Yeah, I'm not too sure about that. Street art is a form of freedom for art. The city, or even the world is your canvas.

Here, she seems free spirited, but she's still a teacher and just goads the MC into doing boring stuff (draw on canvas, draw the human body).

So, while the fact that she's naked is supposed to show that she's wild, in the end, it's still all about getting in line and do what society expects of you.

Exactly, nothing more irritating than to read something that obviously want to be "unconventional" while doing it in the most conventional way. Seriously, there was a good base concept with the delinquent student and "alternative" teacher (sadly, she really isn't) but the execution is just not there.

Maybe I'm wrong and the teacher will learn along the student among other thing and overall get better, but considering the start and the track record with these, I'm not holding my breath.

Oof, that one look like it's gonna be some pseudo-subversive shit. Seriously, the whole "do your graffiti on a canvas" is already missing a massive point of what street art is about and the way the teacher is presented, I really doubt she's meant to be in the wrong. Which doesn't bode well for the other aspect of the story, especially if it meant to be a student-teacher thing.

Let my morbid curiosity win and damn, that was bad.

Like, not only it's barely "ntr" since the two girl weren't even together to begin with and the MC just wanted a "way out" because she thought the other was straight or something but even the "depressing as fuck" part feel forced since the "madona" objective just feel idiotic and forced.

But hey, that just the trend of "ntr" being complete utter shit anytime it appear. Seriously, the porn is bad enough with the fixation on rape and other creepy BS that seem taken out of an incel forum (not helped by how much it play that shit straight, even without rape), it's made worse when people tries to use it to make actual drama. It just scream desperate try hard that had no better idea for their "drama". Or just anything really, even when it's used as a joke like in Okiku-san, you can feel the humour would have been better without it.

Again, it's just beyond baffling how bad that genre is, no matter how it's used. And sorry, I just needed to vent into the void after being reminded of all that shit.

As others said, the whole pseudo-incest bit, and the fact the guy is underage, leave a bad taste and is frankly frustrating (if it goes into romance that is). Seriously, considering the BS excuse made to have him live with her, having the guy be a student/worker in his late teen/early twenties be her roommate/something similar would have worked just as well, keeping more than enough room for the same type of drama, especially seeing how much it goes into the sexism of the MC workplace.

Really feel like quite a few elements could have been reworked and would have resulted in a better, more interesting setup (be it romantic or no).

@FluffyCow @kormi Yeah, saying it's about "a lover being stolen away" doesn't quite cover the utter idiocy and tastelessness of that genre considering the ""stealing"" happen because the lover get raped in some form and end up "liking it" and/or some massive incel-like BS. Really hard to describe how much that genre reek of the most desperate edgy try-hard shit possible.

Yeah, this kind of story is just chef kiss

Kinda dark without being needlessly edgy, funny and great interaction.

Just really solid.

@Norainhere Isn't Kanako like Sanae's mom so... Maybe Hecatia for her? Or Kasen/Byakuren/other?

It's kinda funny (and somewhat irritating) to see people whining about this being "nonsense" or "written like a caricature of a negative stereotype of a feminist tract" when frankly, like it's already been mentioned and explained, it's still miles and miles better than shit like Rising of the Shield Hero with it's false rape accusation BS, "slave child turned slave bride" with the author bending themselves over to keep justify keeping the character a slave and whatnot. Or Goblin Slayer with it's "evil race of rapist" (that like Terraformars, may cause some iffy real life parallels).

And let's not mention Redo of Healer or similar shit like ntr (since I saw someone mention it), because oh boy that's a whole mall sized can of worms.

Again, like it's been pointed out, the "caricature" of the sexist man isn't even that unrealistic like the "but women wouldn't wear bikini armour even in that situation" complain, when again, it's been pointed out that women can be forced to wear high heels even when it's dangerous. There nothing quite as hilarious and infuriating (not to mention speak volumes about how that shit is deeply normalised) than seeing a barely exaggerated depiction of sexism decried by people as "unrealistic", even more when the most "absurd" elements, like the bikini armour, still has real life parallel.

This kind of story really just highlight how works like RotSH and co are insanely bad, immature and childish and most importantly: conventional and dull as fuck (while thinking they're the opposite) in the worst way possible ultimately.

And show how much more interesting they could be if they had any understanding of actual injustice/systemic discrimination.

^I've only seen a very small number (only one I can really recall) of "type 1" where there was no coercion whatsoever and it was as stupid and bad. "Type 3" seem to make up 99.999% of the genre (and if "type 2" is "start with rape and become """"consentual""", I'm just going to say no)
Never read a single one that actually had any kind of effect other than deep irritation that whatever I was reading would have been better if it wasn't NTR.
Worse, feel like it fucked how both cuckolding (as in the actual kink) and swinging are seen in the NSFW world. I have seen all in all 1 that was actual swinging and none of the former (seen two something somewhat approaching it, ended with the couple going "never again" and I really can't help but think "what is this weak shit?").
Sorry for the rant but it's just amazing how every single aspect of that genre is just simply bad, even for porn. Particularly when some are actually using it unironically to make actual drama that just fail because of the inherent stupidity of the genre.

Why is every time I see something with "NTR" it feel like the term isn't used well like for netsuzou trap: it's just messy relationships, cheating and a girl who's realizing she's into girls. Meaning there not much actual "stealing".
Or it's so fucking stupid (like how the "stealing" is nearly always just rape, which is frankly just weird to say the least) it just fail at what it attempt to do, even when there an effort to not be off-the-wall bonkers?
It just feel like that genre is a text book example of something people do just for clout, because they're edgy try hard and/or can't do anything better. It baffle me to no end.

Don't mind me, I'm the poor guy sad to see the lack of Miko/tojiko stuff despite the two historical basis being married.

YES! I WANT MORE LIKE THIS!!

Seriously, I crave for actual eldritch romance between something inhuman and a human, but without becoming something horrific, at least in the usual sense but still being kinda twisted in a wholesome way.

Oh no this ship is back...

Weird way to be joyful...

Hey, Dunwich Horrors don't just come out of thin air y'know? (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)

They kinda do, though?

Aw yeah, saw this on twitter and knew it would be good, dark Itou best Itou.

sometime you just wondering just how much of the artist's art is just purely art, anh how much is the artist herself

Quite famously there's a word for someone with such musings: "A fool".

That's, unfortunately, a legitimate question.

Just look at authors like Matzneff.

It can be quite disturbing to learn that what you read isn't just a fantasy but what the author actually did or want to do.

There is no way I can talk about that. I'd just end up destroying our family after we finally got used to live together.

Oof. Considering it can be the very real reasoning why abuse can go unchecked is oof.
