IMO if ur wanting to read a green/healthy trope, heres one of many: https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/our_sunny_days/ bc this story is not n probably will not b that n that’s ok. i feel like the author alr established that in the beginning so there will b more toxic, noncon scenes to come which i personally look forward to. i love me an unhinged, possessive-obsessive pretty top n his stubborn, mean & overly sensitive bottom meal any n every day of the week :p
I love messy, shitty drama too. I ate Waterside Night like I was starving for days, and that was rapey too! But in Waterside Night, we knew he was in the wrong. Here, people are defending him and not seeing this for what it is. This story is just rapey as hell! The top is way too obsessed with sex, and that’s all he seems to know. He doesn’t even talk about anything else. The bottom always says no or doesn’t give permission for certain things, but instead of listening for even a second, the top makes it about himself. I can’t even get into it, and I would have left a long time ago if it wasn’t for the art. It’s not romantic to me it’s weird and non consensual. The bottom isn’t mean, stubborn, or overly sensitive. Are we even reading the same thing? His reasons are valid as hell.
But you do you. We all like what we like, and that’s okay. Oh, and read romance not romantic It’s actually really good I’ll keep reading though. I’m here for the beta and alpha story… the judo couple

This could have been so much more with beautiful art and everything, but the top is so weird! Fuck, he doesn’t ask for consent for anything! And notice how the bottom explained himself, but the top didn’t do the same? Even though he’s the one who’s mostly to blame and NEEDS to apologize too. Even if they’re both at fault, they should both apologize.
But I’m forever on the bottom’s side. I’ll die on the hill that if he hadn’t scented him, none of this would have happened. The top has more control in the relationship he can push it any way he wants. Like the wind...Loving someone and staying for them isn’t the same as needing someone’s cum to achieve your dreams. Even if they’re both at fault, the top is more at fault. It isn’t equal.
That kiss was hot, but the lack of consent is so weird. It’s 2026, for goodness’ sake. We deserve healthy relationships with beautiful art not a weak story where people stay only because the art is good. At least I do
