We like a self aware author

I like that the author is aware that this story likely won't be well received and serves more of a guilty pleasure function for those into it.
I didn't like this Manhwa, skimmed through most of it since it's not my vibe but hey to each their own!


Funnily enough I got the Mr. Blue Season's Greetings calendar for this year and I now own merch of this Manhwa lol

    I was going to say I hope I never meet someone who’s into this type of fucked up shit, but I realized that someone is me. Of course, I don’t condone it.

    I just see it as a no-brain needed type of story, if that makes sense. Now if this happened in a story where development is a thing or in a developed story, I’d be frantic mentally.

    I’m still disgusted either ways, but it’s interesting to read.

    Keyword: interesting (not that it’s okay)

    People need to stop equating liking something fictional with reality.
    Just because someone likes fucked up fictional stories doesn't make them a predator in real life at least that's what I think.

    I do get you, in the same way I like deep psychological stories and interpret meaning into the smallest gestures (my brain won't shut up lol).
    And honestly I take a story that doesn't take itself too serious over a story that tries to be ambitious and fails.

    And no worries, people have always been fascinated by the grotesque, it's normal in a way.

    People online came at me for liking these type of stories and my parents know about my BL collection (dark themed mostly), so they think I’m a bit weird but that’s that.

    I enjoy reading these type of stories, especially because it’s something forbidden in society. As the saying goes: the more something is forbidden, the more a person wants to do that forbidden.

    If anything it shows how immature and even bold people can be in the guise of anonymity.
    I've read Harada, MADK and so on, I love grotesque BL stories generally (there's exceptions but I can always muster up some sort of interest for them).
    My mom also knows about my BL collection but she couldn't care less lol

    That's true, a lot of people naturally gravitate towards the forbidden, albeit scary, it's also exciting to test one's limit to see how far storytelling can go to still be considered "okay" to view.
    I remember reading "Mai-chan's daily life" as a minor and the baby scene shocked me to my core yet it fueled an interest in the obscure and gore subgenre of horror stories.
    Not all stories have to be that extreme but it's an interesting look into a fictional reality of the unknown depths of the human imagination.
