TASTES LIKE A MILLION DOLLAR DICK
FKKKKK I WANT TO SEE MORE CRIES THIS DOUBLE MIZUKI FEAST IS SO UNFORGETTABLE ASGSKDLFJFKDLAHA
But an important note is probably that there's a lot of police brutality going on and eh, I just think some ppl might not like it. Also that extra incest, murder and sht case is so fked up I-- I expected Ryo to be a more depressed character but whoa. WHOA.
I think it’s ok to like Fake while also acknowledging police brutality. Especially for the 90s, it’s far from the most problematic detective/cop story I’ve seen. Though that’s not a very high bar. Spoilers—like I think it’s v good that Dee and Ryo go out of their way to stop each other from pulling their guns on people that have really hurt/killed people they love. There’s a lot of other issues that the manga brings up and doesn’t ignore(racism, bi/homophobia, “good/bad” cops, and like you said...Ryo’s mental health? lmao), but still need to be presented in more depth. + the occasional randomly drawing guns, punching (albeit with no intention to kill and guilty suspects) and certain jokes are something to consider. Fake will always be one of my favorite bl mangas of all time, I love the story and characters too much, but I’ve also become more critical since the first time I read it. Yikes this was really long sorry~~~
No prob no prob
I consider myself really accepting of all kinds of BLs
Lately, a lot of BLs don't address the common things more in western settings, perhaps because ppl are more sensitive to those things. But homophobic, sexist, racist comments are still common!
Oh yeah for sure. These things are still as real as they were then so more nuance on the topics is always nice. I guess I try to be open too, I also constantly read stuff that doesn’t talk about anything too deep or triggering to stay sane lol
I'M THE YOUNGEST!

I've loved this BL out of so many BLs I read. It's so soft, Minato is fucking beautiful. Like B E A U T I F U L.
Also fk that mascot, I'd probably collapse for real if they do that to me. I've always hated and literally run away from them.
