This mangaka is back at it again with the "what the hell is going on in this town." I'm sorry, guy, but you've either got to calm down or explain how any of this is possible. You can't tell me you've got all these psychopaths running around and everyone acts normal and no one is cautious or afraid or anything. And this new guy? I had a problem with the last revenge victim just straight-up poisoning kids in public, but you're telling me that some piece of shit is raping girls and breaking fingers and sending people to the hospital while on school grounds, and no one is doing anything??? I'm not even talking about trying to fix the problem, I mean there is absolutely zero reaction to the shit these asswipes pull aside from the people they're directly hurting at the moment. Nobody dropping out of school, no girls randomly bursting out in tears, no teachers looking uncomfortable because they're too scared to do anything. Is one of the kids related to the police force? Are they super rich? Is there some kind of psychopath mentor who's in charge the school and makes sure these crimes stay quiet?? I'm getting to a point where I don't even care what anyone does anymore because it's obviously for shock value instead of any meaningful world-building or plot progression.
Regardless if you think Annette should be with John or not because of the undying incest debate in the comments, I feel like we can all agree that Henrik is a slimy sonuvabitch that deserves to be yeeted off of the nearest cliff, no?
Me: Trying my best to enjoy the rare sweetness of this chapter
Also Me: Isn't Yoon still dying because of the curse/bite mark? Isn't the psycho asshole brother still dicking around somewhere? Does any of this even matter if the happiness could be ended at ANY MOMENT???
I appreciate that most of the people who read this also hate Takaya and think Yuki would be better off with literally anyone else. Everyone is correct. But seriously, what a bizarre story this is. In addition to a pain in the ass being the ML, there are also make-out scenes between the shitty ML and the FL's demon self, who already has a husband and a child and is over 800 years old?? What is this story even trying to make me feel??? Because so far, it's mostly been frustration and discomfort.
1. I don't actually have a problem with Gavin and Ingrid dating. Tragedy has a way of bringing people who experienced similar circumstances together. They probably prayed for Kala to be found together, grieved together when she was declared dead, and healed together in the years after that. Yes, it will probably break Kala's heart, but I think that if Kala had realistically been dead instead of a time-traveler, she probably would have been okay with them dating if that made them happy, since they are both important people to her. Of course, this is assuming that they developed a relationship after her disappearance and were not secretly cheating back when Kala was still around. Also, while I don't have a problem with Gavin and Ingrid dating, I do have a problem with Gavin himself. Going on a date with a girl and casually telling her she's beautiful is not how you treat someone who you once had feelings for but are now dating her best friend. Not to mention that Kala has given him plenty of opportunities to tell her he's dating someone else now, even if he doesn't say who it is specifically.
2. I wonder if the story is going to introduce new rules about time travel or stick with what we've seen so far. Because if we look at the fact that the police officer was still alive even before Kala went back in time and saved him from the fire, that would mean that everything a time-traveler does has already happened, so Kala most likely won't go back to 2013 to undo her disappearance.
3. I hope that Lenca can stop acting like such a bitch now because it seems like she can be genuinely very nice. It's one thing to be upset because your boyfriend abandons you during your make-up vacation to be with some random girl. It's another thing to keep throwing a fit after you learn that your boyfriend has been losing his mind due to suddenly and magically finding his highschool friend whose disappearance has traumatized him for the last 7 years.
