shizuma is such an inCREDible guy!!!! i don't know that i've encountered a character so selfless, understanding and kind-hearted. we should all be so lucky to even DREAM of having a partner like him. i daresay he might be one of my favorite semes of all time. in fact, this author has amazingly gentle, sweet and good-natured semes (mito-san and rin included here). not to mention they're all potential beasts in bed (THE BEST KIND)!! man. i'm definitely gonna be re-reading this one over and over again...
this might be one of those cases where i enjoyed the spinoff manga as much (if not MORE) than the original! i love em both, actually, and most of this mangaka's other works. other great spinoffs that rocked my world? therapy game and bokura ga koi wo ushinau riyuu come to mind. there are quite a few really (some writers just have a talent for developing their side characters into full-blown, compelling main characters)! <3
love this author more and more. outstanding art, outstanding storytelling. i can't get enough of reading about guys who are hopelessly in love with each other. it's also unbearably satisfying to see the "cool guy" LOSE his cool & show his jealousy and desperation. YES!! *punches air* plus, yoshino is TOO, TOO adorable. gosh.
that was the first heavy chapter. i feel...heavy. gosh i want this all to boil over. people talk. who cares? guys are douches. who cares? *bites nails*
god i HATE that in so much bl and yaoi there is pedophilia and rape. I HATE IT. i don't read shojo (only shonen), so i don't know if the ratio is just as high in that genre. it's so sickening, and i'm tired of it. wish i could love this story (the art is fantastic, and the boys have such potential), but the disgusting pedo trend always ruins things for me. u_u
it would be very rare to come by any rape or pedophilia in shoujo. it’s always high school girls crushing on their classmates.
There used to be hella shoujo manga with big age gaps tho...especially in older magical girl anime/manga. The “cool and mysterious “ guy would be in his 20s and the female Mc in fucking middle school .
Plus the coercion and the over possessiveness in shojo in general ._.
oh. yeah...that's creepy af
Yyeeeeppp... I remember being really fucking weirded out by uh... Cardcaptor Sakura? Where her friend got a promise ring from the teacher.
Like weird and gross guys.
Yeah, I prefer stories like this where pedophilia is shown as it is - disgusting and horrible. As opposed to romantic stories but are actually pedophilia (this relates to all genre, whether bl or straight)
nurse zhen zhen: wow, xiaodao's boyfriend level is max!
me: YEAH it is. *hearteyes*
ehem. now lemme at that nasty ass dad. the girl has a skinned knee. calm your balls, jerkface! >:(
this mangaka just makes me cry. but i can't get enough!! i wish i could read more of her works!! >_< guh!
i was preparing for this chapter, hoping with all my might. *sigh* still wound up crying. XD oh pinky, you are like a ray of light. don't ever change. god please let them be happy...
