I’m not gonna comment on the red flags that have always been in this story that require heavy doses of suspension of disbelief, I just wanted to say smth i always found funny. That being, it’s teased somewhat carelessly whether the detective guy actually cares about his friend’s grooming a little boy or not, but what really gets me is the fact that iirc, they straight up “test him” to make sure he won’t report the fact that he’s getting statutorily raped by kousuke . Like if you’re gonna make an unethical fictional age gap romance, at least stop reminding ppl of the fact that you know it’s wrong??? Self-awareness is NOT the kind of look you wanna be going for when you do it so half-assedly (by trying to play it off and writing any personal sentiments into the characters as a stand in) and for the sake of (I assume) deflecting criticism. At least have the integrity and balls to be properly honest about what the story is or don’t mention it at all. Having a character expressly question the actions of the ML but not actually have him face the consequences and take accountability for it just means it’s a pointless plot point that just serves to add drama. It serves no narrative function (in terms of character development) other than make-up rape (i don’t really consider it sex tbh that man is like 30 ☠) and padding out chapters. Again, I don’t want to go into yapping anyone’s eyes out but I still think its so funny to ‘test’ a minor and be like “but you won’t tell anyone, right?”
Last little side note: The beginning 2 volumes were so wild… (so was the whole series but) Kousuke behavior is so crazy bc why is this grown ass man gatekeep girlboss GASLIGHTING a teenager into believing he’s in love with him like brother has NOTHING better to do. As I’ve gotten older, it’s become kind of a turn-off that a man that age is THAT emotionally immature, and don’t get me wrong, I like my men ***pathetic***

Anyways: certified loverboy certified pedophile

I would’ve liked for her to have a character arc where she and mc forgive grievances or for them to get retribution for her snake behavior. Alas, I am satisfied enough with them living happily ever after even though no side stories is so depressing

ke . like topic of Driver's High

Both are toxic as fuck. Man, Leo is such an idiot I don't believe he will truly change just for J.J.'s sake (he'll, in 5 years he didn't even think so until J.J. broke up with him) and J.J. is also toxic as hell.

Not only not communicating things but choosing the time when THE OTHER ONE IS NOT EVEN LISTENING. Like. Fucking when he's blatantly ignoring you and asking you to move from their line of vision just to keep playing. Of course it's the perfect time to talk about a job offer you've been considering. It was just normal Leo wouldn't know CUZ HE WASNT EVEN PAYING ATTENTION.

And also Leo, fucking disgusting eating chips in the sofa and leaving the crumbs and using outside shoes inside the house when you have a "No shoes inside the house" policy. Yeah, he's a narcissist and J.J. should get away from him. It's hard to get away from someone you've learned to love and care for, but them saying "Oh, I'll change for you" just seems like a red flag that they'll most likely won't change xd. Just leave before you get hurt more.

And for people telling that J.J. didn't rape Leo in that chapter 13 and 14. He did.

First of all, Leo wanted to do it in a hotel, but I.J. wanted to do it right then and there. Leo wasn't okay with it, but j.j. coerced Leo into agreeing threatening to back off from the agreement of being fuck buddies. That's not consent xD. Even if Leo and J.J. both agreed to being sex buddies, it's done with both consent on the location, times, using or not a condom, etc. Leo was coerced into it at that moment with J.J. threatening to undo the agreement, and even J.J. was purposefully rough on Leo, and didn't even stop nor slowed down despite Leo telling him to do so.
J.J didn't even loosen up Leo appropriately before putting his dick in, he could've hurt him and tear something up (ofc for the sake of the story that didn't happen but irl preparation is the most important part to not hurt your partner AND J.J. MISSED THAT)

EVEN LEO SAID IT HURT!!!

ARE WE GOING TO MISS THAT??????

I reiterate. Both are pieces of shit and toxic mf that should go to fucking therapy (Leo might not work out cuz narcissist people are hard to manage for therapy), they both have their share of fault for that shaky and awful relationship they had and not knowing how to fix it (mostly cuz it's not even fixable) but man, J.J. even had to force himself onto Leo aaaahhhhhh. That. Is. Rape.
Even within a fuck buddy relationship, rape can still happen. Rape can happen in marriage too. Rape is not bound only to people you're not even familiar with. It can happen from a friend, to your boyfriend/girlfriend, to your ex and your spouse.

I will forever be hater of J.J.
If J.J. no longer has a hater, it's cuz I'm dead.

Okay so i just finished ch 58 and found out like everyone else that its been on hiatus for 3 years and there is no available english translation of the novel its based on. So I guess this is goodbye, as I might as well just end it all here. Goodbye cruel world.

