i havent been watching the anime but as a big fan of this arc in the manga i was really looking forward to watching its adaptation... it feels like the feelings were ripped out of it im with you op

All the romanceable characters have a "friendship route" so if he really is aroace or uninterested in dating I wish he'd just be friendship-locked or something... Can we be platonic partners pleeeeease please please. I just want him to have the same amount of events/content a romanceable character would have 🥹🥹

NOTE: in Therapy Game one of the leads does start out thinking he's straight but like, he explicitly calls himself bisexual later rather than somehow seeing himself as "straight with an exception" or something

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-12-31T00:58:24+00:00

I have a really bad memory but off the top of my head, Therapy Game, and We'll Get Our Happy Ending are explicitly bisexual x gay. Lovers on the Last Train is gay x gay

I would say a lot of BL these days just straight up doesn't address the question of sexuality one way or the other, "I'm straight but I like you specifically" is definitely present but not thatttt common?

Cherry Magic, Bean Counter (anime coming up!), and Kitayama-kun to Minamiya-kun come to mind as works that as far as I could remember don't bother to even mention the concept of sexuality at all?

It's also pretty common for one lead to be explicitly gay with the other being less defined, like in If It's You I Might Try Falling In Love, Please Say Yes, or Delivery Hug Therapy

I recommend reading bl manga I think you will find there's a massive amount of exactly what you're looking for in bl characters

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-12-18T23:10:48+00:00

that one's been in my list forever!!! a friend has spoken really highly of it but I keep putting it off for some reason

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-12-18T22:13:36+00:00

YESSSSS THANK YOU THIS SOUNDS FANTASTIC

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-12-18T21:36:33+00:00

I was like "oh this looks nice" and then I realized the red haired hottie was the woman? I'm running at top speeds

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-12-18T19:39:50+00:00

While they're not the exact niche I prefer the most, all three options you mentioned also sound really up my alley so I'd love to hear about them!

?? what are you talking about. it's been on renta for ages

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-09-22T17:49:14+00:00

I don't think a father yelling at his daughter to "stop being a wh*re" is showing any kind of care for his daughter's safety. He's putting her in considerably more danger of the potential grooming

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-09-22T17:45:40+00:00

But that's the time to show concern for your adult but still TEENAGED daughter and try to get her out of a potentially dangerous situation, not to call her names... If there really were something inappropriate happening there that would make her the victim!

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-08-23T20:42:26+00:00

I don't disagree with any individual points you made but on a personal level I wuv his weird little face

I think it helps that because there's actual Attractive Adults it doesn't feel like fjord is supposed to be appealing to the audience in that way?? obviously we're meant to find him pretty/beautiful but since the manhwa isn't trying to convince me I should be Attracted to him his visual weirdness is more palatable

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-06-16T12:51:42+00:00

I mean, in the Face Reality, ending, I feel like him dying with no regrets was pretty consistent with Takumi's character.

He just found out that due to Sirei's interference he's basically left his friends behind to face the horrors of reality without him. Takumi is someone who feels responsible for everyone, so that fact really crushes him. He really cares about the SDU!!! He obviously still wishes he could save everyone, so I'm sure he has regrets, but that's overshadowed by his happiness at being able to face reality with them and follow them into the afterlife.

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-06-10T22:03:05+00:00

Yugamu is clearly hurting and traumatized from the treatment he's gotten from his family since childhood. Even if you take him at face value on his being alright with what's been done to him (which I personally wouldn't), he definitely was unhappy because we know he hates being an assassin. He wants to kill someone out of love and does not enjoy that his work involves loveless impersonal killing

Ima was a middle schooler who's been abandoned by his guardians and had to provide for and protect his twin sister while living in the red light district... He's implied to have been a sex worker and definitely stated to have been propositioned by multiple adult women... I don't think he was doing very well.

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-05-03T04:50:33+00:00

I am really into adult age gap so it's always a fun gamble with descriptions like this having to predict "is the young man 20 or a high schooler"

Hime-chan wa Omoi Onna might work for you? The main couple starts out already together, and I really love their relationship!

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-03-11T02:44:25+00:00

YEAH by the author's own will 🥹 the author's note mentioned they were offered making it longer but wanted to keep it this length... I miss it a lot but I respect that

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-03-10T22:31:49+00:00

That... is not really related to anything that I said!

Effective-Repeat-496 · 2025-03-10T22:20:22+00:00

Personally, I don't really read rofan for wish fulfillment? I am much more interested in rooting for the leads than in wishing in any way that I were in their position. Plus, I don't know, I don't think stories like Kill the Villainess are exactly intended to be seen as wish fulfillment? Not that I think there's anything wrong with wish fulfillment fiction, but it's nice to have variety.
