I've read this several times now (including the sequel) and I never quite get any chemistry from them, even when they are older.
I feel like some of these characters aren't reading the title of the manhwa they are in: "Don't Mess with the Puppy!" and yet they go and mess with the puppy anyway
I've been reading so many manhwa lately where the characters are big and muscle-y, so these characters look rail thin now . But these are the exact kind of characters I sought out when I first started reading BL manga. My, the way perspectives have changed
God, I can't get over how breathtaking the art is in this. It takes me a lot longer to finish a chapter simply because I stop to admire the scenes. The amount of little detail that goes into everything is amazing. This goes for the author's other work as well. Just plain gorgeous...I don't have the words to properly describe it other than perfection.
I really hope the hidden identity doesn't last too long. I want a legitimate reunion! Though His Majesty is clearly suspecting something. I theorize His Majesty will reach the right conclusion before Abel is able to reveal himself. That, or Able is gonna have to break out the nickname "Aple" to prove himself
So, about Mi Ok's weird questioning with Haebeom. She's either:
A) Trying to get Haebeom himself to admit to having a boyfriend, without outright asking.
B) She herself is facing her own sexuality struggles, and, again, isn't sure how to go about acknowledging it, but seeing a possible ally in Haebeom.
or C) she's battling with some innate homophobia. Judging by this story, if C were to be the case, I couldn't imagine it being super bad or long-lasting drama, especially not from Mi Ok's character. She's known Haebeom for a while and likes him, so it may be hard to come to terms with someone she cares about being in a same-sex relationship, especially in a country that isn't as open to the idea as some Western countries.
Personally though, I'm leaning more towards A or B.
I never expected THEE Captain of the Silvermane Guards to be here! My worlds have collided, with HSR showing up on my yaoi feed (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ Keep'em coming!
While the BDSM is a nice touch, I think I would have preferred it if the misunderstanding was cleared beforehand, and then they decided to try BDSM. But that might just be me
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore this manga and always will, but, at this point, it needs to end. It needed to end before the whole Akihito having amnesia imo. With the way the plot is moving now, it just doesn't feel the same. I can't remember how old I was when I began reading this (probably middle school) and I am now 29, so at this point, I'll read all the new updates, in hopes of seeing a happy ending some time soon.
I'm debating hard on dropping this now. I looked past the weird body proportions, and the slow build, but I cannot stand cheap misunderstandings just to lengthen the plot. Idk why characters in Manwha/Manga simply can't listen and always have to run off, yet when someone is clearly gaslighting them, they believe every word. Don't get me wrong, misunderstandings in plot can be done well, but IMO this is a case of it being done poorly.
I find myself reading all of these, even if they are reposts. I'm just here for the smut (づ￣ ³￣)づ
I don't understand characters that can not put their foot down. They know they're headed to a bad situation, yet allow themselves to be led somewhere with zero witnesses. They were just in a room with tons of people, at any point, he could have slipped in with the rest of the crowd when the brother wasn't looking. The last place you wanna be with someone who makes you uncomfortable is being alone with them. I know the niceties are partially a cultural thing, but even then, there's gotta be limits. This is strictly my opinion as it frustrates me to no end.
I would rather wait for quality translations than read MTL. MTL are practically unbearable to read, as they don't make any sense, while bingsoo cat cafe's translations bring character to the story.
Personally, I can't stand them. I used to read them, but now it's an instant "no" from me. This means I haven't been able to continue Wet Sand（/TДT)/ Like, if I'm going after someone who just can't make up their mind between me and someone else, I'm not wasting my time, cause clearly, I'm not worth it to them. But that's just my opinion ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I can confidently say, this isn't the worst thing that I have read ╮(￣▽￣)╭. Honestly, probably not even in the top 10...
I know this is a hot take, but I'm genuinely curious if there's anyone else who has the same/similar view as me. So, here it is: I don't care about secondary pairings in BL manga/manhwa. Like, I skip them until the main pairing returns. For me, I'm reading the manga/manwha for the main pairing, so for another couple to be thrust upon me in the middle of some drama, I don't care? I've been reading BL for over a decade and I can only think of two secondary couples that I actually prefer over the main, and those are 19 Days, and Liveta. Otherwise, I skip. I've heard people gush about the secondary couple for BJ Alex, and I did try to read their story, but couldn't. Maybe if I reread a series, I'll delve into the side pairing, but even that is rare. I'm just curious if I'm alone in this?
