What bothered me wasn't Miyashita not being willing to be a bottom. We all have preferences and I respect that. But the way he reacted and afterwards when he tried to brush off Mali's feelings. And the fact that the one to yield had to be Maki really just made me not enjoy this couple. I also really wish they would stop referring to the bottom role as the woman role.

Acclaimed model gives up entire career for his new up and coming model bf he literally doesn't know and who doesn't know what to do with his life caving in under threats of some major editor. Like literally that's what happens. It's not that deep as some people think. You can make any theme as deep or as shallow as you want. This one could have been heavy weren't for the fact that you never know why TF did Kou think sleeping his way to the top was his only option. Specially when you have three other characters doing alright in the same line of work without resorting to such methods. You don't even know why the hell does he keep doing it when he has reached the top. He gives up his ways for a person he barely knows and that acts more like a fan than someone who actually likes him for who he is. Then decided that the only acceptable way to protect him is to give up his career by revealing how he got his gigs. Yet I don't understand how the editor is still in one piece because let's be honest, yes, publicly the model gets roasted but the people who gave a job to someone in exchange of sexual favours don't go scot free. The idea is clichéd yes. But that doesn't mean it's a bad thing. What's bad is the execution. You can read the same idea a thousand times if the characters and story are well carried then it won't matter. This unit the case.

I can't believe most comments are slut shaming the uke and no one calls out the seme for raping him 3 times and then refusing to communicate only to get pissy about the uke taking the relationship as something casual. I don't like cheating at all, but I can hardly call what the uke did cheating when he was r*ped, ignored, kept as a pet and treated as an amusement. I would not call that a serious relationship. I can't believe I'm reading those kind of comments in this era

For once the seme didn't seem like the bad guy somehow. He tries for the use to go out and get a life, he tells her about this woman who was in no way a threat. The one I disliked was the uke. He was obsessed with the seme and he made him the centre of his existence which is not healthy for either. He got anxious all by himself and when the seme was making an effort to communicate he shut off. He was just so freaking unnerving. I'm not saying the seme was better, far from the truth actually. When the use said "I love you" he responded with "you're beautiful". But if we are to compare, he was the least worst of the couple. Also, I kinda didn't understand Haru's change of character and who tf Tatsuhiko was.

It wasn't bad, it wasn't good either. I don't think I would read it again. It felt really shallow and the snut didn't even make it worth it
