it’s not a manga but the story I always find myself going back to is the webtoon underprin, pretty much every character is keeping secrets from the others and the reader has zero idea what’s going on until basically the last 10 chapters, i definitely recommend checking it out for anyone who’s interested!   1 reply

I think I heard something about a lack of emotions (sorta like apathyI think?) in people with psychopath (forgot which disorder it was specifically) type things, is that true at all and do you notice it with him?   1 reply

I don't have the objective analysis to really decided on a single perfect series but I always find myself coming back to Natsume's Book of Friends. I've always loved stories where characters had to balance a regular life and a hidden supernatural one which was what got me interested in the first place and the series has the perfect melancholic vibe......   reply

first ones that come to mind are nurarihyon no mago, natsume’s book of friends, the magic in this other world is too far behind, and i am their catships’ catservant. all very good and all wildly different genres.   1 reply

Yep! I’m pretty comfortable recommending the site to friends I trust, never telling them my account tho.   reply

It could be because of the idea of women not being able to enjoy sex or climax. Depending on the man you ask of course, some of them (I’d like to hope just a vocal minority) are just straight up convinced women can’t climax and don’t derive pleasure from sex despite that being very much false. It reminds me of a twitter(?) post that saw one t......   1 reply

I’d say talk to her first, there’s nothing inherently wrong with sex but if she’ll willingly helping people cheat then that’s a whole other thing. Maybe ask if she knew the guy had a girlfriend at the time and let her know you’re worried about her. If negotiations break down though there’s nothing wrong with dropping her either. I’d s......   reply

I get being scared of the dark but being afraid that your dog is gonna just stand up and kill you doesn’t sound normal. If this fear has impacted your daily life at all I think you should maybe go see a therapist? It’s for the most part just a guess though, i’m no expert.   1 reply

I contemplate suicide a fair bit and struggle with existential crisis’s as well. When I think it’s getting too bad I turn on loud music and do something mindless, it probably isn’t the best coping method and is definitely bad for my ears in the long run but it helps take my mind off things.   2 reply

Coffee with heavy cream! if it’s not the most common order though lol   reply

You’re not a pedo if you’re attracted to characters your own age, it becomes a problem if your preferences don’t grow with you ex. if you’re still into the same stuff in 5 years. Also I would recommend you chill with the porn at your age it’s not super healthy, although I can’t really make you.   reply

Just a general feeling of wanting to die. To be clear, this is not wanting to commit suicide but like, really really hoping that some guy decides to run a red while you’re crossing the street, or maybe suddenly having a heart attack and perishing. I never self harmed or attempted or anything I just always thought it’d be better if by some coinc......   reply

probably somewhere around 36 hours? i think i made it to 48 with only a half hour nap around the 30 mark too tho so i could probably do it again if i tried?   reply

Nothing wrong with preferences, the transphobia comes in when they start saying shit like “I only date REAL men/women” which implies that trans people are fake or lesser than cis people.   reply

this just sounds like the plot of 'she's the man' lol   1 reply

I haven’t written anything myself so I don’t have any proper tips but the way you described the kind of book you want to write reminded me of ‘The Bluest Eye’ by Toni Morrison so it might be worth a read to see how other authors did a dark story like that.   reply
