U got e x p o s e d's manga / #Drama(147)

If it wasn't for the art and Ain, I would've deadass dropped this a long time ago. Boring. There are no other words. The progression is so slow that it feels like nothing is changing/happening.... and the FL is pretty annoying. Her knowledge she got from reading the novel absolutly didn't help her. But like, not AT ALL. She's ignoring it, having her sweet time with Ain- and fearing the duke. B o r i n g

The uke gets raped, sexually assaulted, and is pretty much seen as an object. His opinion doesn't matter and he got fucked while someone else was watching. Typical yaoi. Disgusting.

Honestly at this point I don't even care about the story anymore. . . . . The FL's got NO BRAIN. Like. Literally. I was frustrated during the whole chapters cuz she wouldn't speak her mind. The boy toy isn't even *that* dangerous of an antagonist. She's the empress. She has the Emperor's trust and (unacknowledged) love. There's NOTHING stopping her from kicking him out. He has no goddamn power. The only reason he's still in the palace is cuz she wants him to. Other than her no one wanted him in there until now. All the things which are gonna happen with Ryu Ban and the Holy Maiden could've been really, really easily avoided if she spoke lile she did for the Emperor a few chapters ago. And, honesrly, all that talk about "lies" was, for now, pretty useless. Yes, it made her kinda realize what she trully wanted all this time and (sorta?) her feelings for the emperor (and the country in some way?), but for the sake of what ? The story's (un)lacking romance.  Ok fine. This has a romance tag so obviously it's gonna need some more romance. But the moments are so wrongly choosen. How can she still go around, blush and go doki♡doki around the Emperor when she perfectly knows that there's some man who obviously means her, the Emperor or just the country generally speaking harm ? There's like, NO TIME FOR THAT. Get your priorities straight.  And Lord Jesus, Ryu Ban ? I'm so disappointed. All the characters are disappointing at this rate. The character development is non-existent, that talk abt lies apart. It hurts me to say so but the only probably really good characters are the boy toy and the Emperor. Maybe the Prime Minister too. That's all. The others characters are annoying and disappointing.  - For now I'll stay for the incredible art and fluffly scenes between the empress ans the emperor cuz damn, that shit cute. I ain't gonna hurt my own feelings by reading something which will make me cry in frustration and despair. When things will be settled I'll probably read this one more time. If it doesn't ger better then I guess I'll just drop this

Great story at first, became boring real fast. The love triangle with Perrat was useless; just made us readers feel really bad, and then, start hating Perrat for being salty over getting rejected. Unnecessary. I didn't feel anything when she finally started going out with the prince because of that. Perrat's love was so much shown that I just couldn't enjoy seeing Vasser and the Prince being happy. Talking about Vasser: she's become the most annoying character. She's cliché and ignorant. Can't stand that. I was waiting for something totally different. I can't even stand reading this now; it legit bores me. I don't even take the time to read this correctly. Might drop it soon.

Loved this way more than I thought I would !!! It may be a classical yaoi chidlhood friends to lovers, the drama was on point and the comedy was awesome. Not gonna forget the smut: incredible!!! Really liked it ♡

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT FINISHED JESUS CHRIST I've been reading this since 2017??? 2018, maybe ? And always loved it. It was pure, cute and super erotic at the same time. Definitely one of my favorites manwhas. I never thought it was boring, never thought it was repetitive, and I'm jinda glad that we didn't get a sex scene for the end like most yaoi manwhas, cuz we got back that cute and wholesome feeling we got at the beginning of the story. It warmed my heart, I felt like crying when they kissed, blushing so much. Their couple was never really "sexualized", I mean, it HAS, but not as much as you would except from a yaoi manga. You could feel their love for each other constantly, and they would always show how much they were in love with each other. They longed for one another, but it didn't keep them from showing how much they were in love. It was such a marvelous read from the beginning to the end, I'll definitely come back to read it one more time.

Never totallyforgot the plot, but still kinda did. I forgot what all the drama was about, the chapters became boring and the drama with it, I started looking at the pages but not reading the bubbles. PAID become boring. It's sad, it probably had a lot of potential and I see a lot of people being happy with the way it ended, but oh well

I'm so confused of my own feelings about this. I HATE r//pe. K//dnapping. All that kind of stuff. Obey Me was the worst crap I've ever read and even if Killing Stalking is neither a yaoi nor romance, I still hated it for its content. But this ? I can't come to hate it. Their disturbed and toxic feelings, their cries for help, their ugly love. It all reminds me of personnal stuff I wish I never remembered about. Romanticizing toxic relationships disgusts me. Yall have no idea how much it does. But this ending,,, made me happy ? In a way. Maybe because they have the ending I used to wish I could have as well. I'm happy for them even though the most proper ending should have been Sungho going to jail and Dohyun getting psychological help. But their story, their childhood; it was all so tragic. Of course it doesn't excuse what they did (mostly what SUNGHO did), but it plays so much in the way you see their relationship at the end. They were just looking for happiness... and they found it in each other. Things just happened to not go well. Dohyun's mental state was shitty ever since highschool, even maybe before that. And his terrible mental state made Sungho lose his mind, becoming someone else for the rest of his life. Through the whole story they made each other loose their mind. Anyways this was beautifully written, never thought I would like this kind of ending for this kind of story. I'm a Sungho kinnie btw ♀ help

Everyone's been saying that the seme is nice and that the blackmailing part is just teasing but blackmail IS blackmail. He forced his way into the uke's life and ignored his feelings. Also, if I EVER woke up naked next to a friend or even WORSE, next to someone I just met, I would delete myself. The shame would never go away. Taking off someone's clothes in their sleep is creep behavior no matter "why" you did it. Are we seriously gonna turn a blind eye to the sexual ass*ult/r*pe too?? Just because the seme is hot or sum, like yall do for ALL the others yaois with r*pe ??? (Love Is An Illusion being a good exemple) Who would even fall for their r*pist anyway ? This manga is not about a heavy topic like Stockholm syndrom. It's literally just all about the sexualization of a toxic relationship. The uke has the right to have his fears and the seme ignored them. Sure, he "wanted to help", but there are ways to do that and some psychologues are specialized into helping closeted people to come out and accept who they are. If someone went badly that could've traumatized the uke for the rest of his life. This manga sucks.

The first couple was a real win if you forget about the r*pe. The seme really tried to make up for his bad decisions and PROPERLY apologized for them. The uke wasn't a dumb ass too, he was a proper human being with feelings who COULDN'T actually forgive his r*pist and that's great, cuz nowadays in yaois ukes forgive their r*pists way too fucking easily ♀ Anywaus second couple sucked ass, when I saw that we had another chapter for them I was really happy, and they HAD to become stepbros. Fuck off. If I see ONE MORE person saying that the 2nd couple is fine because they're not blood relates I'm killing someone
