only a few chaps in and i’m already regretting picking this up omg. this is such a hard read. and the uke keeps giving me second hand embarrassment. all that for a seme who looks like he doesnt GAF abt anything in his life. i’m gonna keep reading for a few more chapters to see if this is rlly worth all the hype, but it’s such a hard read i’m getting stomachache
whenever this story updates after the shitshow the author did on tw*tt*r i giggle so hard i pee myself bc what did she expect when she said all that? for all piracy to stop? illegal yaoi never stops
She could learn from some of the other creators out there who take an advantage of illegal reading. Instead of crashing out on social media, they promoted merchandise like key chain, photocard, and mini poster signatured by them. They made the readers love them and their work by not making enemies. Their works already loved and become popular because of illegal reading, so they focus in different area to make more money.
It’s similar to that one BL manhwa where the author was so aggressive about cracking down on piracy that illegal sites had to remove it. Because of that, the manhwa lost a lot of visibility, and barely anyone was buying it legally anymore.
I’m not trying to justify piracy, but as someone who can’t afford to spend money recklessly, I’d rather preview a manhwa first. If I end up liking it, I’ll go back and purchase the same chapters on official platforms to support the creator.
Idk about Painter Of The Night, that manhwa is still exist in this site or at her piracy sites.
The manhwa removed from this site after the author crash out is Blind Play. The manhwa isn't that novel for story wise, nothing new about it. After it was removed, I don't see any hype around that manhwa anymore. Seems the officials sell just worsen. The author could have make her readers to buy some merchandise and make money without depending on officials sell. Let the manhwa known, then curry favor from readers to make money from others means.
c the blindplay arc (lol) was the worse… the artists literally posted some illegal readers photo online can they not understand that illegal readers wont just stop illegal reading if they say “stop reading my series or just die” ??? we aint privileged enough to casually spend our little money to some chapters
they should learn better from those artists who took advantage from this situation, being kind with their words as well. they actually understand that not all of us r made out of gold. those r the ones that deserves a purchase lol. lets support them
i think we all should address the multiple elephants in the room and that’s:
1) the official website is SHIT. the translations are late. it’s lacking in terms of upload date and accessibility so you can’t really fault some people who resort to p*rated sites.
2) can we all just agree to stop posting translation scans on the internet oh my lord. have we learned NOTHING? if you’re gonna do that at least block the author holy shit. i don’t agree with anything about what eukja said, but her anger toward piracy is valid. i just don’t like how she handled this entire thing. but posting translation scans on a platform where the author could be lurking is insane. but that doesn’t mean i support the bullying and harassment that the user received
3) no explanation from eukja will ever justify what she said about people who read from p*rated sites like that’s just how it is. it’s one thing to be mad about it, but tweeting about putting them in a box and setting them on fire is another different thing. it’s weird to be preaching about money or profit when she literally profited off of rape scenes like that’s just not how it works. it’s also the reason why people would rather read off of p*rated sites instead of giving her money
Please the putting in the box and set on fire really put me off, someone check on her, what's that mentality.
I'm one of those who thought that the disappear tweet is actually meant to stop reading illegally or for illegal sites to disappear and not to KMS and was a translation issue, but after that box tweet, I don't know anymoooore
IT’S SO CRAZY AND THIS ISNT THEIR FIRST TIME. they also got mad at a LEGAL READER bc they didn’t like their fanart it’s INSANE OMG. insane how your character literally almost offs himself bc of poverty and now theyre on tw*tter acting like people who cant afford or dont have access to official sites should all just die









can someone pls explain to me IN FULL DETAILS why the HELL this author is so good at writing side stories WHAT THE FUCK. i just finished room without windows side stories earlier and made a bold statement in the comsec that that was probably their best work. but i honestly can’t say that BBB’s side stories arent as as good and well written. like holy fuck
first of all, the concept of them being happy together in different dimensions?!?!? and the concept of the fox being able to travel through dimensions and allowing these dimension to interact through sheer accident?!?!? AND THE ENTIRE GUIDEVERSE ARC??? LIKE I JUST HAVE SO MANY WORDS IN MY HEAD I JUST CANT ARTICULATE THEM
it’s so big brained to me. i don’t know what this says about me as a reader but REALLY. every monologue, thought process, symbolism, parallel included in this entire story is SURELY appreciated. it’s just so fucking good. don’t believe me? READ ROOM WITHOUT WINDOWS SIDE STORIES
like every plot device is so well thought and well explained in relation to the characters. it’s so fucking good omg. i rated the main story 2* bc i honesly couldn’t stand the bottom being highley toxic and a lil dangerous to hojin, but the side stories allowed me to see their relationship in a different perspective. AND I LIKE THAT!!!!!!
NORMALIZE SIDE STORIES BEING CREATIVE, WITTY, ENTERTAINING, WITH WELL-THOUGHT PLOT WITHOUT RUINING THE MAIN STORY
Ugh! I love when people leave long comments full of good things
I'm not talking about the recommendation or personal opinion here, I'm talking about explaining in good details their point of view
Personally I did like the main story BUT I love the side ones WAAAAAAAY TOO MUCH! As you said they're just so good and it feels like the author, DACTO (and I NEED to mention them cause clearly deserves more recognition), think really carefully on this stories and put love on them
I personally would read all of them if they're then published as separate ones
Weird thing is I only get to know this work thanks to the comment section in Room without windows since if you click on the author name or check "other works" man ga go is not showing anything...so if you know another of DACTOs work I'd appreciate it
AWWW THANKS FOR THE APPRECIATION! i love long replies like this too whenever i ramble on here! but rest assured! i think there are only two works from dacto as of now. i could be wrong! but only bbb and room without windows are the only stories the author usually reference in their art. I sure hope they release more stories soon!
