I actually agree with all of your comment! And another title that handles well the time skip and the re-connection is Dangerous Convenience Store! Better written and lovelier title than Yours to Claim as well.
This wasn’t the final chapter, manga updates says it’s still ongoing.
This wasn’t the final chapter, manga updates says it’s still ongoing. And I totally agree with you about Minority, that one was really good. The way things happened after the reunion was handled really well.
exactly. like i dont think most people have a problem with yahwi being endgame but yhe way it was executed. it was way too quick and makes it seem like the author just wanted to wrap it up asap without any logical explanation. they dragged the story to hell and back with all those monologues and emotional crisis JUST for this to be ended in a way where they just randomly kiss and make up
The author really should have stopped with yahwi and jooin separating.
Well the author ended it kinda abruptly so it is so rushed to the point the timeskip would have had little to no purpose.
As much as I prefer this to end as soon as it can, the author could have used up 3-5 chapters just to build stuff up to make the timeskip much more meaningful.
They could have started the same way, with Yahwi going back to korea to accidentally meet Jooin, then jooin having processed and even healed from his past, he could have at least talked with him and showed interest in reconnecting. But they did not necessarily need to get together immediately. There would have been a process to show how much Jooin and Yahwi has changed and how much stayed the same. We don’t need to see an expository monologue about that from Yahwi. It should have been a gradual process of realizing those changes.
Eventually, they would wind up meeting a few times and realizing how they still have feelings left but struggle to act upon it because of their past.
I am actually would have been willing to read an extra 3-5 or even 10 chapters just to properly resolve those things. But no. We had to just rush through everything in one chapter. Then for me, the timeskip did little to nothing at all.
A good example for using timeskip as a good tool in their story is the Manhwa “Minority” which had very superior syorytelling than this. They made time as a means for the two leads to heal, they met up, realized they still loved each other, but had their own fears and reservation but it all came blowing up in one scene after one of them gets incredibly drunk.
Anyway, I was just frustrated with this series. Tho I do just keep tabs on this just for the sake of finishing it. I have invested too much time already. Sorry this comment went on for too long. Nobody will read it anyway. Lol
