Lol not the 'foreigners kissing to exhange greetings' showing up in a British character! Not the author choosing the stiffs! But even beyond that, not the author thinking that anyone (British or otherwise) would kiss their coworkers (especially in the office & during their first week) on the cheeks as a greeting! That's so awkward!
Throughout the years I think I’ve read 2-3 other manga and seen another 1-2 anime with this similar trope of a foreigner kissing someone on the lips and other Japanese people saying, “yeah it’s normal greeting for foreigners” hahahaha. I wonder which unfortunate person got assaulted by a white guy, got told that excuse, and everyone just nodded in agreement like “ah makes sense” lmao
Only 2-3 throughout the years? Bestie, you're lucky. I can't escape seeing these in 2/3 manga per month. I keep thinking that no way they still believe these stupid stereotypes but apparently they do, but honestly it's possible they know but just don't care just in order for some of that tongue action. The gods know that sometimes this trope has excused full on French kissing as a greeting toward strangers like tf?
Ikr it’s so weird. Like bro u were assaulted like ur a victim fr. Call the police
In Argentina we do it on a daily basis in contexts like school, work, family. Even with people you've never met if they're introduced to you.
Except for children and elderly people we don't know, basically everyone's greeting is a kiss on the cheek.
That's fair. I certainly know of a lot of countries where this is common, but it's still a stereotype. We definitely don't in India for one, and I'm pretty sure they don't in the UK either, especially to strangers or at the workplace. This character is British, ergo, author is wrong
100% agree. shouldve just chosen a different ethnicity bc british being this invasive in personal space is just ??????
People celebrating bisexuality representation in yaoi but as a bisexual, I don't want this molester to rep me or my homies.
After reading all the works available here, seems to thrive on MLs that are molesters. They seem incapable of writing a story that doesn't begin with sexual assault. I wonder what the purpose is, considering how unnecessary it ends up being for the plot. It's probably just for the porn. Sad. Their 2nd class yaoi becomes third class in seconds.
The 16 year old girl isn't the problem. The prince is. She's naive and ignorant, which is bad but not really a sin. The prince is just a dick.
I started reading this and I'm barely 3 chapters in but the comments are daunting. Since I started this manga just to have a good time, could someone please spoil the entire story for me before I go on?
It's a rollercoaster but it's worth it, happy ending also
That's good to know but I really mean it when I say I want people to spoil me on exactly what happens.
might be a little late but basically the bottom is still in love with his situationship (redhead) while fucking around with the top (light brown hair) and is constantly chasing after situationship. situationship loves him back but has too much baggage to accept bottom so bottom is constantly in pain and sleeps with top to feel some satisfaction. top is in love with him and is chasing after him, green flags all over. a considerable amount of the manhwa is the tension between top wanting bottom to accept him and bottom still being in love with situationship and feeling bad about not being able to love top back. eventually, after MUCH anguish and angst (mostly on the readers’ part), bottom realizes he loves top back, chases after him, and they get their happy ending. side stories are basically bottom trying to redeem himself after hurting and being toxic towards top and them being cute and lovey dovey. it’s a long ride but we’ll worth it :)
Thank you so much for the explanation! Sadly, this sounds too exhausting from me and since I vowed to be here for a good time and not a long time, I think Imma have to tap out
