OH MY GOODNESS THEY ARE COMING OUT WITH AN ANIME ADAPTION! i am so excited! i was always kind of hoping!
really??oh my goshhhhh
WHATATTTT SRSLY????
I'm just going to say it. Watching Daiki get all possessive was super hot.
ikr
I just picked this up and it seems interesting so far! I like the premise. I do kinda think too many characters with too many different motives have been kind of thrown in here at the beginning, when the two main characters kind of need to be developed, imo
like, sometimes the chapters leave me with more questions than answers.
but it's still pretty good! i like it~
if anyone knows where I can buy the japanese raws, you'd be my new best friend.
for real though, is Canna magazine really the only place to read ahead? the magazine is so hard to obtain, there must be purchasable raws SOMEWHERE. it seems like bad marketing for such a popular story to only release the chapters in one place.
nevermind I was able to buy them on Renta! it's in japanese but i'm able to read like 6 chapters ahead or something.
worth every penny! love MADK
Can you please provide the link. Is it in Japanese Renta? I never find this in Renta English Version.
yes, this is the Japanese version! if you are interested, here's the link
https://renta.papy.co.jp/renta/sc/frm/item/168410/title/686241/
(side note, if you do end up buying the raws, make sure to choose 'MADK 2', because everything from 'MADK '1 is already here on this site, so you would not be getting anything new)
I cannot understand Japanese T_T
But thank you for the link! (づ￣ ³￣)づ
Can I pls get the link fir the raws (づ￣ ³￣)づ
yay the raws finally updated! it's been like a month so I was kind of worried., so now it's up until 124.
spoiler!
Wait for it....Suu gets a new outfit!
okay, not much of a spoiler, but if you've ever unlocked a skin on a video game, similar feeling
I just read Byeonduck's most recent tweet and got so sad. Byeonduck needs to be protected at all costs.
Oh why, what did she say???
wow I can't believe people downvoted this. to dislike where the story is going is one thing, but attacking the author is another. it's messed up
a lot of people were spamming them with hate towards chapter 62; the most upvoted comment was something like 'don't you have an editor, your story is sh*t' and that's pretty much why the author didn't post last week.
anyways, their most recent tweet was expressing how sad they were that people were so horrible towards chapter 62.
readers think they are truly entitled to make this story, but they are not. the worst thing for a writer to do would be to listen to what the internet has to say instead of listening to their own instinct, intuition, and honing their own skill to make the plot as they envisioned it
At first I was like 'NOOOOOOO!!!!' and reaching my hand out to a nonexistent hole on my floor.
but then Set turned out to be super badass at the end of this chapter and DAUM.
I hope the silver haired guy is the bottom. There are not enough dominant bottoms out there, imo
pretty sure he's top
yeah, I just checked out the raws, he's a top
Raws?! If you happened to still have the link somewhere. . . That’d be really nice. . . Please and Thank you ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Yeah he got top psyco vibe. And you can see the author like small top
ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
well, I think the series is still pretty new, but the second episode is up on bomtoon for free. The third you'd have to pay for, but here is the link

Nah, I only needs a glance to know that this would have feminine top - manly bottom
yeah, the couple immediately reminded me of Ai no Kusabi, the absolute OG for this kind of pairing, but I kind of wondered if it would not be the same case here, but it is
For me, it also has Berrserk vibes
Oh! Okay! Thank you! :)
thats not a bad comparison but just to be clear Jason was considerably larger than Riki. like he was beautiful and feminine looking in the face but he is described as a towering figure. Riki is more normal size guy and boyish looking. (not rly buff either but toned and tough).
I looked up some images and it looks interesting! I'm kinda curious. Is Berserk yaoi?
lol nope. its a gorey intense action manga that was aimed at young men (tho ofc anyone can read it). the main guy Guts love interest is a woman named Casca but that didnt stop people from shipping him with his comrade/friend Griffith who has wavy blonde hair and a soft pretty face but he's a knight and can fight as fiercely as Guts (a more macho looking buff guy) can. cue tons of fanarts and fanfics where they fuck lol. i am not familiar enough with these fanworks to know who was most commonly drawn/written as the top/bottom but u can prob find them easily enough if ur curious? (the heyday of Berserk has since passed i think its fair to say altho it is considered a classic for many manga and anime fans across the world). i hope that helped. i bet there's wiki and fanpages that summarize the whole series too if ur curious i never finished it nor even got very far with the anime (which was my first exposure to it, not the manga). its just not a genre that i enjoy much. if only it HAD been a smutty action BL manga lol.
ah yes the elusive power bottom. more BL rly needs to break out of boring heteronormative sexual roles tbh. but that's a convo for a diff thread since this is about an insanely powerful man who uses his class and wealth to subjugate a much larger physically stronger man into being his sex slave cause said man has no wealth or social standing to lean back on. it is interesting in that its a more nuanced and realistic depiction of power structures. not Big Stronk Man = Top Dom Boi becuz...animal kingdom? heteronormativity? idek. but yeah the story would still work if Silver hair was a power bottom but i think humiliation kink is a big part of this story and that is sold better with the buff boi on bottom. (that and the duke is cleaaarly a sadist and...sadist on bottom doesnt work that well...i mean im not saying it doesnt HAPPEn but uh..)
No, isn't yaoi, Sorry! But it's a really good adult manga... It has a lot of yaoi fanwork and doujins and the first anime is great
It's true that the conversation doesn't truly apply here. This manga, as you said, provides a break away from the "heteronormative", per say, roles in yaoi, and shows something not often seen in BL with the couples' roles of a large man who happens to be a bottom and a smaller man with higher social status who happens to be a top, which is something anyone can appreciate. that being said, I REALLY am looking forward to a BL, hopefully in the future, that features a man with a princely trope, a stereotype, even, who plays the part of a power bottom. not a character who the author eludes to being such in the beginning and breaks away once the plot just reaches slight development, but a true princely, dominant, power bottom.
thanks for your thoughts! I will check out Berserk. It sounds great.
I see! Thanks for your reply. It still sounds interesting! I will check it out!
wow the story just keeps getting creepier and creepier. I love it!
SAME lol
