saw a spoiler for this one and just got so disapointed... i feel so lukewarm now whenever i receive a notif for it... oh well, guess it'll be one of those we don't wanna read anymore but also never part ways with ik
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so the spoiler is that the endgame couple is going to be mob x the high school kid (sorry, I don’t remember his name), and I was sooooo disappointed by that! Honestly, older guy x high school guy is such a popular trope in the yaoi world, but I was really excited about the possibility of Mob ending up with the mind reader guy instead. It was turning into such a great and interesting plot with a hint of comedy to it!
Mob’s personality together with the mind reader guy’s personality felt so refreshing and fun, and may I add, it even had the potential to be really sexy. I was so happy to see something different for once instead of more of the same. I’m not hating on the author’s choice of couple it’s more that I’m disappointed to see the possibility of something new in the manga/manhwa world get demolished by such a cliche, of the endless persuit off one of the parts until they eventually win the other one. It just ended up being more of the same
yeah, sadly it seems like the author isn’t very interested in pursuing the Mob x mind reader route at all... all the endings seem to lead back to hatano. “It’s always you in every universe,” this, “xxx years later,” that... I’ll leave some topic links here so everyone who’s curious can draw their own conclusions, but yeah, to me it sadly feels like everything is leading up to the cliché route instead

Thanks for linking those I’m sure it was hard to get those all together !!!
Mind reader x mc would have been funny and cute depending on how the author cooked with fresh ingredients but oh well haha. I’m as disappointed as you with this cliche route like if mc were to get with anyone realistically it’s someone who A.doesn’t idolize him B.knows about the bl world situation C.relates to him with struggles he has as well….fuck I need a beer
As long as the author still has the idea to set the comedy timing, the manga still has a lot of fans, and the publisher still wants this comic, we don't have to worry about the ending. And comedy manga has a lot of plot twists, although I would be fine if Hatano became the endgame, but what if the ending reveals that the MC is still single until the end, lmao
i read the manga for so long, and in fact- the mind reader shared great dynamics with Mob-kun, and it was obvious that they weren't going to end up together. It wasn't about who shares the best dynamic with Mob, but about who fits Mob-kun better in such a story. it would have been a simple plot if Mob ended up with the only one who knew about his true self. i think not ending up with a mind reader was a good decision and ending up with Hatano was a bit too straight, though.
Hey everyone! This thread is so lively lol; I'm having a blast seeing everyone's contribution to it. But yeah, I just gathered some comments that seemed to have the same train of thought I did regarding the direction of the story in my original comment.
I've been reading yaoi for years, and mob ending up with hatano honestly wouldn't be shocking, bc (especially in) japanese yaoi authors love the trope of "young love that stays devoted throughout the years." I don't mind it, but as I said, personally I've seen it done time and time again, and I thought mob x mind-reader guy would be a fun new take and more my style! so i just find it a bit bland lol
you guys are totally right abt not taking the drama as canon (even tho i haven't watched it), especially since the original source isn't even finished yet. Personally, however, I wouldn't be surprised if it did end up going that way!!
so i really like this story but personally i'm getting a bit bored of courtney always being the one in charge, especially since i really liked the ch richard snapped and took over...
so i was wondering if one of you my dear friends could recommend something like this story but more... balanced? between the couple?? yeah. love this but would like a more balanced dynamic
(also on the same note of getting bored i can't help but chuckle everytime courtney courtney's eyes do that thing where they get small (kinda of her being in the zone? mad? like it happenned sooooo much just in this chapter!! lol) )
(also 2 for the friend who said richard looks like a teletubie: fy !!! now i can't unsee it!! lol)
That’s the dynamics of their relationship. Richard is a sub. 100% He does not want to dominate her. He wants to be dominated by her. That’s their relationship, so you won’t see him in charge.
For Courtney, this is good. She lacks confidence in herself because of her family and the way she was treated by them and still is being treated by them. This relationship helps Courtney to build her courage and her confidence, and allows her to see herself in a more positive light. It also allows Richard to let his guard down and be himself with full confidence in his partner and their relationship.
The only way I see Richard ever dominating or taking control of the relationship from Courtney’s hand is if he has to protect her, or if she permits him to do so, and no other reason.
Like the person above me said, Courtney being the one in charge is their dynamic. He wanted someone to dominant him, someone he can submit all control to. That's quite literally.. the plot of this story. But if your looking for something more balanced and less BDSM heavy, I recommend "The Broken Ring: this marriage is bound to sink." Ironically the characters have the same physical features (blond hair, blue eyed ML and black hair, green eyed FL.) The main couple are switches, sometimes FL takes the lead and sometimes ML takes the lead. Their relationship is also a little similar with the ML wanting the FL's attention (being puppy-like around FL but being cold to others.) I will add a warning, the plot touches on a lot of sensitive themes.








They have a lot of quirks in common even the tidying up before/ after sex. Warms my heart, I love both Shane and sangwoo sm
