minoru and yamadera’s queer relationship is the focus of the story, and minoru’s journey to self acceptance. queer people are demonized and compared to “monsters,” which makes what this represents extremely obvious: yamadera (the younger office guy) is fully gay. he has accepted himself as a “monster,” and feels resentment towards how minoru wishes he wasn’t a “monster”, aka he wishes he was straight. it’s no mystery why someone who accepted himself as gay feels insecure in a relationship with a self-hating bisexual man.
i mean, ffs, the ENTIRE manga is about their relationship and identity struggles, why are people ignoring that??
We're not ignoring it, we're just horny perverts lmao
Hell ya
Can't wait for doujins of them banging if author aint drawing that AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH
read something else then, it’s a seinen manga. it’s not gonna have wholesome scenes or sex scenes, the purpose of this one is to commentate on how it feels as a queer person in a homophobic/transphobic society.
I mean. It can do that AND have them horizontal the pervert way. They arent mutually exclusive
it can, but again, this is seinen genre. im sure the reason the author chose not to put sex scenes is because of self-proclaimed “horny perverts” that would completely miss the point of the story. even without sex scenes, it’s too difficult for fujos to grasp the story, hence all of the complaining.
You know, I agreed with all your points until you started belittling others just to make a point. That's really uncalled for man. If people *seriously* are complaining about not enough smut, they'd bring it up to the authors or sounded more serious like how your message are worded.
But most of the comments here are just lighthearted jokes of wanting to see more intimacy between the characters. Whether the author includes it or not is still not as important as the messages the authors are trying to convey, amazing plot, and character developments (which, all are what I believe most of us came here for).
Yet, there is also nothing wrong with voicing out hope for more intimacy or be against it so that the message and significance of their relationship can be conveyed more intensely. It's just not right to belittle other's opinions in order to make ours appear 'better than thou'. That's really not cool.
Hard agree with you
the jokes were fine!! i thought they were hilarious. but a LOT of people were serious and legitimately complaining.
You’re doing to much seinen doesn’t mean explicit homosexuality can’t be shown they literally have straight sex in seinen mags lol there are in fact seinen BLs with intimacy they author just didn’t put it cause they didn’t want to not some grand misogynistic reason that fujos wouldn’t understand this. Your interpretation might not even be correct either.
girl me disliking most fujos has nothing to do w hating women, in my experience they completely disregard stories and everything in favor of poorly written porn. looking past the fetishizing of rape/incest/pedophilia in favor of low tier goons is unforgivable. my interpretation might not be correct, however it is a possibility. seinen can show sex scenes, absolutely, even S/A like berserk does. it just doesn’t particularly make sense for this one, as the narrative focus isn’t reliant on it
thank you so much for translating and uploading!!
