Okay so at first I thought that maybe the MC and the ML were both returnee that bc of the trauma they either forgot abt their past lives or was coping so hard that they thought it's a novel. But there are too many flaws with that theory so now I'm going with the theory that the novel has sequels that the MC know nothing abt and that in it the ML was actually a returnee. Still don't know how that would explain the lookalike characters and names tho, anyway I'm actually very intrigued
