Bike's manga / #MMORPG(5)

Dropped. Not into stalker + manipulative MLs

GOD D*MM this was wholesome. It’s just boys being boys, very wholesome.

Edit: tried getting back into it, but I couldn’t get through the chapter. I’m assuming it gets better. Don’t know. As of CH 64. tl;dr I liked their initial in-game interactions--quippy, quick, and funny. Once they met IRL, they became frustrating as a pair. I'm annoyed with them now. But maybe it's because I'm not fit for these catfishing MMORPG manhwas. --- Liked it at first, but as soon as they met in real life, I slowly began to hate them. Not a fan of the tropes that they slot into. The MC is "straight," a frustrating tsundere character who either runs away or physically attacks the ML every time he advances on him. He denies any semblance of reciprocating feelings because of the fact that he's "straight," but he never rejects the man outright. He gets jealous and the like, but refuses to admit that he likes him. If the ML were anyone else but Heejae, I'm sure that they would quit by now. The back-and-forth" that the two have with each other is frustrating to me, rather than endearing. - I'm sure it was all for comedic effect, but I really couldn't vibe with it. In-game is one thing. Having it also IRL is another. The ML "turned gay/bi" for the MC, and now he has to "take responsibility." He is irrationally persistent and possessive over the MC, who doesn't even give him the light of day. He is insane for insistently pushing into the MC's boundaries, using the netkama incident to get what he wants. Getting his house passcode, forcibly living in his room -- he does what no rational man would do and acts like a leech onto this man's life. I hate how they're so possessive/jealous over each other -- but I guess that's why they deserve each other. I can't stand them. --- Edit: CH64. Things are changing now, I think? I'm just here for the ride.

This manga’s such a hoot. Chapter 26 nearly broke me Cosmic Cat Scans did a really good job at translating this series (makes me reluctant for if/when the official TL comes out ;-;)

Chapter 12 --- Same author as Netkama Punch. I ended up not really vibing with the pairing in that series, I wonder if it'll be different here? Either way, I'm always down for MMORPGs, so here I am. I clicked because I saw that the fan translation team for Neighbor Guild Member was also working on this one. --- I'm not a friend of the jealous girl trope. Especially when the series doesn't have many girls to begin with. Just my preference, though. Not a big fan of the catfishing trope in general. Might be a problem for me reading this series haha
