The title is making more and more sense, really love all the ppl in the comments who draw parallels to the Greek mythology!
Helps understand the story better and makes a lot of sense. They're actually the HOUNDS of Sisyphus/Guwon.
I wonder how literally the author will go with this premise.
Why rape/sexual assault from the get go?
This could've been so nice if the Top was a good person and trying to look out for the Bottom and helping him back on his feet and with his idol career of which he still dreams of.
Even better if it was a former member seeing him, worrying and convincing him to improve his life while both fall in love.
See? Non toxic plot and I'd actually be rooting for them. It's that easy but nah let's go with brain rot plot where ppl hate the Top until he suddenly "turns" so nice and ppl just straight up forget the first few chapters. Cough Low Tide in Twilight Cough.
(Btw not saying I disliked that Manhwa but ppl calling Taeju a green flag makes my blood boil).
Does the side story make sense without the main story? I love the art but don't really like the plot seeing chapter 1.
You'd get spoiled but it's an au so it does make sense
Thank you!
Is the spoiler that they'll end up together?
I guess just different parts of the plot(?) It's an actor au so it's like they're on set for the actual story
Oh I see!
Now I understand why some people here want the au to be canon, it's nice to imagine they're just acting.
Reminds me of the au of "For my weirdo" where they were also on a film set, the story was quite dark so it's nice to imagine that it wasn't "real" and they're happy in rl.
I'll definitely recommend you to read the main story (of course you don't have to if you feel uncomfortable reading it) so you could appreciate the side story and it's main point more. Shit got me teary in one eyes while smiling.
I don't understand why this has such a low rating tbh
The plot is messed up but also intriguing and the art is amazing! Something you'd see in "The summer Hikaru died" in some panels.
I thoroughly enjoy this, whether it's BL or not, I don't mind either way.
They dislike it bc it doesn't have porn yet that's why a lot of these ppl are gooners and don't care about plot just sex
I saw a lot of ppl complaining about how women are treated and that is misogynistic. A lot of ppl came here bc they said CSM author recommended it and was firstly tagged as bl... However bl or not they seem to forget 2 major things: 1. It was FUJIMOTO who recommended it and 2. Is a psychological horror.
┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Just based on these 12 chapters, not being spoiled about anything, I absolutely love this!!
The writing is immaculate and the art is gorgeous.
How the artist manages to make Eden look so terrifyingly skinny in such a graphic yet convincing way is beyond me.
Once he actually improves he'll probably be more lean than skinny and pulling off that subtle difference in weight is kinda difficult to draw.
Also why are people pissed about ML not going along with it? It was so refreshing to see such a normal reaction from someone who isn't gay.
First off he had no reason to accept the request and I liked how he declined at first bc that would literally happen in RL.
The reason he changed his mind is still unclear to me but he lowkey seems suicidal and might be intrigued by Eden's strong will to not give up on his goal.
His dedication which ML seems to lack.
Well I'm excited for everything that's about to come.
"I've been jealous lots of other times" while subtly looking at Mc's ring finger!! Ahh I can't!
I take back everything I said about Ian possibly being toxic, he's so sweet.
He's just trying to get Mc back into Hockey bc it means a lot to him and he inspired him to start.
He only meant well, not knowing that Mc's father was borderline abusive to him, pushing him and branding him a failure when he "failed" to meet those high expectations and leaving his kids to coach the bigger talent.
That's just awful.
Now I realize that Ian probably only said those words at the funeral for Mc's sake.
I do hope it gets adressed more that what happened was more of a panic attack not just hyperventilating.
I love stories that deal with trauma healing so I'm really excited to see where this author will take the plot from here.
The hand made out of ice chocking him was an amazing detail tho!
so Mc’s married???
He's divorced now but we don't know anything else.
Honestly this is giving me so much second-hand embarrassment but what did I expect with such a title? xD
Ngl I kinda like this!
One of those stories that leave you feeling depressed and empty but also glad you got to read it.
But I wish they had a happier ending than being found devouring each other.
I didn't realize it was them. T_T Thanks to your comment.
Sorry ;_;
In my mind they're happily waiting on that rooftop.
I simply adore sport themed BL Manhwa!!
The story looks indeed promising and the art is stunning to look at but I have my doubts about the Top's personality.
He reminds me of the Top in "Love History Caused by Willful Negligence" at first glance, definitely not as psychotic but still a bit rude and toxic if that makes sense.
I hope this first impression will turn out to be false, for now I'm giving this a 4/5 and see where it will take us~
i have hope that he won't turn out so bad since the author's the same as "unintentionally love story!"
Haven't read that one yet! But I hope you're right, I'm gonna read it regardless but I honestly prefer Puppy Tops.
I love this!! I miss seeing such an original plot in BL! I'm so hooked on this!
