Ooof. Hah. Whew. Just. This manhwa man. This manhwa. I just spent around 25USD to buy all the chapters so I can show love for Munamu-ssaem's work. And this is HUGE for me. Not just the price, but buying from Tappytoons, cuz I abhor their purchase-by-chapter system. I get it, Marvel and DC Comics do that too, but I no longer buy or read comics for that reason either. WHICH IS PROOF THAT APBC IS A GAHDANG MASTERPIECE. I honestly cannot explain everything I love and hate about this manhwa. I could probably make a gahdang thesis just based off it. There are parts here that are hard to get through because the angst level is just...dear lord. The resolution doesn't erase the pain of the angst, but balances it in a way that makes the future hopeful. Plus, the ending of the story, while happy, is also open. We have a sense that the rain can go from showers to deluge at the pull of a trigger. But at that moment, where Munamu-san ended...everything is okay. And being okay is one of the most underrated and beautiful states of being. I wish I could give more specific details about what I love about this story, but I don't want to give anything away. This is also unusual of me because I typically don't care. My other reviews shamelessly have spoilers lol...again, bitch move, but am I sorry enough to stop? For the sake of my organizational aesthetic...nu~. This is a story that needs to be appreciated and enjoyed in its entirety. Afterwards, I encourage you to support Munamu-ssaem by buying their chapters because APBC fkkn DESERVES IT. I AM REALLY SAD THAT THIS DOESN'T GET MORE APPRECIATION.

#Uke is beta #Seme is alpha #Seme is scared of falling prey to heat-induced rape/sex #Chooses beta #Incestuous themes #Uke and seme are adopted brothers #No clue if they met as infants, kids, or teens #Sexual assault #Beta tries to do what he thinks is best for alpha #Omega tries to coerce alpha out of desperation #Alpha convinces them there's a better way #A beta an alpha and an omega light the way to a revolution *impressed whistle* Okay. This is arguably my fave ABO story. Wish this was made into a full-length story cuz DANG this was a great read and delivered its message in a believable way without being preachy. I love this manga and, as such, would like to share two thoughts lol: 1) If 20% are alphas and 10% are omegas, that leaves 10% of alphas w/o a fated pair.  So, I mean.  Assuming fated pairs exist and all 10% of omegas have one, that gives 10% of alphas the opportunity to CHOOSE THEIR OWN mate from 70% of the world's betas.  Beta!Seme and alpha!Uke prove that chosen pairs are JUST AS beautiful as fated pairs (note: 'pairs' needn't be taken literally as love comes in more than 1 or 2 forms lol). 2) God lights the way through reason. Excluding any argument of theism vs atheism & gnosticism vs agnosticism, I'd like to ammend that by adding "reason and values". Cuz w/o reason, values lack application and purpose. But w/o values, reason can be used to excuse anything.

#Supernatural #Fantasy #Some era in japan #Ostracization #Mother and uke is driven out of village #Uke can hear thoughts through touch #Seme can move things with his mind during strong emotions #Age difference #Kind loving uke #Respectful charming seme #Cute uke #Hot seme #Insecure uke #Low-key possessive seme #Uke has doggo companion #I would die for doggo companion Okay but I loooooooove this manga. It's short, but it's era-based and has supernatural elements to it. Since the Uke and Seme both have powers, they've been treated as outsiders but grew up with different mindsets. Their powers are actually rather fitting with their personalities. Uke can read people's hearts, so he grew up empathetic and putting others before himself. Seme can move things w/his mind so he can be a force of nature that gives shit rather than takes shit. What I really love is the way they ended up falling for each other. It was like a natural course of events, like the universe (author-san) made sure they would be in each other's paths so that they could end up walking a new path together. I especially love the peek we had into their new life together. It was a short scene where Seme lamented over Uke's seeming lack of jealousy and Uke lamented over how he's not "good enough" for Seme. Cliche? Yes. This bitch loves the classics. xD
