The ending they got is what they both deserve. Minhyung did NOT deserve to end up with Yijae after everything he put him through. Minhyung’s backstory is sad and his yearning for love was completely understandable, but the choices he made in the pursuit of love were just ruining things more and more. And Yijae obviously cares for Minhyung but not in a Stockholm Syndrome kinda way that oddly happens a lot in psychological BLs. I thought that was very refreshing, especially after so many stories have weirdly romanticized kidnapping and confinement. It kinda teaches you a lesson too: Minhyung did all that because he loved Yijae, but instead of asking him happy, he just ended up making Yijae resent him, drove him crazy, and landed himself in jail (death row no less). Nothing good comes from selfish choices, even if they’re made in the name of “love”. It’s not a happy or sad ending. Just fitting.
I’m glad we all agree this is an ugly ass fucking artstyle. Like if I asked someone to draw what they think stereotype yaoi looks like this would be it. The bottom looks like a baby with alien eyeballs and weird lips and the top is somehow skin and buff. Very pointy too. But geez this is a train wreck, especially compared to the artist’s other works
Why are so many people here excited about “Stockholm syndrome” or saying “we love rapist ukes”? This is not sexy and it is not empowering. You’re just romanticizing rape for all kinds of characters now. This not “blank” in dominating fields, it’s a man raping, imprisoning, and torturing another human being. This is why people think BL readers are degenerates….
All of you who want a poly ending are lowkey so immature, and this is not a dig at poly relationships. It’s that you’re greedy and are only focusing on the sex between Nox and the MLs. Liam treats Nox like he’s stupid and values him mainly as a sex object, Yuri has some kind of unsolved conflict that led him to SA Nox after Nox clearly lost his memory for 8 YEARS about said conflict, and Derrick is still trying to figure out if he is willing to rebel against the social hierarchy to be with Nox. This plot line is a mess and a harem ending is too cliche.











Silence is NOT CONSENT. Saying “yes” or actually nodding your head “yes” is giving consent. And I would say it morally only counts if you’re in the right state of mind and you’re not being tricked or manipulated into saying it. Like if the victim is asleep and doesn’t wake up while being molested/SAed (prime example here) doesn’t mean they “liked it” or “allowed it”. This is so basic bro smh. IDK what the author, Yuma, or the rapist-coworker is on but that’s some bullshit. He did not cheat, he was SEXUALLY ASSAULTED!!!
