I'm so tired of yaoi mangakas trying to convince me that fucked up dynamics can magically turn into a healthy one. From the beginning the tone was completely inconsistent. It would trivialize rape to a ridiculous extent then turn around and show the cruelty behind the seme's actions in a more serious light. It felt like whiplash.
I like non-con but I'm tired of it being treated like some little squabble and not a traumatic thing. The psychological tag was so misleading, I thought maybe I'd be getting some Harada shit but this is more like a badly written Color Recipe. Stop tagging stuff as psychological when it doesn't even try to explore the psychological aspect of the dynamic
There are fd up dynamics turned to healthy ones even irl :'D
Different people react to trauma in different ways and some just aren't as easily traumatized.
I feel like you want the "perfect victim" when there is a noncon element, which Yu isn't since he gets trough his trauma so easily.
Yu lost his father so I think that's part why he is so strong mentally, he doesn't really get easily shooked and when he does he tries to either get trought it as fast as possible or ignore it.
There are many types of "psychological" it would be kinda boring if every single psychological story was similar :D Here the psych element comes mostly from Takamada, from his trauma, inclanation and things behind those. So it shows the psych element from the pov of the offender instead of the victim.
Psychological is a sliding scale. Not everything needs to be Nii-chan levels of fucked for it to be considered psychological.
I'm an ardent fan of PSYCHO-PASS and other psychological thrillers and you don't see me pitching when it comes in different flavors.
This series deals with a lot of different elements and there are two sides to these elements. We've come full-circle to actually deal with Takamada's trauma instead of him stuffing everything down to the point he self-destructs. Yu is also in a better position and trusts Takamada to work through it together.
Just 'cause you don't like it doesn't mean the story is bad. Your personal distaste doesn't dictate whether a work of fiction is good or not. Let go of your main character syndrome and you'll be much happier in life lol
fujoshis on mangago really show the worst part of the BL fandom, literally the 4chan of fujoshis. Everywhere else fujos are smart and mature and this place is just filled with stupid children who shouldn't even be reading yaoi being a literal stereotype of a trash fujo. You guys make all of us look bad and I'm happy I'm starting to see criticism of the fujos on here.
quick question: i read a lot of bl, but i skip ones that dont have good storylines and drop them when they have a lot of rape and just smut scenes in general. I also don't like the smut scenes too much so i just skip over those while skimming the words to see if theres something important in there. I also read nonbl i just got into "bl" cos of a friend. So does that still make me a rotten fujoshi?
Been reading manga for (especially on this site) years. Probably always will. Although Bl is a fave but not nearly the only thing I read.
Around seven-ish years ago when I found this site it was a nicer, calmer. There were virtually no trolls and the questions were a place of sharing fave music when reading, talking about life (like what you did during break or how you just got back from visiting family to see loads of updates) and asking about good or weird manga without trolls or random hate comments. Now, I hardly ever read topics, questions, or comments and usually just keep to myself unless feeling sociable. There so many different types of people here now that I sometimes miss the pre-killing stalking/webtoon (although I love webtoons) and now pre-titok site. But I've grown used to it lol. Its just not the same anymore.(〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
I’ve been here for years now... there’s always been people like that here but since COVID locked the kiddies up it’s been 100x worse than usual lol so much of the feed is just incredibly cringe stuff, like “omg my baby ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ “ or some attempt at a character psych evaluation... ugh makes my skin crawl
WHY ARE THERE NO GODDAMN OMEGAVERSE MANGAS WITH A OMEGA X OMEGA COUPLE. IM FUCKING STARVING OF GOOD CONTENT. DO I HAVE TO MAKE IT MYSELF???
Unless one of y'all know of one? :)
I write omega x omega all the time. There are some really cool ways to write the dynamic. Think about it! Two omegas fighting to love each other in a society that treats omegas like shit. Society tells them they have to be with an alpha but they reject that and love each other instead. I'm surprised there isn't at least one manga w/ an omega x omega couple (I'm sure it would end up just being porn if it existed but I'll take that too tbh)
The fact that you got dumbasses asking why he has both is exactly why ppl need to start actually learning what LGBTQIA actually means, the I stands for intersex, they're included because ppl are still so uneducated about them. Also there are trans masc ppl who have a dick and vagina too, not in the same exact way but you know.
That's a really rare occasion and if it happen one of the sexual parts are useless and inactive.
