Why's everyone still glazing painter of the night wasn't the whole beginning to middle abo...

The way the big popular manwhas from back then we're mostly rape just has pretty arts is concerning, honestly as cringe, embarrassing, and smutty as it was, BJ Alex has a good look to it cause they were at least consented (if I remember correctly, I dropped midway but I know most of their stuff were w consent)

yaoi is not yaoi if there's no rape or non con involved

Bro if a bunch if ppl like it, then a bunch of ppl like it

It's like ragebait. Whether people love it or hate it, they're still interacting with it and boosting its popularity. The formula works, which is why we still have so many popular manhwa with controversial themes.

Hot take, but bad thinking diary got more hate than Jinx because there’s internal misogyny within the fujoshi community.

Painter of the Night is not meant to be a soft-core romance to begin with. There was no atmosphere of it being soft, romantic, and wholesome from the get go so you have a warning to drop it from the very beginning because the setting of it is supposed to be disturbing and uncomfortable. That’s why it was one of the most memorable manhwa because it was consistent for its aggressive and violent tone.

If you kept reading POTN and demanded it to be more wholesome, that’s your mistake cause the story was not supposed to be for the weak hearted. I honestly think people who complains are stupid and I always say it: “it’s like choosing to eat a spicy shrimp dish even though they don’t like spicy food or shellfish to begin with and blames the chef for cooking foods that’s not up to their preference”

Just because the art is pretty, doesn’t mean the story has to be as well. It just so happens that these authors have wilder imagination and insane talent in drawing

It’s a hot take for a reason jinx is very hated to the point if you mention it, people will attack you and will go as far to send death threats to you.

Oh that too... It’s just that... At least I have seen people saying they read Jinx and liked it but I haven’t seen the same thing for BTD

Finally someone said it! I'm so sick and tired of people defending those type or rs, I get that u like it (keep it to urself), but if you defend those type or rs then ur weird cuz whyyyyy??? What do u gain from defending those type of stories??? unless it's self-satisfaction. The author won't fuck you even if you defend them for life. 'Potn' defenders are actually the sickest enablers I've ever argued with. And especially those on tt, myfuckinggod. It's like they share 5 brain cells and attacking me for saying "Potn is actually so badd like genuinely" like?? I can't even voice my own opinions bro. As well as those tt accounts that post the whole ass story esp the sex scenes?? When the uploader says don't repost it, DON'T. Like think, genuinely think why they don't want to post it. (I remember the whole issue about 'manggo' shutting down and still they won't listen )

If you're mad about my opinion then be it lmfaoo

I have read many Yaoi that don't have any rape in them, it's true that there are a lot of Yaoi that do have rape, but there are many that don't.

Bitches go in with r@pe or abuse evident from the start and throw a tantrum. It’s one thing if there’s no warnings or it’s a story set up nice, consensual, healthy, etc. and then they throw a curveball and boom, random ass rape scene. Anger would be justified there bc there was no foreshadowing or warning. But in stories where it’s clear from the very start what it’s gonna contain or be about, why complain about it so much??Or shit on ppl who enjoy it. Especially since SO many ppl do enjoy it or at least read it anyways

I really like your take on this

yeah i remember dropping POTN cus it was icky

thats not true lol

What? Weirdo

Didn't even read over 3 chapters bcs of the vibes, idc whether it's dark romance or not but committing to a raped filled series is crazy

yeah fr. the art is pretty but the plot is soo weird. same with jinx, never read it and never will.

I agree cus in the end no matter how much people complain the fact is this stuff will ALWAYS exist and there will always be people who enjoy it. Best thing to do for yourself is listen to the damn warnings and stay away from things that will trigger you. You can judge people who are consuming that content but arguing/attacking won’t change anyones mind either

I brought up bad thinking diary and the other works bcs of the art and how it's still glazed on but yeah I agree w your take, thing is I didn't read POTN but I do question people who recommends it with a good review. Cause wdym it's wholesome? At least be honest when recommending it cause not everyone is a deep fanatic when it comes to rape and non consensual stories

I mentioned bad thinking diary cause gl authors don't usually dwell into non consensual stuff, and the Manwha itself is pretty popular as well as the art style I've mentioned. It was actually pretty good until shit went downhill and if I remember the spoilers, they're cousins?? The pink haired was a baddie

I think a lot of early stuff get really popular because it was the first of its kind. Like, I remember the reincarnation into villainess stuff was pretty sparse but now it’s like every story is about that, but the ones from the beginning still have a loyal fan base and get good reviews, even though there’s five million of the same story now. Manhwas only got really popular within the past few years so the ones at the beginning have like the “forefather” effect where even if it wasn’t that good, it gets praised cause it was the start of it all. If it was created and published now, it’ll probably have a lot more negative reviews like some other newer toxic bls that are out now.
