Takemiya Jin's ABO? I DIG!!!

every page felt like a punch to the face but that wont stop me from reading the sequel

ABO themes sure are taking off lol. idk if i really like it, but takemiya jin is hard to pass up.

omg again with alpha and omega bs i don't get it

what do ppl find appealing in this sort if stuff

why is this nonsense bleeding into yuri

did.....Japan finally discover omegaverse stuff? Is that why there's more of it coming out now?

What a great fit of author and genre! I'm excited for more!

why is this nonsense bleeding into yuri

we live in hell

Everyone else: why the F@#k is there ABO?!
Me: Why the F@#k was her private medical information on the floor?!

I GENERALLY find ABO stuff icky, but this was OK.

there’s a lot more people hating on ABO than I thought, I personally love it. Bonded by hormones, claimed by marks, their mating cycle, makes really good smut. The chances for poly are lower as well since Alphas are so possessive. I like this new trend

I still struggle to find the appeal of the ABO universe. I know it's common in fanfiction but now it's appearing in mangas and manhuas as well. Is it because it's basically porn with little to no plot and people surrendering to their primal instincts?

I'd never heard of this ABO stuff before. I find the concept of genetic ubermensch* who are natural leaders stupid and offensive, so I can understand why it would be widespread on the internet. I like a lot of Takemiya Jin's stuff, but, sigh, it doesn't really surprise me she'd get into something like this. Hard nope for me, I like her stuff, but I don't like it THAT much.

*Yes, yes, some of the "mensch" are female. Doesn't change the concept.

Seems like a spike of omegaverse content lately... this one seems cute though, at least.

I feel like dynasty went from 0 ABO to like 3 or 4 different ABO series in just a couple months. What is happening

I feel like what generally appeals to me about ABO is that even though you have these common stereotypes that each role is supposed to fill, most well-written ABO fics buck that trend and depict the stereotypes as conditioned by society rather than the rule. And you sometimes have more nuanced protagonists who are in conflict with what society expects them to do in regards to their given role and what they actually feel, which is interesting to me as a reader

But also a lot of ABO is bogged down by bad writing and "whoops, biology ate your consent" that I completely understand when people are super put off by it

Well, at least Takemiya Jin hasn't made an NFT or anything. So… It could be worse.

Omegaverse?

So she have no dick

Ok, no babies, that doesn't mean they can't try to mate, it doesn't hurt to try.

Though I feel like the twist is that the protag is gonna have something physically different so she can impregnate vice-pres.

Either way, the concept of soulmates is romantic and the release of pheromones making them unable to resist is amazing, so both together are even more. There was a yuri anime exploring both of those in 2017.

This might be the first omegaverse without much of sxx and r9apwe and just pure love.

I admit being extremely biased in favor of Takemiya Jin's work, so while the premise admittedly still weirds me out, I am willing to approach this one like I would a Big Idea Sci-Fi: how would human interactions and society change if X happened? In this case, X = this whole ABO stuff...

There might be a nice story here but I was immediately repelled from the story by the completely straight-faced explanation that the author has chosen to set their story in a world where some people are inherently biologically superior.

That had me shrinking back like a vampire at the sight of a cross.

Alphas and Omegas really aren't superior, just different.

ABO is mainly used as an attempt to separate gender and sex more explicitly than our real society does. Female Alphas being women who are sexually male, and male Omegas being men who are sexually female.

On top of that premise, add in animal mating stuff because furry stuff is always wildly popular (though it is much less prevelant in Yuri honestly), and that's the Omegaverse.
