This was plain disgusting to me. An adult preying on 18 to 19 year olds _:(´ཀ`」∠):_
And trying to pass this disgusting concept and the SA as comedy. What is wrong with these authors.
Edit: 18-19 International age/ 20 years in Korean age.

It would be great if this is adapted to animation. This work has great action scenes as well as psychological elements. I would love to see the action scenes in animation.
What's with authors drawing the light haired characters with long eyelashes to make them "pretty".
When all other characters are drawn with no extensions on eyes only these "supposedly pretty" characters are drawn with these weird extensions on eyes (This character, Mido from Unfinished Business, Frey, Noah (Kill the light), and list goes on).
I feel like someone stuck shark teeth on their eyelids.
Also, starting looks way too similar to DASH. Hopefully it doesn't go in that direction.
It's because we the readers love those characters drawn the way you have observed. The authors give the readers what they want. That's how they make money.
True
just wait until you read who can define popularity (but read if it’s good)
(≧▽≦) I just saw that work. And yeah, same syndrome (⊙…⊙ )
For lack of better words, WHAT STUPIDITY is this?
Omegaverse or even Guideverse makes some sense from a evolution standpoint, but CAKE? ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
What is the point of evolution based on cake? How? Even considering all the negative evolutions which exists, why would cake have any significance or role in evolution. A Human only concept of baked goods.
What's next? Dress verse? CPU Verse? Pesticide Verse?
Human mind is really strange. (⊙…⊙ )
i just gotta say. i laughed so hard reading this like these are my thoughts exactly lmao
(≧▽≦)
How did Marvel turn into DC （￣へ￣）
To clarify, I am using a popular stereotype here. Though I do not think one is darker than the other, this just fits.
There it is again. Raise in another stupid trope related to light haired characters. I see a lot of semes these days who are (called as) "as pretty as a girl", "as pretty as a doll", "how can there be someone so beautiful", "beautiful as a cute", "cuter than any girl", "looks like a doll", "so gorgeous" etc and for some reason majority of these happen to be blond, silver/light haired characters. This, Frey, Unfinished Business, and ton of other works follow this when the seme is a blond or light haired character. I saw just 1 work in the recent times where the seme is described as beautiful and has black hair.
I don't understand why these authors are so obsessed with the light haired characters being beautiful and dark hark semes being handsome. When am I going to see light haired semes being characterized or being called as Handsome damn it. (I know there are some, but this is a minority).
If you disagree, please enlighten me and share a few works where black/dark haired semes are called all these.
Disclaimer : I do not confirm to sex positions based on looks, physique or personality. I don't have a problem with pretty semes, or strong ukes or anything in between. What I have a problem is with light haired characters being persistently portrayed as only beautiful, pretty, pitiful, docile and downright door mats (be it as a uke or seme) and dark harried characters persistently portrayed as handsome, reliable, aggressive, ruthless etc. That too in works produced by countries with predominantly dark hair.
i felt your passion lol, these are two where the dark haired semes are called beautiful

:D Thank you!!
I understand the father not knowing the child is adopted, but how can the mother (and the whole family) not know that the child is adopted? Lean is plain stupid (for thinking this), along with all the other characters. I just can't put this in a nice way.
Where do these people (father in law, husband, etc) think the womb is? Alexei can beat up, injure and be as violent as he wants as long as Lean's womb is uninjured and he can give birth? Where is the logic in this? The womb does not function in isolation, it requires the other parts of the body to be functioning as well.
I understand Alexei's anger to some extent since he was raped by Lean while in a coma. But this guy also is always violent with his partners and gets away with murder. And Lean? He wants to somehow make Alexei love him. Unfortunately I see this last part is somewhat true in real world. Some people do get away with murders, and some people stupidly stay with their abusers just because they think they can change them.
Not to try to excuse Lean but I think it was explained Alexei while in comma sensed his fated mate and released pheromones, inducing Lean's heat and what happened. Still bad and horrible.
Omega verse complicates it :(
The reviews for this were very really good and stated that the ML (Jaekyoung) was a green forest but had a problematic MC (Jiheon). After reading the first 100 chapters I would have to completely disagree with this.
Jiheon has a lot of one night stands but he is not deceitful, He always clearly communicates his expectations and limitations. He also tells people who are interested in him, that he is not into relationships. The issue I see with him so far is going along with all the things Jaekyoung wants. He also projects his regrets on Jaekyoung and doesn't want Jaekyoung's reputation to be tainted even though Jaekyoung himself does not care for it. He also starts a relationship with Jaekyoung for this reason.
