Well yeah, calling it now, the "bug" is because she was destined to marry the Yue Lao himself.

This one lost me when it basically said that LGBT marriages were 'bugs' in the system, and gonna destroy the world.

@ebby i think they meant that people can ONLY marry members of the opposite sex and animals because of the bug. not that they just gained the potential to.
example being how at the beginning the boyfriend suddenly lost interest in his girlfriend and suddenly fell in love with the jogger,

There has been lots of comedy but zero romance in the first ten chapters. I assume at some point that will change, somehow, but it seems less and less likely.

@ebby same, "the gays are destroying the world" isn't the best plotline. Also "LGBT = zoophilia" was a nice touch.

Maybe avoid this story if you're not into hating people for who they love? I know I will.

@doomskull Seriously? There is no reality in which LGBT = zoophilia or where gay marriage destroys the cosmic order. People were deadass being gay in Ancient Rome, Japan, China... The world still progressed though, because we're still around.

Bigots' paradigm = adjusting your perception of reality to avoid cognitive dissonance lmao

@doomskull Uh, you're acting like modernized versions of those civilizations aren't around nowadays. They are. And let me just say this, historically straight marriages in noble houses have done more harm than good. Porphyria anyone?

What I fucking meant, dumbass, is that similar practices have been around for centuries and that those cultures haven't died. The survival of a culture/peoples have no correlation with the existence of homosexuality.

Think about it this way: homosexual relations were frowned upon then and perceived as less important than heterosexual relationships, while child marriage was smiled upon. Bestiality has been frowned upon by many fucking cultures, so don't you dare strawman me with bestiality. Now pedophilia is frowned upon, while homosexual relationships are increasingly accepted. This change in dynamics doesn't really fit your narrative, does it? Because these practices existed in all realities, social tolerance for these practices changed. On another note, since in our reality and current time period, homosexuality has become a more widely accepted practice so we can conclude that anti-LGBT stances are in fact bigoted.

I'd also like to cite that religions are often attributed to as sources for the dissolution of civilizations. Religions are known for their anti-LGBT stance, but my point here is that religion, political economy, and the economy are more strongly tied to the dissolution of civilizations than who people like fucking. Okay, Helen of Troy was most likely an excuse for the invasion of Troy rather than the direct cause.

more positive stuff about religion in case I hurt your feelings: https://ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:4e10abb5-77f4-4db2-aced-bcac5bd74bf2/download_file?file_format=pdf&safe_filename=AGregory_HWP_complete.pdf&type_of_work=Working+paper

People correlate pedophilia and zoophilia to homosexuality so they can have a valid excuse to call it disgusting, so THEIR fantasy that straight relationships are morally superior won't be disrupted. Sorry if you can't read what I link below, my school pays for these sites uwu, I don't feel like arguing anymore so if you really want to debate this, I suggest you email some authors instead.

I'm the real clown for arguing on here, because the CD is too strong 🤡

barring all social discussion, I have to say the synopsis is interesting but I know the story will be shit just cause it's from China.

Loved your post, was very informative! I appreciate it.


But seriously, is this manga homophobic or not? If it is, I'll totally pass it, reading such stuff just pisses me off. Any clarification on that would be nice.

Wow, this was not what I was expecting to find when I went looking for reviews on whether to read this web comic or not.

I’m not mad at it though. 🤣🤣🤣

thought the cover was cute but the art's much different than i expected it to be

it screams 'cheap china art style'

hope that's not too offensive but i've seen countless chinese manhua with this same art style with poor anatomy, coloring, etc that you don't see nearly as often from authors in other countries

story's not amazing but if you like it feel free to read
