I'M SO HAPPY FINDING THIS COMMENT, I was somehow drawn to the cover and my instincts keeps telling me to read it, I HATE ROMANCE IN ACTION! WHENEVER THERE'S A GIRL, SHE BECAME SOME LOVE HUNGERY MANIAC FOR THE MC, AND I'M JUST SO TIRED OF THOSEEE, SO THANK YOU SO MUCH
OF COURSE HAHA I MADE THIS COMMENT FOR US SOLDIERS WHO HAVE SUFFERED THROUGH THE TRASH FEMALE LEAD EPIDEMIC OF THE ACTION GENRE
THANK YOU SOLDIER
goes to show how many writers are fucking shit at writing girls and women. the stereotype pisses me off because it's misogynist as fuck. both the author who sucks at writing women characters and the reader who cusses out the character rather than acknowledge that the character lost all its potential because of a shit author
you cannot be serious… i’m literally addressing exactly that issue in my last paragraph by complimenting this author for good writing when many lack that skill. i think it is to be expected that the author is at fault in those misogynistic manwhas because who blames a fictional character for their made up personality???
and god forbid i compliment this author for writing good characters (because i’m relieved to finally get away from those hurtful women stereotypes) without having someone on my ass tryna tell ME and the other people to acknowledge misogyny when i’m literally the wokest mf around…
sorry I think I came across wrong. I meant to deepen the discussion by bringing up how the pervasiveness of bad writing is evident in bad stereotypes (one that you are familiar with) but it seems I just hijacked your comment instead.
but while we are at it... no it does not come across that you acknowledge it's the author's fault when you insult badly written women. it just comes across that you really dislike certain women. which is fine. some people can be very aggressive about their dislike though, as if it is the fault of the badly written character rather than the author.
okay so i read through the whole thing and tbh when i saw the red short-haired girl i could already feel the obnoxious tsundere pull up… but i was VERY pleasantly surprised. i looove her and she’s such a sweetheart ! i really like how she can think for herself and her whole character doesn’t revolve around the MC. it’s such a nice contrast to arguably every single love interest ive seen in action manwhas and tbh this one is by far my favourite. she’s such a good character there’s a possibility she isn’t even a love interest at all… the individuality and personality, set with her own goals. by far the most perfect female side character in an action manwha (w a male MC)
also can we stop making insufferable people the love interest of MCs what’s up with that??? either they are absolute assholes or half-nice but with no sincerity or actual built character. to be honest it’s to be expected that even the side characters are written well when the story is superb
