To readers,
I humbly accept the criticism that several scenes in Episode 1 contained disrespectful depictions of other cultures and people.
Even if the direction and themes of the story differ from what you may be concerned about, I have decided not to launch the work, as the fundamental limitations of this project's premise are clear.
I believe this situation has revealed my complacent attitude toward human rights sensitivity when handling a specific era and setting, and that my storytelling lacked sufficient care and nuance. I am deeply ashamed.
In my eagerness to focus on the characters, I failed to fully recognize that I was replicating problematic historical contexts and representational tropes found in past works.
I also deeply resonate with the criticism that the characterization in question was not something to be treated lightly within a genre like BL.
What I had told myself was passion for the storiesl, I now recognize as arrogance. I was not as prepared or as careful as this story required me to be.
I apologize for any displeasure caused to you, and I will carry this reflection with me as I continue.
Sincerely, JAXX
now watch ppl try and baby her while she is trying to take accountability.. I tend to be on author’s side for stuff but here its obvious why people were uncomfortable and upset with the premise. Im glad she was able to recognize that as well and I hope she can come back w better works. if she wanted to explore western settings or certain dynamics theres a ton of alternative ways she could go about it



All fixed now. The whole chapter was originally around 600+ mb and I had to reduce the file size until it reached less than 100 mb. Sorry for making everyone wait. ╥﹏╥