No way the sis sees “her” mans giving her own BROTHER the sloppy toppy gawk gawk hawk tuah 3000 head and she still insists on being with him. Like sis (lidally) atp your misery is self-imposed. “I thought I could change him” is like a crazy version of “I can fix him” and in most cases you CANT, especially when what you’re tryna fix is their sexuality

I take it back pen, it’s my fault. I should’ve known better. I’d probably leave my family for a man too. If it were him I could do it. I should’ve known better when I questioned your choice ngl.

ke . created a topic of Even If You Don't Love Me

Ah yes, the world clearly doesn’t have enough of people who are borderline psychotic. I love it when I see horrifyingly unempathetic characters do awful things. I love it when a paper thin personality mc whose only merit is to be attractive, written with an annoying amount of pride “wins” the love and affections (in this case, obsession) of main leads . But above all, I REALLY love a stupidly naive character who’s so innocent and trusting because all people are good and we should hold hands in a prayer circle and sing kumbaya. I haven’t read up to the grape scene(s) because…!!! — I don’t wanna. Ignoring the unnecessary violence and abuse (yay!!!) I didn’t hate some parts of the writing which is what makes it worse when you see smth that coulda been great, go so so bad (well, that’s more my opinion but). Like those self-reflective/introspective chapters from seung eon are great! I would argue that the ml is more developed as a character than the protagonist. Jiwook feels like a fetish scapegoat more than a protagonist and a victim of the intent of the plot. Realistically, you’d think that being impoverished so much and having to work your ass off to achieve or obtain opportunities would harden someone’s understanding of the world and of people, but I suppose not. Such a shame that he doesn’t have an ounce of the brain function that seung eon does! And I usually never side with tops like him (doesn’t excuse ANY of his behaviors)
Anyways, this isn’t a productive analysis of the story just a rant, sorry all who read this unfortunate word slop.

ke . created a topic of Lady to Queen

Idk i really tried to give this manhwa a fair shot. I read up til chapter 30 and I just can’t care. The antagonist is just… 2D. So is the ML. The FL is fine i guess.. this whole story is just so lukewarm. Unless I’m missing something I’m really confused on how this was on the first page of popularity for the shojo tag. This is no fault to the translators that did their best but, you can hardly read the story and whatever story is left is just so weak
If anyone has any other knowledge about it and disagrees you’re free to prove me wrong, after all, I only read 30 chapters.

It doesn’t matter the flaws leo has atp, it will never justify treating your partner (WHOM YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ANGRY AT BECAUSE YOU LOVE) like that. Because Leo may be emotionally immature, but not only is JJ a criminally inept communicator, his resentment is apparently enough to warrant him criminally assaulting the person he’s supposed to care about??? Okay go off hate sex but like at least treat the other person with basic human respect and decency??? You’re telling me this is supposed to be a relationship we root for when it’s obvious they’re wayyyyyyy better off separated??? Nah but fuck JJ. You can’t be all pissy over problems that the other person doesn’t know about? He fell in love with Leo the way he was, and he would’ve expected a certain level of negligence on Leo’s part to be conscious of how he (JJ) feels. That’s the whole point of communicating is to voice your problems and work together to solve them or…? Just break up? It’s not worth it if they don’t listen? But then not saying nothing and also still having feelings so you decide to reestablish a relationship with the same resentment you held from before is crazy work? Fuck this guy, JJ. Any JJ defenders are my ops.

Lidally one of them is unbelievably emotionally immature and the other is a resentful, poor communicator… yeah they deserve each other when they both toxic as hell

ke . asked question about your opinions

Look, most people above the age of maybe 17 (virtually everyone but minors themselves) can draw from their own experience of once being an insufferable teenager. It’s hard, I get it, of course. But some of these annoying children are just rude and obnoxious and have the understanding of a child (surprise) on subjects like moral ambiguity and dark......

ke . created a topic of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi

It’s the way I’m browsing the Mangago forum homepage and take a gander at “Yaoi Manga Top 5” to see Sekaiichi Hatsukoi as the first in the list. Okay, so I’m thinking, new chapter must’ve dropped that I forgot the contents of, or didn’t check. The way I’m reading this chapter unsuspecting of the events to come. Okay. So I’m gagged. Because it’s the way we got 12 years or something since publication for a confession finally to come after some arbitrary minor cannon fodder jealousy subplot is thrown in. Ladies and gentlemen and other unidentified members of the party, I am officially gagged. Like okay. Yeah. It’s concluded. The farce has ended, the war is over, the grass is green and the birds are singing but I’m here in utter bewilderment because excuse me? Anyways

Lusting after the person you’ve graped even after you’ve graped them is crazy work. Of all things, they could’ve at least made the guy feel sympathetic or even slightly remorseful
Instead he has a sexual fantasy about the person he graped soliciting him to presumably be graped again. It’s almost funny how bizarre that is idk.

Red candy had great pacing overall, and I really liked the balance of smut and plot.
Sihyun and Hajun have such a cute, passionate, and meaningful dynamic, and I LOVE the reunited sweethearts trope!!! The fact that they knew each other when they were smol lil kids! Their reunion and the rest of the plot is a bit contrived but who cares ^^
