okay so I read this story years ago and thought it was okay MAINLY because it was one of the first stories that introduced me to "smaller top x bigger bottom" type dynamics which are rare in yaoi/BL. I was so used to the typical tiny petite bottom, so I liked this regardless of the shitty plot. Now after years, I fully realize how shitty this story is and the fact that every character in this is deranged in some way but honestly it's nothing new lol. Like the way ppl are talking bout it in the comments you would think it one of the worst like dark fall or jinx or other shit in yaoi. But it's really it's THAT bad imo. Especially when Yuki; who was a victim of abuse, actually apologized for his actions repeatedly & had character development, and both Yuki and Tastumi sought out to be better for themselves and each other. It's obvious it started off toxic asl but they became healthy, got their cute happy ending too. I don't understand why there's an overwhelming negative response to this story in the comments when the same energy isn't giving to far worse stories on this site. Idk yall.
Also, FUCK yukis abusive bum ass dad and that disgusting guy he hooked up with. That guys pmo, you were together ten years ago, let it go bro. You not being into sex doesn't make you any less of a sexual predator and an exploiter.
Anyways, I rest my case(◡ ω ◡)
Literally one of the best BLs out there omggg
And after reading chapter 70, I can say that no other BL top is as much of a ride or die than Dahyeok. Argue with the wall.Like what normal civilian kidnaps gangsters and crashes their car into a warehouse to save their bf??he's definitely one of the best for sure. And I love the fact that the author confirmed he's also a bit twisted, so Minhyeok and In-yul make a great couple. I mean it's already pretty obvious that they're literally perfect together. Reading the story was so fun, I can't believe I started when it just came out, it doesn't even feel like it's been years. The ending came as a shock to me but I still loved it.(kinda would've preferred if the pink haired bastard and his glasses bf had died but it's aiit ig lmao). 100/10
Hopping from one cheater to another might not be the best play here but at the same time I wouldn't say that the mc's ex and ML are the same. ML was a loose man and a broke bum that was using anyone for money, I'm sure the women he were with could tell that much. It's not the same as being a boyfriend in a committed long term relationship for almost a decade and cheating on the them the entire time with a woman.. idk about y'all but to me that's worse┐(￣ヘ￣)┌. Anyway, since it's a fictional world imma believe that nothing bad happens in their relationship afterwards and from the extra chapter, they're definitely going strong(◡ ω ◡). The ML got his life together, became serious about relationships and since we can literally see his thoughts as readers then I have no reason to believe he isn't being sincere with mc. They'll be alright, their relationship is cute and I love that they worked it all out. But the real star of the show is the art & anatomy, obsessed with a bigger buffer uke and a shorter slimmer seme. I love it so much(✯ᴗ✯). Also, does anyone also think that the artist would do GREAT in the horror/psychological genre??? The vibe in the first couple chapters has me thinking I missed a tag lmao
I'm on chapter 67 rn so y'all don't jump me for this one but I'm starting to have no hope in their relationship anymore?? I SWEAR I'm not hating or anything but.... atp I'm thinking Jin should do whatever the fuck he wants to do and rule over the company, or go on his suicide mission or whatever he wants and Mathew should just move on to someone else or something and get therapy (bro clearly needed that from the moment he lost his parent or maybe even before that). He keeps chasing after jin and it's just been one bad thing after another with no light at the end of the tunnelಥ‿ಥ. I've been reading this story since it came out in 2021, and I'm obviously still a fan so if they work it out I'll definitely be happy but with the way it's going I'm just like "Everything's gone to shit, everyone should give up already(╯ರ ~ ರ)╯︵ ┻━┻ " But all I want is for Brandon to die idk how y'all are finding him attractive, he's disgusting.
Yh I agree like the only way I can see this going and it feeling earned and mildly okay is if it goes the mania route with the ending if they do end up both alive and well and together
Okay I finally caught up to chapter 71, and again I say; I NEED BRANDON DEAD. Anyway, I really don't like the way it looks like Mathew is giving up his life for Jin. He's clearly a talented artist so seeing him seemingly give up that one thing in his life to go risk all for Jin is kinda painful to me. Plus, I can smell the angst coming. I can sense someone's about to die and I don't think it's just gonna be brandon. so POTATO, PUT THE GUN DOWN AND GO SUBMIT YOUR ART TO THE EXHIBIT, LEAVE THE MAFIA SHIT TO THE ACTUAL MAFIA IM BEGGING ATP
righttt I was just thinking about that lol. I have a feeling there's gonna be a time skip and they're gonna have to be apart for a while.. I think it's kinda necessary but at the same time I hate that route so much
Ye it's soooo.... Sigh.
As someone who has extreme abandonment trauma like I don't think it's gonna get any better especially with his age and how fucked the story is. I understand the mental process completely. It is so sad how trauma will make u have such low self preservation skills, self respect, identity etc. soooo....
I ain't got no hope .
For real, I am no longer a big fan of their relationship anymore. Mathew's obsession with Jin is not cute.
YOU GET ITಥ‿ಥ
Chitose(seme) was very immature and doesn't communicate unless he's first runs away and gets chased by Shinogu. he's so annoying and hardly got any character development unlike Shinogu who progressively gets better each chapter. the uke was fucking amazing, loved him(づ￣ ³￣)づ
idk how to say this.. they're both not good people.. They've hurt each other multiple times. But at the same time I can understand why they were doing that. So I sorta pity them. They deserve each other really. I'm just glad they worked it out at the end.
Yeah they both had a very rough start to everything but they eventually got where they needed to go even if it was messy. A couple of dumb dumbs in a way that eventually came out better people for it lol. Not everyone takes the "best" route right off the bat and their relationship looks like it'll grow healthily after the last parts which is all that matters (づ￣ ³￣)づ. I like how the author was able to portray both characters being diabolical but at the same time having the brain cells to ACTUALLY reflect and both sides learn from it. Sometimes people really do lose themselves in reacting to things they weren't quite/truly ready for yet, but they didn't shy away from cooling off and resolving matters along the way ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
I only read this cuz a lot of people were saying the first couple was terrible and the second was fine. I thought to myself, "Nah, they're all exaggerating". But now that I've read this I can honestly say that:
The first couple was in fact absolute garbage, Haemin deserved so much better than that bastard uke. I hate bl stories were one person is disgustingly toxic asf and the other is an absolute dumbass pushover, and the toxic one causes lots of problems then the author makes them look like some happy healthy couple at the very end of the story. Like nuh-uh, we saw those 40-60 chapters of toxicity, don't try and gaslight us into thinking that they're perfect together(￢_￢).
Anyways, yall were right about the first couple being trash but kinda wrong about the second, imo they weren't great either and honestly they were toxic too but kinda boring. I was already struggling to finish the story from the very beginning lol but I had to drop when I was half way through with the second couple. I just couldn't do it anymore.
So in conclusion, this story was kinda a waste of time lol
I NEEEEDDD LOVE LIKE THIS｡:ﾟ(;´∩`;)ﾟ:｡
