   Being a beloved, adored uke is a job; loving the seme is life. My column, which went on hiatus in April 2024, featured a cultivation novel where the uke was the main seme, but the perspective was changed to uke [laughing emoji][laughing emoji]. Someone in the comments asked who the uke was, and I replied that I didn't expect it to be a seme-centric story. I guess the uke's popularity in this novel was too good, and since it was started in July 2024, there's absolutely no scamming involved.

   Uh, I don't understand. The synopsis describes the bottom as beautiful and capable of turning countless straight men gay, but the main text only highlights the top's irresistible charm. The bottom is constantly being spread rumors on forums that he secretly loves and clings to the top, and a bunch of supporting characters like the top... Even the bottom's former roommate, a supporting character, immediately assumes he's seducing the top the moment she sees him. It's ridiculous. Aren't they all popular figures? What's the point of treating the bottom like everyone hates him? He gets criticized just for getting too close to the top; it's so frustrating to read. The top is also incredibly arrogant.

   I have absolutely no liking for this seme (top). The uke (bottom) is either a cat demon or a celebrity. The seme takes the uke home to raise him, but the uke has something to do and runs back to his manager's house. The seme then relentlessly tries to snatch the cat (uke) back. The manager, too, sells the uke for money. The seme initially thought the uke was a stray, but when the uke returned to his manager's house and found out he had an owner, he still insisted on taking him, demanding a price... Acting like a lord.

   This is an incredibly frustrating and insane storyline. The seme, a complete idiot, transferred to the uke's class in middle school. Because of his incredibly low emotional intelligence, he was bullied by everyone, like a bot. The uke kindly befriended him, but one day the seme said that the uke walking with him made him feel strange and awkward, and told the uke not to bother him. Later, the uke finally forgot about it, but in college, he started playing online games and his romantic partner was the seme again, so the seme insisted on forcibly binding them together. Later, when the uke brought up the middle school incident, the seme said that he didn't hate the uke; in fact, he really liked him back then. He said that the uke was willing to play with him despite all the bullying, but the uke might get punished for playing with him, so he said those things to protect the uke [laughing and crying emoji]. Seriously, what a classic case! I was doing it all for your own good. This kid is also the uke's pet parrot in the game, who can turn into a human. The uke had already broken ties with his family by coming out, but because of this kid, his family was even angrier, turning coming out into a matter of principle, and he was even misunderstood by his family for being a liar. The protagonist is so annoying; he cries whenever the uke isn't with the seme. I'm at my wit's end [crack]. It's especially weird, and the seme is constantly stalking the uke, hacking into his game account, and spying on his social media to deduce his game account and home address. It's terrifying... I only read the four or five-star reviews before reading the main text, no wonder there were no warnings. You're the kind of person who wouldn't skip this free chapter! [Thumbs up]

   The plot of chapter 20 is very bizarre. It keeps focusing on the protagonist's crush on an adult supporting character, and the supporting character gets a lot of attention.

The uke is practically just a decoration. Also, in Chapter Six, someone asked if there would be a side couple, and the author replied that there would be almost none. Clicking on the topic means they're already preparing to write a side couple extra chapter 😂. Looking at other posts in the author's column, the synopsis doesn't mention side couples, but the comments and ratings all seem to indicate them.

It's laughable that he has the nerve to say that. This guy is a bit hypocritical, acting righteously to netizens but ignoring the rumors spread by his fellow students in real life. However, he later realizes he was wrong, so putting aside the earlier points, it's a bit of a letdown.

    I watched this during the MMR era. The seme (top) is a self-conquering character, but I'm no longer a fan of teenage seme characters. Some seme characters are pampered by their uke (bottom), but the uke has a very charming older brother vibe that's quite appealing.

    The seme is like a reincarnation of Pigsy, so slick and oily; his pursuit of the uke is like something out of an adult film.

    The later episodes became increasingly weak, and the update frequency was also problematic. It completely exhausted me. I'm giving an extra star for the shou (bottom/shoulder), Xixi is cute.

    The quality was high, but the writing style was too plain, so I couldn't finish it. The author's writing skills are limited; they just keep using the same few adjectives. Also, at 450,000 words, it felt a bit too long and tiring to read.

    The ending was rushed and quite disappointing, but I really love the protagonist, so I'm leaving an extra star. Updates haven't been very consistent either.

    It's so frustrating, I can't see any satisfaction. The synopsis describes him as a charming and popular character, but on set he gets groped and accused of being arrogant. The seme (dominant partner) doesn't say a word, the uke has close friends who are jealous, and the seme has a childhood friend, but when the uke brings it up, the seme says it's different. If it's supposed to be a case of starting with a sullen tone and then building up to a climax, I can't see what happens next; I'm already completely overwhelmed by the frustration. The free chapters have a lot of arguments between the uke and seme, I've already quit.

    I like the protagonist's cool and aloof demeanor, and the romance is quite sweet. However, there are quite a few uncorrected typos, and a male supporting character who likes the protagonist ends up sleeping with the protagonist's friend. I don't really like the balanced distribution of the secondary couple; it's not a long story, but it feels very strange. Also, some readers have commented on reversed pairings. Readers who are interested or might be offended should proceed with caution.
