badx's manga / #Drama(134)

| 2.5 STARS | if ragebait was a story this would be it like literally the only reason I'm reading this is to see if knox will ever be able to be free because he's innocent fr like he somehow had his achievement of being the second princes spy informant stolen by some purple haired rando we know nothing about so far and just casually got taken as a slave by his old little boy servant who he had as a teenager that he kicked out of the house for what I know is good reason but knox just never told Khalid (little boy servant/seme) that he did it for a reason which I'm assuming is that khalids safety was in jeopardy living in that house CONSIDERING THE FREAKING LORD OF THE HOUSE/KNOX'S DAD WAS A RAGING PEDOPHILE WHO REPEATEDLY ATTEMPTED TO GRAPE KHALID like bruh ik knox did a pretty cruel job of getting him out of the house (telling him take a brooch from the madam and then saying he never told him to take it for resulting in Khalid getting 100 lashes and exiled from the house) so that was pretty dumb of knox but he's still mostly innocent and definitely doesn't deserve what he's going through rn also the second prince is a creepy loser as well because even though the first prince was supposed to be bad and assassinated the emperor and attempted to assassinate the second prince which like I said knox prevented by secretly informing the second prince of the situation LIKE I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY MANAGED TO USURP AN ENTIRE KINGDOM BUT CANT FIND OUT WHO ACTUALLY SAVED THE SECOND PRINCES LIFE ALSO WHAT REALLY PMO IS THAT KNOX ISNT EVEN TRYING TO DEFEND HIMSELF HES JUST BLAMING HIMSELF FOR WHAT KHALID IS DOING TO HIM AND THINKS THE PRINCE KNOWS HE WAS THE INFORMANT BUT THREW HIM OUT ANYWAY LIKE UHGNGNBGNHHHH RAGEBAIT AND IK ITS GONNA TAKE FOREVER FOR THE PLOT TO ACTUALLY PROGRESS IDEK IF KNOX WILL EVER BE FREE BUT ILL HAVE FAITH IG anyway that's why it's 2.5 stars and I wrote a lot because this story really pmo Edit: so there was this one comment that was like 7 paragraphs long and it concisely spoiled and analysed the 100 novel chapters and boy oh boy is it bad like omg yeah eventually they do find out knox is innocent but not before knox tried to kill himself from the horrors he experienced like this comment was so detailed when explaining the rape scenes bruh and they also explicitly said that there really isn't enough plot either and that their personalities don't make sense sometimes because when Khalid/the emperor who is the second ML are raping knox their thoughts are like they enjoy seeing him suffer and stuff but when knox is like casually looking out a window or sweeping the floor khalids though are like lovey and not mean so yeah the comment goes really indepth and explains everything so I'm not gonna reword it but this story can't be considered to have a good ending but the manhwa will probably be a bit different from the novel as it has to be compacted n stuff also the commenter is Blackie and they said the story made them feel icky for weeks afterwards SECOND UPDATE: so like on newtoki it goes all the way up to chapter 35 so i basically forced myself to read it and it does seem to be going according to that long review comment but the pacing is obviously quicker and season 1 is done and season 2 is currently being uploaded

| 3 STARS(?) | i remember reading this a long time ago but i dont even think i finished it because it was in my want to read before writing this review and I dont feel like ever reading this again cuz its not even that good and the art is like average at best so im just gonna say its 3 stars and thats that ill only remember this for the panel of the guy walking into the room with the uke laying on the ground spread eagle lol

I DO NOT remember reading this at all so I'm gonna have to reread it lol and I only found it because I wanted to read UNHOLY and I also read the other story by the creator BEAST and their art is really pretty so I'm gonna reread it eventually it has unfortunately been dropped by the author though so I won't expect any updates

| 4 STARS | my god it took me way too long to read this bruh like its only 30 chapters but I got to around 15 on my tablet then forgot about it then remembered it and reread it which only rlly took me a week but danm anyway this story is pretty epic I do love the soulmates red string of fate thing and there is a HEALTHY amount of boning its like every other chapter fr but the art is really beautiful and the boning is enjoyable however this whole story revolves around drama and hong kihoons (uke) misfortune which was caused by yeon (seme) in their past life and the new season will be drama-filled too im sure unfortunately but I still really love the characters and their crybaby personalities are so cute like yeon is the definition of a crybaby seme and hong is a himbo yippee!1!!!

