lilithespark's manga / #Rape(85)

I would’ve liked this more had both the stories NOT kicked off with a literal rape/dubious consent scene! The author has to be insane for repeating that same, ass trope. the first story was pretty rushed, and i can’t say i enjoyed it all that much. i liked the pairing, though. the second story was much more fleshed out! i def liked it more than the first, but it would’ve benefited from not having rape and expanding on the leads’ past together. this was just… bad. not the worst. but worse than average.

i love this mangaka’s art style~ the premise is very dubcon-y but im kinda into it for some reason. Update: this should have been a psychological horror with the ML quite literally breaking and entering the MC's house and then sort of (?) raping him erm.... but the MC was okay with it. In the end, it was a mutualistic relationship... plus the smut was hot. i think that aspect saved this manga from being a thriller. it's not a story you should really think deep about. they were happy in the end, so good for them ig 5.5

i tried to like this. I really did, but it’s hard when the leads are stupid and the fact that irrational decisions/misunderstandings are what move the plot. How am I supposed to like their melodrama of a love story when I don’t like either of them? why did the author have to make the MC such a pushover with his “unrequited” love crap? the ML is a jerk for more than half the span of the manhwa. The ML is supposedly 32, but he acts half his age. Plus, writing is so ass like why tf was the first rape scene just glossed over. In chapter 58, the ML rapes the MC after he was SAed (he didn’t know, but that doesn’t excuse it one bit). the art has to be the only redeeming quality of this manhwa. this genuinely sucks ass. i don’t understand the hype at all

yk what this is rly interesting. it goes deep into the systemic side of the omegaverse. very good commentary on feminism and patriarchy.

201 Yk there’s usually no coming back from sexual assault and RAPE, but this manga manages to do it? And it doens’t frame what the ML did in a positive light either. It’s a stain on his character and something he deals with as part of his trauma from parental neglect… Doesn’t excuse what he did, but I like how the story doesn’t just ignore it. I really love their dynamic after the premise is out of the way, and the smut is pretty good! The storytelling is on point at several moments in the story n I can really feel the characters’ emotions! A surprisingly enjoyable read.
