Can't remember what it's called.
Main traits:
- Fantasy shounen manhwa
- Protag returned from other world
- Protag opens restaurant/diner/cafe
- There are now gates and hunters in his world
- Has a pet from other world that is good at housekeeping
- This kind of pet in other world is too good at their job and supposedly made other heroes in other world lazy
- Cooks bad tasting food with monster meat that supposedly helps with training
Thanks in advance
I've seen some nice old mangas being flooded with more recent 'woke' comments.
"I've read this entire thing and the author is disgusting and all the characters were raped the author is sick in the mind and no one should read this."
I get it, some stuff is horrible but let's say, killing stalking - it's a great work.
Would you turn into a trigger happy serial killer by playing video games like COD? I think not.
It's tanked the ratings for a couple of old mangas that apparently aren't PC enough.
Just shut the fuck up and let me enjoy my sick gay porn in peace.
Rant over.
I agree that some of them r being unfairly criticised bc ppl lack media literacy but let's be for real A LOT of them do deserve the criticism bc they depict things like rape which is then not condemned by the narative at all, e.g. Jinx (this isn't the only one obvi but it's v well known atp so it's a good example) at which point they r normalising these things. Also ur COD argument is a logical fallacy bc most ppl talking abt the effects of reading these types of stories on rl aren't talking abt such an extreme result so ur making a false equivalence. To explain this in good faith, let's say ur rlly young as a lot of ppl getting into yaoi r (or someone older that this applies to) and so u don't have the best understanding of consent. Reading smth w non-con that isn't outright one of them saying "no" and the other doing it anyway may therefore skew their understanding of consent which would then carry on into rl. Or u read yaoi w "milder" cases of non-con/dub-con which as someone w a good understanding of consent would be clear immediately but then u read more extreme yaois which cause u to think that the ones u were reading before aren't actually that bad, therefore normalising the "milder" cases in ur mind. I mostly used SA as an example but this also applies to abuse and other such themes. As a result, the criticisms of these types of stories are 100% justified imo but if u wanna read them no one's stopping u. Just scroll past the criticisms the way ppl w ur mindset say to stop reading it if it bothers u ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍ (sorry for the rant but imo this type of mindset can be damaging)
nah I kind of get it, i'm just kinda
upset that some would immediately deny a good work (great plot) because it contains unsanitary themes.
It's just also sad because I like to see comment sections discussing stupid details of the plot instead of seeing this is rape every 2 comments.
Not that it isn't, but I think it should be logical that separating fiction and reality is a given.
That's the point of a rant nothing wrong with what you said.
Ah nah dude i get it as i said I def agree w u when it comes to some stories (i also like killing stalking like u mentioned bc it does a rlly good job of portraying abuse), i was just also a bit fed up bc I keep seeing brain-dead takes on stories where the writing is ass. Also thx for actually reading what i said instead of replying smth like "nobody's gonna read smth that long" lmao
Hahaha People forget to treat discussions humanely because of the invisible internet wall and just want to use anything as fuel to get THEIR point across.
I try to not forget that because no there would be no progress either side.
Oftentimes it might be the case that both agree but because it's worded harshly or differently both misunderstand.
Have a great day guys (=・ω・=)

Any yaoi or hetero recs where the ML is or used to be a playboy/manwhore?
Thanks in advance!
pearl boy (the whole world is fucked up brace yourself )
gig of the day
I placed Pearl Boy in my want to read, but ngl kinda scared of how fucked up it is and hence have avoided it every time it pops up
Gig of the day is pretty awesome
- borderline (boundary of delusion on here). threesome warning but it doesn’t last for too long
- hit me hard. uke is the whore but i also haven’t read it in so long idk what’s up anymore
- respect for taste. uke is also the playboy. disliked him forcing the seme to slim down to his ideal body shape but rakes do make the best husbands and the virgin slayer sweater is awesome
- alphega. the top has been around to the point his club is basically his hunting ground but everything changes when the uke walks in. i would hold on for a bit and let the manhwa marinate but the novel is complete and it’s a great read
literally 90% of BLs are like this T_T ML (top) always playboy and manwhore when uke is this virgin guy T_T
Protect your purity!
In my Bad
Painter of the night
yeah these are the tws: lots of rape(gang rape), slightly incest, sex-trafficking, torture, murder, drugs, attempted suicide and etc. It also has animal harm if I'm not mistaken. Keep these in mind before reading sweetie(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
Try ' missing pepper case ' , these 2 idiots will stress you out definitely haha
same if pearl boy I can't pick it up to read because I'm scared
I tried all except for hit me hard, so I'll give that one a try. Thanks for the recs!
Alphega is nice :D
Hahaha fair enough, could have specified what kind of playboy vibe I was going for.
I'll try the recs, thanks!
I came across painter of the night years ago, but I haven't touched it since 20 chapters in.
Thanks for the rec!
I read it because of the hype in 2023, I could bare all the toxic stuff because the ml was green flag but near the end ml became a darker and more ruthless person. The rest of what I'm gonna say is spoiler so beware but so the thing is there were twin brothers who contributed to the gang rape of the mc so ml kidnaps one of the twins and gets revenge by making the twin get raped and tortured by other guys. I mean no matter how bad they are, no one deserves to get raped. It was terrible, to think that ml could do such a cruel thing. I still kept reading but the end was so confusing and bittersweet. At that time fans couldn't understand if they were alive or dead but it looks like mc and ml didn't die cuz we got lots of side stories and extra chapters after the end. Anyways I lost interest so I didn't read the sides. If you ask my opinion, I don't recommend it unless you like torturing yourself. It's another toxic bl that got hyped for no reason. There are lots of amazing stories but sadly people don't appreciate them ╥﹏╥
exactly!
I keep getting bamboozled because the cover has changed a few times, and whenever I clicked into it: surprise! it's Pearl Boy!!
don't touch it. i hate that BL. but oh well, that's my personal taste. i don't enjoy playboy MLs with virgin MCs either but you do (i guess so?) so who am i to judge. there's alot of rape/dubcom in POTN so idk.
babe alphega is in my tbr please pray tell, are both leads experienced or am i dealing with the good old Virgin x playboy trope T_T
omg pls read alphega (again: read the novel and let the manhwa marinate a little. the adaptation does skip some of the desire/lust but the current translator is a fan and it’s such a breath of fresh air compared to the mtl fights we often get). both leads are experienced but if you’ve read define the relationship or borderline/boundary of delusion it’s more like that. the uke is experienced just never bottomed before. he treats it like a duty tho bc he’s super respectful to omegas. seme has been around like literally their first meeting uke is scandalized it’s great
ok got it, thats fine, and i read dtr but left it the top give me wierd vibes i couldnt go around it, and borderline i didn't read bc im petty like that and i love nanjo hes so beautiful and i dont think seme deserve him nanjo too pretty if i read i'd be too jealous of seme so i dont read it. nanjo luvr forever i want that man bad you dont even know
I kinda like it sometimes, but not exactly virgin mcs with playboy mls, just playboy mls and any kind of uke.
