I'm not enjoying the story. It feels like eating flavorless bok choy only to sate your hunger, I'm most likely going to be dropping this for a myriad of reasons. The writing feels sloppy and I didn't enjoy the other characters except from the Lucian, the beastmen, and in the beginning, Rachel.
The ML is a victim of abuse, which Rachel is totally aware of, and despite being the favorite of his father Rachel took barely any action towards the ML's father. Her threat (She won't call the duke "dad") didn't do anything and her attempts were weak and useless. She's a transmigrator, knows how bad the abuse was, has previous knowledge from her past life, was also a victim, and despite this she couldn't stand up for Lucian?
Another thing I hate about the story is how poor the "apology" was from the duke and duchess. That's it? That's it? Duke has little to no consequences for abusing his child? Duchess had little to no consequences for neglecting her child? That's it? Despite Rachel's priority being Lucian, she couldn't stand up for Lucian like she could've and should've?
Additionally, I know it's because she's overthinking things, and because there's families after her, and everything is chaotic but I just don't appreciate how after they finally got together author decides to stir the pot by making Rachel break up with Lucian.
I would read it only to pass the time and not to actually read something I find enjoyable. It's mediocre
I love love LOVE the Kurona, Hiori, and Isagi duo. I love how Kaiser is throwing away everything to improve himself and how he's now, in a way, working together with Isagi.
On another note, I think Ness will be left behind. Either that or Ness ends up supporting Isagi, but at this point I don't know whats gonna happen to him. The game already has a lot of good players, Ness only helps out Kaiser and he's in a bad spot right now. He's called the magician and the beating heart of Munchen, Kaiser limits his potential and without Kaiser, I wonder what he's going to do. Because he's either gonna keep clinging onto Kaiser or let go and finally learn to be independent. Anyway, Ness is my baby and I'll support him to the end of time. Personally, I just hope Kaneshiro does something similar to what he did with Nagi and Reo but just in a more complex manner.
Ella's mindset is exactly that of a kid's. ML keeps saying how she's inexperienced and innocent and it's so weird.
Learning more about Kaiser and Ness' relationship and I personally think that Kaiser DOES see Ness as a dog. He cares for Ness because he sees Ness akin to a "pet" of his. I think it's definitely because of 1) friendship that he won't acknowledge and 2) his feeling of "ownership" towards Ness. Kaiser says that he liked the soccer ball because no matter what he did to it, it always came back. Sounds similar to his relationship with Ness. Ness is a willing victim of abuse. I'm not saying he wants it. To be more specific, I think he knows what Kaiser's doing is wrong but doesn't care because Kaiser acknowledges him + because he cares sm for Kaiser. To him who was neglected and made fun of for his dreams, Kaiser is some sort of 'salvation' so even insults & physical injuries are "fine". After all isn't bite also touch?
In this chapter we really see how Ness cares so deeply for Kaiser while Kaiser remains with his eyes set on the goal to not feel like a failure. I can't wait for the weird Isagi harem shippers to come here and leave braindead comments again.. (sarcasm if it wasn't obvious enough)
Loved everything and then I saw the stinky comment of an Isagi x everyone shipper. Isagi is a minor, weirdos
Shidou and Reo has an interesting dynamic and I wanna see more of them together. I especially want to see how Nagi would react to Reo being beside a genius that's far better than him!
It's literally just a game route. Acting as if romance will kill u, sensitive ass babies
I'm usually understanding of female characters if they're introverted and awkward because to an extent, I'm just like them and I try to avoid human contact as much as I can. However, Ran's behavior keeps bugging me.. She keeps enabling Kaya's behavior while simultaneously saying that "They're just siblings" and she's trying to "teach" Kaya. The best thing to do here is completely shut all of his attempts and stop him and tell him off everytime he does something you don't want. But she doesn't do that. To me, it seems like sloppy writing done in order for the plot to still be brewing and for it to get extended for "drama".
Manga viscerally broke me and old readers will know the takoyaki maker jokes, as well as the PS5 jokes. Houseki no Kuni was truly a masterpiece of a manga and people might disagree with me but to me, the ending is the most fitting ending for this series. It started with Phos and it ends with Phos. No words can explain how I felt when the purest true bit of happiness Phos felt was during his death. Houseki no Kuni you will always be dear to me</3
I can't be the only one that wishes the chaps were longer instead of always being so short and cut into multiple pieces. Maybe it's because of that but recently I just can't find the manga enjoyable anymore, does anyone else feel me
