I feel like if both the inside and the outside is a fully adult, no questions about it, then why would you not consider her an adult? It would be scummy if they say that she's a child on the inside, but they explicitly say she's adult on the inside as well. I think it's like the adult Homonculus from Fullmetal Alchemist where they are fully grown adults from day one. But to be fair it does feel a bit weirdly framed with them saying "She is five years old!" instead of like "She's existed for 5 years by now" or smth, idk. Framing is important. Hope it doesn't get weirder :/
I think it maybe has to do more with Itsuka, with him being a magic user/sorcerer and someone who likes to be logical and rational, and being familiar with magical experiments. It could be just another excuse to avoid his feelings, which he is already suppressing forcibly with his magic (as we have seen), coming up with all kinds of reasons why it could never be.
It also could be related to something else from their past (ie. When they met/their journey at the beginning) that we don't yet know about.
We are told she is an adult, and imo clearly shown it as well - maybe she seems a bit slow at times (me too tbh), but she is an adult both in physical mind and appearance. Definitely the framing puts a spin on it, I wonder if this was a translation thing or if the japanese text had similar framing.
I know how weird these series can get (i mean hello ero-dungeon with classic hentai dungeon tropes)but I have my hopes up they'll do this series justice.
Ngl, I would've assumed this series would use seinen/josei tags for itself, not shoujo/shounen considering the youngest the latter caters to is 12, and this series def shouldn't be read by a 12-year old I personally enjoy the kink scenes and in general any scenes with Rufue make me gay panic 100%, but it def makes me uncomfortable to think this would be recommended to someone younger than 16. I feel like I've seen this series somewhere tagged as josei/seinen butttt I checked both here and on bato and both use shoujo/shonen instead. :v
wrt this it's serialized in a magazine that's DEFINITELY targeted towards older teens and up. scan sites like these tend to choose shounen/shoujo/josei/seinen tags in a really weird way in my opinion. so rather than relying on them for accurate info on target audience it's generally better to search for what a series is running in.
That's good to hear! I honestly didn't even think about that, and was mainly focusing on the online sites where I read series nowadays. For sure, the tagging/labelling can be so weird on here - I know a martial arts series here that is tagged with a romance tag despite there being none in the actual series :v I can only assume it's there due to the art style being somewhat more similar to a shoujo webtoon than a typical action/martial arts one.
As someone who loves the will-they-won't-they phase in romance fiction, this manga is exactly what I like in a story. A lot of people don't like it, and that's ok, that just means it's not for you. But stop complaining so much about fiction that wasn't made for you, you take up space that is meant for fans of the series to discuss it, and you bring down the experience for everyone. Thank you for giving the story a chance, and I'm sad that it wasn't for you, but please stop complaining about it so much.
I also am happy with the story. It's not perfect but the plot is interesting and not too complicated nor convoluted. The main characters also have a very unique dynamic with each other that's very charming. It's a great light read and a bit of a breath of fresh air compared to how same-y the majority of stories nowadays can sometimes feel.
So true! It's a slowburn that's actually written quite well. Although they're right that Alves could be kinda annoying from time to time, I still find it cute and there's actually some meaning behind him teasing Nunnaly so much. Moreover, there's just something so endearing about their dynamic for some reason. It's just a fun read.
Also, I think some people these days seriously have misconceptions on enemies-to-lovers trope. This story isn't that lol. This is rivals-to-lovers. It's different and way more cuter.
I dont actually think Seyun is good for Yuna, contrary to what seems to be the majority. Seyun isn't truthful to Yuna, and they are very different people (Yuna and Min are actually much more alike). Im not saying Min's behavior is okay either tho!! But she's very naive and new to dating, so its no suprise that she makes pretty bad mistakes. Seyun only think that Yuna is funny, like entertainment to her, and that feels like a really toxic relationship especially since Yuna is unaware that Seyun think of her like that. Like I dunno, I would hate to date a girl who thought of that of me when I was being honest... Yuna isn't even inlove or attracted to her, she is just using Yuna's heartbreak to get Yuna to date her. It might be true that Yuna will get over Min, but that doesn't change that she did that. Well, thats my rant ^^











Eunyung though that the memory of him calling that lady an insane bitch was proof of him being crazy from the start and not because of his parents, while actually he was just a child repeating what his parents taught him and was never given a chance to be anything other :(
