on top of all the other issues, literally what was the point of them both being claiming to be straight...
another manhwa about pure malicious gay faggotry. i really dgaf abt the abuse side couple but the main couples development is everything 10/10.
hyera couldve been a great ally but instead her whole character and motivation ends up just being malicious gay faggotry personified. but her smut scenes were the highlight of this manhwa i fear her manipulation wouldve easily worked on me evil women are my type fr
how do yall read this wo worrying about the cte the ml’s gonna get???? so fuckin annoying that my brain can’t ignore the brain damage
they never addressed or resolved rui’s whole memory loss/dissociation problem. otherwise 9.5/10
He sleep walk due to stress anxiety depression
the entire first half with naho’s confidence spiraling + his anxiety + the loneliness genuinely had me crying so hard for almost an hour it was hard to even see the screen it was so heartbreaking and so reminiscent of the anxieties and avoidance i dealt with growing up
Soooo me reading throughout those chapters I keep having to take deep breaths bcs it was hitting wayyy too close to home lol!! It felt like I was getting a heartburn
the last couple chapters felt so wattpad straight high school senior teen romance, especially with the ml being an american football player like the mc may as well be a fuckin cheerleader… and every wattpad high school teen romance novel has to have a steamy locker room scene ;) and a character named cole (cuz its a cool guy name)
me during chapters 1-71: omg wtf theres no way bruh…
me after chapter 72: um, okay… (i didn't really have a strong reaction but im happy with the ending ig. i hope it lasts i think it will)
this might be the most devoid of romance bl manga ive ever read like seriously i read the whole thing in one go and i cant remember a single compelling human moment between the characters because they only knew each other for like 3 days and the whole time they both felt like two empty robots acting out their weird randomly assigned personality traits. its almost impressive ive never experienced an otherwise non offensive manga able to take me out of the experience so harshly and somehow manage to portray the characters as really shitty robotic actors. then because the plot and romance were so nonexistant the last chapter really started to piss me off because the author/mangaka kept insiting on pontificating the definition of "love" after repeatedly telling and not showing us the chararters supposedly falling in love. the sub was apparently too stupid and prejudiced to even bother trying to understand his own condition until i guess he suddenly snaps out of it on his own and doesnt even really show or explain why just randomly and silently feels better somehow between the first and second plays?? and he d&s and s&m conflation was just stupid and annoying as fuck... idk i just feel like the characters really didn't fall in love in any emotional way they just kind of grew comfortable with each other but it was an otherwise very physical very contractual b(ds)m relationship which wouldve been completely fine on its own like this manga couldve even been a good showcase that bdsm relationships can be contractual and not romantic at all and be very fulfilling, but instead the mangaka had to instead start to ramble at the end and try to insist that love is too rigidly defined and lets just completely change that definition to now force this weird nothing burger couple into that definition...
