just_m3h's manga / #Gaslighting(2)

Looks kinda interesting, but also? Too many pain-in-the-ass characters (not the mains) Edit: Story about an abused soul, barely hanging onto his life and sanity, finally meeting the man who would breathe new life into him (and save himself in the process). The only real POS character is Seung Jae's disease of a brother! The rest have substance to them, if nothing else. Geum Hwa is such a fragile person, so unstable and wavering and hungry, but not sure for what, forever searching for a safe place to land. Or was that drown? Seung Jae is certainly his ocean. I love them together, they were clearly meant to be. They seemed to provide safe havens for each other in a way they hadn't seemed to know they needed. Min Wook is such a psychopath, like, he's literally insane, and such an abusive dick who was gaslighting the shit out of Geum Hwa. But I don't doubt he loved him once. He couldn't hold Geum Hwa, the sand like Geum Hwa, who was sliding out of his fists, never meant to be his, and he couldn't live with that. I am glad he let him go, not under any kind of delusion that that was in any way easy. Would love to see his own story with Seung Jae's underling. Geum Hwa and Seun Jae honestly need about at least, AT THE VERY LEAST, 10 sextras and flufftras.

This just is. Crazy to me. The rating. Tatsuki was an opportunistically shitty person who tried to coerce someone whom he thought sold his body, in exchange for the fee to launder his shirt, after a drink was spilled. At that point, I would have rooted for Miyako, any day of the week. But then, Miyako not only gaslighted him, paid off everyone around him to lie to him, raped him, blackmailed him, sent him creepy shit in the mail and even broke into his house to leave used condom wrappers and shit. Like, that's fucking psychotic. He is legitimately a psychopath. And Tatsuki has falling in love with him knowing all this? No thanks. 2.5
