(Take a shot every time I mention misunderstanding or miscommunication in this topic)
The manhwa had a potential and a good start, but the second part/ending of it were so rushed. Everything just felt so scrambled and poorly conveyed that I was getting confused why characters were getting upset/mad. One frame they say one thing about how they feel, but then say something completely different when “talking it out” with each other.
It’s felt like the manhwa was taking me on a leisure walk, but then suddenly just started sprinting like an Olympic champion and I had to keep up with it.
The miscommunication trope is a big problem in this manhwa, because it became a constant theme and so overused. It was just one miscommunication/misunderstanding after another. And I get it. Both of them are high schoolers. They don’t know how to communicate properly yet. Especially MC who has problems with self-esteem and panic disorder. But after like… third misunderstanding you would think that they would learn something from it… no? In the end I was just rolling my eyes because author was just putting misunderstanding for the sake of it to add angst to the plot. It was just too much.
I was especially annoyed/disappointed in the ending. ML explicitly said that he HATES omegas and prefers alphas, so it wasn’t a shocker that when MC presented as an omega - his first reaction was to hide it from him. Then after spending MC’s heat together, ML leaves in the morning without leaving a note or a message KNOWING about how MC is always anxious and overthinks. And then he was surprised that MC misunderstood and jumped to conclusions. Damn, I’m a grown adult and even I would have thought that I was ditched.
It was understandable why ML was hurt too and tired of MC not trusting him, but the way he decided to handle situation was just petty and mean. He knew that MC misunderstood him and why, but made no effort to clarify things or to reach out? And then he also got mad at MC for it? It felt SO out of pocket, because the whole story ML was such a caring and understanding guy. Wtf happened there.
Again, I perfectly understand both perspectives, but the ending made me sound alarms and wave a red flag.
Anyways, the manhwa was rushed and ruined in the end. MCs never learned from their mistakes (only in chapter 60 did they learn *something* but I’m still sceptical) and conflicts were never truly resolved and were just pushed aside the whole time.
