otakulys's manga / #smut(177)

Only one chapter translated, unfortunately. I want to know what the rest says, but it's all so sad anyway. The meta, dark humor of it has me intrigued. I already know how it ends, but I'd like to know more about what's happening in the meantime. That final shot is so damn abrupt though, and... I kind of like that the bully top gets to lose something in such an awful way. Maybe you shouldn't have treated him so badly.

Beautiful art, but it was just a rape fetish story. It had the humiliation and the mind break and everything. Just not for me. It was weird when it cut to the next shot and the kid is just dead. We didn't even get to see the fallout of that, but suddenly the captain is just horny for cock. I don't get the mind break kink.

The main story wasn't really for me. Too rushed, kinda cheesy. I couldn't really get into it because everything moved so quickly. It made them all seem weird and illogical. The third story, however, was interesting. I love the way it was framed, and the subtle shift with the girl. Realizing this guy they all idolize is a sadist. The simple change from the beginning. I really loved that final line, "...I don't..."

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.

It's really a shame that this started with rape. It wasn't perfect throughout, but I would have liked the story so much more if it didn't start with violent sexual assault and another stupid uke who somehow logics his way into getting repeatedly fucked when he doesn't want to. I hate those tropes SO damn much. If this story had been about two consensual fuck buddies from the start, it would have been so satisfying. Watching the cold seme show that he's falling in other ways, that scene where he beats the crap out of those guys... It all would have meant so much more if their own beginning hadn't been super gross. Especially all of the emphasis on him being a kid. It was just weird. But somehow I didn't completely hate it. Maybe because I pretended the first chapter or so wasn't real.

Eh. Probably gonna be the usual bullshit. Rapey and unpleasant, a top that treats the bottom like crap, but still ends up with him in the end with virtually no work on his own part. But we'll see, I guess.

It's a mess and not finished, but I was hoping for something interesting here, and that's on me. Just the same, usual, low-creativity smut where a guy is assaulted but starts to like it and suddenly that makes it okay.
