Well... I was not expecting the "Landmine" to be the less concerning of the two. Jesus the backstory of the influencer gal has some dark implications.

If you are here reading the comments because of the yuri tag then I suggest to move to another series, unless you like the old trend of men hurting straight women and masking it with some panels of supposed yuri. For toxic yuri relationships, choose ones not written by men and not published under the shonen audience tag. But if you're here for different reasons then it may be for you.

Thanks for sharing. After reading the first two chapters, I feel it that the yuri will be just accessory.

hnh... as of chapter 2 it certainly appears that both of the leads are abuse survivors, one of them still actively going through it... this MIGHT be an instance of them supporting each other through processing mutual trauma, or it might be lurid misery porn, not sure yet.

EDIT: Hoo boy... well that certainly got grim, but the series seems to be making a pretty definitive statement that abusers should fuck off and also die, so I think the story is ultimately about the women who have suffered shall have vindication and pull through in the end, I just hope the brutalization is going to be much less of a thing from here on.

Wait... Shounen? On an another website this was labeled with Josei.

When I wrote that post it was labelled as shonen in both places (here and Manga Updates), for some reason now there's no demographic tag on Mangadex and there has changed to Josei, which doesn't make much sense anyway (style-wise everything but the FML had a shonen style and the FML a shoujo look, pretty inconsistent). About the actual tags, they're completely made up, as the Japanese publisher Comic Days doesn't add any, and if I look at the titles suggested as "same genre" there's a mix of gore, violence and darkness. And regarding the publisher, there's no clear line about what they sell but all falls under that darkness/edgyness (hence why someone labelled it as shonen) with all of them with some sort of violence. And since the pages don't show their sources except Mangadex, they're just opinionated by the person who made the entry. The only tags I would leave are the author's name, the gore and sexual violence red flags ones and the psychological tag for Mangadex.

Well, that publisher is weird then.

I kinda felt that way too at first but chapter 4 definitely makes it look like there’s actually more to it now. If you feel like it I definitely suggest you read it and form your own opinion tho. I can really just speak for myself

I like dark stuff with some added yuri! The assistant manager seems sus, wonder if she was also involved in the abuse the guy was doing. Hope that guy at the end of ch.5 isn't about to cause some trouble.

Ngl this looks like one of those series with a bad ending. The author previously wrote a het series with crazy start, but a good and sweet ending.

That being said alot of these het artist that draw yuri generally don't give a fuck about giving it a good ending and just do whatever the fuck. Literal terrorism. Hope it doesn't happen with this one though fingers crossed!

y'all making some fucking WILD assumptions lmao. This author's gender isn't known, their name is gender neutral, it's published by a generalist non-demographic site, and has demonstrated zero of the supposed qualities attributed to it here. I'd like to think that yuri fans searching the tag have more than two brain cells to scrape together and can thus read the other tags and figure out if this is the kind of thing they want to read or not.
What the hell "old trend" is this post even referring to, since when was "men hurting straight women and masking it with some panels of supposed yuri" a trend??? That sounds like the most extreme bad faith description of Utena I've heard people make but it's certainly not a COMMON thing.

Truth hurts, right? :smug:
Enjoy your stay (on my ignore list).

The "truth" that doesn't actually describe this manga does indeed hurt, because this author doesn't deserve to be smeared like that. The author is not known to be a man, it's obviously not a shounen manga, the main characters are obviously not straight, and the series is not about depicting abuse. It's a manga about wlw abuse survivors learning to live in freedom, drawn in a shojosei art style.

One of the most amazing yuris ever

Women are allowed to be feminine but as a self expression, not as some man's 'product'

This was definitely written by a sexual abuse survivor/someone who is very familiar with the topic
