What's the point of making such story, if not for unhealthy voyeurism and brain rot, honestly?
I'm asking this for those who camp here everyday to defend like hyenas this title and can't seem to find even one little wrong aspect to it.
There's hardly any real reason or value as to why a content like this should exist, aside the fact that it exists because it was created and mostly for porn consumers.
What at first appeared to be a revenge bl reveals to be another rape porn of the worst kind. It was written in a way that you can't sympathize with the characters or blame them totally for their wrongdoings once you realize that both are absolute trashes to each other, so what's left? The porn. This enables the readers to satisfy their voyeurism and mortiferous curiosity without feeling bad.
It seems bl authors are unable to write a decent revenge plot without turning it into a shit show of degrading obscenities with mindbreak. Thanks to the Korean readers who protested, if not there's chance you'd read beastiality too with this one. This poor Jiwook have no idea... And we all know that if not for the handsome characters, and mostly the art bringing it, you fans of such would be there wanting to wash your eyes clean and a refund for your wasted time - just like for Pocket n°7. Lol.
And before invoking Hannibal Lecter... Classic movies like Silence of the Lambs, Saw or series like Dexter have a moral dimension to them and a MESSAGE to convey while they can display the most gruesome scenes. There's injustice, crimes but also RETRIBUTIONS. Punishment. The criminals pay their crimes by losing their lives or being sentenced to prison. The spectators bear the movie till the end bc they know the outcome of such actions. This makes the movie, book... digestible and bearable.
In this case of Reverse Thinking, message is nonexistent. There's no retribution nor redemption, only harm. Any reader who was expecting something is left hopeless and drained. It feels like a mental assault.
Don't give the excuse that all this brutality and g/rape is fictional, therefore we should let it a pass for everything. Litterature and art, science, start with an idea and concept, but have the power to move societies and influence the world. We know that for some people, Star Wars has become a religion and philosophy. Some genius writers are deified... So words and imaginery can have huge impacts on people's mind and actions, for the best or the worse. However depending on the situation the aspect 'fiction' is either willingly omitted, or brought up as justification bc you porn consumers have no other reason as to why you can enjoy this type of thing.
I personally don't have issue reading controversial stories involving sa, rape or violence, simply bc yaoi is populated by these books. I, though, have issues regarding that kind of show and poorly written plots ; the absolute absence of retribution for the perpetrators.
About that last point, this story have a problem of consistency and rationality - should I say, just like other pornwas with Stockholm Syndrom (No Reason, the Bad Life...).
After ml rape and beat the shit out of mc, they always joke, kiss and laugh, do 'banters' as if that was normal human interactions. Though inconsistent, the authors need to include these little exchanges bc if not, it will fall into the category of horror, and not 'bl' :')
Last paragraph:
To be clear, I have dropped that title a while ago. This won't be the last of the sort and I'm afraid this is just the start of a florilège and mass production of these extrem, violent contents in Manhwas, for the bl genre. This is what is popular now, and this is what you want it seems. Titles like KS, Warehouse, An Easy Target... had contributed to the production of works like Reverse Thinking and other Corrosive and now these vulgar stories amplify that tendency. Many more authors will try their hands on this niche ; they want to work and get their bag and they know that it will garanty them exposure and money.
Stories like this just make me want to stay away from bl, tbh, specifically from manhwas. Aside some valuable titles lost amongst the growing mass, majority of bl manhwas are porn with same forgettable plots and ever growing p*nis. Tired.
Where's the romance, the forbidden love, the build-up, the mystery, where's the intrigue...?
Can someone tell me what happened to the setting like/dislike? I was absent for some times and when I'm back, it's nowhere to be found. Did Mangago change the setting or is this a bug...?
Hello,
I was absent for some times.
Can someone tell me what happened to the setting like/dislike, as it's not in the comment sections. Did Mangago changed the setting or is this a bug...?
See what happens when you, as an author, always want to draw bigger n bigger D (-_-)' it end up that no one pays attention anymore to the plot and only laugh at this disastrous anatomy you've drawn.
Really, didn't they work in team? Couldn't anyone have told author they should make some changes to these anatomies?
Friends, editor, collegues, hello...?
Any shonen ai rec that you like?
