Their history and chemistry just makes me root for ian and tj helppp LOL they probably won't be endgame anyway so whatever I'll be sinking with this ship ig
It’d be such a happy surprise if the writer makes them endgame. Her storytelling skills tells me she’d make that so right that no one could contest it. This ending up as one of my favorite yaoi’s would solely be based on how she puts the ending together. I like when authors can surprise me by giving me my ship as endgame haha
I agree with you! I do hope she'll surprise us with something like that. Bc the way she built these two characters around each other? they're TIGHT
Maybe I'm not giving Jo enough time yet, but his feelings pale in comparison.
Yes, Ian x TJ are toxic together but that's what makes their pairing so appealing. Not bc of some twisted projections/fantasies of readers on such relationship but because the hurdle is HIGH. The higher it is and how well they handle it, the more satisfying it is to have a conclusion of them ending up together.
P.s. ugh!!! I hate how mangago cuts off my comments into smaller chunks?? Literally have to retype this comment
You are right that you haven't given Jo enough time. How can Jo's feelings be in comparison? You can actually see the difference between the love Jo showed to Ian compared to the love TJ showed to Ian.
I like how the main characters have so much depth behind their personalities. I'm looking forward to seeing their developments <33
I feel like there will be a scene where inwoo loses control and have a breakdown. He's very dependent on Jiho after all (even more than he lets on – the part where he wants them to be miserable together, etc.) Though he does seem to want to move on from that. Therefore, cue the mother's reappearance
The part where dahyeok held the mirror for taeman while he's stitching his wounds even tho he's shaken and confused af omfg
I'd really love seeing the development between nan and guk.
Asagiri's got her own form of *freedom*. She became powerful enough to make decisions of her own volition and yet some mitsueda guy wants to send her off just because she's a disturbance to the island? (bc she's not accepting any customers or whtvr)
Wow! Name me another nonsense plot device!! Now people hating on her bc she's acting like a *bitch*. UH?? Yes she is and rightfully so??? Imagine just enjoying ur freedom after being a prosti for so long then some teenagers ganging up on you so u can be bought off to some sleazy rich mf. Again, shackled to a man.
But then everyone have their reasons right?? I'm personally annoyed with Satoko's mindset. But even that is valid bc of the context of her life story.
i totes get how you feel, but back in those times any extra mouth to feed was a nuisance. esp for the head of the house, if you don't bring any money to the table (as in customers) then you’re useless and worthless. Still it’s weird how she’s on this power-trip
Maybe I'm misunderstanding it but the way I interpreted it is that Mitsueda wants to send her away because he loves or cares about her and wants her to be able to live her own life away from the corrupt island.
I've wondered about that too! It is likely that he thinks that way. However, it still sounds unfair for asagiri. Since it may be quite rare for a good man to *buy* her out of the island.
Even if mitsueda's intentions are out of "love", the possible consequences (on asagiri, if his little plan succeeds) is out of his control. Why sacrifice her freedom for a gamble?
That's why i think this turn in the story doesn't make sense. at least, to me. :") but well. Let's see how it'll turn out!
That I agree but she didn't have to burn that paper (nothing to do with her)
Oh yeah, it was definitely that kind of system huh.
She is bringing in money, she just refuses to be controlled, that's why she is a bother to mitsueda
It's so wild that it was treated as nothing. Even Natsuki passed it off as "hot". Disappointing, but does reflect how minors view sexual encounters with "someone older"
Yeah like I can understand from their perspective not wanting to see themselves as "victims" (even that weird bar dude with Natsuki and well....Chris) but it's strange how they show them knowing it's wrong for high-schoolers to like them as college students but no one around them seems to find the other situation wrong yknow?
EXACTLY!! So uncomfortable :")
So apparently, team homophobic family wins. That's some reality check alright
I mean, since last chapter we're all assuming what exactly caused tak's bruises
