I always find it sort of funny how the japanese view foreigners like exotic animals
"chocolate colored skin" that made me cringe I'm not gonna lie
then theres the random throwing of french phrases here and there?
also the whole "foreigners are touchy" trope
this guy LIVES and works in a japanese company someone like would have a decent enough grip on japanese social cues and wouldn't just kiss someone on the cheeck like that just cause he's french
I don't know maybe I'm being too judgy but it feels like the story is written solely with the gimmick that the guy is a foreigner

the idea that foreigners are touchy and kiss each other to say jhello but not at least making a quick google search that it's a bise and there's a specific number of cheek kisses depending or location and you don't even really kiss the person's cheek you only press your cheeks together and go muah and you alternate cheeks and its most of the time only when a man and a woman says hello or goodbye and men mostly shake hands. like what? and ppl aren't stupid, like others said, he lives in japan, speaks japanese, he surely has the brain to follow japanese customs in japan, as we say, in rome do as romans do. like bffr

I don't know how to feel about the possibility of blanche and verite becoming a thing?
like he has taken a child's appearance now sure but he was still an adult for like 3/4 of the story so far and I'm pretty sure he's still mentally an adult as well

that's the mirror's technical age since being made but it has been hinted that verite himself MIGHT actually be a human soul sealed within the mirror itself, as he performs in ways other magical items can't like the fact that he has free will and is able to freely comunicate and have fluent conversations
and judging from his demeanor he must certainly does not present as a child
at all, had he not shrunk to keep sevelian from losing he'd still be viewed as an adult

I feel like there could still be a possibility that’s he’s a child In the pass chapters they mentioned the prince going missing in the fairy kingdom and I immediately thought of verite. So even if he is a soul sealed in the mirror there are still chances he could be a child or at least not an adult yk.

just to clarify they never said if the band dude was an alpha, he could easily be a beta or even an omega. But the thing is, to me it looked more like the guy seemed uneasy and uncomfortable with hazuki being an alpha. which makes me think he might have some posible trauma with alphas that we just don't know about yet
every male omega in this manga so far has had an avoidance of alphas too
and we already had an entire arc with someone else in love with naoto seems like a poor writting choice to do it twice

Ofc it's Kiraide Isasete, Asanaga Sensei to Yanagi Sensei :)

you know why this story feels so fresh and heartwarming ?
because lily is an ACTUAL child, not some grown ass adult stuck inside a child's body
she has real innocence and realistic childlike behaviours
and that makes her bonds and interactions with other way more genuine less one sided
for me it always felt so dishonest when the protagonist have to pretend and lie to others who genuinly trust and love them it feels weird and a bit creepy

this was quite a clever way to demonstrate parentification and anxious attachment born from neglect and it really gave a good look into just how complex lily's trauma actually is
I do wanna say I don't hate the mother though I understand why other people would
but she's living a new life where she lives solely for lilyca's wellbeing and trying each and everyday to become better even if she makes mistakes along the way as we saw in later chapters where she didn't want lauv to be near lilyca despite her wishes
she's layered and so is lilyca which I do enjoy
bro I'm sick of new characters that turn out to be untrustworhty awful people. Every time there's a new one I already hate them because I know what's coming. The author just loves torturing denji just for the fuck of it
I think asa is the only other character aside from aki, power and nayuta to TRULY care for denji so I hope they continue interacting more cause damn "the kiss with asa was the only time I wasn't hurt" bro that broke my heart
another thing is that we're just constantly shown the worst sides of human nature in this manga CONSTANTLY, ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
shit's giving me Depression ☆premium☆
