Not a Sugar Daddy
Okay, so the part with the misunderstandings and all that painful stuff, along with the fact that he was SO mean to the uke (though he was acting out of hurt, which is a human thing to do), was very heartbreaking. But other than that, they are the sweetest, most loving couple I've seen in a while. They're in a truly healthy relationship, which is so rare in any romantic genre, especially yaoi. The seme just loves him so, so much. Also, A+ for the depiction of a coping rape survivor. It's easy to forget things, to second guess yourself, to downplay what happened. Behavior gets more erratic, guilt rushes in, then anger. A victim may randomly lash out or express sensitivity toward things that they'd normally been okay with. You just never really get to see that. Rape can't be healed with make up sex. As of chapter 27, I really like it. I hope it keeps being great. There are things that make it less than perfect, but they're overshadowed by how different it is as a manwha. I'm so glad he finally called out those shitty girls for what they did, though I suppose I should forgive the one chick for lashing out in anger, too. She had a big crush, and she took her hurt out on the uke. Regardless, I'm so happy he finally said something. So often it's this stupid thing where he instantly forgives everyone, or they never really talk about it. He actually got pissed and said how he felt. I wish more stories were like this. Looking forward to the next chapter!

Aww, such a sweet story! I'm bummed about a few things, and there's some stuff that was really glossed over, but ultimately it was such a happy, loving story despite how both of them felt trapped. They even avoided the "misunderstanding for the next 100 pages" bullshit that so many of these stories turn to. Plus, pretty! I wanted him to have a friend, though. Hate that it had to be an either/or situation, when his friend wasn't even part of his father's perfect plan. I wanted to see him feel free to hang out with who he wanted, including his childhood friend. Meh. Anyway, I really enjoyed it. I wish there were more. Also, wtf, why are "twisted" and "dark" popular tags for this manga?
