Ok, took 50 chapters or so but we’re finally getting to some sexy times…Unfortunately, there seems to be some confusion on how to actually proceed with the sex. They want to make the uke take charge and be the more assertive one, but at the same time want the seme to be super lax and almost non-reactive to any of uke’s moves. Bitch, you better MOAN? Why is uke the only one really feeling anything? Why make this seem weirdly one-sided now? If I was doing foreplay on a guy and he told me to “hurry up” I’d pack my shit up and leave. Is this scenario just out of the artist’s comfort zone, and they’re more comfortable depicting heterosexual sex? I mean THOSE scenes were pretty intense, so why does our gay couple feel so stiff?
The seme has such a cool and insanely unique design for a BL character, that it’s almost jarring how ordinary the other is by comparison. He really is the most stereotypically girly uke, even acting like a cliche anime girl. It don’t even hate feminine ukes, but it was incredibly distracting here, kinda outdated, reminds me of how ukes were depicted back in the cheesy yaoi mangas of the 90s or early 2000s . It didn’t feel like I was reading a love story between two men. Just my opinion, tho
Gaaaah, The expressions in this comic are just FANTASTIC. You can fully see and feel the exhaustion, anguish, desperation, and confusion painted on each face so perfectly. Everyone looks like they’re ready to snap at any moment. Everyone feels like they’re on the brink of insanity and despair. It’s really great.
