otakulys's manga / #abuse(53)

It might be the translation in part, but this manga was just a total mess. It was all over the place and abrupt, full of a toxic relationship that couldn't be fixed by any means, let alone the minor ones the uke puts into play. But whatever. The masochist story was also messy but it was ultimately quite cute. If it hadn't been so all over the place, I think I would have really liked it. The guy being so concerned and loving over his guy while also being a sexual sadist was great. He was so sweet and loving, but totally kinky. It's nice that they work for each other like that. It's clear this mangaka has some pretty overt fetishes, especially with pain during sex. But I just couldn't get past the crazy plot and kind of confusing story. Again, I think that was mostly the translation, but I can tell things wouldn't have changed all that much if it were polished up.

Everyone in this story sucks. The end. I initially thought Yeonho was just really stupid, but it turns out he's nosy, hypocritical, and really stupid. Like, mind your own business, bitch. I don't know why I'm still reading this. Maybe because the twisted nature of a father and son fighting over the same powerless pretty boy is appealing to me in a masochistic sort of way. I wish I could get something like this more often only, you know, written well.

I don't know if I read this before, but I guessed everything from the start. It was weird, I kept feeling like maybe I had read it, but I think it was just because I'd read the author's other work. Either way, I was hoping for some interesting twists, but I just got what I expected.
