goals......bruh......
Ugh they aren't simplistic in the korean manhwa which is why this is popular.... it's a psychological manhwa jesus. The main thing is the dialogues...Lezhin English is trash
Hahahahaha man, the extras were soooooo cute.... it was kinda suffocating?? To see onoe jealous idk why but when it was kaburagi my heart was all butterflies.....hahahahahaaha
It's just onoe is so pure...he doesn't even notice Kasai's feelings ahahahahaha I live Sanjo Kun as he isn't interested in Kaburagi that way...I can't wait for him to find out hahahah I'm shipping him with Kasai, but they both have crushes on completely opposite type of people. I love kasai so much tbh...hahahaha he cracks me up XDDD
Kasai is sooo cute!!! He deserves a kiss on the cheek for One. At least one.
