TiredTM's manga / #trash male lead(11)

Me before spoilers: Holy shit, the art and coloring is PERFECT Me after spoilers: Ah, scapegoat second lead who's obviously way better and HEALTHIER but doesn't get the girl. Of course, the rapey, abusive, two-timer does... do authors get off on angst or what?

Wow, I did not expect the story to be utter trash. What a huge fucking waste of the amazing art and sex. All the fucking characters were just straight up idiotic trash and I threw up in my mouth a little reading over Benny and Carter's bullshit. First, Benny and Carter scheme to have Carter drug and rape Aaron then spread it online so Benny could play victim after their divorce. This ended Aaron's career. Aaron for some reason isn't even upset?? He then starts to like Carter?? Then the truth came out that Benny was repeatedly cheating throughout the relationship and Carter egged Benny on to divorce Aaron and all that toxic, illegal shit. All the while Carter was fucking them both and tattling to Aaron about their schemes. But then Benny and Aaron start liking this absolute fucktard, give their asses to him, and want a 3P relationship. But Ch6 just ends with Carter being bored and wanting to fuck some side character. FUCK ALL OF THEM STUPID HOES. Gave me a brain aneurysm. I could roll around in different type of toxic waste and come out with less cancer.

This story is t r a s h that someone threw glitter on lol. First of all, I love ABO shit - the alpha x omega pairing with their pheromones, heat sex, going feral blah blah is very enticing to me. I also adore this art. Absolutely beautiful character design for the omega, the alpha is hot (if a bit cliche) and all the supporting characters are good looking too. But man does the plot suck a dirty toe. I'll get right down to the problem - shitty character logic, development, and reactions. As the story is now at Ch 17? ish, the plot before it is basically the uke was thought to be a prestigious alpha but turned out to be an omega, falls from grace, meets this prime alpha esque guy, the two hit it off but run into a roadblock when the prestige of the alpha's family bears down on the "questionable" pedigree of the omega in a terribly sexist setting. Unfortunately, this story follows the typical uke/omega has no backbone route and the omega just collapses emotionally and mentally. He doesn't want to fight for his relationship (which is fine imo), but worst he doesn't fight for himself. He decides to go with it, run away, until the alpha gets him. Then, he wants to break up (which is also fine) but finds himself not really wanting to go but not being able to stay. He stays for day after his assault, then reluctantly agrees to leave when a character shows up, but then changes his mind and goes with another. In which case, my eyes rolled to China. If your character can't even make a decision for himself, throw him out jfc. Then the alpha is even worst. His whole personality is "im hot and sexy with personality issues of being cold and asshole-y" and decides to just RAPE the omega for like a whole ass day. He literally displays psychopath behavior and gets PISSED that the uke says he wants to leave instead of consoling him, stopping his (the alpha's) shitty mom, and COMMUNICATING like a NORMAL person. I- The fucking author had the audacity to make it "it's rape but the uke also mentally kinda liked it" absolute BULLSHIT. Don't make your victim emotionally dead, physically traumatized (he really flinches around alphas), but then be all "oh no worries, he loves him so its ok! <3." Seriously, fuck you and fuck that shit. I'm just gonna stick with it to the end to see the dumpster fire through. ALSO DID I MENTION THERES A HUGE PEDO (LITERALLY) AGE GAP BETWEEN THE TWO?? THE ALPHA IS A WHOLE ASS ADULT AND THE FUCKING OMEGA IS A KID - A TEEN K I D. AHHAHAHHAHA

Back at it again with shitty ways to start a relationship + no communication and half-truths. Whoo

Where the fuck is the development?

Threw up in my mouth a little re-reading this. None of the characters are likeable. The seme straight up stalks the uke and then blackmails uke into living with him while the uke continues to be this sad, little door mat. And the cousin - jfc the entitlement. First he comes in and tells the uke to break up with the seme, then he calls the uke to tell him to come back. I would've told the both of them to fuck off and then filed for a restraining order jessuuss.

This author back at it again with the shitty semes. Why do I bother. The uke is dumb af with literally no self-respect, getting strung along by the walking embodiment of an STD while all the other characters egg them along. I just threw up in my mouth a little holy shit.

Semes is a straight psychopath. This is an unhealthy relationship glossed over as cutesy or whatever because they have kids together (from rape) and the seme is a good looking princely (criminal) dude. He puts tracking devices on the uke without consent, stalks him throughout the whole story, shows up at the uke's (parent's) place with a key he stole and made himself, gets jealous when the uke talks to other guys, looks through the uke's phone without consent, forces the uke to have sex when he doesn't want to, overall forces the uke to do things he doesn't want to (like peeing) and is a controlling, pushy, possessive, manipulative yandere. Did I mention he raped the uke and got him pregnant?
