The circumstances remind me of A Cruel God Reigns, a manga where terrrrrible things happen to the main character. Are we as an audience suppose root for this relationship? I find it... just very creepy and unsettling. But I have read enough yaoi to think that they are going to end up together...
I thought it reminded me of A Cruel God Reings after I finished reading the first chapter. The second, however, made me think more of a revenge plot, especially the last line (the kid being a sheltered boy). I guess we have to wait to see how it goes.
I don't think this is the kind of manga that makes you root for the relatonship, bur rather hold your breath an especulate. Will the guy make the MC suffer? Should we prepare for the worst?
plse anything but not that , i dont want another step father like Gerg god i remember i was kinda broken while reading it ... that was too much for my then fragile heart..
This is a better story than I expected. I hope we learn more about Heejae. As of now, I can't imagine a happy ending with any pairing. Is it all updated now? Gosh, I'm going to have to wait...
The dialogue is hilarious. The awkward love story keeps me waiting for the next chapter. The art took some getting use to, but now I kinda enjoy its style. I'm glad someone's translating this again!
I don't even know how to think about this one. If anything, it's interesting because it presents questions that I feel totally uncomfortable thinking about. Is Harada saying this relationship is okay? That society is destroying their happiness and that we should let them be? Or is this all the main character's brainwashing? Mai, the outsider, seems to approve. But on the last page, the main character repeats himself, trying to reassure himself that he is not wrong, which might indicate that he is not sure himself.
I think I just want to forget about this one.
I am scared to think more of this manga... but I did feel something was a bit off tho
I think provoking our thoughts on this vile issue was the point of this manga. Instead of sweeping the issue under the rug of "NOPE. It's fucked up, let's not talk about it shall we?". This just presents one of the many outcomes that could happen to abuse victims and it's an outcome that society doesn't approve of. It makes you think how many of these people live in that shadow and for some reason makes you feel that uncomfortable twinge of sympathy towards them.
Totally agree!
AMEN!!
Ooh I like this continuation of the first couple's story. Even if it's all just built on misunderstandings. The first couple is the only one I like. The other chapters were fun to read too, but mostly in a twisted way.
I feel bad for Mizuse. Hey, am I the only one who reads his name as 'misuse?' Cuz, well, he's being misused?..
lol...good one
DO NOT FEEL SORRY FOR HIM. Three devils. Not two.
What makes you say that? Or did you read ahead?
Did not 'read' but saw the raws. I'm not sure exactly what was going on but Mizuse was complicit.
Okay. Please shhh... for spoilers. I shall mentally prepare myself for a possibly devilish Mizuse. ;]
I feel like I've read a considerable amount of yaoi, and I feel like all these where like nothing I've ever read before. I didn't necessarily like all of the stories, but they were all pretty different.
The art is pretty, but I'm disappointed in the story. I know it's short, but it just didn't work for me.
This is probably one of my favorite crossdressing mangas. It's light on the fanservice, it's funny, and some of it is genuinely touching. It also didn't feature any of that save-from-a-sexual predator nonsense that I commonly see in gender bender manga (I just find that plot device to usually be tasteless and crude). I think that the author probably could have had more ideas for the story that could have extended the manga but I like what we have.
All in all, a fun read.
I already know there is no point in me commenting and people will not like this but.. Judging by the comments about Hyunjin here... I know people on this site are young but I really hope that they know this was not a depiction of a happy relationship! Manipulating your partner and purposefully ruining their relationships with others and all the possessiveness is not acceptable even if they apologize, like that's not normal. I don't think the author intended for us to actually want him to end up with Hyunjin, it's very clear that Jungyeon is not okay at the end. Well, I guess like Jungyeon, hopefully people will figure out that this is not an okay relationship in the end... ...Anyway, I think this author is very good at writing this type of dramatic story and it was a good read, even though the ending was so heavy handed.

I agree. I actually wanted him to end up with Sunwoo. I didn’t like Hyunjin from the start because he kept a part of himself closed off even when he knew that Jungyeon loved him. And then he was so possessive and manipulative in order to keep him like some kind of pet.
