ojisan enthusiast's manga / #Webtoon(24)

wow this sucks

Totally Captivated is a roller coaster ride. It’s full of humor, drama and fluff. The tropes are all from very cliché romcoms, but that’s all part of it’s charm. This series will totally captivate you. There are definitely questionable stuff, but it still leaves you satisfied and with a good taste!

oh mannnnnn this webtoon is FUCKED UP. it’s not like ogawa chise’s work kind of dark where the art and general atmosphere is creepy but this story’s themes are worse. probably. the ending is more of a pyrrhic victory and pretty open-ended. i definitely wont reread this because its one of those things where once you know the mini plot twists and surprises, you just end up feeling repulsed DEADASS THE MOST TOXIC COUPLE EVER. its rape scene back to back. i hope kyungsoo went to theraphy. idk how he remained somewhat sane after his first trauma. HE BETTER LEAVE LIKE BRO LEAVEEE

boring as hell lol its just a side story to kangwoo’s friends in k’s secret

oh fuck man i have a bit to say. i first read this about early last year and was OBSESSED with the concept. since the start, i already knew there was something that love, the mc, was hiding and that something being his ability to fight. it’s been hinted a lot. however, i remember being really REALLY bored and annoyed after the reveal was made. this is how it goes: i became so enthusiastic because love went badass mode. that was cool. i also got to learn love’s past. BUT i got so fucking annoyed when peach found out and love ran away. its so so so annoying and makes me wanna beat the shit out of love. the subplot between king and cherry was also horrible. it’s so unlikable and makes me want to puke with how disgusting and boring they are. ugh. king was an absolutely useless character who only appears when it’s convenient. honestly, a lot of the characters are boring. the only exception is love. peach’s just hot and cool and brooding. this wasn’t really a bl manga but more of action. in the beginning, it was SOOOOO incredibly promising and the hints of love’s true ability was what made me continue reading but now that i’m reading it for the second time i realized how shitty this series is. the relationship between love and peach is SO flat and weak. peach falls in love at first sight for love because he says a few sweet words and the author does NOTHING to expand their relationship. they just literally wrote down that “eventually peach confessed and they started dating” literally. this would’ve been fine if she had added more romantic and plot-relevant scenes that affect their relationship after but NOOOOOO the thing is— this isn’t really a bad webtoon. the characters suck. the relationships are weak. but it has (or had) potential and it worked at first read. it is, however, a horrible BL webtoon. once you get over the hype for love’s true skills as a fighter and finish the scene when peach “finds out”, you start losing interest RAPIDLY never gonna reread it sucks

ch 49 a few things: - 2ND COUPLE SUCKS (as always) - i really didnt like how their bantering dynamic changed after dating. like they’re still moments of it but it’s SO mellowed down that the couple itself has no more appeal.

THERE WAS SO MUCH FUCKING POTENTIAL IM GONNA CRY????? SUCH A BIG WASTE ITS SO SHORT WTF

this had such a potential to be super good and super long its so sad thats theres only 3 chapters bc everything felt rushed

this was super fun to read snd its been awhile that k read a webtoon that flowed like a kdrama ahhahaha but for some reason, there’s something lacking about it? like it’s super good and worthy to be added to my favorites but i dont know i feel like there’s something missing and the last couple chapters were pretty meh tbh and some plot threads were pretty weak

ch 290 [accidentally ends up shipping neil with both nick and john]
