Damn, just as I was excited about the red text in the description, I found out all the comments are bolded haha
Never change mangago :D
Stop. Stop!! STOOOOPPPPP!!! NO ONE WANTS THIS SIDE ROMANCE. NO ONE THINKS IT'S ANY GOOD. He hits women when he's annoyed with!! You can't come back from that
I know the author is trying to make it okay, by making the victim of the domestic violence support the relationship, but that's still weird!!! Tsumugi is being a bad friend by supporting her bff to get with an abuser!
That metaphor she pulled at the end makes sense on the surface, but it falls apart if you think about it. Tsumugi is fine with being stalked, so there isn't such a need to prevent a relationship there as is with the bff, who presumably isn't fine with being hit. And no matter what you say, no, even if they're perfect for each other or whatever, the best friend would obviously not like it if her stalker dated her friend. A wiser person might even think that they did that, to keep control of their ex.
Idkkkkk it's just dumb. At least it's just the side chapters. I can pretend this is Tsumugi's nightmare and everytime she wakes up and thinks "Oh thank God I'm not a pushover who let's my friend date the guy who beat me"
He's obviously kind of cruel and cold, but what I'm wondering about is why it works for me here, when I dropped other stories for similar things?
I genuinely like both of the characters and find their dynamic really interesting. On the surface, nerd uke x mean popular seme in a highschool setting is the most generic shit ever, yet even though I read it years ago, the story still stuck in my head! I read so much shit on here, forget half of it even if the story is finished or updates every week, yet this one! This one stuck precisely! What's the secret ingredient that makes this so good?!!!??
Maybe it's how the author captured the inner thoughts of the mc? He didn't just have a crush, he had that pining love that he didn't ever even think to fullfil. It makes you kind of relate to the seme, because it IS fun to watch him struggle with those feelings. That's why people read angst and whump. And while he is a bit cold, it doesn't feel like it comes from disliking or being angry with mc, more out of curiosity of how he'll act. Idk but this is really fun
I said before that I don't think an actual romance with the mc could ever happen, as this is a comedy based on a running joke, so any romantic development would change the genre, but.....the genre is actually changing??? Like there are still comedy chapters, but there's more focus on an ongoing plot so, maybe the believers will win this one idk
When I read an omegaverse work, I'm like "Yes, yes, this all makes perfect sense. Of course his pheromones would do that, of course this society functions lime this, this world is perfectly logical and there is nothing inherently sexual going on", but then I read a Dom/sub verse work and it's like. so fucking stupid. How would that even work. Why is your society based around a kink. Who's in charge who let this happen.
This story is heavily focused on their inner thoughts, emotions and subtleties of their relationships. I think that's really nice and intriguing, but the lack of outer plot points makes it really difficult to follow chapter after chapter.
Basically if you binge it, it's great, but then a new chapter drops a month later and you have no idea what's going on. Idk how many chapters this has, but I'd wait until they're all uploaded
Sorry, I'll be seriously pissed if Minchan and Seoho become one. I know it's romantic, I know it's the most emotionally simple way to resolve the conflict between him and Bihwan, but it'd be terrible story writing (not that I think it's going there! Just ranting really)
Minchan isn't Seoho, he isn't even a reincarnation of him. He's his own person, yet his entire life has been manipulated, to make him a good vessel. Bihwan was obsessed with bringing Seoho back, at the cost of Minchan and now he sees his motivation mirrored in someone more dangerous than him.
The best ending I can think of is Seoho's soul being freed, Minchan's fate being left up to him and Bihwan grieving properly.
I'm 100% sure Lysbett is acting with good intentions, but I think that her idea of what's good is something Sylhan would be against. Maybe she believes she's saving his life by destroying his memory, because what he knows would threaten the lord of Khalak, maybe she wants to protect her house and find Sylhan's memory loss a forgivable side effect.
Either way, while I don't think she wants to hurt Sylhan, she wouldn't do anything to free him from slavery. She wants him to act like a friend, get comfortable in his position, however unfair it might be.
I love Cale, he's like ooooh I have this selfish lazy scheme and then it's always just helping people and being kind to them.
I know some people take these thoughts of his at face value, but c'mon!! He could've had much more peace of he hadn't involved himself at all. He practically made himself the centre of international politics, how is that peaceful in any way? I personally think he's deluding himself, because he doesn't want to feel burdened by those expectations of virtue. I'm not even saying he's this selfless hero people see him as, but instead of caring for his own peace, he cares for the peace of everyone.
Wwwwwwait hold on why's there a tragedy tag, I'm not on board with that :(((
