Until you educate yourself as to the definition of "pedophile," maybe shut it.

Stop watching.

The difference in opinions has to do with your self-righteous, black/white moralizing.
And no, Kanda absolutely could NOT have done all this without having sex with him. Having sex with each other was a huge part of de-stigmatizing their same-sex desires, for both of them.
They are handling this latest phase of their relationship with admirable maturity and lack of drama. You're pissed because they aren't traumatizing each other.
Now, THAT'S sad.

You're yet another Western female who presumes to pontificate about how gay men should handle their relationships, despite the impossibility of your having any life experience in the area.

For god's sake, let it go. Yoichi didn't take advantage of Akira, he may have saved his life.
Plus...I think you like harping on this issue, probably because you're turned on by its forbidden nature.

Ep. 7:
Wouldn't it have been simpler just to keep banging the hot tutor? :D

This show is nothing groundbreaking, but it's good enough, with some touching moments.
Handsome leads and good acting, too.

Me too.

Don't concern yourself with who does or doesn't agree with your life choices.
It's your life, not theirs. :)

lol

"To dissect" implies a careful taking apart and analysis of a multifaceted object/thing. Your article doesn't have facets; it has flaws, and I listed them about 15 comments above.
In response, you've put far more energy into defending your writing than you put into the writing itself.

I suggested DMing me ONE article, your "next" one.
Somehow, that one article became "all my future writing/translations" in your head.
(That's not a bad idea, actually.)
I also clearly stated the reason: "I'll play editor and help you out."
Are you familiar with the expression, "tongue in cheek?"
Guess not.

Anyone reading our exchange knows who's "ranting" here. :)
One might even say you're embarrassing yourself.

As for my comments critical of Lily Malice and your articles, I guess you overlooked the dozens of other members who regularly post similar comments. Convenient!

Such refreshingly human characters, with flaws and contradictions, as IRL.

Indeed.

Your tactic of pretending people who strongly take issue with you are throwing "senseless tantrums" isn't fooling anyone, "darling."

If you're one of the people here "approving" what gets published on MDL, it's clear where the core problem lies.

You know what's "creepy?"
Thinking that DM-ing someone on a site where people DM each other all the time is creepy.

Again, put some of the effort you've invested into this back-and-forth with me into upping your "writing" game. As a "Community Manager," I'd think you'd take a little pride in your work.

Or, at least he had asked that this or that kind gesture be made toward his beloved on his behalf. :P

So Netizens invaded the privacy of this couple and MDL dutifully rewards them by sharing the images online. Got it.

I don't think we're meant to "understand" Dong Man, at least not yet.

Bingo.
If he were as practical-minded as commenter above thinks he should be, this show wouldn't exist.

Wow.
You sound about as deep as a flat sheet of paper.

So, he's not allowed to have feelings?

Better than MM.

Episode 2:
My gosh, I am falling deeply in love with this show.
It has grabbed me by that sweet spot right between my heart and my gut, where my soul hangs out.

In Dong Man, Koo Kyo Hwan has created one of the most original characters I've encountered, as frustrating as he is charming; an asshole who's also an angel. I adore him.
I hope to see KKH win awards for this performance.

Go Youn Jung is killing it, too. Her character was instantly likable, despite her obvious depression and low affect. And...if that's a nose job, it's one of the best I've ever seen. Her nose remains the prominent feature of her face, not some barely visible, Manhwa drawing afterthought.

I was totally hating the b****h who put up the sign on her restaurant door, until she let her hubby have it later at home. The script is doing a lot of that...giving shades of gray where black/white would have been the easy option.

One caveat: Dong Man and GYJ's character meetings at the train gate feel WAY too much likee reruns of the many similar scenes from My Mister.

I'm pissed at Netflix for releasing this drip by drip, but the truth is, they likely did me a favor. Had all eps dropped at once, I'd have binged it and gotten nothing else done the last couple of days.

Episode 6:
Could easily end up being one of the top Main couple/Second couple sets in BL history. :)
All those handsome faces and tanned skin...yikes.
And, even though it was aborted too early, the SC's spicy scene was near-epic.
Great smooching.

Exceptionally good BL.

And here you are, replying again.
And, in your replies, using the same "if I state it, it must be true" style as in your amateur, AI-written thing above.

Suggestion: Put the effort you're making, saucily pretending I'm the problem, into improving the quality of your "articles."
Start with sourcing, links, and attribution.
Don't make shit up and expect readers to believe it, though most do.
Feel free to DM your next piece to me ahead of posting it. I'll play editor and help you out.

Or, you can keep looking to Lily Malice as your example and mentor.
We see how well that's going...
