4 stars, I loved this story! Love how he not only got a love story himself but actually got one with a plot and development as its own story compared to just being an extra. It wasn’t rushed, their relationship developed and also wasnt built on sexual stuff. cause for stories where the couple is onesided at first and the other person is loving someone else it's kinda a dealbreaker for me when i get the feeling the newbuilt couple is just a substitution. and that def was not the case here.
their relationship formed and developed, we got some personalities and depths to the characters and their stories. ruka was a bit much but in this story i didnt mind it that much. i think they would have made a great switching couple!
also i'm hoping for a story for the two bosses bc there was some vibe between them and when rukas boss talked about how it pisses him off when ppl don’t acknowledge their feelings it was like he was talking about someone else as well

Seeing the other comments I’m probably one of the very few that didn’t like them ending up together again. I hated the black haired author dude. He’s selfish, he’s manipulative, he’s a douchebag. Like I wanted some self-explanation, some kind of understanding in what ways he was terrible as a boyfriend. Now it’s like the other one just lowered his standards for that dude. It’s little things he didn’t even do. They had chemistry and they liked each other genuinely but I think sometimes that’s not enough. And i think in this case as it was, it was not enough! Because yes author dude tried but he didn’t do the most important things, reflect and change the very doable things that had led to this relationship turning one sided. Instead of apologizing instead of making up and showing how he changed those things. he just tried to avert the problems, ignore them and distract with other actions.

    yeah you are one of the many few because if u didnt read clearly, the black haired author dude u called is not perfect and he isnt damaging the other guy in a bad way ofc they have problems but they work it out they are like soulmates. not everything u do can be covered by trauma but the black haired author dude didnt have a good example of what a healthy love should be and he reflected and tried his best and ofc his soulmate understood they understand eachother and i dont think them going on with different people would make them happy couldnt you see the chemisty?? idc im not gonna be the bigger person but he is definetly not manipulative or a douchebag on purpose but if u look at some other characters like the jinx ml ud think otherwise about calling him so and so. if you recommended any books id probably hate them.

    Haha was I aggressive, was I excessive or unreasonable? No. So it’s not like we had an argument or anything for you to even think about being the bigger person or whatever. If you disagree with me, it’s completely fine. No need to get offended.
    It’s just that I didn’t see it. I didn’t walk out of the manga thinking that this would be a couple that lasts in the long run.
    I didn’t like him. The black haired author dude but damn why would I ever compare him to some abusive monster like the boxer dude from Jinx? The fuck. I don’t read this garbage and the fact that all those psycho stories exist bc of killing stalking and painters of the night and the trend they started, makes me sick. So damn now that was an insult to insinuate that I'd like this shit or that I’d compare some full on creepo to someone that is not boyfriend material imo. Two different things damn.
    Also honestly I don’t even think that you’d dislike the mangas that I do like

    You've probably never been in a long term relationship. For me this wa pretty realistic even though kinda the same thing happened to me i didn't come back with my former lover. But this story managed to have this sour ending thta mskes you feel fluffy and sad haha. You should re read it. It's not that bad

    I'll agree with you. If you really love the person, you'll make an effort to change, but all I see is him whining to him, he can't sleep without him. Well he said he just realized what he had done and he's sorry for that. And then? If he wouldn't change then this will happen again.

    Its actually tiring to have this relationship when you're the only who do all the works.

I was like damn what a nice cover art, clicking on the title and whilst the new side loads my eyes catch the mangakas name and I knew it was a mistake… this mangaka is really not just inspired by ogawa chises art style but also the whole vibe and genre. Or it is a pseudonym in which case it’s bad and toxic even for ogawa chises standards. Yikers, wasted time don’t read.
Also the semes reasoning… no wonder your boyfriend doesn’t want to sleep with you.
Like I saw some ppl talk about how the uke probably is asexual. I don’t think that’s it. Like he probably doesn’t like to sleep with his boyfriend bc said dude wants to treat him like a woman, but then also cheats on him with women and he in turn is then reminded of that.

    mz.hyde July 11, 2023 7:03 am

    exactly! all the time was like "oh u just like a woman" when he was fully aware that it was hurting maki's feelings, like, wtaf? it's not like it's a good story to begging with, so why are this characters so insufferable?

diddl July 10, 2023 2:49 pm

4.5
I really liked this one. It was bittersweet but so wholesome as well. I loved the parents being supportive of each other even after divorce, him being kind to her, her being supportive of his sexuality and even after the big lie he told her. Them being supportive of their son! It was such a cute ending too.
The only thing I’d have loved to see is that the dad at least got have teasered a new or old love.
However I would have loved to also see that he wasn’t just rejected bc the editor was straight or didn’t like him like that but also because the son was still a Teen (so it’s good that it didn’t work and he wasn’t interested in him like that!)

