ReviewRaptor's manga / #GOOD WRITING(11)

I really need to remember to check info before just reading when bored. I am getting flashbacks to my early days of fucked up yaoi reading. I should have checked the author name. ╥﹏╥ Now I gotta go look for fluff to cleanse my memory. Which will take years. AGAIN. I just had forgotten most horrors of Harada after these 10 years! (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ Anyway, even if this is still a 'happy story' from Harada: Stay away if you cannot stand the following. - Parents pimping out their children - Child R@pe & Prostitution (Christ on a stick, get the holy waterfall for me please) - Shitty parents behaving like trash and not being sorry - General Whores, both bottoms and tops - Regular rape - Prostitution because you have literally nothing else in life - People treating the MC like trash and a fleshlight - Betrayal in various colours of the rainbow - and some more things I am trying to forget already If you're looking to be sad and disgusted as well as mentally scarred: This is for you! :D If you want to keep your sanity: Run. RUN. RUN NOW. And don't you EVER read any other works from this author! There's a good fuckin' reason the term Harada-esque was coined after this author created so many fucked up stories they became the god of the genre and all other creators works were judged by their standards of writing fucked up shit. Spare yourself the years of haunting. I know the writing is good, but that is only to lure you in before you get the hell beaten outta your innocent mind! RUN. Do not become like me, child!!!! （/TДT)/

SPOILERS, you have been warned. At first I just thought it was a stalker x stalker story to get fun scenarios and lotsa smut, but I'm surprised that the author gave both characters rhyme and reason, especially reason for the seme, and made sure they are the good kind of stalker (realizing, changing, etc.). It was quite well done to give the seme such a reason for his behavior. Which is why I wouldn't exactly label him a stalker in the usual sense. And the MC himself started out exhibiting stalker behavior but dropped it early on, that was a nice breeze of fresh air. XD I really like how it's written. Tho I think this would have benefitted from going more slow, less comedy-like and putting more effort into making it emotional in all ways present (falling in love, being happy, being obsessed, being scared, being sad and feeling guilty, etc.). The art itself is decent, maybe a little cookie cutter for some but still decent and pleasant to look at. Writing is great despite it being so rushed almost. And the overall story is lovely. Wholesome, contrary to what one might think. XD Definitely recommended! Especially as a nice casual read but still nothing silly in terms of character behavior per se.

I dare say; This is the perfect yaoi for ALL readers, seasoned AND beginners alike. Seasoned readers can appreciate the very good writing and romance paired with smut. And I would honestly rate this story as a really perfect beginners yaoi with smut that is not too dragged out, for those who got tired of shoujo-ish shounen-ai. This story got it all: - Great art - Perfect writing - Likable character, but each with their own flaw - Dramatization tropes but NOT letting them overstay their welcome at all, they are perfectly utilized here - Great base story with lots of details that are well thought out and not just mashed in, they make the story interesting, realistic and help it flow smoothly while not making things too boring. - Emotional aspects, funny moments, detailed smut and lots of wholesomeness - Life lessons! BL 99% of the time ignores making stories realistic, letting the characters act human and let them figure things out in sweet or hard ways. This story definitely did well to incorporate this by displaying two naive teens figuring themselves out and finding love. In a very precious and realistic way, that I wish MUCH more authors would do. - And especially I need to mention: creative angles/poses during the smut scenes! We get so many 'standard' poses these days that at least 2 of these poses and angles used in this comic felt shockingly new and I have no idea why people do not make use of creativity in that regard much more. It makes things more interesting and impressive to look at. :) I think this is a precious little gem. And the way it's written, I definitely think THIS is the story people should point newcomers to when they want to step away from shounen-ai for the first time. The smut is interesting, detailed but not way too dragged out to make it potentially uncomfortable or weird. All while still having emotions present and being exchanged. Most smut really ignores that these past few years. :'D MUST READ! 10/10 with a personal extra point since I think this author just did such a fabulous job on all fronts. Highly recommended, for newcomers and seasoned readers alike. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶

Beware: The 'official' uploads are NOT the officials, they are altered uploads of the original to contort it to korean webtoon format. Which I think does not work for this manga, the original page layout is better.
