this is great, just started reading it
but I really dislike it whenever authors write this trope, they switch the MCs into stereotypically bottom bodies
like going from buff to slim... and they don't try to get their old shape back, feels so off

    I'm forgetting the name but there was another popular bl with this exact trope a few years back
    same issue

    Same! It's not a total deal-breaker for me but I don't prefer when it happens. It just makes so little sense.

    exactly
    have you ever read any other manhwa/manga with body switch without this stereotype?

    Now that you say that. They only ever “switch personalities” when they switch bodies but they never try to improve it like they did with their previous one. I would be interested in a story where the MC swaps bodies but makes it their own.

    Omg, I misunderstood you, I thought you were saying this as an example of one that *didn't* twinkify the MC, but you meant the exact opposite! My apologies

    It seriously is--the only reason I can somewhat forgive Kill the Lights for it is it gave us a taint piercing in exchange
