Sorry, but the ending was stupid. The kid realized that life on earth sucked, and as God, he had the power to fix it, but he chose not to for some reason? He didn't even make the choice to end all life on Earth, he killed himself thinking that there would be no effect on humans so even the gravity of that outcome felt unearned. Not to mention how aspects of the ending felt retconned. He gave up on what he wanted to do as God because he didn't have a big enough perspective(??) as a human and God was able to die because his human personality was strong-willed enough(??) and that delayed the fusion????? Honestly, it felt like the author got bored or depressed and just gave up on the ending. I've seen very few endings as irritating as this one.
A part of me deeply wants for this to be made into an anime, but I honestly don't have the confidence that an anime could do it justice. The art gets SO FREAKING GOOD, I really can't imagine how it could be properly replicated in animation. It would have to go to a studio that could give it the tender love and care it deserves.
It makes me smile to see everyone in the comments loving and appreciating the second couple as much as I do. I still like the first couple but the growth and depth of the second couple is just *chef's kiss.*
For anyone feeling put off by Riftan's behavior, don't worry too much. The author takes her sweet time (and then some) building up to it, but there is a point being made and I definitely think you are meant to find him overbearing and unpleasant at times. Unless the webtoon decides to be significantly different from the novel, this isn't the typical ignoring and waving away of the ML's problematic behavior.
oooh he gets character development and let's her become more independent?? I'm very intrigued, would love to see a proud riftan
Haha, not quite. Would you like spoilers or would you rather wait to see the story through?
sure why not lolll
They are so good and sweet together. I'm really going to miss this story now that it's finished.
Somehow, I just now realized that the summary is a lie. I don't know how it took me so long. But I've been waiting 100 chapters for Dietrich to decapitate Herman because the summary says "What’s that in your hand? Don’t tell me that’s the male lead’s head?" but no, Herman is still alive and kicking in Chapter 106 and will probably continue to be fine. Which is a shame, because it would have been interesting for Annissa to have to grapple with Dietrich doing something cruel and evil, bit whatever, it's a different story now.
Yep now we're all focused on the incest that's about to happen.
Obviously this was meant to be silly and dumb and not be taken seriously and I give it points for going all-out, balls to the wall insanity with its premise, but we gotta admit the incest pedo-ish thing with the uncle and his teenage nephew was creepy, right? We're not all so desensitized by yaoi and general manga tropes that we don't feel at least a little put off by that sort of thing, right?? Right???????
Fortunately it won't impact my life at all but yeah it's the only part i didn't enjoy, could have be great if the mother killed him. But come on, not even a beating, a broken arm or somt (╬￣3￣)?
Did anyone else get irrationally angry at Chapter 11 and the "chocolate cake" the shitty fiance bought? Sir, that is a large sandwich with a hardboiled egg on top of it. The fuck you mean "chocolate cake"??? That is a sandwich with an egg on top!!!
Okay but I didn't notice that before and that is honestly so ridiculous and hilarious. I'm sure it was meant to be a placeholder, or a ref to draw over, or sumn and they forgot, but to see them talking and making a big deal about a "chocolate cake" and it's literally a sandwich with half a FRICKEN BOILED EGG on top is too fucking funny! Thank you for pointing that out.
This gives Ryan gosling papyrus energy
This is one story where I almost want to recommend that people read spoilers for the "end," especially for the readers feeling frustrated with Maxi's timidness. Knowing what the story is building to and what Maxi's character arc will be really makes these slower moments worth waiting through, at least for me.
The confirmation that Shun was the dead lover's reincarnation was less angsty and dramatic than I thought it should have been and it also felt like it happened randomly without hardly any buildup. Also also, we really didn't learn anything about their previous relationship or how Miiyu originally fell in love, which I think would have helped the story feel more heartwrenching. It wasn't necessarily bad but it was disappointing. Oh well.
maybe put a spoiler tag man
