If anyone read "Full book" that one bl manhwa can anyone tell me it gets better or no?? Cus I love the art and the design but the plot was so ass and my breaking point was yk what... but I wanna see if it get better and if I should try it again
Nopee I dropped it midway it just no for me—full of rape but the art is great
Overall the story is BS
this ^
What with the sudden new bl? Like most of them contain so much unnecessary rape and jealousy moment it genuinely make no sense. Even story without that it the fact the story or the plot is genuinely not that good. I feel so disappointed and sad that this is what end up being published and push rather than genuine story. Everytime a new bl is published i like to think it might be good but I get disappointed each time.
True, I feel like nowadays authors are obsessed with turning men that think they’re straight into discovering they are bisexual and the only way they do that is by making them get raped, then even after they get raped or end up “liking it” the author still doesn’t say the character might be bisexual instead “straight man with an exception/only gay for you”
I feel like this has been the case since forever
Haven't read bl manhwa in a long time because they tend to get very cliché and typical. Mangas and manhuas are better for my sanity...
so many of them are like 80% smut and 10 chapters long
I miss niche bls
so many of them are just fetish works. no actual story, just 2 guys going at it. and often times the bottom looks like a child. really makes you wonder whats on these authors' hard drives..
Me 222 I miss it so much I feel some type of grief knowing that there could never be any of bl or manhwa that can be the same
the new bl that annoy me are doing a lot of the same things as the old bl (like okane ga nai, viewfinder old) so to me the problem isn't that new bl is failing to meet whatever standard the old bl had. it's that the same old plots, tropes and cliches are being recycled to hell and back. most obnoxious of these being the rape-to-love plot or the use of rape as a smut catalyst. sex sells, and what easier way to jump right into the action than having one party be taken by force? spares you the time and effort of establishing a mutual dynamic and all that. (eyeroll)
around 5 to 7 years ago it seemed that there was a surge in bl doing unusual or atypical things and rejecting standard plots and cliches for more unique plots. not that those were the majority or anything, it seemed like a significant undercurrent. so if you started reading bl around then, I could see how it seems like the new series feel worse than the older series.
i think there's more variety in certain ways now, but the trendy stuff that gets popular is all in a certain obnoxious mold. simplistic, easy to understand plots carried by decent to good art that trade time spent on character development for whatever yields the most smut scenes for the least effort, the more hardcore the better. or at least it feels that way. could be the current reactionary times. so people are retreating into a type of sexual conservatism that seems bold and subversive, but is really the same old nonsense.
there's an axiom somewhere that says that most of the output of any given genre or medium ranges from just okay, meh, mediocre, to downright trash. survivorship bias means the that the good stuff sticks around and carries the reputation of the genre, so it's easy to remember the past as better than it was.
Can I please get a manhwa where the characters dress like "Happy Twogether" or "Full Book" ?? I love love the fashion style and everything and I wanna see if there any manhwa with the same fashion style
My read and want to read is almost back but my reading haven't come back at all? And I been here since 2019 so im just confused bc other ppl reading is back and Im lowkeh getting paranoid I was wondering if anyone is experiencing this
This is very normal right now for many users, not just yourself. The restoration and bug fixing process hasn't finished, lists are not expected to be fixed or even remotely perfect right now. :)
Mine is like that too- except I still haven’t gotten all my want to read! Just try to be patient! For the meantime you can create a list on Mangago, that’s what I did
Okay! Thank you! Its hard rn being patient cus im so paranoid
Omg my shit is slowly coming back im actually gonna cry out of happiness
Bro... I had 6k read all that shit and reviews GONE
will it come back I'm scared o didn't even complete writing them all
It will come back no worries.
o my goodness thanks so muchghhhhhhhh
weirdly i can see my reviews for things i had on my list and all the tags and all but it says it’s not on my list so idk
same mabey it will be back but will take time please I wish it's back I still have my favorite list gladly
sorry, is this common or sum? all my lists and reviews are gone too
No it's not common. I been here since 2019 and this never happened. There no way all our manga are gonna be back bc one of the data got all chipped away. There no way they will recover that. I rather have the time they took off the comment section than them deleting everyone manga.
if its true I can just wait and hope all my data is back
I know this is like a ass plot but it's there like bully x victim trope that actually decent?
friend or faux kinda

Oh dangun
Your ryan
I need a GL manhwa like Mizi and Sua from alien stage but with a happy ending </3 or not bc yk it's okay
I feel like a lot of the newer BL manhwa recently have been genuinely disappointing and it honestly makes me sad. So many of them rely on the same exhausting tropes such as non consensual scenes, random second couples that somehow take up more screentime than the main couple, overly weak MC, toxic/red flag ML, and drama that feels forced just for shock value. It feels like so many bl focus more on being “intense” than actually building a meaningful a story.
I love "Define the relationship", "passion: Raga", "kiss me if you can", "turning", and more. Even if some of them have flaws, they still feel memorable because the relationships actually have depth, chemistry, and development. I miss when BL stories focused more on the connection, character growth, and well written dynamics instead of just trying to be shocking or dramatic all the time.
I strongly agree manwhas nowadays are more toxic, its like the more toxic the story is, it will gain more viewers
But here are my recommendations!
The manwha thats similar to good communication:
