It is bad writing. I know some readers want to defend the author from this criticism and keep pumping the story as good but 'A Man Like You' is as bad as it gets in terms of poorly structured story telling, poorly developed characters, a plot that doesn't make sense and the list goes on. Since there are no other works of this author here is hard to know if mediocrity and bad writing is a trait or if is just an exception. Sometimes a good artist/writer creates something embarrassing by their own standards.
yap that what I been saying a lot. it just sad XD
cause the art is very good 0-0
Hear hear! I didn't see the poor writing coming, actually.
Yeah, it was such a waste of potential. But I'd rather have good story than good artwork.
same XD it such a waste（/TДT)/
This manga's sort of taken the route of AOT for me. In the beginning it was so compelling and interesting, and was honestly one of my favorite mangas. Both Siwon and Jinha would mess up, and redeem themselves later on. But now it's sort of unraveled and has become so ridiculous that I can't take it seriously anymore. All the character development they go through is quickly brushed to the side, characters become shallow and the plot becomes confusing and mundane. Ugh, it's awful to admit but one of my once favorite mangas just isn't what it once was anymore (￣ε(#￣)Σ
It was once my favorite, too. This manhwa was one of those that really got me into the realm of BL manhwas so it was a bit special to me. It's saddening that it's become such a disappointment. There even once was a time when I would kill for an update for this manhwa. Now, I would like to kill the characters.
I"m the opposite XD I like the idea of the plot at first but hated the character's from the very start. they annoy the shit out of me (≧∀≦) my first yaoi manhwa was Blood bank, it was awesome!!!! (⌒▽⌒)
This and Never understand were the first ones that I read. Never understand was really great and I was hoping this one would be, too. Apparently, it's not. I want it to end already!! ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
awww Never understand was sooo cute!!! (⌒▽⌒) it made me happy while I read that
⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄ the art was a little hard to get used too. but in the end, I got used to it. somehow.
It'a a great example of good story.& characters > artwork. At least the characters there had a legit reason as to why they were acting that way.
true lol
Ugh same, I feel exactly the same way. If anyone ever asked me for a BL recommendation, this Manwhua was the first thing I'd tell the to go read. Now it's more of a "stay away" one ╥﹏╥
IKR!!
The stone concept was interesting at first, but it became so ridiculous to me. The writer is trying too hard to create a compelling story by shoving and throwing all these convenient plot devices without actual development. This is the epitome of bad writing. Fite me.
