bokutotiddies's manga / #dark(39)

i feel sick. what was the reason to fucking kill jaeha. there was nothing to gain and he deserved the best out of all of them. why show the same character suffering again and again. i hate this so much i feel so empty. what the fuck was this ending, i wish i hadnt read this. or i wish i stopped 5 chapters ago. this is bullshit. what was the reason to kill him. this is the most unsatisfying ending ive ever read. he doesnt even realize he killed his own brother. and why did he kill all those random people. just, what the fuck. i liked this so much but now i hate it. i wish i hadnt read. this is bullshit i feel awful. nothing was resolved????? it just ended in tragedy? what the actual FUCK. theres tears streaming down my face but i dont understand! what the fuck was this ending.

15/10 for sure. incredibly well-written. i dont think ive read such a political bl yet, but this was a perfect, angst-filled story. even tho my heart was uneasy almost the entire read, im beyond happy that everyone who deserved a happy ending, received exactly that. connor and simon have one of the healthiest relationships ive ever seen depicted and the love between them is something i dont think ill ever experience myself but i grew to adore them a lot. connor, specifically, is my favourite character and i was constantly on standby to fuck up a bitch if anything bad ever happened to him. simon, oh hopelessly in love simon, suffered a fucking ton pretty much all of the second half of the story. like honestly the man couldnt catch a break, but ig thats what he had to go thru to be forgiven for being white LOL. there were a lot of extremely dark and graphic things in this manhwa that made it really hard to digest. rape and murder are always disgusting but racial/homophobic discrimination just makes my heart super heavy and all three of them are a lethal combination thats not good for the mental health tbh. regardless im glad i read this. it was very deep and interesting; i loved what the author had to say on these topics. the artstyle was a little weird and i dont think i ever really got completely used to it (especially bc simon looks like fucking jake paul and connors long hair is so damn ugly please) but its fine the story being told goes beyond shit like aesthetics. gale was fucking psychotic and i still dont get what his deal is but i dont care as long as he leaves my bbs alone. that fucking bitch veronica is a parasite and ruined their lives and for fucking what? bc of an asian fetish? revolting. dumb cunt deserved to die. actually this is one of the few stories where the ppl who should die actually totally did die! quite painfully too. its really cathartic. the entire section w connors family finding out abt them literally gave me nightmares and made me feel so sick. i cant imagine something like that happening. good thing his mom is a sweetheart with an open mind. religion is so fucking bullshit honestly if it makes you think you have the right to interfere with someone else’s happiness. people are inherently hateful and violent and will always seek the weakest amongst them to band together against and hurt. fuck society and fuck what others have to say. its all bullshit. we should all just live our lives as we please and let others do as they please. ugh whatever. anyways this was great, definitely cannot stomach a reread tho.

its been a few days since i read the majority of the story but i thoroughly enjoyed this read. honestly, everything was 10/10 except for maybe how fast paced it was during the very last few chapters but honestly I'm really happy with all the character developments and story arcs. i was always surprised how it managed to pack a huge punch in just a mere 2-3 chapters but that's exactly what allowed it to have so many story/character arcs in just 50 chapters. I've seen manhwas twice this length with less plot and interesting storylines. I'm so obsessed with the character designs (literally started it solely for kiha, that beautiful BEAUTIFUL intellectual man) and the whole korean historical aesthetic and setting. all the men were so fucking stunning, i couldn't stop drooling at all of them and its the main reason it took me so long to read LOL. kiha is so poetic and kind and just overall wonderful. I've never read a story w a ML like him, i think i genuinely grew feelings for him lmaooo. ellin is a great and very likable fl and she always acted the way i think i would have in situations so it was satisfying to see. I'm sad that jin was such an asshole bc hes truly so fucking hot. kinda thought he should've died in the end but it was nice that he lived anyways. my heart BROKE for the twins and lights death was so fucking tragic that i literally cheered when i saw his isekai-moment. he deserves the best and so does moon. i think my fav characters are moon and kiha fs. ahhh i wish men irl grew out their hair like the mls but the more i think abt it, it doesn't hit the same without the outfits. plus they're not kiha or light so its just not the same. period. anywyas, the storyline is really really good and its actually my first ever isekai (sabrina is vv proud) so it'll always be one i will rmbr. 9.5/10

