i guess these stories really just arent my thing. i just cant get past the fact the ML is a deranged murderer? he casually talks about chopping up peoples bodies while thinking if he should buy the MC flowers, like huh..? i dont get how people would find that hot or attractive it just gives me the craziest ick and makes me wish death on the ML. the stories dragging the “he doesnt know hes a murderer” plot and theres so many tropes that this story uses, theres nothing unique going on. its just another deranged ML playing with his food. story is giving fast food. like no shade, but im just curious why a lot of you like this story? like im not saying that to be rude, im just gen curious and confused. i dont like stories where the ML is some crime boss serial killer (lowkey a rapist too) where he casually ruins peoples lives and then expects us to gush over him yearning for the ML, like brother i think you should be in jail??? formula feels copy and pasted to me as well, nothing new and unique, just slop.
im aware its fiction lmao, i just dont get why its a scenario people would be into. like no i dont find a guy slow torturing and executing another man attractive or cool. but yeah to each their own. its lowkey a me issue because it was established at chapter 1 he was deranged and i still continued because i wanted to give it a chance to see if they handle the topics well, but it just seems like another yaoislop. oh well we live and learn
"are u supposed to be attracted to a dude who chopped up people's heads?" maybe you don't have to do that, u don't have to project yourself onto the mc and pick apart the male lead's morals before considering him as a viable lover. maybe maybe you aren't the mc at all, maybe you're a silent bystander to gawk at their weird ass sometimes scary sometimes comedic dynamic. that's how stories work
im not projecting onto the mc im more so confused why i would want to root for this man to end up with the mc or root for them as a couple, which is like a fundamental part of the romance for me personally. even as a bystander id want the male lead to crash and burn and frankly dont care about how he succeeds in getting with the MC because i dont like him. these mafia stories are always done in poor taste imo and romanticizes weird things i frankly dont like which is why i avoid this genre all together. but thts my preference, and the writing isnt doing anything new either so its just slop for me. if u like it good for u tho
i actually hated everything about this story (spoilers)
The MC literally has nothing going on for him, like zero development. he just yearns for the ML the whole story, so it just gets insanely annoying.
The ML is actually fucking insane. he has this weird hero complex and they really try to make you seem like hes the good guy. “we have to do this legally!!” he says as he bashes someones brains in to the point theyre a vegetable.. like huh? the whole awakened alpha shit is also cringe too tbh. he also just treats everyone who isnt the MC like shit, or will fake kindness to keep appearances. just a deranged individual.
they try to touch on alpha-omega oppression but its just done really poorly… The ML abuses his power as much as the other alphas do, he literally gets away with basically murdering people because hes wealthy and rich but they make you think hes the good guy for “helping the weak omegas





first 10 chapters and i can already see where this shitty story is going. this just plays out like a hetslop but author said “lets make it yaoi” to mask its extremely hollow and boring story. notice how the uke is a guy but has features completely different from all the men in the story. literally why are all the other men in the story taller than him and have the same face shape but the ukes face shape is different. just make him a girl atp. im not saying theres something wrong with having a feminine male character, but hes not even fem, nor does he dress fem. the author just made him look feminine to establish the top and bottom dynamics. it just feels heteronormative. i can already tell the male lead is gonna be “possessive” “wealthy” “daddy issues ” kinda guy who just abuses the uke the entire story, im not hungry! fast food yaoi i fear. luckily ive learned to pick up on a stories red flags and learn to not continue it to protect my mental health. these manwha authors seriously need to get more creative, its just the same recycled yaoislop. pls stop forcing het shit into ur story its SO obvious
