The only problem is that mostly popular bl's full of r*pe which is not okay, and it's like the whole thing is normalizing in every manhwa, and it's crazy to think about that instead of well written(manhwa, manga, manhua) have less popularity than the disturbing manhwas. They are only popular because of the artsyles and the so called "red flags" are "good looking". (I'm not being rude, sorry if I sound rude)
(English is also not my first language)
That’s true, they are full of SA, but the main point is that they know what they’re getting to, why they just keep reading it, instead of stopping. They’re the ones complaining but still giving it audience.
And why they don’t have the same energy for the popular ones that are way worse than this.
Are we forgetting that, Passion, Codename Anastasia, Finder, Painter of the Night (had a shit start), Roses Champagne, Killer Stalking and so many more have better rating than this and no one is going there to complain?
Exactly, I also wonder how they keep on hating in this but not the others, they are basically the same. Might be because the author is much more popular than the others.
The rating is actually higher. There is foul play.
We gave wondered this… one of my friends said there was a comment complaining Jinx being on the screens in NY and it is like some of them had a personal vendetta against Jinx since.
I think this would be a great question.
Question 10- Have you read Jinx?
Many people have not read it and have been misled by haters.
I read so many BL that's I lost the count
what so because other bl's r worse its ok to justify sa? stop watering down r8pe its real and affects people's lives for goodness sake.
Youre missing the point, we shouldn’t normalize and accept such morbid themes and expect a “happy ending” to make sense, apart from being unrealistic its just is plain bad writing, but yeah i guess ur point aorta holds up idk
Just the perfection in this comment section, thank you
Not missing the point, because my point is that, if they actually stop reading it, the audience and sales will drop, so they will stop publishing it. Come here, in a illegal website complaining will not change anything, better go to the official one, post bad reviews there, for every manhwa that normalize SA, only then we will start see changes.
No one in this thread (at least) is normalizing SA!!! That’s sick, I even stopped reading manhwas for less.
We are just saying time and time again, to STOP READING IT AND GO TO ACTUAL FILE A REAL COMPLAINT IN THE LEGAL WEBSITE, the author isn’t in the comment section of mangago!
We must not forget that if there’s no people to read, there will be no reason to publish something.
Does anyone here said that they support SA? There’s worse and you don’t complain, that’s what’s is been said here and stop give it audience!
That person you are responding to, has not read Jinx. They are here to attack people on misinformation.
How many horror movies have you watched?
It seems like you're viewing fiction as if it must always be realistic or morally 'right,' but that's not always the case. Many horror movies and stories deal with morbid themes and some don’t have happy endings but some do, yet people watch them because they reflect certain emotions or fears, not reality. If we started policing fiction based on this, we'd lose genres like horror or thrillers entirely. Fantasy stories. Stories like Jinx or others with flawed or toxic characters aren’t about normalizing toxic behavior—they’re exploring how complicated people and relationships can be.
Where is there going to be poetic justice then, y'all will support anything,the sa culture in bls are already getting normalized people don't even see the problem anymore
Where is there going to be poetic justice then, y'all will support anything,the sa culture in bls are already getting normalized people don't even see the problem anymore, to think there are readers supporting this behavior such a disgrace
You can’t always use the excuse of ‘exploring complex people and relationships’ to justify the poor handling of these topics by certain authors. There’s a clear tendency among them (including this one) to rely on such scenarios and characters, but it’s not for the sake of “deep exploration”.
If that were truly their intent, they would emphasize these issues by having characters first recognize, then verbalize, and finally address their actions rather than simply romanticizing them. This would show that the topic isn’t being trivialized. As someone pointed out, it’s often just a ‘redemption arc,’ with the male lead moving on without real consequences. So at end, what’s the point ?
I’ve read a few chapters just to see for myself, and after reading the comments, it’s clear that nothing has changed. The author knows it works in terms of views and popularity. I used to read Yaoi when I was younger, my first one was BJ Alex. Now that I understand how harmful it can be, I realize that I once “fantasized” about those dynamics and it’s dangerous. You don’t even realize that what you’re reading is problematic, and the author never makes you understand that.
For your example of horror movies :
Comparing a webtoon like Jinx to a horror movie isn’t relevant because in horror movies, violence like murder are clearly there to scare and shock the audience and they KNOW it. It’s never portrayed as something romantic or normal. However, in Jinx, rape is often trivialized and sometimes shown as a form of “possessive romance “ or passion, which sends a dangerous message, especially in a world where rape is a harsh reality. While horror movies aim to provoke fear without normalizing anything, the normalization of rape in romantic contexts can confuse readers and risks making real-life violence seem acceptable and romantic, especially for teenagers. To me, it’s the equivalent of “Dark Romance”. It’s dangerous, i’m not even saying an opinion, it’s a fact.
You also mentioned “viewing fiction as if it must always be realistic or morally right”, but rape is a real issue. No one is asking for morally perfect stories, but these topics must be handled responsibly.
We live in a world where future generations may find it ‘romantic’ or ‘attractive’ to disregard the word ‘no.’ It’s a sad reflection of the times we’re in.
I understand your concern about the normalization of problematic themes, but don't agree with the way you're framing this. Your comment is making a sweeping generalization and projecting blame.
I don't support harmful narratives or romanticize assault in any context. It's important to have these discussions, but we should do so from an informed perspective, recognizing that these issues exist in many forms of media, not just one genre.
I have only read your first sentence. I feel like you’re misrepresenting what I’ve said, and that first sentence comes across as an attempt to shut any real discussion down rather than engage with the actual points. Why are you framing my comments like this? I'm open to meaningful conversation, but it's difficult when someone starts by falsely accusing me of supporting something I clearly don't. What would you do? Don’t talk to the person, right?
For clarity: I do not support trivializing serious issues like sexual assault in any context. I am a SA survivor. I believe these topics need to be handled responsibly, and it's important to critique how they're portrayed. However, attacking people over media preferences or assumptions doesn’t lead to productive change.
attacking people over preferences or assumptions is what your arguing about? that's idiotic you think sa victims should respect people who romanticize that shit? sorry, but do you actually expect people to respect people's preference of people getting r8ped...?
I’m really curious about something, it’s just a few question, please answer it honestly and try not to be rude.
1-) For the people who are disgusted by the ML behavior, is Jinx your very first Yaoi?
2-) Are you used to read only Shounen Ai?
3-) How many Yaoi have you read?
4-) If Jinx isn’t your first Yaoi, which one was it?
5-) Did you read or are reading the most popular Yaois?
6-) Do you know that no one is holding you captive to read this, that you have the choice to ignore this manhwa and pretend that it doesn’t exist?
7-) How old are you?
8-) Are you dealing with any kind of trauma right now?
9-) How long have you been a active member of the Yaoi community?
10-) Have you read Jinx?
11-) How worse is Jinx compared to other popular Yaoi out there?
That’s it for now, my honest opinion is that if:
- You’re a newbie in the Yaoi world;
- You’re young;
- Dealing with fresh traumas;
- Used only to soft genres;
- The ML face and the art was the main reason you choose to read this;
- You’re a Shounen Ai reader rather than a Yaoi reader;
- You’re not used to read about delicate themes been written by the mind of the capitalism’s slaves.
My advice to you is to give up, don’t read this, just straight up drop this and never read any popular yaois, keep yourself to Shounen Ai, it’s better for your mental health.
The same energy you have for this one, you should have it for the others out there too, that have a higher rating than this and are way worse in the SA theme.
I honestly stopped reading this (for now), still waiting for the redemption arc tho, because right now this is going nowhere.
