IDKBTS's manga / #Not my cup of tea(23)

A rollercoaster to say to least. I’m just not the person that likes traumatic stories much, especially high school trauma god…the first volume was adorable and the progression was nice and yes obviously their relationship didn’t develop enough because damn why are they having so much sex bro. Volume 2…god that brother is trash and I hope he chokes on his food everyday

Well, this was…um. Definitely there are some cute moments, like how he understands that he should be true to his feelings and all that. But damn the whole thing wasn’t good, first time they actually had a conversation outside of class stuff and he just attacked him and basically SA him, like wtf…it’s pushing and pushing till the person just rolls with it? That’s the part I hate hate in old mangas and was happy that new mangas and manhwas mostly don’t have that. And god do I hate the “I’m not gay I just like you” like for fuck sake they are so many different labels and ways to describe yourself…

I hate this so much. Seme is trash and literally SA him...there is no story, it's just smut, and the worst one too. Ew.

Before they started dating it was an annoying story, then they started dating and it got nicer, but damn it was still so meh. And the seme is just a dickhead, the uke literally is just forgiving every toxic thing, and honestly his personality changed from the first chapters. Anyway, I didn't like it but it wasn't terrible enough to give it a 1/5.

It just…not good. It’s a whole bullshit of a manga, someone falling in love at first sight they needed tried to pay for the person? And the high schooler just falls in love pretty easy as well…like it’s just bullshit. I’m gonna give this manga the benefit of the doubt that the high schooler is 17-18 and the florist is max 20. Max. Anything besides that is just weird! I love wholesome, found family, kids, sweet, but this was so badly sappy, so…ew. I didn’t like reading it at all, I was rolling my eyes every two seconds. Anyway. Did not enjoy. Giving it 2/5 just because yay found family & the kids are cute.

It did not give what it was supposed to be giving. The idea of the concept itself - I like, something about falling in love early, and bodyguard & high class is a fun cliche, but it was done in a quite disgusting way. Bro manipulated the uke so that he won't have any friends and make him feel guilty, and THAT ONE SCENE WHERE HE DID STUFF TO HIM WHEN HE WAS ASLEEP?! WHAT. They both are so dumb too, like you wanna tell me you really thought that after years of touching each other, you don't think the other person AT LEAST likes you???? Ugh. Such a long story for the wrong couple. I just saw that this is the author of the manga of the horse and tiger - which was so fucked too. WHY DO YOU MAKE BEAUTIFUL ART WITH A TERRIBLE STORYLINE UGH.

How does this shit have 9.1?!?!? LIKE ITS SO BAD?? The art is the only redeemable aspect of this manhwa. The seme is crap, a rapist and a fucking toxic person, the uke is dumb af for being treated like this and JUST BEING OK WITH LITERAL SA, WHAT?!?!? I need to know why tf did the seme thing that "I thought you hate me and will abort the child" is a good reason to lie to the uke that you didn't know who is the father?! WHICH BTW YOU ARE, AND HE ALREADY SAID HE WILL MARRY YOU AND HE LOVES YOU SO HOW TF DOES HE HATE YOU?!?!?!??!?!?!!? I hate this, this was such a waste of time, it's abusive smut, that's all. 2/5 JUST CAUSE THE ART IS NICE.

Listen. This story could have been so good, so beautiful...but instead we got a low graded, horny ass manga. I am just kind of mad, how it all went down, it started well and then Mao was being pushy and idk...it was just weird. The manga is like mixed with good stuff and bad stuff so that's why 3/5 stars. Even then other sotry in chapter 5 was a good start but just WEIRD, why the "hey I got hard/I wanna try out sex" is the motive??? WHY?? I needed more development and realizing feelings rather than being so hyper focused on sex, and yea I know they are teenagers in the first story but like damn how dumb can teens be... The story made me pissed. AND THE ART IS GOOD SO I AM MORE PISSED.

I am not sure what to even say...what was this?!?! Why for months he been his marriage advisor even though he knows that he is his mate and he has a child from him and bro somehow didn't know AND didn't remember that he had sex with this guy and bit him which by the way was so weird why did he so much wanted to bite him and then propose to him?? And why is Kairi right away and had the child and never told him?? like whyyyyyyyy, I don't get it. AND THEN they had sex again because he was jealous of the child's father that he thought Kairi is still in love with, and then Kairi has sex with him because he still loves him but it's so weird!! I feel like I lost so many brain cells reading this!! oh and somehow I rated this 5 out of 5 before, what was I thinking ?? Did I slip down and hit my head?? the child was the redeeming quality of the story because he is so darn cute. I am happy they had a happy ending in a family but Kairi is the stupidest, somehow Haruumi is less terrible - still not great. Also, I feel like the mangaka has a thing with kids, they might be a pedophile cause what the FUCK would a policeman and that child looking (that is 22 year old)?! Kairi kind of looks like a child as well like his expressions and features are childlike and then in the end there's this guy that I think he is in high school telling a child let's get married when you're older what do you mean bro??? What do you mean?! WHAT IS THIS GOD.

The way the mangaka could not decide on heights they kept switching who is taller. The way they fall in love was kind of weird, they went on one date, and somehow developed feelings hella fast. Idk. This feels like one of those older mangas that fetishize rather than appreciate. Although I like the characters, the development of their relationship was just kind of an ick to me.
