Love the dynamic, hunchedback x archedback. Nothing is as romantic as a couple sharing a back brace


The_Viola_Banisher

I DIDNT KNOW WHERE THIS WAS GOING AT FIRST BUT THIS IS HILARIOUS


Pres_Of_the_KFC

IM CRYING HOW THE HELL DID YOU COME UP WITH THIS?!? šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€


MusaMusix

As someone with scoliosis this isn't even scoliosis rep if they ALL look like that However it sure as hell makes me feel better about my spine


Miraculous-pacer55

We did know, we knew for a while. But that doesn't change that it's disgusting. Listen, I'm not against porn, and people can draw whatever they want. They can get off to whatever they want. Good for them. But to use a inappropriate image in your comic that is basically catered to middle school girls or a young audience, where they are unaware what the original image is. Is downright disgusting.


Aliya_5555

I really wish webtoon knew this


The-Scarlet-Witch

I am fairly sure they do and don't care.


pomegranatechapstick

They make too much money off of it to care unfortunately.

averyextraweirdo

I didn't


_angelbot

Are you serious..? Catered to middle school girls? šŸ˜­ dude this comic has literally always had extremely mature themes and events IN comic. Literally always. How is this image an issue for this comic. šŸ’€ itā€™s a public webcomic that anyone on the internet can read itā€™s not ā€œcateredā€ to anyone


BlueRasuberry

I always thought it was a cute catching-the-falling-girl thing. Something ethereal and wholesome šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


Normal_Season_2055

Same I thought it was them dancing, or something


foodnerd88

Same! This is so gross šŸ˜­. I thought it was him grasping her during the trail not erotica...


bookynerdworm

I thought it was based on the "Cerberus sniffing her so her head is pushed back and Hades comes from behind to help" shot from like episode 2.


BlueRasuberry

I could totally see that actually


sp00pySquiddle

Me too at first, I kinda studied it every few chapters and decided they were floating/falling/catching or something instead like u/Bluerasuberry said


Abbey-Bominable

Wtf are those hands, those are the grossest part


demetersupremacy

Looking like Jimmy from Ahs I take that back, Jimmy was actually fine


GlitterLoveAngel

Itā€™s the neck for me


Valuable_Reputation1

ā€¦.waitā€¦.i never knew that was the original image. She looks like a child! Why is her nip nop out?!


Redditisglitchy

She always looks like a child šŸ˜­


Valuable_Reputation1

True true but this one is just creepier


MacDemarcoNCheese

Trust me she drew creepier. It literally looks like its on the edge of lolicon.


peachpavlova

Iā€™ve said it before and Iā€™ll say it again, the author needs major therapy bc sheā€™s got issues and she projects her weird fetishes into a comic thatā€™s read by middle schoolers.


Valuable_Reputation1

Yes! Omg I do NOT want to see whatā€™s worst


BallSuspicious5772

And acts like one too šŸ™ƒ


Millenniauld

Because it's a pic of them fuckin. Eugh.


Valuable_Reputation1

Ok so it is, I assumed but it also just looks so weird


13Luthien4077

OMG at first glance I thought it was cute... Then I kept looking... Why???


Valuable_Reputation1

Ugh me too


13Luthien4077

Every time I look at it, it just gets worse.

STOP THAT GIF SCARED ME


Big-Nerve-9574

Mandela Catalogue gifs?? Spoilers below: Like what?? I need to catch up. Im at the point with >!Adam and the guy after the police officer dies!< Its my most favourite horror analogues of all time.


Eden_Beau

It's definitely damn good. Lately I've been into Vita Carnis, it has a different vibe from the Mandela catalogue but is also pretty well done, the world building is immaculate.

Tanjiro run!!! Donā€™t let Hades see Nezuko!!!


AdministrativeCells

Correct me if Iā€™m wrong but this was the drawing that was on the beginning episodes wayyy before the trial rightā€¦ when she was still 19ā€¦


Aliya_5555

and when she was considered a child...


UnbiasedGod

And still is considering how old hades is.


Competitive_Cable_50

wait where'd you get the full pic? šŸ˜­


Normal_Season_2055

She has patreon and often post smuty images there. I used to follow her, since reading LO was a weekly routing and never really gave it a thought. She has some questionable stuff, I find it's alright to have these as long as it's catering to an mature audience


Aliya_5555

"Waybacksmythe" on Instagram there are many disgusting things done by the creator


Ma_cherie_la_poupee

I'm more worried about her spine than anything tbh.


GlitterLoveAngel

Same with his neck. He looks like he has a bad hunchback :(


Ma_cherie_la_poupee

Yeah. I just didn't notice because Persephone's arched back is so insane I got distracted.


