Na jieun's Favorite

I like where this is going. i hope my nasuharu ship will stay strong and not be swayed by cliche 'bad' guy winning trope. kaya is precious. his red flags were only the result of his traumatic childhood but DAMN PLEASE LET IT BE NASU (though i know it's probably will never happen since it's haru and kaya on every artworks and the title are about them too but i will keep manifesting).

it is wholesome enough that haru is trying to explain that kaya might mistook family love as romantic. it will be so so so much better if haru and kaya stay as siblings. haruno has always consider him as her little brother fgs!! some said it's illogical for Ran to genuinely consider Kaya as her lil bro as they've only live together for some months but Ran is trying her best to keep her mom happy. when her mom asked her to take care of her new lil bro, so she did.

also to be clear i also am annoyed with how indecisive haruno is :/ please be firm girl. STAND YOUR GROUND U AND NASU ARE IN A RS?!!

Came back to say ml is a pedo idc how “wholesome” and “cute” this story was. He is a creep who liked 16 year old also he had audacity to say she is immature FUCKING PERV OFC SHE IS SHE IS SIXTEEN YOU NASTY MF

there is absolutely no need to draw explicit rape scenes over and over and over and over and over again. this author is sick in the head, all their boot licking fans as well. the author is basically completing a checklist atp. plot can exist and keep itself well afloat without the unnecessary and disgusting scenes. and I bet there's more shots of geom's traumatizing past than actual scenes dedicated towards the development and progression of the story too.

this is depressing, im not really ugly, but somehow i understand how she feel. How she thinks the boy deserve better, she know she's messed up and she didn't want to hurt the boy.... i think the author end it like this on purpose but i still want more T_T cause this is really good

To all the people who are saying Seiji is a coward, his fear is totally valid and rational.

First the environment they were in, all the people around them said it's only natural with girls, some even said it was disgusting even to hold hands. Growing up in that kind of surrounding grows a fear in you and he loved his best friend the one person who he didn't want to hate him.

Second the moment he realised his feelings for Hinata, it was at time where Hinata was molested, and were still kids so naturally he thought it was disgusting of him to have same thoughts as the old man who molested his best friend.

Also coming out is not easy.
I feel Seiji's character was more of a realistic character.

What's the point of making such story, if not for unhealthy voyeurism and brain rot, honestly?

I'm asking this for those who camp here everyday to defend like hyenas this title and can't seem to find even one little wrong aspect to it.
There's hardly any real reason or value as to why a content like this should exist, aside the fact that it exists because it was created and mostly for porn consumers.
What at first appeared to be a revenge bl reveals to be another rape porn of the worst kind. It was written in a way that you can't sympathize with the characters or blame them totally for their wrongdoings once you realize that both are absolute trashes to each other, so what's left? The porn. This enables the readers to satisfy their voyeurism and mortiferous curiosity without feeling bad.
It seems bl authors are unable to write a decent revenge plot without turning it into a shit show of degrading obscenities with mindbreak. Thanks to the Korean readers who protested, if not there's chance you'd read beastiality too with this one. This poor Jiwook have no idea... And we all know that if not for the handsome characters, and mostly the art bringing it, you fans of such would be there wanting to wash your eyes clean and a refund for your wasted time - just like for Pocket n°7. Lol.

And before invoking Hannibal Lecter... Classic movies like Silence of the Lambs, Saw or series like Dexter have a moral dimension to them and a MESSAGE to convey while they can display the most gruesome scenes. There's injustice, crimes but also RETRIBUTIONS. Punishment. The criminals pay their crimes by losing their lives or being sentenced to prison. The spectators bear the movie till the end bc they know the outcome of such actions. This makes the movie, book... digestible and bearable.
In this case of Reverse Thinking, message is nonexistent. There's no retribution nor redemption, only harm. Any reader who was expecting something is left hopeless and drained. It feels like a mental assault.

