Another confusing rant

I still feel the same way I did from my rant back on August 12.

I've slowed down on this but still love it. Honestly, I kinda wish each Owen had their own nux. I get that all 5 are the same person but they kinda aren't. Same thoughts but different timeliness and different personalities and feelings. The fact that mc still treats them all as 1 is cool, but tbh if 1 isn't okay with it but puts up with it, is that really ok?

A lot of times I'm okay with reverse harem but this one isn't really making me as happy as I thought. I just can't help but feel for original ml. In my first rant I said same root but different branches and I still think that way. It's not easy watching the person you love with someone else even if that person is just anither you...

It is commendable that mc can attempt to and love all 5 of them equally but I still feel like ml1 feelings and discomfort is glossed over....

I need another Nux

    Yeah I get what you mean. But genuinely I think it's the author's fault. He imposed monogamous values into a polygamous work!

    Now it looks like Nux is with 5 different men.

    But really, this manga if it had been handled with better knowledge & sensitivity, it would have been a masterpiece. Now it's jealousy after jealousy, what one would see in a monogamous relationship with possession being one of those feelings felt.


    Honestly, relationships are not always about ownership. There are alternative relationships even in reality. Like some tribes in Nepal & India where all the brothers share the same bride. How do you think their cultural norms have developed along such practices? I genuinely wanted the author to do a bit more research, instead of thi imposition of his monogamous value system.
