i love the manner in which the story is conveyed here, it's very atypical and feels somewhat poetic
i reckon the reason behind the low rating is the artstyle .-. which is a shame since the art contributes to the rawness of the characters and story so well
now that Seraphic Deviltry has picked this up i'm hoping that we will finally get the full volume translation
bro this gives me Under Grand Hotel whiplash yet somehow it's literally MILES better than Under Grand Hotel and that's saying a lot cause this webtoon ain't even good
Lmaooo I actually liked that one. Don't ask me why bc I honestly have no idea myself. I don't even wanna know why I have no idea. I'm ignorant about my own ignorance.
self awareness is key! maybe it's pure nostalgia for the old bygone days of yaoi? lmao jk
though i feel like the idea behind UGH wasn't so bad, for me it was more the manner of the execution and pacing but that's a common issue with old school manga
I agree! I'm wondering if the pacing for this will be the same for this one bc like we agree it is clearly the twin of UGH. But.....then again, our MC in this was r*ped in the second chapter (Was it? Or maybe it was the third chapter)
I don't think so, at least not so far and from what I saw in the raws
UGH pacing was hell of a rollercoaster lol the mc got r*ped with a broomstick and shoved in a washing machine in the first pages of chap 1 then they proceed to declare their love to each other while j*rking off in the prison showers, all that in chapter 1 is wild lmfao and ofc 0 mention of trauma response...
i don't get the point of suddenly adding smut to this scene... they were finally conversing about the past ._. you'd think after hearing all that and being angry that he was kept in the dark, sejoon would demand proper explanations from taeheon but nah author was like time to fuk ig
kinda ruined the whole reveal for me, just so unnecessary and ridiculous! no one would be in the mood for doing "it" after being told all that, seriously dumb
mc's hair!?!? i get what the author was going for but it looks like he's wearing a toupee on top of his real hair lmao
the art is nice but the bird's nest on his head is irking me sm ong
Now i can't unsee it
im sorry but! if I had to see it then everyone else has to as well
OMGG same I thought I was going crazy I had to look twice to make sure it was not a mistake
i feel like it would look better if the black part of his hair was also curly. but the curly light haired part sitting on top of the black straight hair def looks like a nest, like you said
maybe yeah it could have made more sense if the hair texture of both parts was the same. although, ngl it was bothering me so much i tried to find a real life representation of this hair style and i can say with confidence that it looks like a bird's nest irl as well
Why did you had to point that out.? I read again to see and now I can't unsee it
"anal affairs" "masturbation situation"??? his lingo has me on the floor lmfao what even
this the boy who coined "erogenous zone development club" i'm not surprised
tureee he do be one of them "everybody so creative" type of people lmao
the 9.3 rating on this guess people's standards were absurdly low in 2020 huh
Your standar is the best, other people standards not great as you. What people like is so low. So what your best reading standard stuff ?
honestly im not really a fan of how the conversation between them two went down in this chapter
after mostly skipping through several chapters of violent rape and contemplating dropping the series, i expected a better conclusion to the situation to make up for the bad taste the assault left me with
idk i just feel like the author used the rape plot as premise to make them quickly patch things up and make them "stay together" - which is a real shame because imo it took away a lot from their relationship dynamic
s2 has been really ugh ngl i really hope it picks up from here
Yeah the author could taken a better approach. They trying to point the effects of the drugs basically so that no one irl would mess up i guess? Anyways those who want to do drugs will do them anyways x.x
Agreed
i found chap 1 raw -> https://comic.pixiv.net/works/9462
it's the whole chapter but pixiv will reduce it to a preview after some time so read while you can :D
That's usually when the physical copies get release, tho in batches, and those batches of chapters then becomes just preview or become unavaliable. It unfortunate when the online reading publication runs it course, it becomes hard to find them unless you buy the vol.
*when it gets a physical/digital release in the form of volumes, you got to pay for those* so I guess keep up with each new raw chapter release while theyre free for a limited time.
yep yep that's true but hopefully we get the eng translation soon though
this is already uploaded under the original Given title as it is just an extra
Animenewsnetwork said it's a new serialization, so its a sequel series
i see that as well on bakaupdates
well regardless it is still a reupload and since there is no uploader name it was done by the bots. plus this exact chapter was already uploaded on march 10 in the Given manga page
I think it's the continuation of the main series, just with timeskip (even tho it seems more like sequel)
But there's already preorder for physical copy of it in English, it's labelled like Given vol. 9 by Sublime snd scheduled to be released on August 23th
Volume 9 is the last volume of the original series that ended last year. You need at least 5 chapters of the NEW serialization before we'll get a new volume. At this time the new chapters are being released every 2 months in the Japanese magazine Cheri+.
Old story was a vol 8. It ended there, I have them all. In Blackwell's bookstore it's labelled as vol 9 and is in preorder. That's why I said volume. I know you need more than one chapter to have it, so I don't know what will be in there or if Sublime (publisher for English version) and bookstores 'named' it wrongly. Anyway I'll see what us is once I receive it
