Ever re-read a manga and think what the heck

relatable… and it was usually the straight modern romance manhuas that used to make me cry. didn’t realize how @bus!ve the male leads actually are-

i can't trust some of my tags anymore. it'll be tagged as "fluffy" "cute", etc yet have abuse and rape. like girl? what?? i would try and fix them but i've read too much ╥﹏╥

Years
When u realize inuyasha cat just left 2 girls hanging cz he couldn't decide for like the whole of the plot

And then there is the
Ewww it's so cringe how did I find this interesting, it's so booring noo plott just random kabedon momennttsss, soon toxic why is she swooning

I'd have to say, as I've gotten older I felt the same with a lot of the manga I've read, but at the same time, I also realize that just because it's not an ideal relationship, it doesn't mean it wasn't any less of a fun read or experience when you first read it or reread it now! I don't condone toxic relationships but sometimes I just wanna read a no thoughts head empty manga from the early 2000s that doesn't feel the need to make great romantic social commentary lol(though, honestly I don't mind it when manga do do that, it's actually quite interesting!). Besides, not is wrong with saying you had fond memories of something when you were younger, but now it's just not for you :D

You're not alone mate

Same... Like you still like it but you're not in love with it. I mean I personally still like those that I've watched and rewatch them from time to time but I can really say that some of the plots were iffy, inconsistent, toxic and what not. Like I remember wolf girl and black Prince loved that a lot before and now I think that Erica and Kyoya were toxic asf. I felt that Erica didn't have any sort of appreciation for herself no character and well it just wasn't the best. Kyoya don't get me started with him. Never want to date anyone like that.

Hahaha dang! Same here, I have just left some the way they are because otherwise it would take forever to go through everything.

Yup definitely thought that about a lot of male leads after re-reading some! And even some female leads!

For real!!!! It was so long before he finally chose someone and they both just stuck to his side the entire time.

Yes!!!! Like the ml would give her maybe one nice action after 10 mean actions and she would be head over heels for him!

That’s true. There are some I still like but would definitely not want in real life!

Hahah yes that one was a big one for me as well! I felt that their relationship was so bad for each other! Even some relationships in Fruits basket we’re toxic!

But yea there are some I still like but definitely don’t love as much as I used too!
