Pedophilia isn't funny in any context. Neither is misogyny. This has both in spades and an unlikeable main(?) character to boot.
I'd put the author on a watchlist if I were with law enforcement tbh.
Oh fuck I was going to give this a try but I cross the line at pedophilia and misogyny, so thanks for the warning
This and 'I want to hold Aono-kun so badly I could die' - same energy, and I'm loving it.
hm, I could tolerate the laws of physics being suggestions, but the fire incident breaks immersion for me.
why is the no-pants look her 'disguise' for escape? Or did she just find the shirt+jacket+cap?
why did her bro originally save his rival from the fire while he was holding his sis captive, did he not know at the time?
Why does right hand guy leave his boss stuck in a fire knowing he has a fire related trauma, and why did MC turn even that into a damsel in distress situation?
the boss lady is fine with mass murder and blowing up what is probably one of her own group's buildings to get to her step bro, but she's too disgusted to kill a (supposed) hooker on the spot?
Ah, well - space is a suggestion and time is a construct, so maybe logic isn't real either.
I knew practically nothing about mesopotamian mythology though, so this is an interesting read
I like all the characters so far: lazy yet surprisingly genuine MC, hypercompetent MVP Sir Patrick, lil chuuni magical girl demon lord, and even Renei despite her being your typical fanatical battle maid with a crush on boss.
The plot actually progresses and misunderstandings aren't stretched for 100s of chapters! The humans are also not completely evil, dumb or arrogant, they're quick to retreat when they're in a bad situation instead of jumping into the meat grinder like a bunch of NPCs. The story is going in interesting directions, so I'm keeping an eye on this one!
.
1. MC really did transmigrate and Lucas's completed manuscript doesn't have all that much to do with the story
2. The whole story is from Lucas's completed manuscript - i.e, he replaced her self insert with what he knew of her personality, and wrapped up the story.
The first option would be a good way to wrap up the story of those MC left behind.
The second option reads like wish fulfillment where he turns his supposed stand-in into the real love interest. Unless MC specifically wrote notes about Leo being a Lucas clone in her manuscript somewhere, I can't be certain if he was projecting or not. Also, if this is the case, MC's initial monologue about her feeling jealous about Lucas's novels and going doki-doki in his presence reads very different.
I hope author had option 1 in mind.
I think it's all about interpretation...we don't even know how those who have ostracized or bullied Amber have reacted after her death. Most likely play it up for drama just for five minutes of attention. But with Leo/Lucas...he might have taken her death the hardest.
So perhaps, in a way, it's the universe's way of giving them the ending that they deserve.
Bobae's idea of going wild... calling in sick, watching a movie, shopping at the mall and... tea?
lol, the burnout really got to her, huh
that's an ideal day for me
Is the goddess we see at the start a fake? Did cage killing the goddess immediately kill Tia? That seemed like it all happened in one lifetime since that was the only time he was growing older... Wasn't killing the goddess the thing that caused the time loops, and not becoming a demon king, whatever that means?
His original fate was to kill the demon king as a hero, so becoming a demon king makes a loop...how? Wouldn't suicide kinda mean that the hero 'killed' the demon king, unless there was some rule that said the hero can't die? Is the first emperor just a background npc for cool fights, and did the job class system actually matter?
What even is the story??
The reason killing the goddess of love kills Tia was explained earlier. I think it was that immortal emperor who was saying that killing a god would place a curse on the killer, and that curse would be related to the type of God, so they were wondering if he had killed a god of time to cause the looping. Instead we find out he killed the goddess of love, so the curse that comes with that is the person he loves dying ig.
I think the reason it keeps looping is because he is the demon king. So the timeline requires the hero to kill the demon king to naturally progress. The MC is no longer the hero because he now has the role of Demon king, so the summoned new hero was the only one that could be allowed to kill him to have the natural order continue to progress (I would assume? Though I think he's about to come back so idk). I'm thinking of it like a glitch that the world keeps trying to correct, so it loops again and again until the correct progression takes place.
That's what I got from everything, I'm sure if I remembered the rest of the manga properly itd make more sense haha
Thanks!! That clears up a lot of questions I had ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
The new chapter makes things a lot more confusing, but at this point I'm just writing it off as time travel BS (|| ￣_￣)
Trust me, I'm rubbing my little amount of braincels together so fast it's starting a little fire in my brain. Sometimes you just gotta read a manga and accept things at face value, because aint no way I'm gonna understand all the lore properly! No shame