Yeah im a lil worried. I prefer them dating after her disappearance, and that theres no secret relationship between even while gavin is in a relationship with Kala in hs
She clearly asked if he has another gf, but the guy just dodged the question and changed the topic. IT MAKES SENSE why her sister hates gavin.at first i hought gavin was in some relationship with her lil sister but i was wrong
I was mad when lenca said "if you love me you would go to bali" she knows that ezra is not comfortable going to Bali because of the tragedy that happened 7 years ago but she already apologized so ok ://
I still don't understand what was going on with the sea dragon hero. She and her lover just wanted to live somewhere peacefully by themselves, so how'd they end up joining the sword hero in destroying/ruling Korea? I feel like there's a significant difference intention-wise between accidentally killing people who were on a ship with you and then purposefully conquering an area and killing anyone who opposes you. I mean, clearly the military and anyone from the real world was no match for them. Why not just leave? Go live in the Bermuda triangle or something. Trade territories with the Golem hero, kick everyone off of Jeju island, and live alone without getting mixed up in other people's revenge schemes. I'm not saying its impossible for her and her sea serpent boyfriend to become evil, I just don't think that transformation was explained very well.
I think it was because people started attacking them after her lover permanently turned in to a sea dragon, they wanted to live in peace but humans were not letting them do that
I sort of see that, but at the point that the government has fallen, wouldn't they be fine? What was the point in intercepting and attacking the hero of revolt? It wasn't like he was tracking her down or anything. Just bad judgment on her part?
I guess it’s a pact kinda thing i think
He kinda was hunting her though. Since he hates heroes so all returning heroes are his target, plus the dragon girl isnt actively hunting people too theyre the one who decided to go to her territory after its already been established shes already there
I think it was mostly cause the hero of the sword would’ve killed her and her lover if she didn’t cooperate
Does anyone else think that maybe Evil Tasara was the snake lady's child? Like, in the same way that the curse carried snake lady's soul into Nara's sister, maybe the curse carried the soul of snake lady's child into the bloodline of the emperor? I could be talking nonsense right now, but I think it's possible considering New Tasara keeps talking about how he's neither a human or a spirit and I'm pretty sure the snake people are some kind of deity or divine beast or something.
I don’t think so, the curse literally talked about his past where he had no desire or consciousness and just watched his victim turn into a killing machine. Plus the lady probably wouldn’t treat her kid like that, also I assumed Tasara was saying he was neither human or spirit only a monster cuz he merged with the curse. So technically he's not fully human anymore, he's not a human who is cursed since they're now literally one being.
I know a lot of other people are turned off by the whole "emotional incest because they still think they're siblings" thing, but personally, I'm still super interested in WHY things have ended up this way and I'm really hoping the author explains it at some point. Why did the devil/John fall in love with Annette? Does it really have to do with Annette herself as a person or is it because of her bloodline? Is the whole thing a subconscious ruse to tempt her to sin and force her to suffer by creating the illusion of incest? Was the fact that Annette was drawn to John as a kid even her fault or was it the cost of the curse that her mother used? Did John's devil self purposely seduce a child to ruin the rest of her life or does it feel genuine love for her? If there is genuine love, how the heck did the devil start having feelings like that in the first place and why did it skip over familial love into romantic love? Yeah, things are super fucked up but I'm really hoping there will be a interesting reason for how we got here in the first place.
Ok same cause like this whole work is so deep in regards to the psychological point of each individual. Like everyone’s actions are having a butterfly effect that you see in later chapters and it’s like mind blowing each time a new chapter comes out
Yes exactly it's very interesting and some people are really toning it down into one dimensional 'oh just incest gross' like nah it's complex and is mostly about drama. It reminds me of game of thrones
Yes but I feel like this is diving deeper into each individual characters’ motivation and desires which will have consequences that only show up later
Oh yea for sure
And I mistyped earlier I meant to type trauma not drama
Well you weren’t wrong technically, trauma is drama but with pain added ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I swear to God, I can't deal with this webtoon at all. The author really said "I'm going to have Bella and Kiris confess their love and agree to be together, but then immediately show the readers a 200% more touching reunion between Krim and Bella just to really rub it in that she could have ended up with literally anyone else and it would have been a better pairing." Just... WHY, author? Why do you do the things that you do?
Yeah, I wish she would have feigned forgiveness and taken the throne away from him. Then choose someone else to have a happy live with.
What a fucking rollercoaster that was. The summary and first couple of chapters do not prepare you AT ALL for what this turns into.