| 5 STARS | man theres only 7 chapters but I'm so happy that each one is like super long this story reminds me of like lost in the clouds art style x no home story x payback x back to school it puts so many of my favorite tropes and genres together (school life, psychological deep story, childhood friend seme vs new seme, beautiful amazing art) it's so wonderful I legitimately don't regret at all reading this till I felt sick because it's 5pm and I haven't slept yet the story is very well done and I love the back to school essence of the childhood friend gangster asshole top (go gyeom) vs the new transfer who has slowly gained a bond with baekhee (yang ill woo) and I haven't even talked about baekhee yet- I love his character so much and I genuinely feel so bad and hate his father indescribably much like I love designs like his where they look simple but have this aura kinda similar to taeui from passion but I'm already dreading the future drama because it's going to be awful I'm certain go gyeom the childhood friend that is sociopathic and the only lifeline that baekhee has is going to be a major problem like he constantly reminds baekhee that he will take him to Seoul after they graduate and take his name off the family register and get rid of his debt but it's so overly optimistic in a fake fairytale way because go gyeom knows saying this will keep baekhee hanging onto that hope and giving in to gyeom's demands (despite this I'm glad their f'ed up unequal sex friend relationship fed me for the moment before baekhee and yang il woo manage to get it on) in yang il woo's case we don't know much yet but he's searching for a spot in gicheon *TOWN NAME THATS MENTIONED EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER* where I'm assuming he found a dead body cause he keeps saying decrepit shit but anyway I think this sufficiently voices my love and interest in this story and briefly explains the relationships ty for coming to my ted talk i can barely see right now so it's time to you guessed it- read something else

| 2.5 STARS | idk got to chapter 15 because this artist made the masterpiece yang il woo and I so I though it would be good but it's lowkey mid so I'm dropping this just way too much drama and characters annoying even though theres probably a redemption arc and alot of people actually like this its just not for meee

| 3 STARS | spin off of the horse and lion from ookami-kun and this one was rated lower than ookami kun which i agree with after all usami was the whole reason why i even liked ookami-kun and usami isnt the main character in this story also im disappointed because this story was already worse than ookami-kun and they literally showed everyones animal form except for the horse which i really wanted to see :( but the extras werent bad even though the story was mid and full of annoying drama

so i didnt fully read this i just mostly wanted to know who was endgame since there were like 5 different love interests for serinuma (shinomiya the norweigan twink, nanashima the great blonde cook, yusuke the playboy short haired tall guy, mutsumi the guy who reminds me of a horse *tall and middle part haircut*, and finally nishida the super rich illustrator and fellow fujoshio / the only female love interest and who i was personally rooting for) the true endgame ends up being mutsumi which is fine in my opinion and i think its really cute how it was foreshadowed since the beginning because mutsumi was the first/only one to recognize serinuma after she lost weight and he was always nice and chill so even though it was unexpected i still accept it after all shinomiya and nanashima end up getting together in the end lol thats what the last spin-off chapter is <3 also yusuke ends up becoming nishida's editor/manager for her manga making but also all this happened in the last chapter 55 (like mutsumi decides to go to a university in kyoto and serinuma marries him before he goes then follows him after she graduates then they eventually get married and have a kid all in one chapter so the ending did seem very rushed lol) anyways most people say that the anime was better because the manga gets pretty off track and loses the plot considering this is literally a reverse harem lol but i guess even ohshc has endgame too but i wish there was a few chapters for each love interest and their endings so everyone can be happy <3 (i do still think the canon ending was happy though and i love that shinomiya and nanashima ended up together) :D

i remember reading this and i think it actually wasnt that bad but extremely smut focused and i dont think i liked the seme because he was always mean even though the main plot is about bdsm i felt bad for the uke because the seme was this evil twink but since i cant remember that well im gonna add it to the reread list

currently at chapter 8 and somehow its mid but good at the same time but i might only think that because im tired and dont feel like reading right now lol anyway hopefully i dont lose this to the endless tabs because it seems interesting skipped to chapter 15 because i kinda thought i wouldnt read this again and i think 15 is the end and asha turns albert into a vampire n stuff anyway i guess this should be considered dropped but its not even that bad im just not in the mood to read it lol and its very short only 15 chapters so im not able to get invested
