have not read it and based on the things im getting from the comments, it's best to leave it at here. but ughhh knowing there's a sequel makes it difficult to pretend like i dont need it hhhnngg
clearly read the sequel-- cried as per mentioned in the comments. if you're hesitating to read the sequel or not-- dont be a wussy and read it. you'll cry but like cry for something beautiful, you know?
I think the sequel was really good but uhmm sob
the sequel was really good and gave a really good crying session for a lot of us. i read it at night and had the best sleep in weeks after sobbing so hard over it.
i really like age gaps, even more so when the older one just radiates wisdom and maturity so ahhh i really enjoyed this. it's not the bestest but it's definitely worth reading.
reading the comments and having people call it dumb or on crack makes me ???? like i genuinely enjoyed it?? lol idk man but seriously this was great?? the pacing was a bit fast but i guess that's what happens when the chapters are short and there's only 10 chaps in total but i really liked how the mc went through with his life (it's unfortunate that they didn't end up on good terms with his friend after he rejected him but at the same time there's circumstances like that too). also i was surprised that the teacher didn't take the opportunity to immediately fork his just graduated student like finally an adult who tried to not let his libido get the best of him.
really what did i miss that others didn't like it so much tho? was this reuploaded and the prev content was whack or???
That’s what I’m saying I just came from reading a manga where all the plot was fucking rape to justify the smut and everyone was like “ow is not that bad” like???? This time it feels excellent bc it was the uke fantasy, also THE TEACHER WAITED FOR HIM TO BE FULLY GROWN??? That’s so good
righhhttt?? this was such a breather away from the common theme of r*p* as plot device (something that i've honestly desensitized myself of at this point ://) so i was so confused at how most comments here didn't really like it as much. sure the pacing was a bit fast but aside from that it was actually great??
Consent is always the best!!! also the way I just have to ignore the dumb rape trope is also kinda disgusting but there is nothing a can do at this point so I got you bestie
seriouslyyy~ it's sad that we get excited and happy over consent in these works when it's literally the bare minimum (more like a must in sex) but yeah that's what happens when r*p* is dressed in different ways to romanticize or make it "okay" when it never is. there's so much more conflict that can be fleshed out instead of centering the growth of a relationship around developing from a dubcon to "they're dating so no must mean yes more" sex
i completely agree! this was such a refresher considering most of these types of plots have non-con / dub-con content whereas this was just really wholesome from start to finish & is highlighted really important things too (consent & mindful of age) ! idk, despite what some ppl might say, i think it's a really well-done story given the number of chapters it spanned. (i wish there were some extra one-shots tho :/)
i was really surprised that the comments didn't really like this as much as i did. almost felt ashamed that i enjoyed it. but i re-read this soon after i read it the first time and really it did a good job at working with a plot without banking on the problematic tropes. and yes if there's anything bad about this it'd be the lack of after story extras :((((
seriouslyyy i sorta dropped this (waited until there's a lot of chapters piled up so i could binge read it but sorta forgot about it) bc of the change in the main couple focus but wow im so glad i got back to it.
did not think gunhyung and seunguhn's story would grow very steadily?? organically?? liked idk why i didnt like them very much at first because reading it now their relationship developed really well in the story and i really like the chemistry between them too. seunguhn was annoying at first but his character was fleshed out really well until i grew fond of him so that was nice. and wowowow, gunhyung is like the fictional character actualization of my dream guy tbh. his maturity and wisdom but still keeping that playful teasing quality. the second couple's relationship is definitely one of the most healthy and wholesome out there.
this was everything fuuccck. idk this was like the amalgamation of the bits i look for a series :''') it's beautifully drawn and the plot is wholesome, characters were lovely and were decently fleshed out, the pacing of the story was just right for the amount of chapters and ahhhhhh just everything about this is beautiful :((((( hopefully someonw picks up the sequel because they're such a lovely couple and it'd be so sad to miss out on their story.
i love this huhuhu
this series sometimes make me forget that it's a smutty centered story because of all the fantasy/adventure vibe it offers but this episode sure reminded me the very core of this story and im not complaining at all
3 mos will feel like 3 weeks during this parallelogram so it's okay season two will come. it's okay it won't be long. it's okayಥ‿ಥ
a real dang fucker truly never knows how to quit ಠಗಠ
wait what is he about to do
i read the prequel first, unlike some people, and i was like "based on what the comments are saying, it's smarter to not read the sequel because it sounds like it'll be painful", truly this was painful. but it's relentlessly beautiful.
while reading (clearly crying), i thought "it must've been so painful for tomohisa to finally find home and love in someone and have it taken away from him-- if it were me, i'd rather die" and as much as im a sucker for happy and fluffy moments, weirdly (for the first time ever) i'm not angry the extra we got was such a conclusion.
this was really lovely to read (tearfully so and i like reading through tears clearly), it's painful because you feel so much for tomohisa's character. idk why but i couldn't curse out hideo as much when he was being a hesitant motherfucker, probably because i didn't feel it was right when i was rooting for tomohisa to be happy. this was such a great piece that showed how no one can really define what makes you happy but yourself. hideo hesitated because he felt like he couldn't give tomohisa the genuine happiness he deserved, but clearly tomohisa knew what happiness was for him-- but to have the person you love hesitate when you're ready to go all in will slowly consume you.
dang it my head's all over the place, i'm still crying-ish but ahhhhh the part that hurts most has got to be the bit where tomohisa says he wished he never met hideo. he must've been hurting so much (like duh?) oh and every time moments from earlier in their relationship was brought back, like the lifting of the curse-- yep my heart clenched hard to make sure i still cried out tears.
anyway. sure we wouldve enjoyed extra chapters that showed their life together but i'd like to think that it's just for them to keep. i do know they were happy on some days and braving it out on other days when their love felt shakey. sure it's sad to think hideo lived 20 years of his life without tomohisa but as tomohisa requested, hideo lived 20 years for them both.
wow i wrote so much and im still crying. dang it i love this manga so much.
