Honestly, while I like cunning Makio, I want to see him being more flustered and unbalanced about Wachi. And why do I feel like the mangaka is making Wachi into such a pitiable guy. Sure he deserves it for playing around with girls in the past but man, idk I just feel sad for him now. He's been beaten up, betrayed, and even his lover doesn't come back home. That's honestly pretty sad.
Well actually I like seeing Wachi all pathetic and sad. What I like is that they are both bringing out emotions from each other that I'm sure they never thought they would feel. Makio getting mad and also being protective is new to him. I don't feel sorry for Wachi but I do want him to be happy in the end.
It is COMPLETELY okay to feel shock/disgusted/angry at gang-rape or rape in general EVEN if it's in a yaoi manga. It is OK to feel uncomfortable when reading such scene EVEN in a yaoi manga. EVEN if it's from your favourite mangaka, whose works you absolutely love, it is OK to tell yourself that you don't feel good reading a particular scene. This are just natural human feelings, and you can't help it. Some of y'all need to stop looking down or disrespecting people opinions regarding rape. So you like rape? ok cool. Just don't look down on those that doesn't like it. And it is totally up to them if they feel it is alright for them to continue to read yaoi or not. You are NOT them and it is not ok to tell them to stop reading yaoi just because they don't like rape. smh.
Well said mate. Respect of a mangaka's work and loving a storyline should never take away from the fact that rape and non-consensual sex should never be ok, or romanticised or normalised EVER. I just hope there's no hate trolls out there replying with nasty comments because the younger, more impressionable readers will get a warped idea of the realities of real life rape.
Most BL lovers love sex scenes (even bdsm, bara, threesomes depending on tastes). They are in fact, very suited to yaoi. I myself love caste heaven and works of Harada and expect some disturbing rape scenes cos I mentally prepare myself for it and know what to expect. But you can't say someone's not suited to Yaoi cos they felt uncomfortable seeing a gang rape in a manga clearly tagged as comedy/school life
Thank you for your comment. I mean, really. I've been reading yaoi for more than 12 years now and I still haven't accepted that people romanticize rape or think it's such a light matter. If it serves the plot, ok, I get it, cuz it generally is treated with more sensibility than this. I really hoped the 'gang rape' thing to be a joke among the guys from Yarichin, but I didn't enjoy this chapter, cuz I'm not ok with rape. And while I respect Ogoretsu for her stories and LOVE her manga, I wish more people won't feel like this is normal. Sometimes it disappoints me how fans threaten characters who get into the way of their ship or warm up to fuzzy cutesy feelings, but are completely numb to this kind of violence. ╥﹏╥
Well said..especially for me,I don't like rape in yaoi also senseless sex
Yeah I agree...
It's completely fine to enjoy rape in your yaoi (after all, yaoi is a form of sexual fantasy and everyone is entitled to have different types of fantasies) but is also completely fine and understandable to not like rape in your yaoi!
It's not meant to be disrespectful or insulting when someone says that they felt uncomfortable while reading the last update. It's only a matter of taste. And when it comes to sexual tastes, things get more diverse and controversial.
For me, I have to admit, although Ogeretsu Tanaka is one of my favorite yaoi authors, this manga is not really my thing. Rape, threesomes, polygamy aren't exactly my cup of tea so I can't get as excited for this manga as I do for the rest of this writer's work.
But that doesn't mean I criticize the author and fans. I do acknowledge the right of others to love "Yarichin ☆ Bitch Club" and I will never stop reading Ogeretsu Tanaka's work. It just means that I won't consider this specific yaoi as one of my favorites and reread it. Simple as that.
There's no need to be judgmental to each other just because we enjoy different things.
Problem is this is like watching a porn and expecting to find just romance. And another problem is when people, like someone in these replies think that if we don't feel disgusted by reading about rape in a yaoi manga then we probably won't feel disgusted by it in real life... Jesus christ. Whatever, mine was just a suggestion because in 15 years of reading yaoi, the first long series I've read were all about angst, sort of non-consensual etc etc. So it's not an atipical setting the rape/non consesual thing, most like a very used cliche. Do and read whatever the fuck you want, maybe drop Tanaka stories? She already used rape in 3 of hers, so you might want to come at terms that she likes this kink and she's gonna keep using it.
Thank you! Well, as you've predicted, our comments DID affect some of those disrespectful people and as expected they've completely misinterpreted or misunderstood the purpose of my comment. A hate troll is already on the loose, disliking every comment that doesn't support rape. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ But I agree with you, especially with the increase of younger readers in the yaoi genre. But all's good if they are mature and know there difference between real life rape and fantasizing rape in a yaoi manga. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
Yes!!! Thank you! I mean it's ok if they like violence and rape in yaoi, it's just them disrespecting and being rude to other people opinions was totally not ok. Ogeretsu sensei is one of my most fave mangaka but just this work, I wasn't that much interested. I'm just reading this to see the relationship between Kashima & Toono. But in general, I'm neutral with rape, violence or gore. Well it is natural to feel disappointed and not understand them as all of us have different perspectives towards rape. Can't help what we can't help y'know. All's cool as long as people aren't being assholes. (=・ω・=)
Thank you for putting in words what I couldn't put! I'm in the same boat as you. It's totally ok not to like a certain work even if it's from your fave mangaka! And it's ok to still continue reading it even if you just want to know how it ends! Cheers to the mutual understanding! ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ (btw your url is on point hahaha)
Even after 8 chapters, I still think the mangaka should not have done this sequel. The ending was so rushed and I honestly could not feel any happiness from the couple after they reconciled. I'm really quite disappointed because I really like the prequel and thought I could see them being more lovey dovey in the sequel.
I agree the mangaka should have left the story at Kimi to parade, a sweet, beautiful and cute story. This sequel started off ok but was too sad and angsty for it to really fit the prequel. Well honestly it just destroyed the feels from the prequel, im a bit sad because of this and it was also rushed at the end.
Gen is honestly my favourite kind of seme. Not only is he sweet, caring and a romantist but he woos yoshi so patiently despite getting rejected and would never ever force yoshi to do something he doesn't like. And that he also loves yoshi so dearly that he is happy just being with him. He's the perfect man for yoshi. I'm just waiting for yoshi to overcome his fears with Gen & be a lovey dovey couple.
While this extra has help me in understanding why Ijuuin's infatuation and obsession for Misaki runs very deep, his selfishness and the method he used for wanting Misaki for his own couldn't make me sympathize with him. "Who got you first isn't important-" NO, if you love that person and if that person has someone ELSE he's already happy with NEVER EVER try to break apart a happy relationship. Karma will bite you back on your sorry ass one fine day. Aside from that, I'm honestly looking forward to Ijuuin & Yuu's story. It'll be interesting and I'm hoping to see Ijuuin helplessly and desperately falling in love with Yuu. (● ̄(エ) ̄●)
I, personally, disagree. I don't think it matters who got him first, but who gets him last. He may destroy those 2's relationship, but at the same time he may give him even more happiness.
Though in this case we all know that Misaki is going to end up with Usagi.
But the main point of my comment wasn't about 'who comes first' though. Considering Misaki's personality AND if Ijuuin successfully destroyed their relationship, do you honestly think Ijuuin will still be able to give Misaki more happiness? Will Misaki still be happy to be with someone who just destroyed his relationship with Usagi, not to mention a happy relationship at that? It would be different of course of Misaki was from an abusive relationship but this really isn't the case.
