the story could’ve went somewhere, but it failed to provide any meaningful info appropriately. im all for smut when the story leads up to it, but the long ass sex scenes happened when the plot should be emphasized instead. or the sex was so one sided and bordering sexual assault, that it didn’t even add to the romance itself??
so the season finale felt entirely incomplete and lackluster, as well as the chemistry, because we barely saw them emotionally engaging. with all this combined, reaper regaining his emotions doesn’t even feel sincere to me…
people were all about hating on mc during season one because of the age gap and lack of boundaries, but after going back it’s safe to say he really got trapped in the corner he put himself in. what this means is he didn’t deserve what happened, but because of the circumstances i understood why he couldn’t say no or be a better adult. to start off, he made himself an anonymous benefactor to a kid who’s faced severe trauma but neglected the kid’s mental health + has been in and out of homes yet continued it. the mystery led heeseo to become obsessed with the idea of someone caring for him, craving that emotional connection he’s been lacking since his moms passing. the age gap is what makes the relationship loudly taboo, but imo people kept skipping over the the biggest reason why he found it so hard to deny heeseo: because of the deeply complex issue with the teacher’s murder and the connection to his adoptive mom. then he’s been subjecting heeseo to demeaning home conditions, and this guilt added onto his inability to say no. on top of all this, the kid would threaten to kill himself if tae didn’t indulge him! so now you have this perfect formula of a horny, manipulative, obsessive teenager amidst solving a blocked murder case that’s been covered up by both the court, police station, AND the judge who took became your guardian
however i don’t blame tae fully because he’s also lived a similar life, and thought monetary support could somewhat amount to his teachers presence. but due to her murder, he felt overwhelming responsibility and the past forced him to be in the shadows. his lack of boundaries is a hard fix considering he feels so bound to heesung, and believes he owes them not only justice but his life. i don’t think his fondness towards this family is shallow in the slightest, as tae truly loves and admires them. all this to say, i actually really like his characterization and some readers cannot handle complex characters who aren’t cookie cutter. let main characters make hard and unlikeable decisions, given their story calls for it!!
i started this because the bottom was hot but why is he so stupid bro is scared to confess his feelings but literally dick rode his crush after eight years with full awareness and left?? i promise you its easier to say words of affection over bouncing on someone’s cock all night after a first reunion like…
this wasn’t even a fwb situation so the twist is more annoying rather than entertaining
he’s the perfect partner?? attentive, expresses himself, communicates when he’s lonely or wants attention, is extremely considerate, and most importantly- submissive. puppy-like people have my heart
it’s so easy to blame sohan for giving the dad access to his life, but yall forget how HARD it is to actually let go of toxic parents. i think this manhwa demonstrates how people cope really well, because its possible to relapse for a bad person. think of unhealthy romantic relationships… so can you imagine the internal conflict he has for someone who used to be a strong paternal figure?
and also sihwa doesn’t have the best track record when it comes to humans, so i get why sohan doesn’t take his concerns as seriously about the father
it started off so cute with jin calling him potato and then being cuddly/sleepy… but then some bitch gang members HAD to cause more problems
ive been reading mostly bl lately but a lot of mainstream lacks any type of substance with their characters or storyline…
is there any interesting romances yall have read recently?? that doesn’t focus on lackluster sex or rape lmao
his partner is a pos for making fun of taekjoo for getting brutally raped??? no wonder he’s majorly injured, he’s an idiotic cunt
and zhenyas family doing nothing after seeing their child’s sociopathic behavior is so sad bro… they obviously enabled him and never thought to treat him
hey did you know sexually assaulting someone isn’t the only way to communicate your feelings!!! also this might be me, but im lowkey understanding why the author made the hyung know him when he was younger… it puts more pressure and taboo on why they couldn’t be together compared to the main couple with their first love + shallow revenge plot
it’s bothersome because i want to ship them and get that it’s uncomfortable, but maybe that’s what the author wanted the readers and the hyung to feel. they obviously both have such deep feelings for each other, but they couldn’t let him outshine the ml lmao
maxed out on matching each others freak??? this surprisingly was a cute and wholesome read. the passion and insanity in lovers was reciprocated, making this story super compelling. i love when a psychological romance is good!
i need to find more like this, no more victims and perpetrators only please. need both people to be equally obsessed with each other
not because the art isn’t beautiful, but i feel like it doesn’t suit the atmosphere of the story. it’s a bit childish and doesn’t have that air of elegance to it, that id expect from a royalty comic. something a bit more dark and expressive would’ve synced with this more… think of stepmothers marchen or kings maker. with how heavy the topics are, and explicit now, it’s been throwing me off and i only realized now
my heart feels so full watching them?? the way he doesn’t hesitate to accommodate subaru and call out when he’s being avoidant is refreshing. i hope we get a volume that focuses more on ml’s backstory too and how he fell for mc, since most of the vulnerable moments have been on mc
i knew it was on purpose to make their characters this way, i love when authors go against the grain!! the side story was so cute too we got a bts of it. doting on a lover while they’re sleeping has me weak in the knees
after brushing, you must wait TWO hours in order to give head of any kind. that includes bj, rimming, cat eating, and so on. when brushing, there’s a high chance of cutting the inside of your mouth with toothbrush bristles, mainly on the gums. this could cause the receiver or giver to contract unwanted bacteria or infection, but this is mainly a risk for the receiver. two hours is enough time for those cuts to be okay (mouth is biggest open, “wound” it heals fast)
their sub and dom dynamic is peak. i want to see more couple moments and how much more infatuated they get. id eat that shit up
checkmate manhwa and this manga hold hands. from the psychological aspect, accepting another persons psycho tendencies and romanticizing it, then their personalities and designs !! love me some dark haired freak x bubbly, charismatic blondie combo
it had me giggling bruh?? the chibi peen and the pillow talk while squeezing and playing with them too had me dying
sure they have a lot more to cover and should express in detail, but the upfront confessions from sohan were so refreshing and shows a lot of character growth. i love how he clarified the space for his father is out of responsibility only, and imo the pressure of community/family ties in asian culture. but holy fuck his dad needs to die horribly already??
