myaoich's manga / #dark(21)

oh god. this was definitely one of the heaviest story I have ever come across I can even put in the same level as Killing Stalking. Knew it was gonna be heavy and psychologically depressing, since that's what everyone who read it said before I did, but holy shit...the amount of courage this author has to address all those controversial issues in a manhwa. Since the first chapter, you'll know right away it's gonna be something really dark. I even told myself, "Ah, I have to read 80 chapters of this trauma?" I was even scared to read it first because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to take it. So let's talk about the issues discussed in this book. I think almost every fucked up issue on this planet about humanity has been demonstrated I'm so awed. Racism, rape, drug abuse, homophobia, exploitation, domestic and child abuse, police incompetence, abuse of power, murder, the hypocrisy of religion...like holy shit I bet Juns received hate for being this brave. She managed to put all of that in this story like wow. I'm so impressed. And that Veronica bitch. I agree with Simon btw ever since I saw her I knew she was fucked up. BUT SHE WAS BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS. She was worst wtfff she was mentally ill, though. When her eye twitched I went bananas it was fucking creepy, but like other fucked up people she also had a terrible child that made her become like that. She deserved treatment, but ngl I'm glad she died f that bitch she made my babies suffer so much T_T And Gale...aw man I think I need help. Like, I disliked him when he first appeared ofc because what a fucking piece of shit of a brother but I can't help but like him too. Like the detectives said, it was hard to know what's on his mind, because he's fucked up and all that...but I kinda do, I just dunno how to explain it. He claims to hate his brother, and I do believe that, but not as much as he claims. He only disliked Simon bcs Simon resembles their father in terms of facial features, and we all know that the father is fucking shit too, raping a child...geez I hate pedos so much I wanna skin them alive. Simon has been kind to him (until they grew up ofc because Simon was blinded by his desire for revenge for Conor). I also believe the father's dead and my best theory would be Gale murdering him, it was implied by the symbol of a knife stabbed on him in the family photo, but could be anywhere else too. Dead, I hope. And Mona uwu best lady!! This supportive woman deserves happiness as well, being there for Conor and Simon ever since. She's different from all those hypocrites. I'm glad she found herself a lady too uwu. And ofc our couple, Simon and Connor! Aw man they definitely went through so much. It hurt. They were only loving each other, but had to suffer so much just because of the society they're in. I'm glad the world we currently live in is more open to homosexuality now. I'm glad they are happy!! They definitely deserve it!! Though I wanted to see them together with their adopted child! T_T If I could rate this more than 5 stars I would. The amount of drama feels overwhelming but author has this style of making the ambience lighter (esp chibi art lol) and adds a touch of comedy sometimes but it doesn't ruin the dramatic mood. I love the art style ofc!! And how poetic this was..oh God the metaphors don't even get me started. This is prob the longest review I made xD I have more to say but I read this for 5 hours straight and my head's starting to ache but I LOVE IT!! It's a masterpiece, especially for a debut manhwa.

aw man I wish seme fucking died. I'm glad uke's mother died tho tbh. fucked up.

holy fucking shit one of the most horror bl I've ever read. this is beyond disturbing and gruesome, but the quality and art is fucking good. so fucking gruesome I think this'll scar me for a long time xD that castration and mutilation FUCKKKKKKKK man I hope no animators see this or adapt this bruh. it's also one of the best examples of the saying "Not everyone deserves to be saved." poor guy fucking saved a demon

HOLY SHITTTTTT THIS WAS FUCKING SAD AND DARK. FUCK FUCK FUCK WHAT THE FUCK I DON'T LIKE HOW THIS HURTS THIS IS SO MESSED UP, AND YUUJI IS JUST GONNA LET HIMSELF GET USED LIKE THAT????

I saw the movie and it was *chef's kiss* definitely fucked up at first but both seme and uke's lives are sad af. Seme is actually a good guy after read: I knew the manga would be different from the movie in some parts, but they are actually good!! I think I like this story better tho, because in the movie seme "murdered" his lover but in here it's his family, and it adds up better since it's psychological. hot smut, tho it was twisted no doubt about it.

HOLY SHIT. This is fucking messed up but it's the type to break your heart. Other psychological mangas only traumatize you or make me mad but this... holy shit I mean it's not even a new concept to me but it's the way everything was illustrated and told that it still managed to shake me. It was fucking dark, I thought the megane and the uke are gonna end up but no. I don't believe this is completed wtf it just ended on that??? I wanted to see if Roku did really recover from PTSD, and also that megane's story too. There's a lot of missing things on this and it's giving me goosebumps. I hope this has a sequel or things get continued because it's gonna give me nightmares. Plus, Kei's affair with their stepdad, please I want to have that asshole arrested. Okay, let's say Kei seduced him but he was in the right mind to refuse him. And someone said this in the comments, that it could be Kei who's just pretending to be Riku. I think that could be possible too, though it's more likely that it was Riku himself. He wasn't gay in the first place, but because he saw his brother doing "that", and they have the same face I guess he believes he's like that too. This is really interesting. It's less graphic compared to other psychological bl but it's substance is definitely a great amount. There were missing pages and sometimes it's confusing because Kei and Roku's pov transitions too suddenly but it was really good. Wish this continues.

for some reason I didn't really hate it. or maybe I just read it while I'm mentally fucked up?? so basically uke's friend/first love dies and he has this hobby to visit his friend's graveyard. seme likes him and they become lovers but then seme's dark tone show- abusive, violent, highkey jealous. When he fucked uke in that graveyard I can't- I was also pissed when he hit uke's concerned friend with a stick. How I wish uke just stabbed him instead of forgiving him. Yeah, it's a psychological manga alright. Not surprised anymore. P.S. that last story was actually hilarious to me lol

not at me reading this while I still haven't seen the anime or real manga xD this is so fucked up. seme is obsessed with his brother and killed his fiancee, and he also raped, drugged and locked up uke who was supposedly working with him but didn't know about his psychothic tendencies. hot and fucked up, though I'm so confused. I need to read the manga

MC IS A PSYCHO DGSHHSHSYS THIS IS GORY AND A BIT SCARY BUT I AM READING IT YES HIROKI IS AN IKEMEN SO

woah that escalated darkly
