Hyung's manga / #abuse(12)

Its a good idea, but I feel like there's missing pages... kinda hard to fallow the story

5 ⭑ This is art. The story is so real and thought provoking. Our main character has an abusive father and the story follows how he handles the situation emotionally and psychologically, it also shows how the system can fail such children in these situations. How inspiring it is to see him find people outside of his home who genuinely care for him, are there for him the best they can be, reassuring him he’s not alone and there is hope. Friends are important, and this story beautifully shows how support from the people around you can give you strength and courage to deal with the tragedy that comes your way. The art is gorgeous, the story is amazing and the speed, character death and growth is perfect. Well done author!

This story does exactly what it set out to do. To show how twisted and deluded the seme (rapist) is and how a sociopath path shows love and affection through their f’d up way. I actually once knew someone like this which is kinda scary. This entire story is filled with nothing but rape, abuse, torture, manipulation, and finally shows how desperate someone is to set themself free of their abuser. In the end our uke develops clear signs of Stockholm syndrome, with no one left by his side in life, no friends or family that care about him, he turns back to the only person who’s ever shown anything towards him. His abuser. This is the definition of a toxic and dangerous relationship, and the only sense of hope I have for them at this point, is that near the end the seme begins to become safe aware, saying things like “I really must be crazy, I think I’m crazy” and only then Realizes after someone doing to the uke what he had been doing to him all along, hurt him. This was someone he loved. It almost started to register with him that it was wrong. when our uke was tired of the abuse and decided to take his own life, it terrified the seme into finally letting him go, but since the uke went back to him at this point I hope the terrified, and now self aware seme will either seek out mental health and treat our uke better, or be manipulated and used by our uke. In the end, they both suffer. Think the author did a good job showing what they wanted the story to convey about how some sociopaths register ‘love’ and ‘affection’

5 ⭑ Very dark, emotional psychological story about a boy who gets kidnapped and used as a high end prostitute for wealthy clients and struggles to keep his humanity desperately longing for the warmth of his past.

4★ This story... has been an emotional rollercoaster, spanning like, 15 years? I don't like the seme for just forcing himself on the uke, although I know his frustration and anger, abuse is never the answer, the one thing I will give him is that he got therapy for the uke to help work through his trauma... but I feel like that being countered by the seme who forces himself on the uke and keeps him trapped, and I understand part of that is for his own protection but... yeah. This is a toxic relationship. I like the story in the beginning and closer to the end of season 2, I'm hoping season 3 deals with a lot of the bs thats been over looked and the uke wises up and learns rather just being afraid all the time and running away. All in all, its a good read and I want more.
