So it goes from amane introducing nagi to Saoniji(?) then nagi gains his trust by working for him then tells him amane plans to kill him, then amane brings snj to the warehouse where they beat him up. For some reason I thought that nagi worked with saoniji before and then amane went to introduce him, not knowing that they worked together before
Not even the fact that he kidnapped someone, but the story just brushes it over. It was so sudden that i thought the chain around his leg was just for comedic purposes(like how some chibis add probs to demonstrate the situation, like how the chain could’ve been a representation of how he’s stuck in bed all day or smth) but no he’s actually chained up ToT.
Not complaining about the smut, I don’t really care. But I feel like it was so out of nowhere. I’m not sure if this is just me because it’s been a while since I’ve read this, but I feel like there should’ve been more romantic buildup until they had sex. Or maybe they could talk more about their feelings for each other, considering that John kind of just “admitted” that he values black hair guy(forgot his name already) more than mcee.
right like I’m not one to pass up on a well done smut scene, but this just feels so out of character for them, there was barely any emotional or romantic tension built up to justify them suddenly jumping to third base, and it feels especially jarring when the entire appeal of this manhwa is its slowburn romance and the way the plot develops through their character dynamics, the gradual buildup is what makes their relationship so appealing, but it feels like the author threw the plot out the window for the sake of a (rushed and almost awkward) smut scene. If the scene had actually been warranted through their existing tension and progression it could’ve been so good, it just feels lackluster and disconnected from the entire story, would’ve been perfectly fine if it was just left at a makeout sesh at most

Honestly one of the best apologies I’ve seen in yaoi, (not a high bar to be honest). But even though he did take himself accountable, the fact that he still raped blonde(?) guy and kept him captive are something that can’t really be forgiven with one apology. I know the story will probably end with them together, but I really hope blonde guy doesn’t outright forgive him and takes more time.











Whenever I read this i get reminded of that one panel about bisexual people. Not saying there’s no stigma about them but sometimes I call wang zixin the evil bisexual