    Sac of ramen noodles July 10, 2023 4:31 pm

    Yeah I actually really liked that he was rejected because it really was that he was a child cause I love that the dad acknowledged that and when he was talking to the guy he was like even if you do have feelings for him keep it PLATONIC. Like amen I love a story with some sense ლ(´ڡ`ლ)

The only way this should be allowed to end is with MD getting his Happy End away from this abusive trash. Be it alone or with someone that actually treasures him. (Copium is high right now).
That dude was irredeemable by the end of the first chapter. Like how is this supposed to go?! You can’t redeem this shit. Not even if you really write the redemption arc well (and that already won’t be the case considering how well it must be to even begin to “justify” or change this character authentically let alone actually make one root for him to get MD at the end after all he has done) it is not something that should and can be redeemed in this relationship.
I’m so sick and tired of what disturbing trend ks and painters of the night have started in the bl area. No one of y’all that like this would read that shit if it would be hetero (validly so) but somehow here some of y’all are eating bs like this up bc hot guys. And it’s like ppl eat up any apology. Like bro I know that this seme probably was abused himself as well. Like I’m going into the story thinking that, so how is it that when his character arc will drop suddenly ppl will have empathy as if that is the first time they thought that this dude could have had a rough maybe even traumatic childhood?? I’m reminded of this crazy omega in love is an illusion where ppl were so quick to forgive that dude for what he has done. Lol.
Or the weirdos that actually read half of the painters of the night story and then actually were on board when the “couple” suddenly turned all lovey dovey (from what I’ve heard). Like that dude has done everything a human can do to make another human suffer to the uke and then it’s like he changed, he regrets, mutual love. ….. the only way you can do “crazy relationships” is when both are crazy from the beginning, there is a power balance (no dependence, stockholm and etc. bs) and their relationship is consensual. Like that one shot with the two hitmen. They were crazy but kinda cute with each other. Anyways..
Ok I’m out, just wanted to dump my mini rant that could be so much longer, but I don’t want to get angry.

    Literally just came here bc I saw comments are on again, and this is one shit of a story. So all the possible “but here you are reading it”, I’m not.
    Just dumping my rage about this utter disappointment of a story that is just another of the huge steaming pile of garbage that has come from this whole bl trend that has been rising the last few years with utterly toxic and abusive, non con stories being written and glamorizing this shit and ppl having the bar in hell bc apparently “yaoi is just porn so like who cares”.

This is very easily one of the best bl’s that exist. It is so freaking well done. The plot is interesting (I mean first of all it has one lol), the characters are compelling and you want to get to know everyone. Taeman and Dahyuk are so freaking cute together, also individually interesting characters.
I’m really always looking forward to the chapters each week, reading them on Lezh. as much as I can (we all should!!).
The comedy in this one is also so good and entertaining.
Really looking forward to see how this is going to go in terms of dahyuk finding out about taeman bc I think that will be this stories main problem to solve. This could essentially make or break the story imo.
I kinda wait for something to be revealed about dahyuk (thinking of the bathroom scene, even though it’s probably just him being a normal human being with emotions and obviously also being able to feel angry but still, also his knack and him being drawn to dangerous and reckless things).
I’m looking forward to the mom. Hope she’s still alive and on some other mission right now. I’m also curious about the senior of dahyuk and I hope she’ll make an appearance later considering how she seemed like an important person when he had this dream about high school and also considering how it was kinda dropped on the sidelines that she was his first love and it ended bc she had to move abroad. So I really hope this wasn’t it and they just made her character be done by just making a mini panel of dahyuk in chibi form being heartbroken with the three break ups that he had. Who knows maybe she’s also part of the business.
Regardless this story is a 5/5 so far (and I’m not giving 4 or 5 stars easily like some of the ppl here on this side with throwing 5 stars at everything that has good art and a sex scene no matter whether the plot is good, the smut is consensual or the story has anything that goes for it even if it’s “just” smut without plot).

diddl July 10, 2023 12:25 am

This has to be the best story of brothers without tommorow yet! (Funny considering how they are simultaneously also writing their worst story at the moment).
I love them both so much, and considering how much I dislike omegaverse as a genre I’m so happy that this is a good one!!
At the beginning of the story I was like pls give me a switch couple (still kinda hoping for it bc let’s be honest there are too many stories that actually should be with reversible couples without it being part of the plot and them arguing about it before one has to be the uke for the rest of the story, but then aren’t seke couples).
I really like both serams and Theos communication, their interactions, everything is consensual, the smut scenes 10/10 the spirit are hella cute and the plot seems interesting.
I like atali, Theos mom as well and I’m excited for her story and past with serams mom.
Also hope the doctor and the first knight get together ;)

I need them to assemble NOW! Those three need to help mo, he’s really having a tough time right now and he needs his friends more than ever, so don’t they dare letting him go just like that. And no it’s not enough for he tian to do smth. this is about friendship so the whole group needs to support!

diddl July 10, 2021 4:17 pm

Yo the least the other three could do, is assemble and be a support for mo. Like I don’t even want to imagine how miserable he is right now. The stress from all these different places and expectations all have and he has for himself. I really hope the others realize what’s happening and help him not just by distracting him but by actually helping him with at least some burden he has. School wise for example, make a study group or offer helping him at home idk. I just want them to address this situation seriously
