To be a sadistic yet renowned photographer that ties up horny boys who are confused about their feelings for each other and apparently need an incognito cupid to play master behind a camera to set them up? And then said photographer relishes their denial and desire as inspiration for writing work? Why have I never thought of this career path before?!
What an amazing profession
First read this novel years ago… pretty sure I read it 3 to 4 times. It's definitely one of my all-time favorite BL novels. Never crossed my mind that it might get adapted into a manga!!!
Really??.. where u read it?? Can u share to me??..
There was a translator who posted excellent translations on a word press blog… I'm afraid I forget the address! It'll probably come up if you Google it
https://isolarium.wordpress.com/2014/03/29/of-beauty-watch-chapter-2/ this is last chap but you can find it here
Ok.. i will try to find it
Thank you...
Was it really necessary for Crow to do all of that when he already knew Kai was so into him??? Like he could have easily gotten more or less the same result in a healthier, more ethical manner. He obviously has some psychological issues, perhaps an extreme need to control or monopolize. Looking forward to seeing how this unfolds and why crow behaves like this.
Lol he probably wanted to make sure he would never leave him by making him feel responsible
Yeah, I bet you're right! Seems we will likely never find out... Apparently this is complete at six chapters +2 extras （/TДT)/
First time a translators note made me literally laugh out loud thanks for the updates!! Can't wait for the seme to fall hard and then drown in his own regret
The double standards… definitely highlights the difference in societal expectations for men versus women regarding sexual behavior.
sorry huh. can you explain the double standards your talking about
Yeah I'm confused
maybe theyre trolling
Probably this person is talking about the double standard as it being perfectly ok for the boys to fuck around with girls and not care but when Shion first turns into a girl and brings up the prospect of fucking other guys it becomes a problem but when they they were fucking randkm girls there was no problem in that. Before this all happened they were fucking all types of random girls. And for all we know to these girls they could have been also just random men tgey were screwing.
Nothing too flashy about this one—no crazy plot twists, no drama or tragedy, no hanky-biting cliffhangers... BUT the emotional tension and sexual chemistry is delicious perfection. The characters are realistically portrayed and “fit together” so well, despite their differences. The story unfolded so flawlessly that I totally forgot the concept of pacing itself. The smut was hot and plentiful, supporting rather than eclipsing the romance. And the art OMG just gorgeous... at first I didn’t like Ryohei’s character design, but he really grew on me. :3 and Yuuma is sexy af!!
My third time reading this one, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first. Looking forward to rereading this again in the future.
Also Ryohei is such a textbook Leo lmao
I agree.
Usually not a fan of translators notes because they're distracting, but this translator always cracks me up and says the right thing at the right time. Thanks so much for your hard work!
