Thanks for the spoilers! I won’t have to waste my time on this. :D Keith confused the eff out of me, he tells the uke to just get himself r-ed and then acts nice to him the next (because uke quit).
I did not like how the uke is such a simp to him. Like you’re too good for the guy uke. And there’s no point in trying to force yourself into the life of someone who doesnt want you.
I enjoyed it especially the alien BL. I dont get why people don’t like the alien BL it is adorbs and at least the development of the characters’ relationship is pretty cute. I did not like how the relationship in the first couple developed. Loki is strong, but... I dont like how he just ended up being smitted by the guy .
I really do not like my psychological BL with romance mixed in it unless its done well like Inheritance of aroma . I kept on rolling my eyes while reading this. In these types of stories, the uke is really too good for the semes that’s why I can’t appreciate it. Well tbf there is nothing to appreciate in a toxic relationship. If the author wanted things to be well, there are other ways to make them be together without including questionable stuff. In this story, even until the end, the seme never truly cared abt the uke’s feelings.
In stories like this the cure is always fucking the uke hard in order for him to turn around and be held captive. But then in this story’s case there was an attempt for it to be perceived as fluffy. Wholesome even Which I didn’t like.
This story could be great if tackled well. Dang. Too bad there’s a fandom for ahole semes like the younger brother.
Totally agree. That's why ppl who comment they've seen worse like harada don't even make sense, harada makes it a point to not romanticize toxic relationships, they're nuanced but not depicted as all-is-okay relationships. Here, sex (rather rape) is just introduced as the all-in-one solution to fall in love which was gross
Yeah. Harada never romanticizes toxic relationships. They present it as something that is questionable and fucked up not something that is fluffy or even as some people have considered this story, wholesome.
The victim doesn’t know of course because the abuser in their stories are always psychos manipulating their partners to thinking they should stay with them but we, the readers know that their relationship is messed up and perceive it as it is. They dont present it with fluff they give us darkness and maybe disgust ... because Harada just really love fucked up characters and relationships and they present it with style too.
This is prolly my least fave couple as of now. I hope their relationship will be more than Rio being jealous of Keiichi and actually him caring for Asahina. He used to be so cute before now he’s just a spoiled brat. :’(
yeah thats why it was so satisying seeing him get whooped by kei lol
