madd's manga / #So toxic it’s a biohazard(53)

He keeps getting bullied for no reason, literally why. And the guy just SA’ed him when he clearly said no. -_-

I don’t even know what to rate this. It’s just such a mess. Some parts are good and some parts are just like wth. But had to drop it the moment they revealed that Sawa was dating his UNDERAGE COUSIN. Like… why just why.

Guy literally r* words a minor (by Japanese standards before 2021) in the first chapters so I’m out goodbye.

Adding another person on my hit list to stabby stab if I ever came across them on the street :D.

I can’t see why people would like this one. I feel like their relationship is just too toxic for me to the point the romance pretty much came out of nowhere. We hardly ever see Woojin act like he’s in love with Taemin despite him ‘’being head over heels’. He never acts slightly awkward, blushes, nothing, all we see him do is just force himself on Taemin. Him leaving to get stronger for Taemin was kind of… weird, but I guess he was a kid so maybe that mentatilty makes sense to a 9 year old or sumthin, but idk why he didn’t just yk go to get physically stronger, that makes more sense. He’s honestly just a dirtbag and never really changes, Taemin is just expected to change to adjust for Woojin’s ‘needs’ and abrasive personality insteaed of Woojin adjusting for Taemin cuz he’s yk, supposed to be in love with him. I get the backstory of the both them being born to abusive homes and how they ended up, only for both of them to end up in abusive home again, but I felt like the story should’ve focused on that, because that was where it was strongest. Woojin could have been a quiet, brooding teen but he shouldn’t take it out on people, cuz he just looks like an a**hole for no reason. His backstory should only explain what he does not excuse it. (Notice how these authors love to make these terrible characters and then randomly drope sad backstory lore after they do deplorable acts to try and make up for it.) I get that Taemin slightly liked him, but there’s that and just having no backbone. Which honestly Woojin a worst person cuz he takes advantage of how Taemin has never truly experienced affection or romatinc attention, and intimacy to catch him off guard. And after they get together Taemin just goes deep into tsundere mode and I hate tsunderes I’m sorry. Pretty much all the characters are all insufferable or one-note, the only ones I kind of enjoyed is Minjun and Hoon although their weird master/slave dynamic they have is just… no. Anyway I feel like the more I talk about this the less I like it. I was right in dropping it but I’m glad I actually know it’s trash now. 3 out of 10 It only gets an extra point because the art is absolutley gorgeous and they have some beautiful dynamic scenes.
