yeah this mangaka is going for the dumbass fragile weak uke. I don't minf the fragile part but idiocy should have a limit. I can understand wanting to be around someone and being tired of being called "a ghost" and all but letting someone use your body in a sexual way just to escape being lonely for a second is the dumbest thing ever. Needless to say that uke's personality isn't ideal but the relationship gets especially frustrating when the seme is that manipulative. I know you're reserved to call it "manipulation" but he is clearly using the uke's weak spot and bending his will so, to me, it qualifies as a compulsion or manipulation of sorts. These kind of stories where one character is just overconfident and toys with the other person, they just make me wish that in the next chapter that person suffers and regrets their action by falling in love first while the presumed weak person is oblivious to their feelings
Agree with you but hey, there are all sorts of people in this world (though this is a manga!) And I'm sure the seme has already fallen for the ikr, there's this panel where the Ike makes a face and the seme looks surprised, this is the typical yaoi where the uke doesn't realize till the end about it
Not ikr, *uke
I am okay with a fragile uke but I can't handle a seme who manipulates the uke as his plaything. It's one thing to be sorta manipulative with someone you love and wanting to possess them but playing with a guy you have no feelings for just because it's interesting is a no-go for me. Hope next chapter delivers
