Been a while since I've read a manhwa in a single sitting like this. Didn't expect much from it at first but the writing really got me hooked. Props to both the author and the english translator for this because the dialogues? Heartbreakingly beautiful. Jooin's character resonated with me so much that I couldn't hold back tearing up at times. He just felt very real to me. Each of the characters' struggle to find validation & self worth in their own ways was portrayed so well. Of course no story is perfect, but the relationship between the two main characters was never forced despite how broken they both were initially, they understood each other's boundaries, weaknesses, strengths and mutually supported each other even through the littlest acts. I grew to love them a lot and I'm glad they got the happy ending they deserve :')
This isn't a toxic love triangle trope. It might seem like that in the beginning, but it's wayyy more than that. To each their own of course, but I recommend giving this a chance and reading it until the end!

Where can I read the novel in english? ;w;

https://www.novelupdates.com/series/if-you-devour-poison/ idk how far along the translation is but i was able to find this! you’ll need an account to read on the website

Does anyone know if the movie adaptation of this has english subtitles? And where to watch it?
I watched the original youtube video from 3 years ago where this was based on but I don't know where to watch the movie ;w;

oh not at all, it's pretty short. they only expanded the story further when it got published as a novel, and now the manga.
here's the vid from the original creator's channel ^^

While I do like the 3p/poly aspect, I feel so bothered that Nagi is getting way more attention than Arashi when they're supposedly equals in the relationship. Heck, Arashi can't even do anything with Hikaru without getting interrupted or joined in by Nagi. Idk it seems suffocating and I just want Arashi to be treated and loved better. Is that too much to ask ;w;
Thank you for the retranslation! It was done really really well <3
