There's so much I wanna say now that I'm rereading this yrs later. Some of the parts that I felt were nuanced are clearer to me now and I understand things better. I wanna analyze some parts that have stood out to me so bad, but my comments always get cut up on here for some reason? (Pls let me know if that happens to any of yall too bc I cannot figure out why it does that, ill write like seven paragraphs and they'll post but when the page reloads it'll be cut into just ONE
I rly need to reread some parts bc I'm confused on why Vivians brother is so hostile and against Rozenta and his sister being friends with him/her? And the fact that we finally find out that he's the one who broke into the tower?? Like I get being protective but trying to break in is a step too far of being concerned for your sibling. If he were found out more quickly and Rozenta wasn't as forgiving or busy ATM he would've had so many problems on his hands JUST BECAUSE OF THAT and I doubt his family would take his side for that incident.
I forget how many ppl know about Rozentas family having powers but ik they generally know he/she has magic just not WHAT KIND. I think Vivs brother being a magic "prodigy"/high end magic user has soemthign to do with the fact that he suspects Rozenta for soemthing but there's no other reason to suspect him/her in the story that would drive him to be destructive towards the family tower and leave it damaged. Not to mention the fact that he knew he was high end and probably thought he wouldn't get caught and decided to leave traces of his own magic there.....like girlll
Not that bad but certainly something I haven't seen beforewish there was more to see how it'll end.

OK but the young Duke in that one panel where he's smiling was cute ngl. Ik bro is terrible but damm
This alpha is such a loserrrrrI've never laughed, side eyed, and facepalmed so hard at an ABO before. I love red hair Shin, what an unbothered King. I'd literally be so embarrassed to even be around alpha ML bc wth and I don't see no one talk8ng about this but the fact that he tried to play it off like Shin liked him when he barely knows him during his heat and the weird vibe he gives when he said there was no point in taking his meds like WHAT ngl that feels so weird of him to just dismiss the fact that he was trying to take care of himself and him playing up that he could ask him for help but not giving him permission until he asked for it. It's a bit icky, heats are diff for each story but if this were a regular comic and he were drunk would it read the same to yall? Bc that whole scenario was mega sus to me. I wanna know more about Shins friend bc she's cute and an alpha, unrequited love? anyways this guy is such a loserrr
As a victim of CSA who once was once in a similar position, you have no idea how much trust Cirrus now has in Skylar, because it is such a hard thing to come to terms with on your own. Much less to share with someone else. I don't think anyone else who hasn't experienced it will fully understand how much faith Cirrus put into Skylar at that moment. To be able to tell him what happened only knowing him for as long as he has speaks volumes on how desperate he is for any connection and really goes to show just how isolated he has been till now. I still haven't told any of my friends about that part of myself and I'm older than him. And I still haven't gotten the help that i know i need yet(though I work on myself as best as i can) but I really hope moving on with the story that he gets the mental help he needs. Healing takes time and it doesn't just all magically go away because you want it to. It's something that stays with you forever and I hope Cirrus gets a good support system in Skylar even if they don't end up together in the end.
Ok so. The translations already make it hard to even figure out whats going on, not even mentioning how you have to piece together the panels and go backup and reread to put together what the convos actually arebut other than that i was really liking this story so far….UP UNTIL THE PART WHERE THE WHITE HAIR BOY HAS A CRUSH ON THE MC?!?! Don’t get me wrong, its adorable on his side since he basically grew up hating her? But lord do i hope that ship never actually happens. HAS EVERYONE FORGOTTEN THAT MC IS AN ADULT?!?! I dont care if she was young when she died, but she has literally outlived generations of the black hair mc like HUHplease tell me you guys are joking with saying that you want those two to end up together. He was literally like 11 when she saved him, i don’t really think his age currently in the story matters bc she basically kept and raised him along with the other kids anwyays. Thats so icky to me. Idk but some of yall are wild with actually shipping that. Everything else in the story has held up fairly but the translations are really killing it for me so im probably gonna drop this since im also seeing ppl say that the White hair boy and MC are endgameanyways. What is everyone elses take on this? Am i the only one that feels uncomfortable with that ship?!!?
Yall tell me why I thought Elco was Ippoli*o father?!?!he has a similar air to the flashback his mother had but then I remembered that he HAS to have some signs of age with how old they are now so it is not. But then i got to thinking because he shares one too many traits with him….what if his father went on to have other children? I mean, it was basically implied that he could possibly still be alive since the mother was forced to stay with the Cardinal. She herself said she “could not go back” so that leads me to believe that he’s still somewhere out there. He probably could not wait for her forever and had his own family as well. Anyways did yall peep the way he got nervous and blushed after interacting with her
Now hold on. Now that the original daughter is here, what changes??!? Legitimate question because the last time we saw her a$$ she was plotting something with those other people that were attacking
I think atp Hyoudou and Hanaoka splitting was inevitable and bound to happen at some point. I just didnt expect it to be so soon. I feel like Shizuku is alot more competitive and passionate. Something about Hyoudos carfree nature tells me that he just doesnt connect with her on that level and thats why it was so easy for her to partner up with Gaju that one time. He dances to dance. He likes to and it makes him feel good but Shizuku wants a whole lot more than that when she does. He just isnt able to give her that. And im actually excited to see who their partners will be. Im really hoping it isnt Tatara because that honestly really wouldnt make sense, in more ways than one. Plus none of the coaches ever communicated it to him being a possibility so i doubt they even considered him, not that thats a bad thing. They are the ones that have cared the most about communicating the entire time and i dont think they would pull something like that on him just because.
