I think if this was expanded upon and given more time and thought, it'd have been an insanely good story. I could totally see this being played out and the ML having these insane ways to get the MC to be with him, but the MC wouldn't be stupid enough to not realize what he's getting up to and still loves him for it.
It felt very empty, it repeated that the ML was so sickly so many times and I was like "I get it already!" BUT I'm not saying it was bad, I really enjoyed how the MC isn't some dumbass and has a keen intuition, it definitely feels like it's someone's first serious project and they just wanted to get it out there and have fun with it.
This is actually so beautiful, both in art and story. The MC is so overwhelmingly lonely, being a busy full-time worker on top of being a gay man pressured to marry in a notoriously homophobic society (let alone world) would make anyone depressed. In order to fill some sort of void, he goes into this random flower shop that just so happened to be there at the right day at the right time and he made one the biggest impulse buys of his lifetime.
I truly believe that this plant was meant to go into his hands. Is there a lot of sex and is it a big part of the plot? Yeah... But I don't consider it the main point. The main point is that our MC is tired of life, exhausted of being harassed to marry and being unable to tell people he can't because he's gay. Everyone around him is flaunting how happy they are, telling him to get married, all the while he's lonely and tired of his mundane life. The plant came at a time when he was at an all time low after one of his last single friends got married, a crucial time that practically saved the MC a lot of heart ache.
I cried with the MC when the second flower crumbled, but I believe that the flower is evolving. Maybe soon it'll flower into a full fledged human. I think this is supposed to represent "fate" and "with enough perseverance and patience you too can become happy"... At least I hope, as a bittersweet ending would be so cruel. I truly hope that the MC can find happiness, whether that's with the plant or with someone who will love and cherish him.
Ughhhhhhh man I wish this was longer. I mean why do some shit comics run for so long while something like this is so short?!
I am going to KRILL myself, this is so cute. I've read this 10 times, it def needs a sequel with the side couple being the focus and the main couple showing how they've come out and their life together after college.
if you're someone whose read BL for a long time, you'll be familiar with fucked up plot lines (aka trauma porn). Some are easier to handle than others, but for some reason this one is difficult to read. There are plots that are similar to this that people have COMPLETELY different reactions to, I think what it comes down to is how the storytelling is.
I consider myself a hardcore reader, both BL and otherwise.... But this was hard to even want to read. I'm sure this'll be up someone's alley, but I've gotten tired of plots like this. I get it, the author wanted to draw fucked up porn. I think between the fucked up title and the way it's written it just doesn't sit right with me. I hope whoever sticks to the end or who typically enjoys these type of plot enjoys it.
I'm the same. But I think I have a hard time w/ gang-bangs in general. But this story makes you feel REALLY REALLY helpless in reading it. So....
This comic really captures how the core of someone stays the same, whether in a past life or present. Once a self centered sadistic demonic-like bastard, always one.
I mean come on, the MC is obviously gay if he said he had past bf's. That means he was gay in the past life too, if he was EVER treated with any dignity or true kindness he'd love the ML as well. The back and forth wishy washy kindness that the ML shows the MC is disgusting. The obsession and possessiveness is at a level that he doesn't care about the MC's feelings or if the MC wants to kill himself, he just cares if he can get his rocks off or keep him shackled to him. What a shame, such a shame that the MC ended up cursed with this bitch's obsession. If only he ended up with that friend of his who loved him in the past life as well.
Honestly, that'd be the best ending, being with that friend would be the cutest thing. UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'd cry
Honestly I am very satisfied with the end. I used to hate when my favorite stories ended, and while I do hope there are side stories just for some cute little day-to-day things or even steamy things I found that when a story is forced to stretch or keep going forever it can lose it's brilliance and charm. Some stories are the exception to this, especially since there are some people who know the right way of stretching a story or the concept is perfect for a longer series, but most do just fine without being overly stretched.
This definitely has to be one of my favorite series, and I'll 100% be reread it again numerous times! It'll be fun imagining what kind of future they'll have, the love they have for one another is so pure and beautiful that I'm sure no matter what happens they'll be happy as long as they have each other.
NO YOU SEALED YOUR FATE DON'T YOU SEE THAT LOOK ON HIS FACE, NOOOO Kay reaaaaaaaaaaaally cannot read people's intentions for the life of him unless it comes to murder intent.
I hope he goes ape shit and shows this allies how fearsome he can be and how lucky they're on his side!
Remember everyone, vasectomies are reversable!!!
Not all the time. In fact, vasectomies are supposed to be seen as a permanent procedure because no one can guarantee if it’s reversible. The longer you’ve had a vasectomy the less likely you will have a successful reversal. Since it’s a popular belief that it’s reversible whenever I think the manwha will go based off it being completely reversible but in real life it’s important to know after some years (within a decade for some) it may actually start to affect those who get the procedure’s fertility permanently
Vasectomies are considered permanent, as in permanent birth control. Just like anything, nothing is 100%. It is considered successful 60-95% of the time, and while it's not reliable it IS a good chance. It is ALSO possible to STILL carry sperm even after a vasectomy, and unless someone has a hysterectomy there is no 100% fool proof way to prevent kids. Even those who are considered medically sterile can still have children. It really depends on the person, and like you said most people who get it and have it for long periods of times show less chances of a successful reversal. But in the case of younger people who've had it and have only had it for a hand full of years it's probably easily reversed. It also depends on your doctor and if their surgery skills are elegant enough to pull off the reversal.
I said permanent because most medical professionals do not recommend a vasectomy if you plan to have kids in the future. I’m not here to argue because we’re on the same page I just don’t like the blanket statement that they are reversible. Because yes, reversible just means that they were able to reattach everything and sperm returned, that is indeed 60-90%. It doesn’t mean that sperm is viable and there isn’t much research on the chance of you getting someone pregnant. It’s like 30-90% chance within 5-8 years of having a vasectomy so that’s too wide of a margin to be confident. Again, most doctors do not recommend this to those who plan to have children. My comment had nothing to do with whether or not he’s sterile or the chances his sperm will be viable. Again, this is a fluffy sex manwha I don’t think they’ll touch heavily on this. It was more of a reminder that it’s not always like that in real life even though most people, not necessarily you, think it is. For example, a ton of ppl think they can’t get pregnant if someone wears a condom when condoms are just 85% effective and less when it comes to transferring STIs/STDs. Condoms are great and should be used but i personally think it’s dangerous to make blanket terms about such things. The difference between “vasectomies are reversible” and “vasectomies can be reversed” if that makes sense. Not to say you’re wrong, I just would have phrased it slightly different.
Minor note, this isn’t an “um actually” or anything I just think this is something you would find interesting. People can get pregnant after a hysterectomy, an ectopic pregnancy which is rare and pretty dangerous. Funnily enough I think all male omega pregnancies are ectopic but that’s whatever.
