just discovered this today. pretty cute and great story, and i love how the everyone loves the main character trope is executed. there are a few shoujo isekais i read who do that trope but i just end up cringing (i hope shoujo manhwa isekai writers can take note how its done here sksk). but also, let's not forget that mc is kinda, slightly being homophobic. like tf u mean bl is for watching? thats real life for u now boi/gurly, so now it's for experiencing. not like mc can go back to his past life either. its a bit disappointing that he still sees the other characters as game characters when he's living with them now, especially w that montage of his brother taking care of him and stuff. but overall a great read.
Imo...at the moment it seems more like MC is less interested in being personally involved in romance themselves not just BL, and would rather just be a 3rd person viewer? Even if that changes later, that's how s(he) seems to feel right now.
We dunno how long s(he's) been conscious in that body, or which consciousness takes precedence. Personally, if I suddenly woke up in the body of a character of a manga I read, and I've only been living in the world for a short while, I think it'd be difficult for me to immediately start seeing everyone as anything but fictional; especially if they behave like archetypical tropes and cliches.
But this series is mostly a comedy so I don't think it's ever going to get that deep, lol.
given the montage in somewhere among the chapters of his older brother taking care of him ie. him saying his older brother has >always been< a friend, a brother, and a parental figure at the same time (mc couldnt have said that if he/she didnt play season 2), and chp 1, i assumed he's been there on that world and with them (specifically his older brother, his lover, and that lover's sister) since birth. like, he/she was legit reborn. its just that one day, he started getting flashbacks of the game from his past life, and apparently that was enough to just reduce everyone to mere game characters, even for his brother and the childhood friends. i would understand if mc felt that way to the
other characters he just met, but ppl he's been around his whole life? its kind of hard for me to explain haha, but that is why i said mc was being slightly homophobic and such, although i understand that he/she didnt wanna be personally involved with the romance. it just felt like he/she accepted the relationship of his/her older brother bc that was how in the game, and the game being BL that entertains him/her, then the couple is nothing but entertainment to him/her. does that make sense? im sorry if it doesnt T-T. and honestly, though i brought up the "seeing them as just game characters" part, im actually also torn bc the characters ARE acting like game characters.
i agree tho that as this is comedy, its not going to go that deep. but dang, i see a new potential for this kind of story, which makes me hungry for a more deep, realistic take on it haha.
sorry if my reply was long. i critique stories as part of my undergrad degree and now i just enjoy doing that so i always nerd out when given the chance haha.
Ah, no, I totally understood it as a rebirth and that MC has been there since birth, which is why I wrote "which consciousness takes precedence". Since, in other isekai stories, when the past "you" overtakes the "current you", sometimes your previous personality gets overwritten entirely; and they didn't really seem to delve deeply into that. For some migrators, it's just flashbacks, for others, their previous personality basically dominates; and that's kind of how this (appears) to me. But it's really debatable.
I appreciate your long and respectable response though, it's very intriguing. On the flip side, while I think it would be very interesting had this story gone a deeper more rationale route, I don't think it could work with the set up given that they are trying to actually explore character tropes. Being silly works more to its favour.
yall i read this while im sleepy so i might have breezed past it but so yagii san knew about taiki's house through wani?
i was happy that eril at least thought it was weird to be a romantic partner to a toddler but ummm... kissing a child... yeah that was kinda uncomfortable.
i know this goes without saying but he really does seem like a person who would say "ooh lala"
mingwa better not pull a bj alex and make jaekyung grovel GROVEL. showed us over 50 chapters of dan being abused so put the same energy into the grovelling. i swear these authors are in love with their semes themselves that they cut them some slack.
i wish the seme in chp 9 had gotten angry at least :( .... like i imagine how uke's other guys must have looked down on him every time he arrived on the scene and they were having sex and uke was nonchalant about it, or how they were rude and stuff, or how they thought he was idiotic and a pushover for putting up with that situation... also the fact that uke in the end was asking about the last one bang... ugh. kinda hate how the author portrayed the whole thing in a comedic, nonsensical way.
i picked this up bc i saw that it was only side stories that are being updated but the events in the story i feel like are still integral to the main plot so now im sad haha
Hate it when they do that
i stared for a long time at the penile sheath and the butt when i read that part bc my brain couldnt process it HAHHAHAHAHAHA
No cuz same. I’m over here taking deep breaths trying not to laugh too loud XD
nothing happened to that "villain"? the guy the seme injured w a scissor?
i have no words for this manga (i actually have for adam and his horniness and his attempted in the beginning but pretty standard for yaoi so imma not flesh it out), literally such smooth story telling, it feels like im downing chocolate milk or something. but anyway, just w the end, i have a question. Adam mentioned his mother, the queen, keeps his half-brothers like a lover. so like, does she have s*x with them??? cause it was mentioned she not right at the head also. like, what do yall think, i literally cant move on from that teeny tiny detail haha.
I think she does, as insane as it is. Or maybe something more like an emotional affair with sexual tensions.
thank u for your reply haha, the idea of such dynamic is so disgusting that now i feel like the reason the author didnt explicitly state or detailed what 'keeping like a lover' meant was to keep the readers sane lmao and to leave what it entails to the comforts of their imagination. like, it wasnt that gross when i was still confused, but now that its kinda agreed upon its just very ugh ಠ﹏ಠ
