Not just the drooling, the rape part you all mention, but also their romance? I just feel like it is not expressed much. Only the horniness, lack of communication and lack of the fluff. Just feels like they desire each other instead of love each other? Wdyw after a cute kiss on the rooftop you have to fuck him there immediately? No kisses, hugs or sweet convos that would net immediately end up in sex. Instead of curing hayato with love, you are once again showing him that what ultimately every man desires is sex... Ahhhh. No wonder he "suffers" even tho they're together. I hope they both grow up a bit mentally and can be each other procious one in the future. You just feel like fuck bodios with more fancy name and possessiveness desire instead of an actual couple. But let's say I have hope for them, imagining this is the horny and shy teenage era and when they go to college they will mature a bit and their dynamic will advance.
And the art is cute.
Grooming not drooling lol
OMG I LOVE THEIR FRIONDS!!! They are funny, kind, supportive, green flags and UACH OF THEM ACTUALLY HAS AN INTERESTING PERSONALITY?! Finally a bl with bg characters that are rly nice to see and are not a bother lol. In this economy!!! I love this author so much, only started to read their work yesterday, but each manga I read so far was so heart warming and rly thought out! Not the usual tropes at all!!!
Came back here from binge reading a toxic story which left a bitter taftertaste. It is currently 5 am and I cannot sleep. Anybody else coming here for peace and healing? Lol
I've been thinking about why Masumi doesn't want to date Azuki, even though he doesn't dislike him (in fact, he likes him).
If they were to date, he would be in the same category as all the other women who dated Azuki and then broke up with him quickly. I think that because he's special, he can't bring himself to "date" him; he feels he's not the same as them, and that's something he won't compromise on. It's as
if he doesn't see any value in the easy title (dating) that anyone can get just by saying "I like you."
Looking at Azuki's dating history, it's clear that staying in the same category as before (friends) is the best way for him to stay by her side for a long time.
From the moment they met, Masumi considered Azuki to be "within his range (potential romantic partner)," and this remained unchanged even after their long friendship (though he honestly seems to think romance is a hassle, lol). Having witnessed Azuki's long history of "liking someone immediately when they like him, getting rejected, and crying," even when the "ski resort magic" happened, he probably thought, "Azuki's straight anyway, so even if it starts as a one-night stand, it'll end quickly" ⇒ "I don't want to start if it means being categorized the same as all the other women
he's been with." I can also imagine why, despite not giving a verbal answer
, he ended up accepting Azuki's feelings. Judging from the description, Azuki had always been shocked and cried when rejected, but never tried to stop them (respecting their wishes and not clinging to them). But this time, even when Masumi said "no," Azuki didn't back down, stopped him, and told him "I love you," something he had never said before. Perhaps he accepted him because he gave him a clearly different response than the other women he had been with before (= he didn't give up even when rejected).
If there is a sequel, we got to see Masumi's jealousy this time (in his meddling mode), so I'd like to see Azuki's jealousy. I'd also like to see Masumi's close childhood friend appear. I'd be happy if his first love (who is still his friend) was the same person.
Also, Azuki's past statement that "it takes a lot of courage to confess your feelings to someone who's been your friend for so long" will come back to haunt them later on, and I wonder what kind of sex it was when Azuki was covered in kiss marks the second time!? Did he find out the first time that Azuki doesn't remember when he's drunk, and then the second time he got possessive...? I can enjoy even the smallest details like these.
There are 2 more volumes, this is not the end!!!
thats the good news, now the bad news is the publisher went under they no longer continue any new digital release and license between publishers is so complicated often time you cant license a manga already licensed by other publisher even though they went under, now the silver lining they transferred the user purchased manga to rnta so pray that rnta could acquired the license and continue the legacy
Whaaaaaat crazy shit man!!! I guess we can only hope then...
Btw I just finished the 6th and 7th volume and they're sooooo sweeeeeat . And it's not like it ended on a cliffhanger so we could also just take it as finished
Oh, do you mean the english publisher went under? Futekiya? Bc the japanese publisher .Bloom are active I think now that I am searching for it
Yeah the eng publisher, futekiya was melded with its sister site it became mplanet and mplanet just stopped all its digital manga few months ago, as note there were still a lot of unfinished manga under their license including this one
Aiya aiya. Then we just have to translate it, no? I was wondering why so many mangas lately don't have the latest volumes on here
Is that just for the digital manga or there won’t be English translations for the physical copies?
They did say they will focus on print release instead but cant say if they will print everything
╮(￣▽￣)╭
Nobody mentioning, but what the actual... Why does Hanrim use the loofah like that. No scrubbing just as a foamer and then cleaning with hands? Is it because he wants to touch him directly or??
ppl scrub themselves with a loofah??
the bubbles are cleaning, no?
Could be related to hygiene? I've heard those things can easily store bacteria in them, and I can see dead skin cells just getting stuck and not really cleaning out properly. If one's hands are wet and wrinkly enough, that's usually enough for scrubbing.
It might also be bc he's bruised all over and thus hands are a bit more gentle than the whole scrubber itself.
Yesol's body is all bruised up that's why he doesn't want to use the loofah. Additional points for him wanting to touch his body.
He is sooo gonna kill that cactus. If it's wobbly it usually means the roots are already dead XD it is only sloooowly drying out bc it has massive energy supplies. But it's already dead. Iykyk
Wdym he smells of perfume???? Did he...?? I hope he didn't
Did what gangalang
my thoughts exactly
Did he sleep with a woman bc of the things uke told him???
OHHHHH that makes more sense
The speed Haebom used to get up to catch Ho, even tho seconds ago he thought he could not even get up!!!! Catching someone with a broken rib? Standing on your broken ankle?? And not even trembling bc of pain, just anger bc of care for Ho!!! That adrenaline of love and care is what gets me in this chapter
I feel like with different manhwa the stalking would be a red flag for me, dangerous, psychotic, toxic. But here? Cozy. Safe. Clingy. Cute even. Is it because it is these two? Is it because the story with fenomenal storytelling and growth? Because Jake is not typical Korean manhwa yandere cray cray, but more like military inteligent mad type? Or because it is for Shin's safety and not creepy (only a lil bit) stalking purposes? Or is it bc Shin knows and is ok with it? Whatever it is it, makes the red flag green here for me. I guess you cannot judge a situation objectively, you have to look a case by case
Mostly because it's set in a dangerous environment. They not colleges, or alphas or whatever shit they come up with. Here people die, and we understand that it's Jay's way to ensuring Shin's safety, not to stalk him or control him (There is a bit of that too, but it all comes from a security pov)
i’d say it’s also because shin is now in control of the relationship and that he knows jake would stop if he told him because of how down bad he is. maybe before jake would stalk shin but now i think he just wants to make sure shin is safe so it feels different and wholesome
