Usotsuki wa Dareda

This is exactly the type of story that makes the LGBT community think BL is a genre made by straight women for straight women to fetishize gay men. There are so many tropes, but not in a good way:
1. the seme Hiromu is rude, aggressive, and overall a jerk, but the uke Ichita still loves him for some inexplicable reason
2. Ichita is spineless and bends over backwards to please Hiromu even though Hiromu is in the wrong
3. the third wheel Jin gets his feelings played with, but he takes it like a champ because he's a better character than Hiromu
4. Ichita and Hiromu both have the communication skills of 13yos, leading to unnecessary misunderstandings and melodrama
4. Hiromu is rough with and at times scares Ichita bc no BL is complete without dubious consent 🙄
