I've always ALWAYS seen Yuuri as the seme and Viktor as the uke, so I'm so thankful for this dj. It's such a relief that at least I'm not the only one who saw Yuuri as more masculine and Viktor more feminine, the only problem was that they were a tad out of character.
In the first half of the anime, I saw strictly Viktor x Yuri due to body weight, age, height, status, & the fact that Yuri is a virgin while Viktor has dated before.
But by the end, I can kinda work with Yuri on top, with the angle that Yuri seems to be turned on constantly & is becoming more of a man & less of a boy as his confidence in himself builds, & Viktor is usually more compromising & suggestive on issues rather than being insistent, which is like being submissive. Rather than being the one to take action, he asks Yuri what he want's to do.
There's a lot of ways this manga could develop, but the main two I can currently think of (because they're more cliche) is:
1) Bum and Sangwoo will have a twisted romantic relationship
2) Bum and Sangwoo will somehow heal into a better mental state and grow into a more compassionate relationship
Seeing as the manga is creative, it'll probably turn out to be something else, or a unique variant of the two. But between the two, honestly I would hope for no.2.
The "twisted-romantic" relationship is (at least from what I've read) much more cliche. And the second choice would take us through more of a journey I think, and it'd be way more refreshing because something is changing - they start off messed up, but it slowly changes (Just like it did change a bit when Sangwoo started to become more loving towards Bum before Bum tried to escape of course) I think it'd be more refreshing to see a psychopath slowly regain wellbeing. But that's just my opinion, and I actually wouldn't mind a twisted romantic relationship either. I'm sure the manga would do well in both directions anyway.
The 2nd one almost happened tho, the 1st one is yet to be confirmed, either way the excitement is real ヾ(☆▽☆)
Or they'd both die in some freakish unromantic way, whatchu think? X'D
They still haven't explained the seme cheating. In fact, they seemed to put more emphasis of when the uke cheated, but kinda ignored the fact that the seme cheated first. I find it odd that the uke didn't ask for an explanation and that the seme didn't try to explain it. I hope in the next chapters they will remember about this and not ignore it..
It was explained. It was just lunch with a previous co-worker.
His arms are to his sides and she is the one touching him. I'm sure the uke jumped to conclusions. Its usually the case in these types of stories. The raws seem to point to that too.
Yes, it's a typical false lead situation bound to inflict confusion and pain. But I think Nicholas Hale has a point in asking why it's not resolved.
Then again, it is Yaoi and if everyone just talked with each other and explained everything properly, three quarters of almost every storyline wouldn't exist I guess

I completely understand this fetish! I love breasts/fluffy chests (I'm not too picky about what we call them) in bara or light bara. Somehow nipple play doesn't turn me on as much if the guy doesn't have a fluffy chest either. And I don't consider it a feminine thing at all to like having your nipples played with.
I love this. Love is usually imperfect, and not like some "fated love" type of thing which a lot of yaoi has. I'm not saying that's bad either, I love my share of those mangas. But main characters aren't supposed to be perfect, and they don't even have to be appealing. Where's the diversity if all main characters do the right thing and have great personalities?
But on another thought, it is the authors job to make characters that connect with the reader, which this manga hasn't done so much. So it's not the personality of the characters since characters don't have an obligation to be perfect or "good" but there's a lack of character to reader connection I think
