LookElsewhere's manga / #BOY OH BOY IS THIS SHIT ASS(2)

oh my good lord, what the FUCK did i just read the sheer amount of rape, the blaming of the victim and the victimization of the abuser. i literally can't cope fr i honestly don't have words for how much i hated this shit. i spent most of this shitshow yelling at the top to stop being such a piss piss crybaby bitch and leave, quit making excuses and justifying his actions when he's so clearly in the wrong. the bottom is honestly fucking stupid, i just know there's a rattling sound when he shakes his head. this mfer was raped by white hair dickhead SEVERAL TIMES and is still in love with him? that's not a masochist, thats someone whos completely fucked in the head. author is a sick, twisted piece of shit and needs to grow some morals.

why do all the artists with beautiful art styles have to be weird pieces of shit?? this review is being rewritten as i cringe every time i read my old one. hwan is a creepy, abusive, obsessive, poorly written asshole who's only redeeming quality is his looks (and if i'm being honest pretty much all the main characters are just as attractive as him if not more). chiwoo is not "allowed" to have a friend all for the sake of making hwan feel secure in his relationship. chiwoo was raped by hwan SEVERAL TIMES. the rape scene before or after chiwoo went into the army (can't remember, i don't hate myself enough to go through the torture of rereading) gave me a very very very icky feeling about hwan's true colors but the creepy expression and dialogue in more recent chapters have solidified that ick (coupled with his murdering jin). moving on to my second point, sagold, was it truly necessary for chiwoo to get assaulted in every chapter? i get your vision for the book was "oh! magic dildo that makes him have powers and also attracts sexual monsters that he has to use the dildo to fight off because what would my story really even be if half of wasn't explicit porn??" but really, throw some plot in there somewhere. it's honestly embarrassing how she can't even come up with an inventive or less sexualized way to solve the monster problems, even more so that she can't solve them without making sure her character has nonconsensual sex with almost all of them. third. sweet jesus, the PACING. awful. i usually can look past really fast or slow pacing but when your plot looks like an engine stalling i do get a bit frustrated. nothing for 15 chapters, BAM love confession, nothing for 10 chapters, BAM rape scene, BAM some more rape scenes, flatline for several chapters, BAM hwan probably has several personality disorders and needs to be straitjacketed immediately. really going for that shock value. my fourth and final point. jin. my sweet lovely amazing beautiful radiant jin. the author is an absolute IDIOT for killing him. he was the only thing that made this circus worth reading! he's so sweet and respectful, probably the only character in the book who didn't take advantage of chiwoo on sight. no, he wanted to romance him, make sure he was comfortable before he even brought up sex and it wasn't just a front, because that holds true behind closed doors! a couple of other small things, how did hwan get his dildo or sex toy thing that gave him his blue thing?? details are fuzzy as it has been (thank god) a while since i read this.
