I S C RE AMED @#&$P@#*${@# GOSHHHH THE LAST PART KILLED ME.

Why complain this much if you get the ''food'' for free? The pace isn't that horrible and the author updates Here U Are every 7 days without asking for money. And, I believe we can all agree, it is high quality art. Some panels are indeed quite detailed but that's what makes the whole beautiful atmosphere of this comic. As somebody said below, there are some manga (that isn't free) that updates maybe 5 times a year and there is still no development between the main characters. This pace is exactly suited for the mentality of the two main characters so I'm really not surprised. The pace is careful, steady and mature.

And yes, it is from China so I think the author is extra careful with showing interactions between same sex relationships.

DJun deserves more respect. It's very hard to be an author and you certainly cannot please everybody.

when you say, "every story has it's flaws" what are you referring to? The pacing? What qualifies you to affirm that is flaw? Because actually I like the pacing of the story. Sure, I would love to see them acting all cute and lovely but I think I wouldn't buy it, it wouldn't fit with the characters' personalities and development, I think this is a very realistic pace and I enjoy it.

And as many people pointed out already, it's not like you cannot say what you like and dislike but you should do it in a "feedback style" not complaining, we have NO right to complain about something we are getting for free, and if people really can't stand the slow burn they can simply stop reading it and find something suiting their taste.

I am always amazed at how rude people can get online, like, people wouldn't say half of the things they say on the internet to the person in real life so if you wouldn't do it irl then don't do it here.

If your criticism is constructive, great, if you are just whining and complaining then keep it to yourself because it is really disrespectful, put yourself in the shoes of the author and try to think how you would feel if you had people complaining every single week no matter what you do.

Why does critiquing a piece of art have anything to do with whether it is free or not? I don't see the relevance. I do appreciate the fact that I can read the story for free. But if you compare Here U Are with DJun's Guang Xiang, you can see that the pacing in Here U Are is much slower.

If you think the pacing is good, that's cool~ I myself think it is too slow, as do many other readers. What I dislike is being thought-policed and censored just bc I am not an author, or because I am reading it for free.

The story is from China and so the author has to be extra careful with showing interactions between same-sex couples -- true, but I'm not asking for steam sex scenes or anything. I'm just asking for them to be together, which has little to do with censorship.

DJun deserves respect -- I agree, which is why I leave comments on their Twitter thanking them for their work a lot. The fact that it is free makes me leave my complaints on third-party sites like mangago because I don't want DJun to feel bad, although I figure complaining to DJun "Ahhh please make them together already" hardly counts as being mean.

Yes I was referring to the pacing, as do many others here feel. What qualifies me to affirm that is flaw? Nothing. Do I need to be qualified? No -- that sounds like appeal to authority to me. Critiques are subjective, and if you think the pacing is great, that's fine by me. Rather than being displeased with the fact that they are still not together, I think some of the chapters have very little content and can be easily compressed.

The story is free and readers shouldn't be rude to the author -- true, but readers should have a little bit more leeway since this is a third-party website and not DJun's twitter or weibo. Now I think some of the comments below are indeed rude, things like "DJun annoys the shit out of me etc." but it seems that criticisms in general are not welcome anymore because readers cannot write a better story or because readers are reading for free, which I believe borderlines thought-policing.

Well, you did compare it to a meal in a restaurant and you'd have to be a fool to complain about free food, haha. Here U Are can be easily compared to a restaurant dish of an excellent quality. And being an artist that does this for an audiance free of charge is a great deal. Can't remember any other artist which also practices this on a weekly basis. Can't even imagine who else would like it, too.

Everybody has different opinions, that's why we can discuss it here.

There was a Valentine's day special last year and Spring festival special this year where we can see the couple together 2 years after the main plotline. I guess that's DJun's response now and then for the impatient fans. I want them together as quickly as possible too, don't get me wrong. I think every person reading this comic wants it as well. But it's unrealistic to demand it immediately as the characters should sort some things out beforehand. It's pretty realistic. We all know that they will end up together. DJun said it's gonna be in a couple months (in storyline). Currently is November 2016. and they are officialy together in early 2017.

Saying ''Ahhhh please make them together already'' is not mean. But it is impatient and disrespectful. Patience is a virtue and this is worth waiting. At least in my opinion.

Agree!
And what proves this manga's high quality (at least to me) is that people keep on coming back every week to see what happens, even the ones complaining about the slow burn.

It's easy for a slow paced story to get boring and if the plot is bad or boring people would just drop it. I get that it might be too slow for some people, specially given the fact that generally in BL relationships develop incredibly fast, but I do not believe this pace to be bad at all, it mimics real life and how relationships go through different moments and stuff since the very beginning.

It is so easy to complain on mangago, it is harder tho to draw a new chapter every single week for free, keeping up with the stunningly beautiful art on every chapter.

You can call it what you want but to me, complaining in these cases is just pure rudeness and lack of empathy.

"Everybody has different opinions, that's why we can discuss it here."
-- wholly agree to this. That's the basis of my argument from the start -- that people should be free to voice their opinion, negative or positive, as long as they do not throw insults at the author. Most of the complaints here are quite mild. They mostly center on how the pace is dragged out, making the story tiring. What I dislike, again, is people not being allowed to criticize because they are not the author. That's thought-policing and an ad-hominem fallacy.

"Well, you did compare it to a meal in a restaurant and you'd have to be a fool to complain about free food, haha. " I did not compare Here U Are to a meal in a restaurant -- I compare the practice of not allowing a reader to criticize a piece of art because he/she is not an artist to a diner at a restaurant. Two things are completely different. But yes, Here U Are is of great quality. Great, but imperfect.

I don't mind slow-burn if it's done right, but as I said before, DJun wasted many panels on irrelevant stuff that some of the chapters have almost no content. Additionally, misunderstanding/non-communication as a device for the story to progress was already used in the past, so it makes this new development frustrating for many readers, myself included.

In short, people should just be free to say whatever they want here, as long as they are not throwing epithets around at DJun. Saying "I think the story is dragged out" does not imply the reader does not enjoy the work and does not respect DJun.

This is prolly my last response to this topic. I did not mean to start a fight, so if I come off as aggressive, my apologies.