Also after the Fallen Duke and the Knight who hated him, I'd like to read something a bit similar... Any title?
So I had an argument with Jax (or whatever their name will be), that individual who's been guarding that comment section like if it belongs to them.
They've been messing with people who have a negative opinion on this story.
While they're losing the argument, they went to stalk my homepage to dig dirt on me, till they eventually found a 'controversive' title, Cry, or better yet, Beg, rated 5 by me. All in the intention of coming back at me and shame me for the Josei.
Not only that, they also 'distributed' dislikes to ALL of my topics, to retaliate.
This shows that Jax can't have a fair argument without resorting to coward means like that, although this behavior is being a loser.
The fact that I could rate 5 a work like this Josei proves that I generally can tolerated and have no problem with controversive contents. In the biginning I also rated 5 Reverse Thinking, till I couldn't stomach it anymore knowing where it's going. Some boundaries have been crossed, and crossed too far; the beastiality that author had intended to add in the plot was the red line for me.
The violence depicted in here is not motivated by desir of possession nor love, or revenge, but only to show morbid, deshumanizing porn in its most grotesque forms. What could that author add more to make this more gruesome? Scato, cannibalism...?
How could you expect for people to like such thing?
***
Mangago should change the settings to make the profil of readers private, allowing only friends and contacts to access their page. This could prevent stalking as well as cyberbullying.
Don't you guys feel like yaoi authors for the vast majority don't know how to draw girls, female body?
How come? Why? Can someone explained this to me?
This whole manhwa feels like a fever dream written by some psychotic author. It's bullying then abuse to rape to torture, and repeat... without real motives than bullying the poorest (mc) and wanting to g/rape him. Their mindless actions makes them look souless and desarticulated characters.
This feels demonic and uncanny.
Btw boarding school...? How old are they, they look like 30 yo men
Author name: Sera
In a jungle, the Uke got kidnapper by a tribe to be the bride of ml. Ml is a tall blond hair and tanned skin
I am looking for a FREE 3d background app or smthg for my manga any recommendations?
Tbh I very knew his first arguments for Dan to come back working for him were gonna be about money and paying back the debt Dan owes him ; he couldn't imagine the guy's gonna refuse that bait, but here...
Actually Dan's situation and mental state are A LOT worse than he could imagine: he'll need to show Dan that this latter needs him, and not for the reasons he believes. He'll need to grow some heart.
Go Dan, I'm with you
To think that Mathias would never do or dare to do such a thing to a girl who has parents and status is even more upsetting. Yes, he did this to her bc she's also an orphan, that shows the bastard that he is deep down, completely entitled to his status and thinking he has the right to do whatever he wants with a girl like her. Humanly speaking, this is disguting and so sad, injust. Everyone would be agree to shop off his D if he were ugly. After doing what he did to her, he just took his leave and speak about his horrible actions and Leila as nothing and meaningless, that's infuriating really... My poor Leila :'(
Iltak never learns. Hopefully he's so tiny that his bullying has no real effect on people.
The sis has good tastes, she can be my styliste. This series is surprisingly entertaining
It was good seeing them spending time as friends, eating and playing together, these joyful moments are so rare for our boy that they're precious for us too. But goshh... seeing him still suffering and drinking his sorrows away like that is heartbreaking: it seems he's falling even worse into desperation.
This time I hope Jjk will treat Dan a lot better and realize he needs him more than he thinks.
Why can't we ever avoid the weak Uke's falling into ml's hands, good grace or torment, in these stories...? Why...? Though considering the nature of personality of mc here, it'll be out of character to make him become independant and resulient, I think... So I'm glad that they find each other again if they're gonna be so self destructive and sad being apart.
Stories like this reminds how precious love and s*x with love is and should be treasured. They're so sweet and cute together
The art is inconsistant since the start. That position of mc lying in the coffin, fold like a mannequin... is really not natural. He looks so small now and pitiful. The proportions are off...
If not for the tasteless porn, rape and 3m long D, the plot has potential despite being desultory. Maybe now we'll get some real actions (and not that 'kind' of actions again). Mc is combative, it'll be interesting to see how he'll get away from this whole situation, and not simply depend on that mf for his survivance even though I guess it'll be pretty much all we get from this story.
I don't like the mafia trope it feels kinda cringe