Don't give the excuse that all this brutality and g/rape is fictional, therefore we should let it a pass for everything. Litterature and art, science, start with an idea and concept, but have the power to move societies and influence the world. We know that for some people, Star Wars has become a religion and philosophy. Some genius writers are deified... So words and imaginery can have huge impacts on people's mind and actions, for the best or the worse. However depending on the situation the aspect 'fiction' is either willingly omitted, or brought up as justification bc you porn consumers have no other reason as to why you can enjoy this type of thing.
I personally don't have issue reading controversial stories involving sa, rape or violence, simply bc yaoi is populated by these books. I, though, have issues regarding that kind of show and poorly written plots ; the absolute absence of retribution for the perpetrators.

About that last point, this story have a problem of consistency and rationality - should I say, just like other pornwas with Stockholm Syndrom (No Reason, the Bad Life...).
After ml rape and beat the shit out of mc, they always joke, kiss and laugh, do 'banters' as if that was normal human interactions. Though inconsistent, the authors need to include these little exchanges bc if not, it will fall into the category of horror, and not 'bl' :')

Last paragraph:
To be clear, I have dropped that title a while ago. This won't be the last of the sort and I'm afraid this is just the start of a florilège and mass production of these extrem, violent contents in Manhwas, for the bl genre. This is what is popular now, and this is what you want it seems. Titles like KS, Warehouse, An Easy Target... had contributed to the production of works like Reverse Thinking and other Corrosive and now these vulgar stories amplify that tendency. Many more authors will try their hands on this niche ; they want to work and get their bag and they know that it will garanty them exposure and money.

Stories like this just make me want to stay away from bl, tbh, specifically from manhwas. Aside some valuable titles lost amongst the growing mass, majority of bl manhwas are porn with same forgettable plots and ever growing p*nis. Tired.
Where's the romance, the forbidden love, the build-up, the mystery, where's the intrigue...?

She bagged two gentlemen just like that, teach me your ways!!

You dark romance weirdos, genuinely disgust me you’re the same as those BL goers just in different font you guys always have the same ass excuse too. How can you possibly sit there and enjoy and read someone basically getting violated and raped. That’s basically the whole plot.

What a major POS. He's def the type to one day murder his spouse in a crime of passion. Girl, get out of there. This was a mid-ass manga about a boring ass couple, saved only by the well-written female chatacter. Poor thing is stuck in a mediocre manga surrounded by mediocre men.

Sakuraba is the cliche of the closeted man with internalized (might not be so internalized) misogyny and homophobia, he goes from being scared to be seen as “abnormal” to showing his feelings and being vulnerable little by little. i’m not saying he wasn’t trash at first because that would be lying, he was a playboy with little to no regards for the women he dated (then again he’s a misogynistic), we can see that this come from how he was educated which isn’t a justification but an explanation. He sees Asami as unmanly (such a weird word) and is repulsed by his own attraction to him due to his internalized homophobia. at the end of the manga, not only does he tell asami he loves him but he also shows improvement in his behavior (crying in front of asami, learning how to cook which is often seen as a “woman hobby” etc…). the end is an amorce to a more honest future for them both.
now there’s some think I didn’t quite like and I think we’re unnecessary: the cheating plot wasn’t needed at all… I think it goes against Asami’s straight forward way of acting and doesn’t really match his character when you know he was aware of his chef having a wife. The ex is really disappointing as well and doesn’t deserve his wife… lastly I didn’t like the moment when Asami was telling Sakuraba about how he didn’t wanted to be treated like a woman (he said smth along the lines of “I won’t laugh or be happy if you pay the bill and hold the door for me like a woman would), honestly pretty weird if you ask me, women aren’t just simple being who needs things to be paid for and door to be help open for them to be happy, and reducing them to that is meh… wish the author would have developed deeper into the misogynistic aspect of the story.

