This is probably going to sound like an odd question but I'm seriously curious, how do other bl readers (or readers in general) handle rage when a plotline goes bad or a character is frustrating, etc? I find more and more frequently I have no patience for when a manga starts out good but then a stupid miscommunication happens or the seme does something assholey or they introduce a completely unnecessary rapey second lead. Or even if a manga just starts off bad in the first place - the absolute worst is when a character who is just a bad person is written in a way that you can tell the author is trying to make you feel sympathetic toward them. Like he just raped the uke dawg I'm not about to cry that the uke doesn't like him back this is crazy. That kind of thing. I get so frustrated I'll cry deadass and I was wondering if anyone else is in the same boat or if I'm just sensitive to that kind of thing? How do other ppl handle it?

    I just lose interest and feel detached from the story. If the messiness drags on I stop reading it mostly bc I don't have the motivation to keep playing attention. If it's for a few chapters I just rant on the comments and read something sweeter after

    Haha that's definitely the right thing to do. Idk why but I always feel like I have to finish it if I started it. I guess I'll make an effort to detach and not get so invested so I can drop bad ones

    The real answer is the make up fanfiction in your head that completely fixes all your holdups with a manga haha

    I either just drop the story or rage quit if it was really infuriating. I'll forget about it eventually

Okay hear me out, I've definitely read a couple comedy bls where either the uke can read minds or the seme is just really vocal about it but there have been such funny stories where every serious scene ends up broken up by the seme having steamy fantasies about the uke and is always coming on to him can someone please rec me bl like that??

I was so sick of seeing that same "I always hated bl" top question every time I scrolled down

Asked this a while back, but got no response, so asking again:

Does anyone remember that one straight romance isekai where the female mc (short, dark blue bob) gets reincarnated as an otome game character (but not the main girl) and tries not to get in the way but then is confessed to by one of the harem boys who isn't supposed to like her? I'm pretty sure it's a Lezhin comic too

BL, GL, hetero, whatever's fine, but a really plot heavy romance (not modern world) is what I'm looking for! Bonus points if the ml is royalty and falls fucking crazy in love with mc, thanks in advance!

SomethingStupid June 17, 2021 8:04 am

A bl where the uke is the first to show the seme true compassion so the seme falls hard

SomethingStupid June 17, 2021 7:11 am

A bl where the main couple loves each other to pieces despite plot I am starving for the good sauce (preferably something not modern world but I'm really not picky rn just vvvv lonely and need to live vicariously through an mc so I can be in denial about my own life for at least the duration of a manga thank you)

A Romeo and Juliet type of love story with a happy ending. Where their love is all consuming and almost tears them apart but they end up with each other in the end (preferably lots of plot). Thanks in advance : )
