lmao i started this manga feeling honestly like shit and kinda jealous of the mc bc i was exactly like him and the kid who wanted to go to art school but for whom it wasn't an option due to parents and financial pressure (ch 5 hit hard lmao) but now im kinda glad i am where i am because even if i still love producing art and im frustrated that i haven't had the opportunity to learn at a school dedicated to it... Maybe deciding to keep it as a hobby was for the best.. I mean i'm midway through med school so i still want to die on the daily but i don't think i would've survived having my art and my entire personality dissected and put down like that. Art school seems so hard on your self esteem and for having gone through art contests and exams during my teenage years i know how it feels but like it's so magnified in college and i think i would've had a harder time than i'm having now.. Obviously to each their own, this story also made me want to pursue art back !!! I loved how they brought out the dilemma of choosing art as a hobby vs as a career, it really resonated. And even though i feel jealous of the people who actually got to live their youth producing art and learning about it, at least i know i'll always have it as a hobby when i enter the working field, and i'll still be able to take art classes later in a more relaxed context

ngl that "i would like to have sex with you. Would you be okay with it?" hit different.... Consent AND realistic shy intimacy???? This is so sexy. Also not to be weird but i love how the author's artstyle is very particular about nipples and the perineum lmao??? idk usually in yaoi manga things are censored or redrawn with a focus on the dicks but not in this manga!! I find the way they draw and color the perineum so sexy lol that was a weird thing to say whew anyways
Also I love the 70's drippy bubble aesthetics and the 70's detective illustration !!! i really need a story with this kind of setting and visuals now

I'm pretty curious to know why people like incest as a trope? I'm genuinely asking btw i'd love to hear your opinion on it, this is a judgement free zone!

I think most people have a forbidden kink lol, that's generalizing it a lot but that's how the logic works in my brain, for example if you see something that looks tasty but isn't edible and possibly poisonous, your brain may still think it looks tasty. Another thing is that there has been romanticization of the trope in history and to this date in certain countries *cough japan* there has been crack downs on the trope lessening its popularity. But people have come up with alternative spins on it like suddenly they're not related, or they're actually cousins, half sibling etc. I think this has only added to the tropes long lasting life as a literature subject I mean like some other tropes it adds spice to the story and that's what it's there for so I'm cool with it.

i dont rlly seek out the trope or anything, but i suppose it's the forbidden love, adds a little spice to everything or whatever.
I usually bothers me, but i've been continuously insensitive to it, esp when they didn't grow up together. They can't even produce offspring anyways, and also, incest is widely practiced even today (like the whole cousin marrying cousin, etc).

For me incest = LGBT. Both are forbidden in my country, especially in my races cases, you will be in the damn jail and all over the newspaper if you got caught. So whenever I read incest I don't feel it's have any different from yaoi/yuri as it's already seen as the same weight of sin in my mindset. *That's why every time I see others bitching about incest, I feel like, "Owh, so lgbt is alright with you guys because it's legal in your country?"

THIS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE OH MY GOD also idk about sukuna cutting off inumaki's arm this whole thing feels sus https://twitter.com/dame_addie726/status/1355915760099618818?s=19
