Kyojinzoku no Hanayome (original) (raw)

seeing the reviews are only a 10 and 1s, i thought i'd give the middle man review! Titan's Bride is a very basic BL/yaoi and if you don't like that, you can shrug it off. TL;DR is it's like reading a multipart hentai doujinshi. there's a basic setting and they have sex because of it. (that's really it)

the story is very coincidental - as BLs often are. coincidentally, Kouichi was summoned another world. coincidentally, he gets a boyfriend who loves him unconditionally. coincidentally, he eats something poisonous and needs a cure but it's not lethal he's just horny. coincidentally, ..... you get the picture.

since ch... 1 Kouichi gets feelings for Caius and obv it's mutual. they have a really nice relationship overall, but i'm biased towards love at first sight/soulmate kind of settings LOL. their feelings getting stronger for each other is nice to see but there's no realism (again, as BLs do).

the art is great and the sex scenes are hot but after reading all the chapters there were, nothing of the story grabbed me. i caught up and i'm dropping it; i won't look this up in the future for updates bc 🤷 it's just porn.

CONSENT: the first time Caius gets it on with Kouichi is non-con. he doesn't ask for permission and while Kouichi protests the other guy doesn't stop and he gets a BJ. before penetration Kouichi starts crying and Caius is like oh woop my bad! and they talk about it. later, in the second arc (?? the poison problem, anyhow) there's a scene with Kouichi and a beastman (there's furries!) that's presented as non-con. it's later retconned so the author can add the beastman-kun to the character roster, BUT the scene itself plays out like a sexual assault. (no penetration here either but an attempt.) in the latest chapters (50 and so) there's a slime monster that assaults Kouichi twice. first is presented as a real threat (what's this slime and what's it doing to my wife?!) and the second time is... egh, presented as a "no it's ok that you don't want it, the slime just wants to make you come :) it's not cheating either. it doesn't think of it as sex". meanwhile Kouichi is going "no" very clearly. this made me the most uncomfortable out of them.

KINKS: let's agree it's just porn to be porn. besides the obvious height difference/size kink, there's furries/anthro people, future/hinted mpreg, and hentai doujin slimes. for a BL i'd deal with one in a series but All Four This Far is just dirty to be dirty.

watched 1 ep of the anime and the pacing sucked, so if you're interested in one read the manga.