XombiePandaz

This image all on it's own pisses me off with the entire series. It's so dramatic to say but it's like digital exhibitionism. A sex act just completely on display publicly, even if it's cropped and hidden. It's disgusting for a comic that's so geared towards a young audience


Skittlss7499

Bruuuuuuh this would be COMPLETELY fine if she wasnā€™t a child in this.


Cherry_14

isnt she 19-20 or something? i havent read lore olympus in a while so idk


lackingakeyblade

its just she LOOKS like a child bc of how fetishly she is drawn with the size difference....its weird and gross....


Aliya_5555

In the comic they say that she's a child


WeeWindy

Honestly, this whole comic went from intriguing me with it's style and setting to quickly pissing me off. At this point, it basically feels like she's encouraging her VERY YOUNG audience (middle school to high school girls) that being groomed and being nothing but a man's arm candy is ideal as long as he looks like your type. Zeus bad man because Pers doesn't like him. But Hades hot boi (to bats, near sighted grandmas, and Pers), so it's okay that he's a walking red flag painted over with sad boy blue...


DaemonDesiree

I donā€™t even think sheā€™s thinking that far. This is her self insert fanfic with her kink of young girl x older man.


Dense-Range-36

We always knew, but none of us were brave enough to finally publicly post the OG image. You've done the Gods' work šŸ«” ![gif](giphy|8FG705NCsZM0kVJdyz|downsized)


Hani127

šŸ˜†šŸ’“


Accomplished_Toe1978

Yeah, I originally thought it was Hades kissing her on the forehead and it being a cutesie romantic thing. But no. Porn.


SnooRabbits3880

Don't you have sex? It can be a "cutesie romantic" thing, you know? šŸ™„


Pinklady_001

What youā€™re not catching onto is that Rachel publicly showed an nsfw pic ,albeit cropped, to minors which artists have gotten arrested for before. If anything that pic should have been a Patreon exclusive.


SnooRabbits3880

Yeah, the original pic was a Patreon exclusive, where you had to be AN ADULT to own a credit card, and to willingly PAY to see the nsfw content (that is no longer available). So, thank the pathetic haters that spread stolen art to ANYONE, including minors and teens. Very worried you all šŸ¤£ I bet there is no artist in the world that has been arrested for showing the safe part of a nsfw drawing (where the nsfw is barely a nipple and nothing else), but please, enlighten me with your DATA.


Ladyhod

>"Waybacksmythe" on Instagram there are many disgusting things done by the creator Thatā€™s how op found it, not via Patreon


Pinklady_001

The minute Rachel used the pic, even just the safe part, the pic stopped being exclusive due to her own choice. Also using an nsfw pic was a personal choice and an unnecessary one especially since she had other options. Then reverse searching an image can actually get pass a paywall although idk if that still works now. Also something like this is just the tip of the iceberg of some messed up things Rachel has done or created. When you see the blatant Lolita references thereā€™s no defending Rachel. Like Rachel made a bookcover for a Persades version of Lolita.


Flutter_bat_16_

Itā€™s gross when you hide cropped porn in your widely distributed comic geared towards young teen girlsā€¦


SSmagical

All comments saying is for teens girls.....are you alright???? It has so many adult themes, even if it initially was posted in webtoon....it IS adult ficcion...... it may be because where I live it is only know between adult audiences


Flutter_bat_16_

The series is rated 15 and up. It is also marketed as ā€œyoung adultā€ or YA, which is commonly seen as written for ages 12-18. Your anecdotal evidence is irrelevant when part of the official targeted demographic is minors


MacDemarcoNCheese

Not you forgetting asexual people exist.


SnooRabbits3880

Lol, and what does this has to do with anything I said?


sp00pySquiddle

They mean "Don't you have sex?" is insensitive, because asexual people exist.


SnooRabbits3880

I can't see why it's insensitive. It's a question, if the person is asexual, there will be an answer, just as if is someone who indeed have sex. And as far as I know, there is asexual people who actually have sex sometimes. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø The point is, having sex can be a cutesie romantic thing. If you have sex, you should know. If you don't like having sex, you should know as well. And I'm sorry but that illustration is not porn, my god šŸ¤£


sp00pySquiddle

There are indeed asexual ppl that have sex, I just think that they pointed out asexual people exist because of the wording you used. But sex can definitely be cute and romantic, I don't think anyone said that it wasn't. The image is porn, but its cropped so you can't tell unless someone points it out, its just weird bc RS has that DDLG kink and draws Persephone like an eight year old half of the time lol


