I get the feeling because this is technically a sort of "the origin" of omegaverse so it is bound to expound to a sort of the omegaverse we know now. I do think that the author will not touch upon it since that is probably YEARS into the future of the current setting. I mean, they still have a lot to figure out. They only started with scents and heats, physical changes like the ML being more athletic, the "there's another wolf inside me" voice. There are a lot of questions. Are there knots here? Are there imprints? etc. Would the story even manage to be able to leap there knowing that these are only highschool boys and the other kid just happened to be great at science?
I mean, I already love how they touch upon a little on the ethical implications of the heat and alpha's territorial instinct. They also touched upon the possible hints of discrimination those with second gender would face. But it is still in its infancy state and the story hints at that. This will be a big change to the world. How would the law and the society change based on this transformations in the human body?
Yes, that’s what I love about this manga, too. I hardly find any other omegaverse BL that touch its ethical implications, possible discrimination, and how the birth of people with ABO characteristics will impact the law of their world as much as this manga does. But it is precisely also these things that made me think what I previously said in my post. I feel this is the kind of world building needed for a grand plot involving their world. Well, I might just be overthinking.(￣∇￣")
Oh, also, do forgive me if there are something unpleasant about my post. My knowledge about the omegaverse is limited to the Japanese BL's adaptation of it, so I'm sure there's something that doesn't make sense. ╥﹏╥
I have such mixed feelings about this manga... Don't get me wrong, it was a beautiful take on the origin of the omegaverse, and it was superb to reference it to Genesis. But, somehow, I just can't calm down when reading, I feel so restless, like I just can't help but feel anxious that the worst will happen in the next panel, lol.
I can see the plot in this manga has the potential to grow so big that it will involve the whole world in that universe. Like, what if Shikito becomes the first researcher to successfully develop the suppressant for omega's heat and alpha's rut as a result of his desperate effort to protect Ririto... Shikito will take the world stage, while Ririto will be so anxious and depressed bc he feels unworthy of being Shikito's lover... Oh, how I hope the angst plot of miscarriage never touches this manga...
