I thought this story was quite unique, like it's my first time reading an isekai manhwa in which there are two protagonists and are twins.
They're supposed to have a mental age of 25, right? But why are they so immature and are acting like a 'kid' (I mean I understand that they're supposed to be like children but they're not actually five, they said it over and over again that they have mind of an adult... anyway! my point is that they're not really children).
I feel like they could've used their past knowledge to have an easier life like, they could've planned something after arriving at their father's palace. Like instead of being scared all the time (I mean I get the part that they were traumatized and they can only trust themselves), they could've charmed them, act cutesy or whtvr to get their family's favours (not that they need to cuz they were obviously loved) instead of misunderstanding everything bc you know they're fucking adults! Maybe pretending like children got to their heads and now they really think they are 5 (this is the author's fault btw) you've got no timw for that, they know it's only a matter of time before they die or get sacked but they still haven't got a plan. They're not even trying, they're accepting things for what it is. Even trusting the Duke just because he was 'nice' but can't trust their own family??? They know what the other people are saying behind their backs but didn't doubt the duke? Didn't even crossed their minds that he's just pretending. And when they learned that they weren't written in their family history's book they got hurt? You've got no time for that!
And also that manifesting thing, yeah, still couldn't quite understand it. If you manifest at 3, you become an 18 y/o (or older) and wouldn't grow again until you reach that age. Kinda fucked up if that were set in Earth. I mean like the 2nd prince he's freaking ten years old, but he has a body of an adult.
My take may be shitty, I'm sorry I couldn't write it any better I've got something more to say but I think I'll stop here. So yeah, this is my initial reaction and I'm just typing what comes to my brain first.
Why do you even want to read dark bl with rape and some shit if you just want to see the seme being nice and caring to his uke, like... That doesn't even make sense to Park Taesung's character. Park Taesung is an obsessed manupulative lying cunt, and fucking suck it up because he ain't changing. And also, Sooyoung is fucking bitchboy (but I like him being a bitchboy to Taesung), like can we all just appreciate how Black Apricot made his/her characters with a really distinctive personalities??? That's what yall failed to notice because you're too much focusing on the dub con and rapey parts. The plot is just beginning to start.
And also, stop with the Sooyoung should be with Minhyuk or other guy that will treat him right... First of all, does he even like him?? You're beginning to sound like that friend who meddles with other peoples affair leave him the fuck alone.
It sucks to read the comment section now. All of you just commenting "Damn, PTS is raping Sooyoung as always" "Why does he have to rape him?" "Rape" "Sooyoung deserves better" you know what you're about to read right? You should've kinda guessed that the mc will have a hard time and strange kinks on the side.
Always making everything morally correct when it is not supposed to be that way. Saying all that stuff but you still keep reading anyway.
It’s because this site is filled with tater tots who walk into a dark, hard-kink erotica and whine about how it’s not going their way because they get scared reading about yakuza acting like fucking yakuza. Half of the beanie babies on this site can’t handle anything more than a shounen-ai. They’re not ready for the bug leagues.
Taesung is a character writen in such a way to be consider a bastard. We are supposed to find him a shitty person. If we would look at him and think oh what a good person. The plot of this story wouldn't be making sense, and would fail at what it tries to do. We are supposed to hate the things he does. That is the proof the story is well writen. Unlike other mangas, that try to be dark but the plot is so all over the place that things just don't work. The plot is doing a good job at making us react about how shitty taesung is.
That is why i don't understand why some people complain that others have bad comments about teasung. That is literally the reaction we readers are supposed to have about him. It doesn't mean we are hating on the manga. The way he is writen is supposed to make us react and call him out for being shitty.
Let's be real, you like him. Maybe it's bc of his massive d but we all gotta start somewhere.
I CANNOOOOOOOOOOT