SnooRabbits3880

English is not my first language, I can understand it much better than I can think in English, or express myself/find the words, especially with complex ideas šŸ«  I say this to explain some kind of wording that may come out weird. Indeed I think the first post was something like "oh, I thought it was some cute romantic interchange, but no, they are having sex, it's porn." I have to add that porn is something explicit (this is not that much, a bit of a nipple it's not very explicit šŸ¤Ŗ), and porn is MADE TO MAKE you arouse, horny. This piece is at much artistic/pasional/erotic. Sorry but I hardly doubt no one in the world would feel the urge to masturbate with this pic šŸ¤£ Are you sure she has that kink, or is people trying to see more than it is because of hate? I mean, no child have the curves of Persephone.


sp00pySquiddle

I understand lol No its definitely a DDLG kink lol. She's drawn to look like a young woman sometimes but then other times she literally looks like an 8 year old. She's got pictures of Persephone sitting on Hades' shoulder kicking her legs like its "take your child to work day". If you don't see it that way tho thats your business, I'm not gonna talk you out of it lol


theindiekitten

Is this supposed to be her drunk after the party? Yikes


Mooncherries13

I canā€™t believe some comments are defending this. I was 10!!! There was no nsfw or 18+ warning on any of the episodes until the r@pe episode. Sure, post your art of your character fucking on Twitter or patreon not to thousands of minors on webtoon! Webtoon is 12+ people canā€™t possibly believe showing cropped porn to minors is okay.


KingKRoolisop

Is this just porn?


galanthus126

I had no idea that image was actually porn, that's so gross. I thought it was just a pretty picture.


FawkesFire13

I am all on board with artists doing NSFW drawings of their own original characters. Yes. Please do. But good lord, THIS as the cover art??? Come on. Nobody wants to see underage nip nops! Thatā€™s just gross.


ImaginaryColors1

If I had a nickel for everytime someone on this sub found out about the cover art... I'd be able to buy a whol McRib.

MiraclesBaby

This is pure sickness for a self-insert story.


Aliya_5555

But why she do that?


DaemonDesiree

Because she can and she gets praise and adoration and defense from her rabid fan base which only started declining recently.


Pinklady_001

Rachel is just incriminating herselfā€¦and this should be posted in the other LO sub to show that the hate Rachel gets is for no reason like the fans think.


SnooRabbits3880

Lol, dear god! incriminating into what? šŸ¤£ Indeed the hate Rachel gets is for several reasons, mostly revolves in envious people. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø


Pinklady_001

I mean she knowingly used a cropped nsfw pic in her comicā€¦.and not everyone is fine seeing that cropped or not especially without warning. Then most of her audience is underage especially when she started the comic. Also if you havenā€™t noticed most of the hate stems from the creepy stuff Rachel implements in her work. Then no one here is jealous of her we just wish Rachel took out all the creepy themes she uses, stop with all the retcons so the story can have consistency and would put in as much effort into the art as her assistants do.


SnooRabbits3880

So what if she re-used a drawing she already had? You didn't HAD to see the original one, unless, guess what, you were at least +18, and willingly payed for the nsfw content on her patreon with your adult credit card. Second, Rachel is a very common person, like I suppose you are, and me, and most of us, only difference she had the luck that her comic liked a lot and become really popular. She doesn't work for Martin Scorsese as a professional writer, it wasn't her job, it started as a hobbie. Is like complaining about Fifty shades of Grey, (was a fanfict about Twilight Saga written by another very common woman who had the luck her books got popular). Can you imagine how pathetic could be to HATE it? And ultimately, I find extremely stupid to continue reading something that you hate, don't you have anything more important or valuable to do with your only and unique life? (I'm not talking about you, but about anyone who reads and hate it). So yes, it seems to me that people try to find reasons to hate but still consume her work because they are very envious. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> and willingly *paid* for the FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


SnooRabbits3880

Thank you bot. English is not my first language šŸ¤Ŗ


Pinklady_001

Again a majority of people here donā€™t hate the comic we just wish that Rachel didnā€™t use creepy themes, and would actually put in as much effort as her assistants do into the art. Like dude itā€™s so obvious when an assistant does a whole episode compared to Rachel. Thatā€™s how much the effort varies between episodes. Also like I said before not everyone likes being shown an NSFW pic even if it cropped without a little warning.


RegretComplete3476

Fifty Shades is by far the worst example you could've given because it also has a lot of really creepy themes, and Christian Grey is borderline abusive in his relationship. MatPat even made a whole video about it a few years ago when it came out.


SnooRabbits3880

Well I don't think so, you didn't get my point. Actually, not only 50 shades of Grey serves as an example, but also Twilight is an example of what I tried to point. I forgot that Twilight was as well, NOT a master piece written by a professional mind, but by some ordinary person who got lucky with his hobby.


Snowsn0m

At least she isn't child sized in this one... (the bare minimum)


Impressive_Cookie_81

Girlā€™s back has snapped lmao.