that was so good omg. v short but really fucking cool. i love the art. its really difficult to make out whats happening sometimes but the full screen panels are worth it. so insanely cool. the plot was fucked up as hell. its like he wanted to escape his situation so badly that he resorted to murder but never thought abt dying himself. this man has the strongest will to live ive ever seen. anyways 9/10

aghhh. all i'm thinking about rn is that i'm so glad i waited to read this now and didnt before chapter 50 was uploaded. to think that ppl had to suffer with that ending for 2 years. and it was an end - their lives ended that day. but im so glad we got closure and that they were able to find each other in another life. this is a story i've put off since i started reading bl bc i've heard about how sad and heartbreaking it is, and though it entirely lived up to those claims, it was also more sweet and wholesome than i was expecting. i didnt realize just how in love they would be. especially gusam, he was so fully in love with suchae and it was painful to see how helpless and guilty he felt in their relationship. but what could suchae do, he was just as in love and obsessed with gusam. i hate that they had to resort to that kind of ending, but im honestly glad they died together rather than having to get forced apart. every chapter i would grow anxious that it would be the last time to see them together and gusam would get captured and tortured, but it never came and im so grateful for that. i ended up growing so attached to gusam even when i was trying really hard not to bc i knew it would hurt to see him get wronged. their circumstances were so unfair it makes my blood boil thinking about it. that fucking rapist shouldve gotten sawed into 100 bits and pieces. im so glad he was killed and the detective fucker too, fuck him. though its an incredible story and i felt just abt every single emotion run through me while reading, the end feels so abrupt and incomplete. thought, i suppose that fits the motif of a rain shower. but i do wonder what exactly happened to gusam that day and if that kenma lookalike was the one who actually committed the crime. i wonder if the subplot with him and the wimpy dude was supposed to go somewhere. i guess if gusam had to die without knowing exactly what happened to him, we do too. ugh, this was painful but im really glad i finally read it - 10/10

i read the hardcover version and not only is it fat as hell, but also as good as i rmbr it. this is the first manga (i think) i ever read, back in grade 10. so its been about four years and its now also the first actual manga novel i own. im nothing if not sentimental like that. anyways, i was lowkey expecting a happy ending? i mean the ending doesnt really make sense, so ito-sensei couldve at least made it a happy one yknow. but its fine. i read this thicc ass manga in one day, bc just like the spiral, the story sucked me in ~~~ ooo scary. my fav chapters are the spiral obsessions. the goriest was either jack in the box or the umbilical cord. reading that in the dark of my room with only my phone flashlight illuminating some horrifying lineart was definitely an experience i suppose. consistently had a crush on both shuichi (def doesnt have anything to do w the fact he looks just like akaashi) and kirie from beginning to end, and im glad they stayed together til they died in e/os arms. anyways, uzumaki and junji ito will always have a special place in my heart. if we're talking art - 100/10, plotwise, 8/10

i read this agessss ago and i remember thinking it was pretty good but nothing spectacular. i should watch the anime tbh to refresh.

end of s1: hOLYYYY SHIT i shouldve just waited a few months to read this i cannot fucking believe this is how it ended. ughhhh my god THIS SHIT IS SO FUCKED UP. I HATE THAT MAN SO MUCH. my beautiful poor baby juha and MY SON DOOSIK DESERVE THE WORLD AND HAPPINESS TOGETHER. FUCK. shit got me FUCKED UP. pilwon deserves death thats all ill accept as an ending for him. the author better not be considering setting him up w doosik's friend bc he deserves much better than that and i could never support them tbh.

yoooo i loved this. its definitely fucked up but i liked it anyways. the second couple especially are v cute. the art is what made me read it tho its so pretty in a grimy and interesting way 9/10