Coming to the so called green forest, I don't have any issues with Jaekyoung's blunt personality or even with his lack of communication skills. With such a straight forward personality showcased in the first few chapters, you would think He would be the same with his love interest. Man.. was I wrong. He is very deceitful, coerces, manipulates and guilt trips Jiheon into sleeping with him, completely disregards a "NO" or "Please Stop" from Jiheon in bed, continues to manipulate, guilt trip and coerce in all subsequent personal interactions. It is shown that he greatly admires and respects Jiheon as a swimmer, but the respect hardly translates to his behavior. I don't see how this is green flag, let along a green forest. Sure, there might be great character development in future chapters which I have not read yet, but it still does not make him a green flag.
The story and story telling was ok. The starting was interesting with professional athletes and the politics around it, but 30 chapters in, the story telling gets very blurry. The world of athletes takes a backseat (with occasional glimpses).
THISSS I was so confused when people kept calling hima green forest because reading the novel.....he kept manipulating him and it just pissed me off
Yeah, I agree with this. People seem to have different expectations when it comes to ABO and hot men. Like, "oh he's so hot and he loves him, how dare Jiheon not want to be in a relationship with him right away and do everything he wants?" You see a lot of that in fandom.
Agreed. I read a comment somewhere along the lines of, "MC previously told the ML that he did not want to get pregnant, so the ML tried his best not to make the MC pregnant by offering morning after pill etc after the heat. He is such a green flag."
The bar is so low that doing the bare minimum basic courtesy of not FORCING pregnancy on your partner is seen as a green flag.
Finally completed the novel (not the extras). I don't think I even want to go there.
Jaekyoung basically manipulates Jiheon even for the pregnancy. Even though Jiheon firmly states that he does not wish to be pregnant, Jaekyoung repeatedly asks him if he was sure and that he (Jaekyoung) would be thrilled to have a daughter.
Had to skip a lot of content to be able to complete this. I just could not stomach their intimacy most of the time (not just talking about bed scenes here). Jaekyoung keeps coercing and manipulating Jiheon till the end and Jiheon just goes along with anything Jaekyoung says. No other thoughts what so ever.
The only part I liked was the manipulation of media in the professional setting and how the Jiheon resolved it.
A blond Raven ((sigh))
I have an albino flying around in a park nearby XD
Wow. An albino Raven. That's like the rarest of rare sights.
I come from an area where the raven population is quite high, but have never seen one. Hope I see and photograph one before I die. I love the black of ravens and takes photos of them quite a lot :)
Coming back to the manga, authors really like to write about cosmic flukes...
So a 24 year old TEACHER is taking the guardianship of a 19 year old who he is interested in romantically? Moreover the 19 year old is quite child like and was sheltered?
This to me, SCREAMS grooming and pedophilia. What is with this disgusting trend of stories with pedophilia and grooming these days.
What r u on it's pretty much a language barrier, u can clearly see that the mermaid/fish is just confused when it about the "things on land" but he's pretty much knowledgeable when it's about the ocean. 5 years ain't even that big of an age gap plus they r both legal.
Agreed, they’re both young adults who behave rather innocently too
Girl...what are you talking about
comments like his pmo so bad like are we even reading the same story??
My point was not the age gap rather that a TEACHER was preying on a child like teen.
He might be knowledgeable about ocean, but the point stands that he is not knowledgeable about land and hence will depend on the adult teacher for acquiring that knowledge.
How is he preying??? So far he's not being aggressive(doesn't hurt him), doesn't demand anything from the merman, he's not manipulating him or deceiving him, and the merman is as free as a bird, this means that he can depend on others as well since he is not in any way shape or form restricted from communicating w anyone. Would u rather he stay at the aquarium devoid of any knowledge? Which do you think is the predatory relationship
“Child like teen” both of those are wrong. He’s a grown man, as mentioned. And his so called “child like” attitude comes from not knowing anything about the culture he’s in. If a young adult moved to a different country and didn’t speak the language or know the customs, they’d be innocent clueless as well.
If the TEACHER was not so mesmerized by the beauty of the 19 year old mermaid and had a crush on him, I would have agreed with you..
I would rather someone who does not have romantic inclinations towards the mermaid take him under their supervision for him to gain knowledge and not the teacher.
19 year olds are not adults. They are adolescents. They are neither kids not adults. They are in a transitionary period with more responsibilities put on them which makes most very unstable wisdom wise.
In this specific case he has a child like mentality towards human culture. He was sheltered all his life, and is going to rely on the TEACHER to acquire that information. The teacher already has romantic inclinations towards and is going to be his guardian of sorts. If the teacher was not taken in by the beauty and has a crush and took charge of the mermaid then it could be an innocent relationship as you stated.
Also, if a teacher or other adults with power of authority or influence over the young adult in a different country approached them with romantic intentions, I would still considered that as preying.