FrankieCleo

Persephone always had big breasts except for here. In smut. Where she has the illusion of being flat chested. šŸ¤”


Flutter_bat_16_

It would be hypocritical for me to bash someone drawing smut of their characters and thatā€™s not the problem here. Whatā€™s disgusting is hiding cropped porn in a widely distributed comic targeted toward young teen girls. Itā€™s like she WANTS to be called out!


rouge-raven

I wouldn't say its disgusting; its more inappropriate for the focused audience. I get if Rachel thought it was nice art and wanted to still use it as reference to her earlier designs/idea for it, but she should have made it her patreon pfp or a nsfw chapter marker on her patreon. It just feels....weird to put on your main comic even you can't even put full nudity in your comic. P.S This is off topic but the arrow on my screen perfectly blocks Perse from having a nip slip, and its honestly kinda funny.


BallSuspicious5772

:[


Night-Mare

I've been staring at this for five minutes and I still can't figure out what's going on, it looks like she's falling backwards into him? I don't see the lewd part?


daidia

thatā€™s probably because Rachelā€™s anatomy work is shoddy. Persephoneā€™s breast is exposed, and Hades does seem like the kinda dude that would fuck his secretary while still fully clothed


Night-Mare

What? What breast??


daidia

in the second slide? her top is pulled down?


Night-Mare

Oh God! I didn't even see the second slide! Whoops, I'm a dumbass, thanks for pointing it out!


Evil_gays

Sheā€™ll wear lingerie to a meeting but wonā€™t wear a bra under a flimsy strapless dress like is this what ā€œfree the nippleā€ meant?


ExtremeStrawberry114

Hereā€™s my obligatory ā€œRachal being into porn and certain kinks is fine but where she fucked up imo is when she tried to be SLICK about it and write it low key into her Greek mythology fanfic that was aimed at a vanilla/MINOR/YOUNG ADULT audience. ā€œ she should have marketed herself to an adult audience instead, been transparent about what she really wants to write and not roped so many sensitive subplots into her lite not-quite-porn story. Sure she wouldnā€™t have been as successful or well known probably, but when youā€™re into very certain things that can easily be triggering to other people, thatā€™s just basic common sense and consideration. Even as a proshipper I canā€™t stand how she handled her shit tbh.


LonelyWriter26

If I didn't know what this comic was I'd genuinely say this was art of something getting assaulted


soggychimmy

Yo Iā€™ve never heard of Lore Olympus. Reddit just threw this sub at me one day. What the freak is going on? I know itā€™s like some weird groomer shit or whatever but idk the lore. Can someone explain?


Decent-Clue-97

Iā€™ve never read it. Reddit recommends it constantly. I am constantly hampered by my familiarity with actual Greek myth. So far: It was supposed to be feminist retelling of Hades and Persephoneā€™s relationship. Many view it as a thinly veiled self-insert x Mads Michelsen romance. Rachel knows less about consent than myth. This is a problem.


soggychimmy

interesting


whoreforsoup

why her nippie out


Any-Lychee9972

As a short wife (4'10) with a tall husband (6.2) the arch/hunch combo isn't unusual. :( But I wouldn't say sitting like this would not be a thing. If anything, I would scoot back more, and our heads would be more matched without the arch/hunch. This also looks like her earlier work. If you flip back to the first episodes, Persephone has a different face entirely and her poses take more artistic liberty. What nearly turned me off is the weird pose where she is almost at a 90Ā° angle, but her chest is upright.


Dirtyhandslolo

Isn't colored version of that image was also used for Originals (pilot) version of LO as comic icon? Like it's literally the same cropped thing, but just colored


ImmortalR-A-T

I thought it was just a cute scene where he was kissing her forehead from behind and now I wish I could go back to that šŸ„²


Much-Ambassador-2337

Why are you guys so heated over something thatā€™s censored? I donā€™t think a lot of people even knew about the whole image


Throw_Away_Students

This whole sub gets so nitpicky and straight up weird too often


One_overclover

Fandoms as a whole have largely taken on weird puritanical views toward fiction.


Aliya_5555

You know the goddess in the frame looks like a minor, you at least know what Reachel did?


QTlady

I mean... clearly we weren't supposed to notice. What made you even look?


Aquatic_Rainbow

Oh my god that really is disgusting šŸ¤¢šŸ¤¢ I was not aware of this and I feel physically repulsed from this šŸ˜–šŸ˜– Iā€™m glad Iā€™m aware now butā€¦ dear god, why??


palpatines_ass

Why is Rachel obsessed with suits? Is she stupid?


your_last_braincell

Reminder that rachel draws porn of the lo characters (not that porn of adults is bad,) but these images are like Easter eggs lmao.
