Bike's manga / #brother-complex(2)

Damn. There’s something that holds me off from rating it five stars (I believe it’s mainly the pacing towards the latter half of the manhwa. Also the relationship feels less…compelling, I guess after a certain point?), but that doesn’t mean that it’s bad at all. I really enjoyed it.

Started CH. 45. Goddamnit I got really invested but I realized this series ain't even done yet so I'm putting it on hold now before I destroy myself. Brother gets roped into a male strip club and proceeds to get entangled with blondie. Everyone's in here because of problems, whether debt or other issues (got a bit of a found family vibe, tbh). Club itself is a subversion of gender roles---males catering to females with the agency to spend their money. Touches upon adult entertainment life, which pleasantly surprised me. Apparently third season started, and where it's at right now is...not great, so I'm taking a pause now. --- Also not going to lie, I got Dio and Iida vibes from the main pair. Besides that, enjoying the dynamic. --- Also is it just me or am I getting massive brother complex vibes from the main antagonist? Specifically "Walk on Water" kind of brocon.
