Why is Ten Count so popular?
Ok, I don't want to offend anyone. Please don't be rude to me (fangirls can be really aggressive so) I'm just genuinely curious. Is it popular because of the smut scenes?? Because it doesn't really seem to have anything besides that. I forced myself to read up to chapter 19 (the buttplug scene) I just couldn't take it. Chap 19 page 29 did you see what kurose said, it seems like obsession or something WTF. The buttplug scene was hot but it just looked so emotionless. Actually all smut scenes seem emotionless. Their whole relationship seems to be based on sex. I don't see any feelings, I can't bring myself to read it any further. Shirotani is so fragile (well mysophobia and all, I understand) but kurose is so fucking emotionless, he's like a fucking sociopath. He's always forcing shirotani into doing sexual stuff. What the hell?? Ok I know that a lot of yaoi has seme raping uke but this is just ridiculous. Its all about smut smut smut. SO I want to know, why is it popular? Why do you like it? Also please dont be offended. I saw in the comments anyone who says they dont like ten count, there are like a 100 other people attacking the innocent person who voiced his/her opinion. Also I dropped it after the buttplug scene because I figured I would rather go watch gay porn on redtube (and I did) so dont tell me to "dont like, dont read" Also sorry for my english. I'm not a native speaker.
Everyone is entitled to their likes and dislikes. Ten Count is a very unique and relatable story that has great art style and character development, although I will admit I was looking for something smutty to read when I discovered this I'm glad I decided to stick around and read it. Sure I do like the smut scenes but I also became fascinated by a ...... 4 reply
I think the reason why Ten Count was so popular in the beginning had to do with the mangaka's previous works. When Seven Days and Hana no Mizo Shiru came out they were really popular and at the time really good. In my opinion, I think they're still good considering how BL has changed over the years. It makes sense that people would embrace her w...... 3 reply
You're looking for reasons—some sort of logical explanation why people like 10-Count or, let's say, other yaoi with provocative themes (might as well lump Viewfinder in with that group), but yaoi isn't the right magisterium. It's appeal lies in the realm of the irrational. It uses symbolic language to allow the reader to release emotional or sexu...... reply
I love it because it was the first yaoi manga I read! For that reason, it will always be special to me. If you want story driven or less sex, try your luck with shonen -Ai. reply
I'm more interested to read the other answers than to give a reply kkk... Why is it so popular? It's because of the hype, maybe. Seems like some people excited/interested to the few first chapter (while it's still in line, they said), then spread the word and some pages all over the social media.
The initial trigger to read it is just different to...... reply
Ten Count isn't my favourite manga but I enjoy it. It isn't just sex. Otherwise Rihito would have added sex scenes in the first couple chapters. They didn't start doing sexual acts until chapter 9/10 I think. It's most likely popular cause of the mysophobia and the psychological themes as well as the sex. I see the feelings and bonding between Kuro...... 2 reply
I actually thought far more people understood this story better than I do, but I've seen quite a lot of people confused about this story. I'm just gonna say it: It's kinda weird AND confusing, but give me some time, read this comment, just based on what I know and noticed.
Shirotani had some weird relationship with his dad, and that can be thought...... reply
Was first interested in the plot, which you have to admit that the plot was very appealing because of the uke's mysophobia. Then, when it started gaining more popularity, and things got smutter than expected; and well, it seems the author is realizing the yaoi scenes gain more readers. I don't follow it anymore, tbh, but I saw the appeal when it st...... reply
well.. everyone have their own preference i guess~ some people loves rape scenes, or comedy yaoi, or fetishes etc.
at least me. lol
however, just as you said, they shouldnt offend others nor feeling offended just because others words in it.
as for me.... im not that gaga about this one though. read til ch 4. too serious for me ╮(￣▽￣)�...... reply
I have been reading this one ever since first few chaps came out years ago. I also think it had a lot of promise at the start but it went in a different direction than I thought it would. It was a bit disappointing. Stuck around bcz I soooo wanted to see them kiss, I waited years!!! Will probably stick around to see it finished only bcz of how long...... 1 reply
