please tell me your lying i might cry
*you're
No, please don't it isn't much of a sad ending really. If you want to know more here it is.
SPOILER:
Sasha's past crime had come to light. He was supposed to be executed by a firing squad due to this but it didn't push through.
Karel and Sasha end up together (they even married I think?). The end of their story was actually foreshadowed already. I think it was when Sasha asked what if Karel dies before him and Karel said it wouldn't happen. Karel will live until Sasha dies or something like that.
The novel then tells us that after more than 50 years, Sasha dies beside Karel. After Sasha's funeral, Karel goes home and committed suicide with his pistol. It was shown he was happy to end his life, thinking he will see Sasha in the afterlife.
mannnnn TT
tysm ily
SAY FUCKING WHAT
It's honestly giving Life Senjou no Bokura all over again for me. But with the addition of what I mentioned in the spoilers.
Wait who's sasha I thought his name was sasya
Apologies for this, I was reading the Korean summary of the novel and Google translate translated his name as "Sasha" so I used it and not the official and appropriate translation "Sasya". I saw some people being triggered by it, it was unintentional.
It's all good I thought the fan translation was wrong that's why I asked
There's no tragedy tag so I guess the novel spoilers I read isn't complete?
SPOILER:
I read a summary of the novel this was based on and it says Sasha was going to be executed on a firing squad? It says on the summary it wasn't a sad ending so...
I know some of you blame Sasha and it is understandable. He did leave Karel without a trace. But Sasha wasn't aware of the extent of his feelings for Karel during this time and he would only ever realize it upon meeting Karel again (as Scar). You also have to understand that Sasha is suffering from his mental illness which caused by all the abuse he had experienced since he was young.
Anyways, let's talk about Karel. Damn this man. He's really the very epitome of selfless and devoted love. From the very beginning to the present (even if he tries to pretend he doesn't love Sasha), he has been such solid ground for Sasha when he was having his "episodes". He really loves Sasha (w/ all his flaws and imperfections) .
