Is chemistrying. It's so palpable from my phone screen. Very yummy, what a feast
And this is one of these times. We ain't even getting most of the story yet
Honestly, what is up with these ratings lately (from what I've noticed). Decent or good stories get bad ratings, and not-so-great stories get better ratings.
Sadly this is how it has been working for some time now. It's a 50/50 gamble if you want to trust the ratings. Sometimes I feel like if the characters are not immediately doing something interesting or freaky deaky many folks downvote the story. Like bros, let the author cook smh
A black sheep" Brother in christ, you are the black sheep in your family. take some time to look at the mirror please
That the author is doing each chapter. Like, their lil paradise might look idyllic but you know something's amiss deep down but just can't figure it out. I just hope the reveal will not be anticlimactic because the curiosity is killing me.
Also, that one panel of the love interest kissing the mc with such an soft look on his face is melting me.
Hows the angst of this webtoon. I can handle angst in small, short doses. I really want to give this story a try because it looks good but I'm kinda scared if it's too heavy for me.
I say read it anyway; it's beautifully done. I, personally, didn't think the angst is too bad in this story. I think the R15 chapters are done, so you can always peek ahead to see the final results. But the journey of this story is magnificent, regardless of the angst.
It's very emotional, but unlike a lot of other bl, I'd say it's alleviated by having less exaggeration. It's more down to earth. I'd say try it and if it really does feel like too much, at least you tried!
I certainly agree with this comment!!
I love angst (the more it makes my heart ache, the better LOL) and while it’s definitely an element, it’s a really beautiful relationship between the characters that doesn’t feel gut wrenching, like a blissful rain in a way
And ofc as the others have already mentioned, if it feels too heavy still for you, at least you know now cuz you’ve already tried reading it (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
Thanks for the info! I was reading the recent chapters that's why I got curious because the drama seems interesting, but a bit scared how angsty it would be. So, I'll give it a try!
You won't regret it, but wait for the official update end
Scrumptious as hell, their dialogues are also *chef's kiss*. The way they talk kinky is so hnggggghhhh... Usually, in other mangas, it sounds stilted and cringey but this one??? It's so good freaking good.
Like, as a long time yaoi enjoyer, I'm so desensitized to smutty dialogues but this one, oh Lord, it got me hot and bothered.
Do these Chinese authors publish their non censored works. Doesn't China have strict rules against smut content, especially around queer media? Kinda worried that the author might get into trouble with the authorities.
Might’ve been published in Taiwan or with a Taiwanese company. Could be that the Chinese government has lifted some of the restrictions (highly unlikely might even be impossible) (づ￣ ³￣)づ
Ohhh true, I didn't think about that. Yeah, I don't think the censorship will change for the better soon, especially with Pooh still seated as the leader.
Physical copy? I really like how the story evolved so I might buy it if it has one.
jpn version has a physical release! i believe it just got rerun again (or the mangaka is planning on another rerun of it, they mentioned it recently on twitter). unfortunately there’s no physical version for the official en release of vol 1/2 afaik
Oh only jp version :( Someday I hope there will be an en one.
Are you knowledgeable what factors makes jp mangas potential candidates for official en physical releases? Just really want to understand how it works.
only jpn, i fear </3 i’d kill for an EN one someday, especially because the official EN publisher hasn’t translated volumes 3 or 4 (hence the unofficial TL we’re getting now…) and i would love to have them.
unfortunately i’m not super knowledgable about the topic :( but based on my understanding & what i’ve seen of how things operate wrt publisher announcements i think it’s a good part fan demand and a good part pure luck. it also depends on the genre a lot i think (ex. how few GL get announced for volume releases when big publishers like Seven Seas do reveals), popularity…. again i’m not super knowledgeable but from what i know these factors are all involved. pittosporum has scored really high on a lot of fan manga rankings & has made it into a lot of bonus anthologies / themed BL events + there’s a decent handful of merch for it… so there’s always hope and a chance its JPN popularity will signal a desire for physical EN release…. but i’m not super expecting it anytime soon much as i’d love to see it as a big fan of this one. ╥﹏╥
Ohhhh thank you for the info! I'm new to buying physical copies of bls so I'm not really familiar with these things.
It makes sense now why there's bl rankings in twitter from official jp channels. Man... it's kinda sad that int. readers are at the mercy whether or not the manga we like will get popular. :((( like you I really wish this manga will get an en version in the future. It's such a good story to add to a BL collection
no prob! it’s not much, but i’m happy to provide whatever info i can. it really is so sad that intl readers are at the mercy of publishers the way we are though ╥﹏╥ i’m quite the GL enjoyer myself so it really hits doubly hard because they barely license any and it’s…. not ever really anything appealing. it’s so difficult. but here’s hoping for pittosporum one day!!! i have the jpn copies because i love the story so much i wanted a copy of it Somewhere & the 4-vol set was cheap to snag in jpn but i’d be over the moon to have EN copies. (i don’t buy physicals often because they get pricey,,, but i would absolutely be willing to support this. so maybe someday!!!)