Aight first off she is in no way obligated to show respect to this guy. She didn't know him and to top it off she found out that he was stalking her. she's not a "bitch" for not wanting to go or for burning that creepy ass notebook.
I mean, how would you feel if some fucking guy asked you to go to the funeral of a guy who you didn't even know, just because the dead guy had a crush on you. And then while at the funeral his mom gives you his diary that's filled with thing's about you, with specific dates and times. LIKe bitch? I'd be creeped the fuck out!
what's worse is that his own mother and best friend just stood on the sidelines and let him be a little creeper, they inhibited that stalking behaviour, which would only make him think that he isn't doing anything wrong.

I honestly have no idea as to why anyone hates this girl. She's coping quite well with having found out that she was being stalked.

The art cover was a set up. A landmine. My mind exploded after only four pages into the first chapter.

This is the definition of a intermediate artist who must be between 18-20 wanting to draw out their virgin, beautiful, loyal, pure MC with a sexy demon who will only come to love her cause she’s “different” tasting from other girls.

I already KNOW the girl must be one of his old loves or FIRST love cause AINT no way the dude started to think the other women taste like crap after sleeping with so many in prior chapters. Plus, how in the hell is she wanting to be his only but “it’s too embarrassing” to do it?

Y’all, do people just not have a fear of STDs? I’m being serious here. The data show that even syphilis—SYPHILIS—is on the climb. Not to mention all the other deadly diseases that no one seems to care about. Reading this story had me realizing that people like these characters exist.

Y’all be safe out here. For real. I beg.

weird to think that cults actually work like this and systems like this actually exist even weirder to read about a cult in such an institutionalised setting tho. but at the same time, making a cult is definitely something rich people could get up to

Whoever is saying he was protecting him from sumn or smthn. Even getting killed by a murderer is far far better than being tied up getting r*ped and assaulted day/night for months long

Chapter 74 is by far the most infuriating shit chapter I've read ever since the new story started. Hyun, I had hope for you. So tell me why are you spouting the same nonsense as everyone else? Why is this happening? And Kiwoon? What can I even say to you? I'm not denying that what happened to Kiwoon wasn't traumatizing but there's a limit to how much concern can be shown to someone who physically suffered for one day and maybe emotionally suffered for a few more that too as a figment of his own imagination. 

Jaeha didn't go through years of mental, physical, and physiological abuse to be termed the attacker and have the one guy who he thought he could look to help for terms as the victim. Every single thing in their conversation made it seem like Kiwoon didn't think Jaeha was worthy of getting any help or assistance because he hit him once. It's insane that everyone in this story only sees Jaeha as an antagonist either to be hated or tamed. 

It is sickening and I worry for Jaeha even more because no one around him is willing to admit that he suffered the most and is most deserving of any and every kind of help. It feels like the author is unsure how to represent the characters they wrote, they don't realise the narrative they're setting up is wrong.

Imagine if Jaeha by chance heard anyone of what they had said to each other, all the efforts he'd put into moving on would be undone and he would run away again this time permanently scared for like because the one person he thought he could trust saw him as an attacker instead of the person whose been trying to get help all this time.

Im reading this while listening to the song "Heavenly by CAS" so good

Wow, so let me get this straight. ML was watching him from far, freezing to death, only showing up when he sees him getting in someone else's car? What a man haha

Every single central character was demented and had a sickening obsession that rivals psychosis. I wonder if its possible for a cluster of people to come together like this in real life. I hope not. But anyway, this is all the mother's fault, so she pisses me the fuck off. if she hadnt controlled and imprisoned Jaeha in a bird trap, then he wouldnt have merged his art aestheic with his philosophy and become detached from reality. He wouldnt have proposed to Dami so soon, nor be as attracted to her. The same goes with his relationship with Na-Eun. And I just gotta say-- hes so idea with the concept of a child, but what about actually raising the child??? Ugh, and Dami's childhood was very, very interesting. Its borderline incest propelled by a sister shoehorned into the role of a mother who has an extreme desire to have her sister's beautiful body. Ive never seen anything like this before, and I applaud the author for this... If it werent for everyone being deranged in some capacity, I wouldve given this a 5/5 (￣∇￣")
Sorry for typing so much.

Won your still a pedofile lol you’re not better than your fuck up family. That apple didn’t fall far from the tree lol
