madd's manga / #great plot(152)

Honestly I don’t know whether to give this a low rating because it’s unhealthy and toxic romance or higher rating because it’s a masterpiece in psychological fiction. If I looked at as a romance, they both suck, they deserve each other. Maybe it’s best to look at it as a psychological thriller, as I can HARDLY see these two as anything romantic or loving. If you look at it from Jesse’s perspective it is horror. Imagine losing your memories with only a creepy untrustworthy man in control of literally everything you own to trust, to the point you somewhat fall in love and give yourself over to him, only to find out he did betray you, and you go through all that only to find out that it was all VR that he trapped you in. Law should go to prison since he drugged, kidnapped, and put him through severe mental stress. They are pure obsession and definitely deserve my ‘so toxic it’s a biohazard’ tag. I kinda like stories like these where they’re both the bad guy and no one is innocent. The author is great at creating plot twists and keeping you guessing to the point where you can’t trust Jesse’s. memories, investigation, or judgement, Law’s memories, or even the staff. At some point I stopped trying to figure it out and just let the story carry me. I love stuff like this we honestly need more of it.

This had me laughing from beginning to end. I was legit in tears. I absolutely love how expressive they are. Almost a majority of these panels could be used for memes. They're such a great couple aside from their occasional fights, and Inseok definitely needs anger management classes because he sounded reallllllllly toxic, but the way he delivers it is hilarious. It reminds me of those ‘NAH’ YT shorts by Jaiden Williams. Especially when he got the chair to take Gyutae out lmao. Their dynamic is so fun, and I liked that they got to enjoy each other’s cultures. I wish more BL comics were like this. 8.5 out of 10

Just cute, fluffy, squishy, mushy, romancey good vibes. Nothing wrong with that. :3 9 out of 10

I remember that I really loved this manga, but I only remembered the healthy couple that was a sequel to the other one and not the side story.

YALL. THIS WAS SO WHOLESOME I WANTED TO CRY, AND I DON'T CRY READING COMICS THAT EASILY. I love Upi's work so much. Their art style, combined with their incredible stories, is fantastic. I loved seeing them get to know each other, learn about their trauma, and get engaged. It happened so naturally, which is super rare in BL comics. They also had great chemistry outside of their s*x life and such healthy communication. Also, a super underrated thing is that I'm glad they had friends and a life outside of each other. Seeing them introduce each other to the people who mattered, their friends and deceased family members, was so wholesome. Strangers to Friends to Lovers is my favorite trope (although it might be more like s*x friends here). I loved that it was revealed that they were each other's firsts for everything; everyone doesn't get that lucky. I feel like it's the right length, too. Their story progression was perfect for a short comic. Sometimes, these short stories can feel like they end too soon or rush through everything, but this was just right. ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
