This chapter (ch. 76) was a blessing:
1. The matrioshka of the kind was the most adorable thing ever drawn!
2. The art is exceedingly beautiful (the faces, the dresses, the flowers, the colors, the backgrounds. My God, everything is beautiful)
3. I love Felix so darn much!!!
4. That meme at the end was priceless indeed.
That meme SEND ME I-
When you think the kid is going to say something nasty and... he doesn't (Ch. 49), I love this manga.
Oh, my heart!!! it's about to explode of wholesomeness.
Also, I want to eat those star cookies, they look divine.
My highlight of the chapter: "Aren't I pretty suave?" hahahahah of course you are, darling.
This shit (GOOD shit) makes me feel lonely ╥﹏╥
They're a beautiful couple. I wish that everyone of us (reading this webtoon) interested in any kind of romantic relationship could at least have one moment like this in our lifes. So, let's pray to that.
i feel you my soulmate, i feel you ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
AMEN ┗( T﹏T )┛
what a dream I want to come true
You know what, I need to practice my English, so I’ll write a little rant here, but to not just be a little bitch I’ll write what I like, what I dislike, and what I hope will happen in this webtoon, so here I go!
Note: It’s hard for me to remember Korean names, so they’ll be uke, seme and Cain.
LIKE: The uke is super endearing, I love him to pieces. He’s surprisingly assertive
(I’m not sure if this word has the same meaning in English as in Spanish, but I’ll roll with it), and he’s super decent, always picking up the garbage. Love him.
DISLIKE: In true yaoi fashion we get to witness the king of FUCKING LAZY writing, the oh so very disappointing and very common sexual abuse as a plot device to initiate sexual interactions between two people of the same sex. Seasoned with the serial rapist mottos: “You started this… (Ch. 8)”, “you started again this time (Ch. 14)” and the “you’re the one who didn’t remember. Isn’t it your fault? (Ch. 22)”. And the side dish of asking for consent before being kissed, because yes, he’s the FUCKING KING OF CONSENSUAL SEXUAL INTERACTIONS… the audacity of this bitch!
HOPED: I hoped for him to confess to the sexual abuse and apologize for it, but my hopes were shattered.
LIKE: For the more critical minds, yaoi has honed our keen sense to identify rape, specially veiled ones; we could give conference about it. So, it’s something… I guess.
LIKE: At least the seme has always used condoms, which is nice to see.
DISLIKE: The super cliché seme, but he’s hot, so who cares? *tongue in cheek*
Do I hate him? No, I don’t. Do I think this author (and many more) should improve their seme building game? Yes, yes I do.
LIKE: The seme’s very best quality: HE’S SOOOO FUCKING WELL DRESSED, MY GOD THOSE SUITS!!!
DISLIKE: The second time they had sex (Ch. 14) the whole interaction that lead to that was so unbelievable. Like, imagine yourself saying and doing what they did, would you take that seriously? Would you take yourself seriously? Would you honestly agree to sex after all that cringe fest? I doubt it.
HOPE: For more insight into the seme’s perspective. Because, you might have traumas and their certainly not your fault, but it is your responsibility how you handle them, and he’s doing a very poor job at it.
LIKE: The puppy like Cain. I “know” his only here to make the seme jealous and he will be misused as a tool to bring the seme to the realization that he loves the uke, but I don’t care, I’m still rooting for him being successful in love. I know many yaoi authors love to play games with the poor hearts of the slightly less unhinged people reading their works, but thankfully, I can handle disappointment very well, so I’m still in for the ride. TEAM CAIN!!!
LIKE: The oh so painful “premonition” of Cain being just a clown in this whole plot. At least we all know what to expect *sigh*
HOPE: For this webtoon to blow my mind making the uke and Cain end up happily together leaving the seme with a lifelong regret.
LIKE: The author has a lot of potential to become an even better story teller, building more rounded characters, and shaping more realistic interactions. And, again, for the love of all that is sacred not to use rape as a device to start sexual interactions between people of the same sex, that’s just lazy.
LIKE: The Ch. 16 super relatable phone smacking your face. That shit is painful and shameful at the same time, two blows in one.
HATE: The childish drama between adults (the whole USB plot of the classmate). We don’t need that shit, homosexual relationships are dramatic enough, no need for authors to add this petty drama in an adult setting.
LIKE: That birthday cake looked divine, I’m salivating just remembering it.
LOVE: The fuckin angst! I live for it!
LIKE: The whole “I’m no prostitute (nothing against the profession… when you willingly decide to do it in a safe and respectful environment), I’ll give you back your money…BITCH!” You were served stupid seme, SERVED!
DISLIKE: Myself… why do I do this to myself? Every fucking time I promise I will not read unfinished series, but where am I? WHERE THE FUCK AM I?... FUCKING CH.23 YOU FOOL!
BONUES DISLIKE: Men with shorts, specially the preppy ones. I do respect and understand the choice, but I can’t bring myself to like them.
So, here I end and ride into the sunset to read “a guy like you”
