These are going to be very unpopular opinions but, many things that happen are just dumb imo.
1) Their first time is rapey to say the least, 2) Sex is not supposed to be painful every single time you have it brush, does the author have a fetish for people feeling pain in a non-pleasurable non-consensual way during intercourse? 3) They are way too controlling (just some exemples: friends can't touch you at all, you should not go to parties, etc) 4) They are eternally in love with each other in just literally 2 weeks. I mean, i can accept it for Aiden, but Seowon is meeting him now for the first time and didn't even know he might like men too. 5) Why the is the father so weird about Seowon being sexually active, saying he is too young? He is not a child ffs, he is an adult having sex with another adult his own age. 6) The fact that his lung disease happened because he has a uterus makes ZERO sense. What are we talking about here??? Then all afab people should also have lung disease lmao
haha to me,
1) if the SW felt really triggered after their first time, he wouldve called his dad to come home faster or maybe avoid AD in some ways. 2) sex CAN feel painful for the first few times. it comes and goes. especially when a person hasnt done it for so long/has never done it before. it takes a while for one to adjust an object being thrusted into them. later in the chapters SW doesnt seem to whine about pain that much anymore (if my memories are correct). 3) i believe that their controlling atittudes are mutual? sure to us its toxic at some point but they dont mind it and it doesnt really affect their relationship negatively, so theres no need to worry about that. 4) true, it mightve been fast-paced for SW to fall in love with AD, but hes so sure about it. if this relationship goes wrong then he'll learn that he was too hasty for a relationship. people irl would break up even when theyve known each other since they were kids. if SW and AD's relationship lasts long, then good for them. 6) its fiction ! letting a guy having an uterus is already nonsense. i believe that some of these are not that big of an issue or maybe im someone who is used to these type of things. anything could happen in fiction stories ! no need to relate them to reality that much hahah
Of course it's fiction lol, but even the illogical needs to be logic in the structure of the fictional world. For example, mpreg happens in omegaverse too, but it's put in a system where it becomes logical according to that world building. Idk if I managed to explain myself, but yeah.
About the sex: of course the author makes SW be okay with the sex even though it was very dub-con. The character will be okay with it because the author decided that way. That doesn't take away from the fact that there was no need, for the author, to depict it that way. The critic is to the author, and way too many other authors, since there really is no need to make the scenes like that. Imo it doesn't even feel like something that Aiden, alway so caring, would do. About the pain: no, sex could cause some discomfort the first times or after a long time, but it should not cause pain if the prep is good. Even here, there was no need to depict SW crying in pain and asking to stop because it's so painful, only to not be listened to. What you do in this situation is stop, listen to your partner, and if you both are willing to continue, maybe focus a bit more on the prep and preliminaries before diving back into it.
About the mutual controlling behavior in the relationship: yep, you're right, both of them have this behavior, but a relationship can be toxic even when it comes from both parts, and not only one partner. That's my opinion at least, you don't have to agree with me. I just find, from experience, that the best and most stable relationships, even with the long distance, are the ones where there is a lot of mutual trust and respect
I don't really like when they use this trope of one guy being in love (and not liking or having a crush, but love) with the others for literal years after meeting with him once as a kid/teen, with barely any interaction at all. It just makes no sense and makes it totally unrealistic and cheesy. Also, it takes away from the depth of the story because we don't get to see why and how he fell in love with the other, we just have to accept that he loves him since that one encounter years ago. I hope the plot gains some more depth and becomes more intriguing soon
Are you referring to Coach Lee? Because Ch. 12 explains the reason why he 'falls in love' with Woogyun. Coach Lee is clearly infatuated and smitten here. And realistically, this kind of instance happens.
right. people have crushes without even a single interaction with their crushes all the time. parasocial relationships are also a good example
Sure! They don't last years though, or even if they do, they are not love, but a crush instead.
I mean, it kinda doesn't. It shows one interaction lol
they often do last years, and by that point, why not just call it love? it matters enough for someone to last a long time even without significant progress in the relationship. coach lee may be more in love with the idea of woogyun, but i don't see any reason to downplay his infatuation.
Ahah okay, I guess we just have very different points of view, it's fine! I was just stating my opinion :)
Did I forget I read it or is there no chapters about Heesoo and Dojun's wedding? I would have loved to see it
Rereading this now and tbh Hyesung was pretty reasonable in his behaviors
Like, of course he would be scared of an alpha after he was assaulted by that same alpha, of course he wouldn't want to live with him, of course he would try to get out of there... and he never wanted the child, and had every right to not want to be involved.
His relationship with Byul is now very cute and sweet nonetheless.
Poor guy went through some tough traumatizing shit
I’m lowkey happy y’all are realizing this
They all have the same face. Lame story I just didn't like it
Initially it's pretty dubious consent, I'm tired of it... why must it be like that in so many mangas... also the side couple is weird af. They might not be blood related but they are 100% siblings. It still is incestuous. I skipped their chapter. It was totally unnecessary to make their plot like that, seriously. This two points brought the rating down which I admit is a pity because the characters were enjoyable as well as the plot. The art was good too
Yes sure let's make a story about a 13-14 yo middle schooler that gets involved with a 19 yo. No creepy and weird at all.
The moment this moves from merely platonic I'm out
Complessively good but, there are some problems. I think the situation of cohabitation of beastmen and humans is not clear, also why are they killing each other...? Plus we are given no explanation about what happened to Yuki's mother, why did she suddenly disappear? Why had she kept Rou a secret to Yuki until now? How did she meet their father and where is he now? How did Rou get involved with Omi? Who is exactly Omi, and why is he head of a hunters organization if he is depicted to care about some of the beasts?? We miss too much infos sadly. The main story is very good but it feels like it is floating in a vacuum.
Also it is a bit weird and unjustified that a beast would fall in love with a killer of his owns and vice-versa. How can Yuki not even flinch seeing Godai killing beastmen as nothing, multiple times?
There is the problem that age is not clear too. We know Godai is "not even thirty" but how old is Yuki? It feels a bit off
Honestly it's weirding me out a bit how the fact that Miyai was in a "relationship" with such an older boy is treated as normal
Yeah no, I've been worried about that since the first mention of the tutor ;;
The thing is I've noticed in Japanese manga that they say they broke up, when what they mean is one was rejected by the other. Their wording makes it sound like they were in a relationship but it was only flirting or courtship
Well i guess we'll find out in the next chapters. Let's hope it doesn't get too weird
Help, should I read this? I got to ch 14 and am not liking it at all: the mc is annoying and the ml is a b. Does it get better? Is it worth reading?
I think it is worth reading. The ml is real dickhead tho, but i hope he doesn't get worse. Me personally keep reading it bc the mc is not a typical crybaby and stupid bottom.
He's not a crybaby just too dense sometimes. Is like a Lamb and a Lion kinda relationship