Im also really exicted to see who Hyoudo is getting. But on the other hand im very worried about Gaju since its been made clear that Mako wants to leave dance to focus on her education and future. Its also really clear he’s a bit scared about the change as well, maybe he feels at fault for always blmaing her for their shortcomings? But he should’ve treated her better tbh.
Yall this manga rly has me in a chokehold. Atp im making fanarts bc theres literally no one making any or any content anywhereim gonna add them to my tumblr bc ive been in shambles for the past yr. I need ppl to know about my boi and his struggles
I found this manga when i was in middle school, so to actually finish the story and really understand the characters means a lot to me. I found this during a tough time in my childhood, back when i was in a similar situation to Jeremy himself. I’m a survivor of CSA, and though i had no business reading something as intense as this or anything else on this site, i felt oddly comforted by Jeremy when i was younger. Though i could not fully understand why at the time.
I had only stumbled across it by accident at first, only browsing for yaoi or bl mangas. And then after i lost it(i owned a janky tablet that my perpetrator gifted me) i tried searching for it again. I hadnt even gotten far in the story, but i always reread the beginning up to about some chapters before chp20. I never went past that, and i think part of me always knew why, i just never fully realized it or wanted to admit that i was a “jeremy” myself. It wasnt until i reached highschool after my perpetrator was caught and imprisoned that i sought it out to try and read again. And everytime i found it i would get further in the story and drop it. I kept rereading the story and going past what i left off on and left it alone again, i did this for yrs and was never consistent in reading it. Its now two yrs after ive graduated and dropped it and picked it up again that ive finally finished reading through this story.
Ever since then I’ve been able to process what i actually went through, and as i read the story i caught parts of myself that i saw in Jeremy. It was nearly down to a T, except for the more extreme abuse and the incest. Unfortunately even the mother part, not where she dies, but in the way that she knew as well but kept quiet about it against her better judgement. Even in scenes where Jeremy talks to his therapist i could relate to, except he kept seeing his and i stopped since it was only required i visit one for a yr after the whole ordeal. I also had near nothing to say during those sessions and just felt more cornered. I didn’t want to keep seeing a therapist after the required amount, and i also didnt want to weigh my mother more since the sessions costed money and she was tight on funds after the whole ordeal.
I cant help but feel like Jeremy is a comfort character for me. Even after everything that he had been through. Itd probably seem sad and weird to anyone else out there, but reading Jeremy’s story gave me strength in my situation. Because he made me realize I wasn’t alone. And i know that sounds sad but im thankful for him and his story and that i found him at the time i did.
I always felt cut off and alone when i was being groomed, and it felt worst because people knew about my situation but didn’t do anything about it. Not until it started to affect other people and finally get to the point where they could actually be put behind bars. I still feel a bit of resentment towards those who turned a blind eye, including my mother. And when its revealed Sandra knew, i could feel and understand Jermey’s pain, but unlike him i had to live with the fact that my mother knew and didn’t do anything about it for years.
I still think about those days where I’d be trapped and wait out the hr after school so painfully and hoping waiting for my brother to get home so i could feel safe again. He had after school activities and my mom had work while i was stuck with my abuser after they picked me up from school. Im more aware of what happened to me now, and have been processing it in my own way, I even WANT to find a therapist to help me sort through my trauma and issues. However, my abuser was released earlier this year, about four months ago i think. I never felt so terrified in my life when i heard the news, and my mother was the one to tell me. I thought that even after all this time she’d have the tact to not mention it to me. Im now “grown up” but i dont think my mother has ever fully realized how much it affected me or still manages to affect me to this day. And some things that happened within the pst few months made my resentment begin to resurface and memories that i wanted to fade reappear. I learned that my mother actually had depression and thats what made it harder for her to come forward and say anything, but i still think about how differently things could’ve gone if one of us said something. Actually stopped pretending like everything was fine and look out for ourselves instead of worrying about what other people might think.
I’m fine for now, I’ll finally be moving out this coming year and will be able to escape the city and everything, mentally and physically.
As for the ending, i think for me and Jeremy: for as long ago as the events occurred we are still trying to heal and fully grow into the people we used to be and want to become. I’m glad he didn’t end up with Ian in the end, because as much as Ian tried to help. I feel like he did more harm than good in the beginning and after he learned the truth and treated Jeremy violently. It wouldn’t have been satisfying if they’d ended up together, as it always seems like a cycle of Ian doubting Jeremy’s “love” and Jeremy recalling painful memories only to be put through worst when he has episodes and Ian gets angered by them.
Needless to say, i think I’ve also developed Jeremy’s concept of “love”. Though he has now come to accept things as they are and is trying to see the better side of things after their conversation about what love was or could be. I still struggle with it. I still to this day have not been able to manage to tell my mother i love her on my own. I always try to in my own way, because i feel like the words and just saying it hold no meaning to them anymore. I rather, express it than say it. And i know she doubts me for it, Because she always has to ask.
Jeremy has been the only character ive related to in this way and i find comfort in him and his ending. The journey was painful, but im now glad and happy to see him healing and meeting people and people being there to support him if he ever needs it. This story will always hold a special place in my heart, and I’ll never forget it.
Guys….idk if yall paid any attention but what i wanna talk about is WHY does Eunhyuk’s dad have a picture of Ra-ImLike the way it was presented when he was recalling the woman he was cheating with. It looks like HER MOTHER IS HIS FATHERS OTHER WOMAN
