As much as I love the classic art and amazing g storytelling, if the author decides Hyunwoo and Subin to end up together I'll forget this amazing manga.
I loved this from the beginning. I felt connected to it.
I was a HYUNWOO once, I did everything he did, but except for 2 years, it's 10 years of breaking friendship just bec of a stupid confession. I realized after reading Yaoi for 13 years what a HYPOCRITE I was for promoting Yaoi yet I did that to my best friend. She stalks me until today but unlike Hyunwoo, I completely cut my ties with her and all our friends. That's why I'm so angry at hyunwoo bec. Subin moved on! And he's being a homewrecker. Selfish jrk.
If I can hug and kiss you through the screen I would!! Thank you
A manga this good, makes me fangirl and re-read, the long wait are.always worth it.. but this latest chapter.. F'd my mind up. I just read BY MY SIDE, but the straight guy there was open to the confession.. Hyunwoo made me remember the exact same situation I was in years ago. That close to someone like Subin, like sisters.. but the latest chapter was hard for me to read. It was good but it made me think of the past too much.
I feel so bad for the Davichi. I was expecting him to be the crazy dominant one. He didn't even have a dialogue at the end. Oh my gosh.. I'm laughing but that's FD up
Auto-correct!! DAICHI
Before Skip beat, before mangago, before Ukyou Sensei's NEKO FETISH, Werecats and whatnots, this was like my thing!! I remember checking every month for updates at the dormitory and the intensity of who's whose sibling!!! I mean, this was before YAOI was even named UNDERGROUND fad.. guys...
I've been rereading this so much for the past 2 years. Doumeki's is such a strong and realistic borderline unique seme. And Yashiro..
Guys the contrast with the FIRST DAY Doumeki's saw the beautiful and almost untouchable Yashiro: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/saezuru_tori_wa_habatakanai/mf/v01/c0023/38/
To the pleading and almost broken Yashiro: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/saezuru_tori_wa_habatakanai/mf/6ba770cf8927a77ff194ed50229a1153_chapter-10/pg-13/
This scene made me realize the power of manga. When reading books, sometimes our imagination is stronger than the actual visuals we see.in movies, but this scene is just portrayed heartbreakingly sad.. reminded me of some Takehiko Inoue techniques.
Anyway. That was hot.
I was a Sakyo once, and the Uyama was my best friend and rock for 8years. but I handled it poorly. Reading Uyama's point of view, after 8 years, I realized I kind of fucked up. I've been reading Yaoi since 2004 and I realized, even though this manga may just be 'Anoher Manga' for some, that I'm a bit of a hypocrite for reading same-sex romance but as a girl being confessed to by someone close to me, it freaked me out to the point where I quit my job, I quit our dream, and fled to another place and completely let go of art and creating. I still don't know, but this manga made me reminisce. Gosh.
I thought being scared shitless was just a yaoi trope. Is it really that scary to get a confession from the same sex if you're not homo?
hmm maybe ? everyone is different and if you are friends with someone for so long it could be a shock. I ( a girl) got confessed to by a girl that didnt really bother me i like guys and i like yaoi :D i have a really good friend (male) and he had a crush on me we meet in grade 5 and he confessed i was troubled because we were friends and i just couldn't think of him that way and i am sure it was hard for him , i did tell him that for me he is just a friend and maybe even more like a relative and that im sorry to hurt him like that i am sure it was not easy for him i was really scared if i dont return his feelings our friendship would end and at the same time i was scared even if i tried to go out with him and my feelings for him would not grow and we break up that our friendship would be over as well so i understand the trouble they have getting confessed by a friend (lucky after 12 years we are still friends and recently he told me he liked both guy and girls so yes maybe i am pretty open and don't worry about same sex things because i have friends that date the same sex or that like both sex i think as long as they like each other its okay( well to tell the true i even like storys if they are related if its a cute story)but of course it different in real life i feel sorry for those because that something that cant happen at least in this time . even i myself had some friends that i really loved but i was just soo afraid to hurt others or myself if the relationship would become weird and so i never told them. now i regret it .loving someone but staying friends is really hard especially if the said person is talking about their love life and you trie to support them i still hoppe to find someone that i can open up to and be happy with but until than i will read manga and dream :D
That's sad, but I think this is one of the things that I look to for relief about people meeting up after years, whether it involves me or not. It's that people grow up and their perspective matures. But then, it also makes it more disappointing when you see adults still being radically unreasonable and unpleasant.
