Kind of interesting how characters that have the power to turn back time always end up slowly losing their humanity over time. as they continually grow in power by increasing the number of iterations of “the present” they experience, any single “present” loses significance beyond gathering intel to achieve a particular “future”. if that is what becomes of your relationship with time, then it makes sense they would lose their capacity to connect with other people in any one of those present moments they are sort of just passing through again. Even if you start as an innately empathetic and social person, going through that is inherently isolating and jarring. No one can understand it, stakes change, significance of the “here and now” changes as you’re no longer tethered to it or its constraints, you inevitably become untethered to others and you are destined to live disingenuously forever bc if people do know, they will never fully be able to trust that you haven’t redone the moment and aren’t manipulating them. The power may actually be more of a curse than a blessing.
Any reccs that are almost exactly like this (arrogant privileged no strings attached type guy meets a girl
who is even more detached and won’t reciprocate those feelings but it’s not a ploy to get his interest she just has other deeper shit going on…et voilà: 180 in the relationship dynamics)
Someone tell me the mouths improve w time. They all looks like they have only gums
Wow I always knew I hated harems…but I always loved reverse harems (or at least the build up before the ML finally is chosen)….I’m shocked i dislike this. I feel like a grandma being like, “stop fooling around and choose your childhood friend turned smoke-show and kick out the others so you can be serious and ultimately get married. You can always train him to be excellent at sex.” When did I become so vanilla i think it’s because the dynamic gets awkward and nonsensical while the plot goes nowhere with harems. (P.S. make sure Dogun has a great severance package)
I love how her power is the embodiment learning from your mistakes and that success is not never failing but never giving up. She seeks out failure so she can learn, fail “better”, again and again until she achieves her goal. The whole thing makes her powerful. I love it. She’s not inherently OP, but she earns her power all the while questioning what that means for her humanity and morality and ultimately identity
I only scroll through the updates to see if there are any panels with baby birds now
This must be the only webtoon to ever have a pregnancy longer than it would be in real life.
Hilarious and adorable and surprisingly dark pure
Ok it’s cute but I’m 82 episodes in and they still haven’t kissed and it’s now ruining it for me. I don’t like these ridiculously long slow burns tf
Edit: 97 mf chapters and all i got was a super chaste sorta kiss?
Lol i mistakenly thought this was completed and ch 55 had me thinking, “well fuck, that’s solid commentary on the unjust justice system, life and childhood trauma.” Kinda liked it
I caught myself at the end being like, “this is a manga and I’m tearing up about a birth…this is a manga. Calm down.” It makes me so sad bc I want a baby so badly but I probably will never have one and yeah. It’s still a beautiful, sweet story that also makes me want a body pillow lol. Definitely the purest thing on mangago.
To all the people out there that long for a child but worry they will never be parents or who are becoming parents but worry they won’t be enough or have children already but are worried they’re failing or kids who long for parents but for whatever reason are without:
5 TIMES THE POWER
I can only find non english chapters beyond 8… anyone know of (good) english translation for this??
This is hilarious… only finished ch 6 so far but it seems like this guy is on spectrum. But that aside, here is a PSA for anyone crushing on a nerd getting their doctorate: read their publications before the date (as best you can) or at least the abstracts and their research summary (usually on their lab’s website). If someone is willing to devote 6-8 years to get a doctorate and work in a field that is criminally underfunded (in terms of research grants) and no guarantee of job stability (like he said his experiment was cancelled despite how much work he put into it) then it’s a major part of their life that you should take interest in learning about. I’m not saying you need to be fluent in their field’s language or understand their research to have a deep convo about it like you’re their colleague, but know it enough to engage them and make it known that you care about this part of their identity
