yes pls thank uuu !!! as a gay person myself it's low-key annoying as hell when ppl (I mainly see it w ppl on here bc it's not like official sites w the actual proper tags included) complain abt a story not being "gay" enough for them (I'm mainly talking abt the ppl complaining that this isn't yaoi), when literally bruh wtf gay people can exist without it being a spectacle. ik it's crazy to think about guys but characters in stories can be queer (gay, bi, pan, etc) without an author explicitly stating that said character is in fact queer

NO LITERALLY also I'll add onto u bc idk if ppl realize this but it is LITERALLY NOT A BL on official sites (in jp) it is listed as a drama fantasy story. in Japan stories where the main focus of the story is the romantic (and/or sexual) relationship between two men are bls, this is not that it's crazy bc it shows how ass media literacy is these days bc the focus of this story in particular is not on the romantic relationship between the two mcs. yes, a main focus of the story is on the two male mcs relationship, but their (possible) romantic relationship is not the focus of this story, hence why it is not a bl. like seriously do y'all call something like heart stopper bl just bc the two mcs are in a gay relationship together smh

i wouldn’t say addicted to porn. although it’s drawn sex, it doesn’t have the same societal/mental effects + exploitation real porn has
there’s nothing wrong with reading eroticism or being disappointed by a story that advertised it imo. but my only ick is readers finding it more important than discussing the actual content. its just a pet peeve not me pointing fingers about addiction <3. there’s a huge difference between written/drawn sexual content vs the real sex industry

exactly. HOW does sex make them gay when the entire time we’ve seen them be romantic and long for each other??? do they look like besties ???
they want that cookie so bad but are going through their own traumas right now. there’s plenty of explicit gay stories so it’s a bit annoying seeing them throwaway the whole story
they’re not outwardly buttfucking and splashing the screen with jizz and that makes it not gay… lets chill a bit horndogs. ignoring all the words, touches, and tainted but also pure affection they have towards one another is sad. this is so clearly a slow burn toxic bl/yaoi where is your yearning at??!!
many of you guys dont realize how erotic and sensual vampirism as a whole is. biting and “turning” someone in general can be symbolism of power, abuse, or all consuming love. in other context, like romantic, drinking someone’s blood or making them into a vampire is also an allegory for consent and in general just sex?? im finding a lot of enjoyment in this story because it flips the script on the classic power dynamics between humans and vampires. yamadera is the one who holds the leash, yet a dominating predator like sayo is showing this human “monster” what it means to live and also have someone unconditionally love and care for you. you guys are undermining and undervaluing this story so much just because it’s not outwardly telling you they confessed, got married, and showed explicit anal . when it’s shown several times how much these men both mean to each other, yet they’re trying to work out their own clashing philosophies and trauma