I guess if you've been friends for very long it feels like you're siblings, that's why it feels weird. I don't have many friends, I had two close friends in college, one was my bf and the other was a girl who on the night before graduation asked to make out. I obliged. I have no siblings and everyone outside my family is fair game XD
I have to say though since then I've been approached by people who I don't like as persons and don't think are goodlooking and that's what really puts me off enough to try to put miles and miles between them and me.
Yeah, but your 'scared shitless description' is another eye opener for me bec. It's hard for me to admit being scared of people or anyone can harm me. Like UkeLover said, our relationship is like siblings, sisters. I met her when I was 15.
It's hard to find someone who accepts you for everything. I always have two groups of friends Group 1: The ones who are into social stuff, parties, aesthetics and then Group 2: ones who I can talk about 'Conspiracy theories', 'art', 'books', who I can go camping and adventures with. I'm particularly closer with 2nd group bec. They know everything about me and not judge. I'm stubborn and childish. But this person doesn't just accept me, she inquires why I like a certain stuff and really cares about EVERYTHING I did. Ex. YAOI. People will either pretend to be curious or be disgusted and judge.. but she asked why I like them and let me tell the story.
So even if people were saying she was into me, I didn't believe them and turned a blind eye cuz we talked about guys, and she's like a sister.
Almost 8th year of our friendship, a guy i like at work asked me out. That started it. We, +2 friends had an overnight and drama began. Drama involving me, annoys me so much, but she was really confrontational and forceful.. bottom line, I didn't handle it well bec. I didn't want to believe her feelings were that strong. Maybe I was scared at that time bec. I need her, we all need that best friend, but at the same time she doesn't see me as a best friend.. I'm not good with personal stuff.. that incident made me feel like a bad person.
No way, noone's a bad person for avoiding a relationship that's become uncomfortable. I even ditch normal friends if I find their 'values' are too much in conflict with mine. I love the saying that we choose our friends, unlike family, and since my family has never been able to see eye to eye with me, I want to make sure the people I call friends are accepting and somewhat like-minded.
But I am kind of opposite in the sense that I want my SO to be someone I can call my best friend. I developed a crush on a best friend in high school (it was stronger than any crush I had on a guy before) even though I am not homo it may have been a 'prison effect' since it was an all girls school. I would be delighted if a best friend and I could be together forever, or if the person I am going out with becomes my best friend. But that's just me, everyone has a right to the relationship that makes THEM comfortable. It's needless to waste time in regret though, there are more important things in life.
@UkeLover Great point about choosing your friends**.
You sound self aware and like you've been through things! Haha. I haven't evaluated my actions before this person. Ive turned down some people, but since this person isn't 'Some' people, I feel guilty because. I've turned my back on 'love', eventually friendship? Your words about choosing friends reminded me of a quote "You can choose the love you think you deserve." Not rushing anyway.
Haha I didn't know that quote but I like it. Yeah am actually quite jaded from the whole romance aspect of life. When I was growing up, my dad used to quote Gone with the Wind saying 'it doesn't matter who you marry', as in Scarlett's dad telling her that land is more important than a guy. I didn't agree then but I have to agree now. Statistically, one guy's as good as another and there are no heroes. Scientifically, love is a reaction that can be reproduced in the right circumstances. Doesn't mean it can't be craved like a drug, or used to alleviate some withdrawal symptoms. People who go overboard on it are weaker (even though I'm here reading about them just to feel warm inside :P)
OK, so it's true what they say evil people are smarter than good people. Lol. Why Mr. Policeman would you go there unarmed! How do you not have the means to even UNDERHANDEDLY have a gun?
And also, am I the only 1 earlier than the actual notification, bec I wasn't notified that this was updated, I just checked it out randomly.. as I do every week, then after 2 days I'll get notified.. hul
Thats true!!!!
it's with me too...
i got an update of a complete manga that i had already read, so there was no new chapter...
Oh well.. that needs to be fixed.. I'm manually checking mangas I like, like Saezuru Tobi WA habetakanai, bec. Notifications may be bugged..
Ideas for yaoi are like so advanced, like this. Lol. Zeus sent this man to earth to stop human reproduction by turning men gay and all men he fcked falls in love with him. HOW ORIGINAL can you be? The art isn't justified by that cover though. Then there's all killing stalking, saezuru tobi...., Docchi da..., It fuels my desire to direct a decent yaoi film like Saezuru tobi WA habetakanai soon.
Plus yaoi readers are the best. They have a sexy mind, yet very understanding, compassionate, funny, opinionated, smart and logical.. artistic too. Yeah.
