hyuga is giving major 2nd ML potential in this chapter and i really do hope he is because EVERY. SHOUJO. i’ve read has always made it so that the 2nd ML falls in love with the FL on first sight … it’s refreshing to see the change of tropes bc it genuinely seems like he’s on the path of liking her without the overuse of blush in every interaction they have
ok so after seeing the discussion in the comments i went to check the 1st chapter again and i scanned every page just to realise y’all rlly are talking abt 2 panels that is clearly showing him having a ptsd moment
i won’t argue against how it could’ve been drawn less explicitly or in another way, but i don’t think the way the author drew it was bad either. i like the contrast of only his eerie back being shown while the only display of his face here is in the flashbacks of his most vulnerable moment, clearly showing how much of an effect that moment still has on him. it gives off the feeling of dissonance very accurately
Same, I was confused cause I thought I missed a whole SA scene (I don't think how it was shown was that bad or that the author was using it as a kink thing,).
YES like some people in the comments are tripping. It's not glorified or romanticised(sp?) it's part of the MC's past
Yh so from the raws their first time is completely conceded like you don't see anything and yet whilst it's only a couple panels they made the sa scene explicit which I found gross and w
Cencored*
I guess that’s fair? but at the same time (not to like attack u or anything) but A LOT of the BLs you’ve read has unconsented sex… i don’t see how painting rape (although explicit) as a bad thing is worse than u guys’ daily readings of actual romanticised rape — like u read rape in BL and brush past it bc it’s between the main pair, but now it’s suddenly uncomfortable?
But I don't like or ignore rape between main couples?? I criticise that too. And to be completely honest I don't think any sa scene should be uncensored it's very easy to do a sa or rape scene without showing the dick and this goes for all authors I can't think of any other reason why the choose to draw it uncensored
idk why you’re pointing this out when i also clearly said in my original comment that i won’t argue against the fact that it could’ve been drawn less explicit, like what’s the point of trying to lecture me with smth i already critiqued
AND again, i was obviously talking about the manga here and not the raw with the uncensored stuff (which most people here doesn’t know about anyways?), hence why i “defended” its COMPOSITION, because that was one of the things positive about that scene
but i’m glad you’re still critical about rape regardless, many here are picking n choosing so i was mostly talking about them
Bruh wtf this reaction is so weird go reread what you sent to me. I was just confirming I'm not one of those who criticise this and romanticise others and this was in response to your response not to the original comment. I genuinely don't know why you're acting like it was an attack. I just wanted to make clear I am not that type
Literally what are you even talking about did you read some alternate reply I don't get why your crashing out over my reply I wasn't being rude or nasty or attacking I literally just added my opinion I didn't argue with your didn't say yours was wrong I didn't say what you were saying or thinking so I am genuinely confused by your response cause tf
ALSO my original comment I posted under your post was mainly for the two people above me who were clearly referencing the fact people are saying it was romanised which I was clearly explaining. I never said you said it but they did all I was doing is explaining why. I didn't see the point in replying the same thing to two different people so I put it straight under.
no shot you blocked me think i hurt bro’s feelings or something..
1st reply:
i did reread my message and the thing i said you were pointing out was the uncensored thing you talked abt (or how explicit rape scenes can be drawn), which i pointed out bc that had nothing to do with what i said to you
i just talked abt people cherry picking when it comes to rape, so i didn’t see the relevance in you confirming something i already critiqued and never really accused you of liking
2nd reply:
i guess that makes sense but obv if it is straight under most people would assume it’s meant for OP unless you made it clear so,
