I read a comment that says they were meant for each other so I thought it’d be toxic x toxic but I read the whole thing and it was some bs bro I thought there would at least be an apology or groveling arc or at least some kind of indication the bottom was just as crazy as the top in the extras but it’s genuinely all the bottom placating the top and having sex with him this is so buns
Also I feel no indication that they actually like each other romantic it genuinely feels like all sexual attraction. And the bottom isn’t even crazy or psycho he’s just a hacker who wants money and he’s smart and suffering some type of weird Stockholm syndrome for the top cuz they had a whole argument about the relationship power imbalance only for the top to go ahead and threaten to kill him the next chapter.. just skip the whole story and make a one shot of a crazy prison guard fucking a prisoner at this point no development whatsoever… the dialogue says stuff like “I’ll learn” blah blah blah from the top but the actions are otherwise..
Any mangas/manhwa where the ml/fl treats their love interest badly and then regrets if a lot with alot of apologizing and groveling? Can be bl/stright/gl. I need to make up for the manhwa I’ve read where forgiveness is won too easily.
Ah yes “black lotus”
“The substitute relationship”

So far I don’t understand the low rating. Yes it’s a darker theme but objectively it’s written well. The author actually depicts rape as rape and psychological pain as real pain with real effects. Maybe written well is a stretch but it’s definitely written better than a lot of these shallow rape filled BLs they glorify it to the point readers don’t even realize or acknowledge the severity of it and those are rated highly. No hate but I wanna know why it’s rated so low. I’ve seen straight porn doujins with sexualised rape higher than this.
You've already pointed it out the reason. It's cause the story contains r@pe... and while some other stories which glorifies it, the high ratings might've been because at first they thought it was good and forgot to change their ratings as the story unfolds the toxic side. And yes, this story did write the SA and r@pe as it is and the psychological pain but we'll see in the end of the story cause spoiler alert; heard the uke ends up with the seme. And I guess some readers here in this site are tired of seeing the same shitty story that they probably dropped this, and if they ever rated other toxic one high, I can only assure you they probably stick around because of the art.
But honestly, it depends on how the author/story tries to paint and tell a story with depiction of abuse and SA... for me, as I've read a lot of toxic stories and some are really disturbing as fck, the only thing I can say is; it's too much but I stick around cause I wanna know what the mc will do next. I wanna see some revenge arc, ngl.
If he seriously ends up with his rapist I’ll have to take back my rating. That’s a waste of building up such a good reason for the mc to never reconcile with his rapist. But I feel like painter of the night is similar and painter of the night has a 9.6 while this one has a 8.4
He will it is in the raws
I agree in the early chapters it was so traumatizing as a reader. To me it seems it’s going to be a story where the top falls for the bottom but the bottom will never come to love him because of the trama and impact he had on him
