blueberry's manga / #Raep(100)

LOVE IT! THE ANGST IS TOP-NOTCH and I basically saved all the chapters in my bookmarks lol A whole lotta truth-bombs about personality and maturity, super cool relationship dynamics, good depiction of guilt + trauma, really nice smut, nice funny and wholesome moments that unexpectedly didn’t take away from the story, it’s a beautiful package all in one

4.5-5*; So it started real quick LOL there was no buildup whatsoever BUT it reads like uhhhh a western M/M novel and it’s pretty good, aside from the uncomfortable foreign vibes I tend to get with these type of western-angst-violence-drugs-sex mangas (stories in general??) The possessive stalker-love is real nice, they both fkd up and made for each other ;)))))) Their dynamic is funny I like how well they fit each other, their personalities bounce well off of each other

Pretty nice revenge stories Maybe I’m not as emotionally invested cuz the antagonists are…overly antagonistic? Lmao they’re lowkey made into villains just for the hell of it Which is fine and all, I like the main character’s rage :3

THE ART SO SEGGSY, ITO’S SO FKN HOT BRO THE ART’S SO HOT BRO BRO ok anyways lol the story’s pretty much a typical abandoned-children-leading-depraved-lives-get-together kinda story. Pitiful assassin + pitiful prostitute. Typical thrills, conflict, pacing, etc…BUT IT’S AWESOME HEHHEE AND THE ART’S SO HOT Main fave part: how dedicated they are to each other (to the point of dying); it’s super possessive and technically toxic but considering their backgrounds this is probs the. Eat they could ever get (and it works for them too!)

THE AUTHOR ENDED THE MANGA WITH VICTIM-BLAMING WTF. ZERO INDICATION OF UKE’S FEELINGS OF GUILT BEING WRONGLY DIRECTED AT HIMSELF, THE ROOT CAUSE AND WHOLE CULPRIT IS THE RAPIST Ok uh, so the beginning-to-near-end was really good, I loved the angsty parts and bookmarked my fav chapters, but…wtf was that ending? The uke was too stupid to realize that he wasn’t the “killer” of his stepmom, he was just cornered and attempted to confide in someone trustworthy as a last-ditch effort to survive…and I guess he didn’t tell his 3-year therapist about his killer guilt cuz he never realized that the ROOT CAUSE OF ALL THIS SHIT IS THE FUCKING RAPIST!? If the therapist heard of this, he wojld’vd told the uke straight up thay the guilt was unfounded and uke should NOT be held responsible for stepmom’s death Of course the rapist wouldn’t admit to being the root cause of it all and correcting the uke cuz who tf cares about the uke’s feelings, eh? As long as the rapist gets his dick wet with the uke he doesn’t give a shit Now, I wojldn’t be so pissed about this ending if the author actually addressed this unfairness. As it was, it all came out of left field and it felt like the author truly believed thay uke = indirect killer of stepmom. Like NO BITCH, IT WAS THE RAPIST’S FAULT, WTF? The author NEVER mentions that fact via other characters (*cough*therapist*cough*) and just left it as is. Bitch, at LEAST draw the ending in a way that doesn’t look so fucking romanticized and sparkly and shit. At LEAST portray the uke lookin’ truly broken that he is while WRONGLY believing that he was a criminal, that he’s a trash that deserves to be with someone as filthy as the rapist, that he’s suffering Stockholm Syndrome, etc.. The author just went “yeah uke fell in love ok they’re living HEA kbye”. Zero fucking logic. Author, you should know better. Are you dumb??? Way to send the worst fucking message and victim-blame

Didn’t read the second story, but first one was good. Angst was short-lived lol but the healing process was soft and nice

Hehe nicely fkd up Big bro is nice Waifu is best waifu The servants are cuckolders lmaoooo

Could’ve been drawn a lot more ominously and with more crazed expressions (it was a lot of impassive faces) but I liked it!

I loved the angst but ngl, it felt a TINY bit superficial lol it was a little hard to immerse myself (still made good bookmarks tho, just have to do a bit of mental gymnastics to get into it). Maybe it’s cuz of the slightly cliche setting that wasn’t too…unique? Near the end got a bit confusing, and I’m not sure how realistic it is to get over everything like that lmaoooooo but I guess he author wanted to end the series real quick. It was an aesthetically mature way to resolve the conflicts (if not a little cliche) but it okkkkk
