Yes, the hints are there, but the progress is still very much lacking. I probably have less of a problem with it as others do though, because I tend to stack this webtoon instead of reading it chapter after chapter.
Also that last sentence would make sense if you were talking about an actual piece that was released at once, start to finish, like a novel. Pieces like mangas, webtoons and light novels that are released weekly or even monthly, are not meant for readers to wait until they end before they can share their thoughts and opinions on it. Sure, sometimes presumptuous feedbacks are out of place, but when people collectively feel the same way, then are they really misplaced? What would be the point of the comment section if people can’t give feedback on the latest chapter they read?
As a writer myself, I can say that knowing how readers feel about the story along the way, helps in doing a better job with the next piece.
This story needs to end bruh
