"People have preferences about what they like to read in fiction. The same way one might like fluff; another might like more fucked up stuff, and that's okay.
Isn't that why people like to explore villain stuff these days? It's not my cup of tea and I haven't read that genre so I'm probably making a wrong connection here, but my point is, people like to explore not so savory stuff, from morally questionable, wrong, to straight up taboo. There's nothing with that. (Note: This paragraph resonates so much with me. Like Killing Stalking. Don't like that. Don't wanna read it. But fucking hell was it popular during its time. Still don't understand why it was. Like they said though, nothing wrong with that)
>>As long as you're not dumb enough to mix up reality with fiction.<< (Note: PREACH!)
Anyone with a brain would understand that liking one thing in FICTIONAL media is not indicative of what kind of person you are, your morals, or what your stand is towards REAL things, media or not. In the favorite words of argumentators of this topic, people who liked fucked up stuff in fiction don't "condone" it in real life. (Note: Excuse me, Crue Trimers.)
Those who don't like this stuff are valid, but should take a look at themselves before judging those who don't. People have been exploring dark and taboo media in fiction for ages. Did it change how fucked up people became? As far as I know, the answer is no. And if you say yes, send me a link to the international published paper, thanks. It's almost like correlating the video games and violence thing. If you agree with that, then yikes, but if you don't, then take your hypocrisy with you and leave.
Don't get me wrong, those who like this stuff does not make one more "seasoned" in any way either. They just like different things."
To add to this, if you don't like something. Avoid it. Ignore it. Pretend it doesn't exist. Whatever tickles your fancy. Don't go to a seafood resto just to yell "I DON'T LIKE SEAFOOD!" and leave. Don't go inside in the first place, bruh.
*fits your fancy, FUCK. Sorry, English isn't my first language.
Or, go inside, see that it's all seafood and you don't like seafood, and then leave.
Thank you for speaking the truth, but people will still write hateful comments on stuff they don't like, no matter how hard we try to convince them how stupid it is. When someone is an idiot, no one can help them.. That's what I've learned through all these years of reading yaoi. So I just stopped paying attention to them. I read incest, rape, pedophillia. Do I support those stuff or do I look at my brother in a romantic or sexual way? No, never. I can make a difference between reality and fiction. I like to read normal fluffy cute non toxic stuff as well. I'm also a straight girl who's religious and goes to Church every week, so who tf can say anything about me when they don't know who I am. So just let triggered stupid twitter teen girls talk whatever they like
I'm still laughing over the fact that the one "good times" Dan could think of in that penthouse was playing board games with Joo. Like seriously, this bitch needs a good slap to the face, enough to make his ears ring, so he realizes how fucked up his relationship with Joo is. I swear to fucking god if that man just say "hey, sorry for accusing you" or to that degree and Dan would bend over saying "YES! I KNEW we're in love! Fuck me!" I would off myself, write a note saying why I did it, and then spread the video to the internet.
Haha like his fond memories last for about 15 seconds cuz that almost the exact same amount of time Dan could bear with him :)
Did Cale not have a talk to the Dark Elves that he will bring Mary to the surface with him? I remember Tasha crying when she heard that. Or was I just making this up? Or is it coming next chap?
Probably next chap
it's coming next when it's time to leave
...but I found myself not even hard reading this. I guess it's because the main characters have the mentality of six year olds? Idk, man. Plot's stupid, characters're stupid, the art is good, this whole misunderstanding trope is goddamn stupid.
I have been reading a lot of rape genres and it doesn't bother me the slightest since i know its fiction
It's not the rape that bothers me here. In fact, rape usually turns me on. This? This pissed me off actually lmao.
Oh no yeah literally same. I think it had to do with how asahi handled the wrongs that kei did to him where he wud dip into blaming himself and keis actions kind of affirming it and also kei just blatantly going dick crazy and blaming asahi for leaving him when he didnt leave for shit? Like idk some of it wasnt matching up in certain ways where it lowkey glorified the pet slave aspect while completely throwing the initial rape out the window and never rlly acknowledging it just saying oh thats why without apologizing. Idk usually im not too picky on it bjt it felt like it was lowkey saying thr rape was ok when its not,,,? Like the rape itself isnt the issue but just how it was handled and the characters never acknowledged how grave tht wrong was. Idk like it wasnt used properly as a lot point either
Plot point*
Yes! The characters are just plain fucking stupid, that's what infuriates me! It's like the author is a doujin artist first time going into a manga series.
Ngl, kinda bummed that Commander Ashiro is relegated to just another damsel in distress. But oh well, typical Japanese manga/anime I suppose.
personally, i don't think she's much of a damsel in distress. considering how strong #9 is, i think every commander would've become weak when face-to-face with him lol. also, she killed off a strong kaiju in a badass way right before she was captured by the bastard, so, she's not totally being relegated!
The misunderstanding trope is just SOOO overused. It's basically Deus Ex Machina at this point. Girl, just talk to him. You KNOW Gojo ain't gonna talk about it, dude's an anxious wreck. God, now we have to wait for AT LEAST 5 months (4 more chapters) of this shite until one of them say something. FUCK. Sorry, just had to rant. About the trope, not the manga.
Why 5months? Did they announce somet…
Oh sorry. I get it now hahaha..
There was this manhwa I forgot the name of. Basically MC met a guy in his apartment building, and they became temporary boyfriends basically. That's all I remembered without going into the "I think it's like this and that", I'm sorryyyy, if anyone know the name would be appreciated!
this is probably not it but gonna shoot it out there “tomodachi complex”
I don't remember if it's a chinese or korean manhwa, but it's definitely not a manga. Also it's not b&w. Thank you, though!
was it 'Crash Into Me'? i read a lot of manhwa so im not so sure but if u can give me a lil more details, maybe i can be sure what is it u are looking for
Crash Into Me was the closest to what u are looking for tho
It's not Crash Into Me. Okay, I am getting into the "I think this or that" territory. But iirc, MC has either an obsessive bf or ex, and he basically asked the guy he met to be a temporary boyfriend of sorts to drive the obsessive away. Also, it's all colored. Best thing I could recall, sorry if it's not enough.
.
I think I found it, it's Lovers Next Door. Haven't read it yet but the premise is hella familiar.
THAT'S Birang's "pitiful" past?! Oh, author, you flopped so hard with this bitch, I pity you.
