oh i hate when official translations change their names like... thyere chinese why the fuck are they called "zachary" goofy ahh name
yahyul is so fake and a manipulator, the non con in the latest chapters is also disgusting i hate him
im dropping it at ch 22 because just what the fuck. the ml is such a manipulator, asshole, jerk and a selfish person it’s literally unbearable to read it. if anyone read it all pls tell me if he ever got a character development or is he still a dick
I have no fucking idea what was happening back at ch 22 and honestly I'm not sure what's happening rn reading a chapter per half a month doesn't do the story justice but it's overall pretty good and there is a lot of character development, like major theme of the story is how situations and upbringing affects a person
i thought thye would be a cute trans boy x cis boy couple but ummm....the guy is transphobic??? like not even lowkey, sure he may not want it but the fact that he STILL sees the mc as a girl is internalized transphobia and i hate how the uncle doesnt do anything with it? and idk what his parents have to do with it? him being blatantly transphobic? like am i missing the point or???? anyways great transmasc rep finally bc i know only like 2 of them rn
i totally agree with u cuz i cant stand him anymore, like how is it that hard to accept who he is☠
(also, may i know the other one with transmasc rep?)
yeah totally and its boys run the riot ( https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/boys_run_the_riot/) !! its p popular so u may know it already but if u dont make sure to read it! it was also made by a trans guy author so :33
i havent read this one, tysm ^o^
But he hates himself for it, like the whole problem is that he absolutely hates the fact that theres a possibility he might not see him as a man. I don't think he's really transphobic if he realises that its not right and that it hurts Rika. As for the uncle, there really isnt much he can do about it? Like you cant change someones feelings, he's letting Rika and Sasuki figure it out between themselves. And rika himself told satsuki that it's not all his fault.
it doesnt really matter whether he hates it or not its still internalized transphobia and it personally makes me hella uncomfy and i wouldnt be able to still talk with someone like that, knowing they will never see me as a man. so even while rika himself doesnt mind it, its still not okay. and the uncle as an adult should at least try to educate satsuki or wtv and not just let him go especially when its his nephew we’re talking about ???
Yeah but what would he say? what can he say that satsuki himself doesnt already know? This isnt something other people can help him with tbh, he needs to figure it out himself. This itself doesnt make him a bad person, rather what he does moving forward.
no one is imune against internalized transphobia. not even trans people themselve (well.. I can take myself as an example unfortunately). Acknowledging he has an issue (the fact that he still sees his crush a a girl) is actually not transphobic. what would be transphobic is him treating him as a girl WILLINGLY.
That being said : it is very much VALID for us (trans people) to feel uncomfortable with his character and voice our opinion. The realness of his caracter does hit too close to home..
me personally, I wouldnt go out with someone who does not sees me as my real identity but I wouldn't cut ties with them neither.
Trans person here: these are TEENAGERS. Please remember that no one's born "woke" and some of us were pretty fucking terribly -phobic at their age. I personally wasn't bad on the outside, but I battled with horrible inner lgbt-phobias.
I am uncomfortable with that character, but that's the idea of him being there, because it's showing a teenager who has never interacted with a trans person before and how he's coping with falling in love with them. Rika has body dysmorphia so he'll likely want to go through HRT and some sort of medical transition, and I hope we see how Satsuki copes with that, because that's something that's not even in his mind yet.
This manga is *realistic*, you can't expect most teenagers in his place and circumstances, especially in a conservative country (when it comes to the lgbt community), to act 100% perfectly.
me when i have no media literacy
???
u have no media literacy.
how lol
Because if he recognises it’s an issue, If he didn’t THEN it would be transphobia it’s kinda obvious and not black and whirw
i can finally say this is like one of the funniest mangas ive read on here likeee its so good!!! the only thing thats bothering me is the rape thing with reo and how normalised it is? like does genuinely no one in this manga notice the problem or what. bc without that i find no other problems its so cute and funny honestly
i hope they kiss!
OMG fr tho like... he seemed actually traumatized from it
No fr!! This could easily be a 10/10 manga if the whole bit with reo just did not exist
right
i hope taeman tells dahyuk soon ik their relationship will do a 180 but i need that spice and drama <333 also can we talk abt how attractive they are literally power couple best duo
bruh yahyul is such a jerk character downgrade is real. he’s also hella manipulative,,
also after ch. 38: it's even worse now...theres non consensual touching and possible r word in the next chapter explained by yahyul entering a mating season, like what the fuck
i thought this would be a fun and healthy relationship at the start cuz the mc is honestly way too good for all of the characters but i guess i was wrong..
I'm still hoping that by a miracle nothing ends up happening yet...
„its incredible, youre incredible” JESUS CHRIST JUST KISS ALREADY OH MY GOD
