The only good part is the kids because kids are cute, alpha is horny and a predator and the oemga is annoying and needs a backbone. As much as I didn't like it, there was still some times that it pulled at my heartstrings and I hate that.
The crazy thing is that Danwoo could tell them apart, he just didn't know Hajoon had a twin. So when Hajeol was deceiving Danwoo, that was just Hajoon acting weird in Danwoo's eyes. It would be crazy to think theres 2 of your partner or a doppelganger has repla e your partner just because they were different a few times. But Danwoo had notice pretty quickly, he just didn't have all the pieces to complete the puzzle.
Also, about the rape. I was glad to finally see a victim beat up their perpetrator and not completely throw the traumatic act away. I can kinda get the sex scene after, but I hope they treat the situation delicately and appropriately. They still have time to redeem themselves. If Danwoo doesn't have some PTSD or the brother gets forgiven, I'm gonna flip out. I'm so tired of rape in practically every genre be used as a plot device for the ML to save or help the MC or bring them closer together and pretend it never happened. Then they completely portray the act and the damage afterwards poorly.
Side note: I really lkve the author's chibi style, super cute!
I love how mixed everyone feels about this story. Personally, I really love the story and the couples, but it's interesting to see how other people don't and why. I love Yuna the most, so I was really happy when she got what she wanted and be with Rio.
Although I am a sucker for wholesome romance, I really want a story where Yuna moved on by the time Rio realized his feelings and Yuna didn't get swayed by his confession later on. Or Akira got back with her ex. Or the distance of being in America caused Akira and Kazu to break up. Sometimes a bit of realism is nice in these stories, because it shows the readers (especially the teens) that just because you break up it doesn't mean you won't ever be happy again. It also shows that you don't need to be with the same person to feel happy again, or you don't need to be in a relationship to be happy.
While I love this genre, sometimes I wish there was slightly more realism at least so it can teach these lessons to the youths or make these lessons they are bound to learn easier. In the end, I'm glad all the characters are together and happy. This will always be a five-star read for me ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~ <3
As of right now, this is probably the healthiest aplha x omega pairing I've read.
I first read thus as a teen and I really loved it and wanted them to be together forever, but now that I'm older I'm seeing a pattern and I don't hold the same sentiment.
When they broke up and when he went to New York, I think they either should've stayed broken up or had dated other people during that time. I've noticed, even outside of yaoi, the romance genre loves keeping first loves together. While I love it and think it's super cute, I am dying to just see an actual romance where there's more than one partner. And that when they are in another relationship, they are still in love with their previous partner.
Honestly, I love the story as is, but as a previous comment said, the plot and storyline is getting repetitive. I think it wouldve been cool had the author explored the break up more and had them have other partners. Anyway, they can serve this plot line to me for centuries and I would gobble it up everytime.
There is not one healthy relationship in this story. It gives everyone "happy endings", but in an actual happy ending. All victims end up with their abuser and all rape and crime is just forgiven???
Inukai and anji were cute and probably the closest thing to a healthy relationship, but personally him complying with setting up a gang rape is unforgivable to me. Even if it was to protect anji, lowkey wished they broke up.
Kuze and kusakabe toxic couple, even though I still lowkey love them, romancing overbearing partners that don't respect your boundaries. There was not enough change or action to change in Kuze for kusakabe to forgive him. Bro just said "I just love too hard and scared to lose you uwu" after sexually assualting him. gtfo
Fuck Karino, I knew they were setting up he was doing all of this to protect azusa, FUCK. OFF. If he really wanted to do that just keep him as a king wtf. All he did was rape him, but nooo, everyone really has to be a good guy underneath and they have to have a happy ending together. Then azusa gets his revenge and then he's unsatisfied??? FUCK. OFF.
Senzaki and tatsumi were one of the least toxic relationships, but I really think their story ended when he left. I still liked the couple, but it felt like something that stays in their childhood. Maybe them being together looks healthier, at least the pain in their relationship was mostly consensual. Senzaki being violent is red flag to me, especially when he saw tatsumi stopping him as a betrayal.
The side couples ere dumb and not needed especially when THERE WAS A PERFECT SET UP FOR A YURI COUPLE!!!
Kanako and kyoko were literally such a cute couple and the author did nothing with them, nothing canon at least. You're already writing 38 chapters of horny gay teens raping and traumatizing each other, the least you could do is include a cute yuri couple. I don't get why some of these yaoi writers are so scared or something to include a bit of yuri. Gay men are okay but not lesbians???
I'm just going to pretend this series ended when it was only up the 26 chapters.
Death to everyone but atsumu, kanako, kyoko, taisho, haruto, and angi. The only cute and wholesome characters.
And a wish to a true happy ending to all the victims not some "they were in love all along" bullshit. Hate when predators and victims end up together and it's not like they have Stockholm syndrome.
