I read this manga a year ago and it suddenly appeared in my dream for some reason. Now I need to vent my thoughts on it otherwise i can't sleep...

I don't care what anyone says I freaking hate the seme so fucking much! He's such a hypocrite and a whiney little digshit! I couldn't stand him for most of the story and yea he did get a "good" character development but It was extremely hard for me to root for their relationship after he cheated on mel with the ex bf. It bothers me even more because it was so irrelevant and barely played any role in the story!!! I just can't get over cheating. I tried to look past it when he cheated the first time with some random guy because the relationship wasn't that developed yet but then he cheated AGAIN SO NONCHALANTLY !! At that point The relationship was sooo fleshed out. But that one scene threw me off so much. Every single development up until that point felt useless . After that it was hard for me to focus and rot for him at all. When i read this for the first time this it made me so angry and frustrated. I was depressed for like a the whole day.
And i'm not even gonna comment on his hypocrisy o my gwad! The moment he slapped mel i almost threw my phone at the mirror holy shittt!

Speaking of mel i really wonder if the author has some personal rivalry with him. Every single bad thing that can happen to to person happened to mel. He was abused / assaulted as a kid, abandoned in the street, forced to sell his body for food, got stuck in toxic relationship. He was raped several times throughout the story, almost died (suicide attempt), had all of his partners cheat on him, Got kidnapped and locked in a basement like wtf! At one point it was just hard for me to keep on reading because all the bad things kept happening to one character constantly... Considering everything that happens, it feels like he should be the most mentally unstable character but weirdly it he's somehow the sanest of them all. Every single character in the story was a dick to.him and they barely faced any consequences for it!! I'm freaking mad aghhh


Sorry for my useless rant. I just needed to get it out of my system. I'm extra bitter because i was so invested in the storyline the cheating scene was really the deal breaker for me. Anyways...

Inner peace ( ̄へ ̄)...

No it wasn't useless rant at all my friend ! I feel the same! I dropped this manga midway because the seme was such a big jerk! I can't stand seeing uke being treated horribly. Especially with all those misfortune he already had in the past. My heart hurts for him.

I usually almost never feel the need to comment on how a manga has left me feeling but this story is just built different. I do not want to speak on the crazy and very dramatic plot in particular, just so so so much angst and insane events that make you wonder if the author actually hates Mel or sum!

So do not pay much attention to my comment, I’m not saying anything spectacular or giving an original insight on this work of art!

I was so skeptical at first but, oh wow. I barely have enough praise for this masterpiece!!! In my opinion however, the storyline only starts to get good when they visit Kain’s parents. I feel like everything before that was almost bland, mostly due to Kain and the other supporting characters being just too crude and unnecessarily violent. I get that this is an old story and another era but still!! And don’t get me wrong, it continues but gets more bearable.

The character development that Kain goes through is nice, that I have to say. But for all the pain he put the precious Mel through, I don’t know if I’m expecting too much but I still strongly feel like he still needs to redeem himself! The end definitely made me like him a bit more though so I’m not extremely frustrated either.

Mel’s tenderness, strength and boundless compassion actually INSPIRE me, and never in my life would I have thought that a 2D character would make me question myself so much. His mountains of trauma have never managed to sully his pure heart or fully dim his light, it shows especially in the way he cherishes his loved ones even when it’s not fully reciprocated, and continues to be such a sweet sweet baby. I don’t want to ramble on but honestly his character deserves a whole essay, I’m not doing him any justice by being so brief because he’s just that much of a tremendous cutie pie.

This read is so worthy of your time guys!! It deals with a lot of heavy topics.

Btw for all the avid smut reader, the actual lack of smut makes it plenty MORE enjoyable! I feel like we really get to fully understand the depth of their love and affection on a psychological level, and get to understand how destructive of a weapon sex can be in different relationships/dynamics. Anyways let me stop here there’s just so much to say!!

I won't support his cheating part but he did it out of anger or may be just in wague way , but Mel was very saint tht he forgive him ... But still whole story was such a rollercoaster ...

I really cry It is the best. I'm going to buy the book of this I swear. I think this is one of the like real life story. I can't even explain much how I felt while reading this. All I can say it made me feel a lot of emotions.

KamiSama : Your Yaoi GOD May 31, 2021 7:24 am

this is a must read

NZIGHT May 26, 2021 6:21 pm

It indeed Akachan to boku author work cuz she is the only author who can literally make me cry physicallly me without even realising my tears are coming out , it's bad for Mel tht he has suffered this much but at leats they spend rest go their life together , their time together like "grow old together" their love is very deep .
Erica their daughter she is very much like combination of Kain and Mel , just as how kain ones in childhood used to say he will marry his mother but at least she is saying she will marry someone like their dads and she got blue eyes like Mel .
This manga focuses on many things such as sexual abuse , homosexuality , crime , society etc .the way everyone's perspectives been shown is really goood but very true at the same time it's just Mel couldn't look at his grandchildrens but kain able to , but his love so strong he is such a strong guy that even in tough situation he thinks calmly .I never cried this much but yah ita soo goood and very deeep manga yes thats why it's realistic .
