U can tell the ogFL truly cared about the ogML, in my head since they both stayed in the same world theyll both end up together eventually and everyone gets a happy ending
I like some concepts, the plot is cool, but the characters are just ew (well really its just the guides haha)
Also the "he has ALL the powers" was so cliche and lame BUT AGAIN really liked some of these concepts:
creating someone with powers,
forcing someone [the aunt] to love u [NOT supporting this, but its realistic and human that a kid would do that, he could have undone it tho "I feel guilty but not guilty enough to do anything about it"],
the mc and ml don't have the highest compatibility,
so on and so on
Obvi the brother of Dr.Oh has to do time for his crimes, but he's also a victim, I hope he gets a happy ending
Lowkey same with that crazy guide, he needs professional help, I don't think he's bad coz he wants to me, I think he was just abused/manipulated to be like that (still needs to do his time tho)
Haven't read the novel so idk, I might be reading this wrong, BUT DID SHE JUST HINT THAT SHES GONNA SLEEP WITH THE INSTRUCTOR LATER COZ OF WHAT HAPPENED?!?!
In a "why should I be loyal to my husband when he wasn't loyal to me (by leaving), I can pretend to be with my hubby with this instructor when we slept together" kind of way???
But I don't think the queen is all that strong
She's WAYYYYY stronger than the king, that's for sure, but the king is weak (besides choosing who the crown prince is)
Not belittling the queen, if ML and MC (also MCs brother [at his peak]) weren't around I would consider her strong, coz she is strong in her own way, but the other characters are just too OP that she kinda looks like a toddler playing in the sand
That butler really loves the ML huh, the story would be better if they just end up together (as lovers or friends wtv their love for each other is) and leave mc out of it
Also ewwwww I thought 2nd ml was a good choice, him lying to her about ml isn't too bad in my book coz she's not in her right mind rn and telling her he is looking would just send her back to him which would push her back into a toxic relationship, BUT u can just tell that 2ndML said that so he can have a shot at MC (probably), so ew
Yayayay she's gonna meet her mom on mother's day weekend
The victims and perpetrators responses (in my limited knowledge) are realistic, like someone said unfortunately stuff like this does happen, so I do like that about this manga, ESPECIALLY how in the end it shows the MC isn't actually happy, he's just hurt and learned how to mask better
I COULD be wrong and I could be over analysing/giving the author too much credit, but I actually don't think it was rushed at the end or that it took a sharp turn, I think the MC was in a VERY dark place and he got better but he was no where near healed. I think he really did just learn how to mask better (partly for his dad and a little for his friend), he's able to "function in society" now but u can tell at the end that he's consumed by guilt, convinced himself that he likes his abuser, and not actually happy
THAT SAID, AHHHHHHHHH I WISH IT DIDNT END LIKE THAT!!!!!! I really wanted MC to get better, I wanted MC and the step bro to never see each other again, I wanted the step bro to get the help that he needs and also be held accountable, wanted the best friend to grovel a bit more (MAYBE get with the MC), I WANTED THE MC TO BE HAPPY!!!!!!
sidenote: sorry mom character, I thought u knew what was going on so I STRONGLY disliked u, but now I see that she DIDNT actually know what was going on and actually tried to help when u found out, also LOVE how the author was like "helping ur friend is great and all, but sometimes ppl need professional help" (obvi this was a bad example, BUT STILL ADVICE IS STILL VAILD!!)
Obvi what he did/is doing is wrong, OBVIOUSLY!!! But as much as I hate the scene, it is realistic
In what world would a man NOT take advantage of a situation like this where he "has to teach her worst case scenario" (not all men but many)
Coz it is fiction and they are endgame it does feel dumb to include this as an author, I get wanting to be realistic and reflect on the real world, BUT THERE WERE SO MANY DIFF WAYS TO PROTRAY THAT!!!! The author could have easily made the ML overhear some of the instructors or trainees talk about how they would/hope to rape her in that situation and shown him shut that idea down (that way it shows what would actually happen in the real world but still gives the comfort of fiction where it DOESNT actually happen)
This scene was just DUMB and there's honestly no going back from that, u mean to tell me they're gonna get together after this?!?!?
U don't have the upper hand, why would u think "threatening" her to marry ur lil bro would do anything??
