Idk about you guys but I won't even try reading these new uploads cause looking at how fast they're coming I KNOW they are illegible and pure rubbish
honestly its not that bad
Tbh translation is hard to read. At some point it makes no sense at all T.T
Nah, it is that bad.
This is late, ik, but I just finished reading the 4. Volume and I really didn't like it.
I just really hated the whole storyline with iori (the schoolboy who had a crush on Naoto). He was such a rude brat and it took him so long to respect Naoto's boundaries. But.... it's not like Naoto put up any? Iori was annoying but it angered me even more to see Naoto just allowing this kind of behavior and being this unprofessional with a child.
Naoto is literally married with children and is years older than Iori is and should have acted accordingly. Don't let him bring you home??? Naoto obviously could not have known that iori had feelings for him but that just is incredibly inappropriate and I hated it.
And the whole thing was kind of unnecessary, his existence didnt add anything to the story (idk about vol 5).
Maybe this is just me but I wanted to vent a bit
I really wish they would stop uploading. Translation is unbearably bad you don't understand a word. Now they even uploaded the wrong manhwa
I wrote a way too long comment explaining my feelings on rashta but somehow it didn't get posted soooo just saying this
I feel very conflicted about rashta but ultimately I really pity her
Nah its there
Whereeee i cant see it
Same she was used alot then she become evil
I'm so sick of literally everyone being in love with Enisha. Even belluan???? I thought her relationship with the mages was more familial than anything else. And belluan was a child when he met her. It's just.... with the whole age gap mess this has anyway, it doesn't make it better.
Yeah I agree, I really would rather the mages only see her as a big sister :(
I dropped it long time too lol
It was being hinted at that belluan might be the traitor but NOT that she suspected it.
If you ask me this is just shitty retconning and disrespectful towards the reader. Don't let her have doubts about him this entire doubt and leave us out. Plottwists are a completely different thing: either a part of what happens is left out so you don't know the full context of a scene and are surprised when that part is revealed OR the characters themselves don't know about and are surprised too.
Here it was hinted at that he could be the traitor but definitely not from the beginning and not that she k ew something about. That's why some of yall here are not feeling it. There's no surprise or pain. We all kind of knew already. And enisha also kinda knew so we feel less compassion. It just took out all of the suspension
Had to read 100+ chapters to catch up and fhew, idk if it was worth it.
I really like that Tia is actually kind of villainous. She really sacrifices people and is kind of a morally grey person. She was a victim of her family but she still killed dozens of people and continues on doing so in this timeline as well. It's kind of sad but I also like it.
The baby is cute but I personally hate how little they have to do with it. Tia, please breastfeed your baby and take care of it yourself. Ik this was not always the case in medieval high society but still. I always find it so unnerving when in media babies are taken away from the mother after being born.

I don't know what to think about Lisia and Cedric getting their memories back. That's always really icky cause... who else? Lawrence appears to have some memories as well, so why not the king? And so on and so forth. Suspension of disbelief only goes this far.
I also disliked the scene in which this is addressed. I was really shocked, it was impactful. But it also was too short. They didn't really talk about tias past deeds and why Cedric chose to be silent about it. He obviously knew she came from the past life. It was always so tragic and it was kind of a let down how easly they resolved it.
It just was not satisfying and I kind of wish he didn't remember and she got to tell him herself
Tia most probably can't breast feed her baby because she herself is pretty weak physically. Actually for a first pregnancy and childbirth at such an young age ( I am assuming she is around 20 physically) in a particularly weak body, her simply surviving is nothing short of a miracle and given her age and body's condition I doubt she is actually producing my milk to breast feed. Women don't produce breast milk uniformly at their first pregnancy and it's especially true for young pregnancy, I have seen plenty of cases where very young mothers barely produce milk at all. I think Tia and Cedric are doing well enough for their period.
Also there is a proper reason for who gets their memories back in this world in the later arcs so it doesn't break suspension of disbelief.
Yeah, you are right. It's just something that's been bothering me in media generally. How detached childbirth is depicted. Obviously it makes sense why Tia cannot breastfeed but I still stand by my point that they kind of have nothing to do with the baby.
I'm looking forward to the reason being revealed now. Ty for telling me
I'm so sick of this manga by now.
The anime will forever have a place in my heart. But the manga is kinda ruining it for me now. Last year I read the manga up to date and was shocked at how slow the progress was going. Then they were finally getting somewhere - just so that masamune ACTUALLY raped onodera.
Like before that point it was always kind of okay because onodera wanted it (obviously that's not how it works but well, that's old-school yaoi for you). But that was full on rape. Then his friend also assaults him!!!
And what happens??? Onodera APOLOGIZES for hitting him to get him off himself. And he thinks it's HIS fault that masamune raped him, cause he didn't confess yet. Absolutely sickening.
I really can't anymore with this rape excuse behavior.
Apart from that, it doesn't even make me feel anything anymore. This was THE BL for me when I was younger. I so desperately wanted them to get together. It made me feel it.
Now I'm just.... bored. Like others have commented, it's always the same shit over and over again.
Their relationship is no fun. Masamune knows onodera loves him and onodera knows it too. There is literally no need to say it. Part of a good love confession is the surprise element - and here it's neither apparent in the reader nor the characters. We get to see how onodera thinks about it and masamune frequently asks about it. And is being an annoying ass about how it has to be done. I just want it to be over. It's been so fucking long for me and for them as well (idk how long ahhaha).
The excitement I once felt has completely vanished.
What it previously had, that made it appealing:
- the reversal of their relationship compared to when they were younger, that masamune was chasing onodera this time
- onodera denying his attraction but being unable to resist masamune
- the reader knowing, that onodera still had feelings
- but onodera not knowing / not wanting to know
- masamune also not knowing and having doubts
- the tragedy of them both loving each other but not being together because of the past still haunting onodera
So what's left?
Onodera knows his feelings and so does masamune. Onodera does not deny his feelings anymore. Masamune either has weird ass doubts that make him rape onodera or he KNOWS that onodera loves him. They are not together because onodera has not confessed. Which he would have, if masamune didn't stop him.
Basically, everything that made this appealing is gone and instead we are left with the same stale shit happening over and over again.
I am a sucker for love confessions and having it so aggressively shoved into my face how onodera is planning this shit and how they talk about it... it just ro robs me of my joy
I completely agree with you, though I also think in the first chapters, Takano sexually assaulted Onodera... I mean their dynamic was problematic from the very beginning (like many yaoi)
I am still reading it because I was so young when I discovered it, and I can't bring myself to dislike this manga, idk.. but I recognize their relationship (maybe less now in the most recents chapters that weren't translated yet) is/was toxic :/ people blame Onodera but Takano kept him from confessing multiple times, never respect his boundaries, assaulted him multiples times in the beginning + raped him in that one chapter.. (I absolutely hated that chapter, I wish it didn't exist) So yeah, I coompletely understand your point
The thing is, even in the beginning it wasn't THAT bad. It was dub-con.
On paper it's rape cause onodera said no. But we as a reader knew that onodera secretly wanted it. And he ultimately gave into it, stopped resisting.
In the real world this absolutely not conset but in the world of old school yaoi this all relies on the assumption that "if he actually didn't want it, he could and would have pushed him off and the other part knew this."
And compared to other stuff of that time this was super tame. Which is why I kinda give it a pass - it's a product of its time. Or at least, it was.
What happened in that recent chapter was not dubcon but full on noncon. Onodera did NOT want it, did resist and masamune had to hold him by force, leaving him with bruises. This is completely different and does not go by the rules of dubcon. And with it came this whole rape excusionary rhetoric that it didn't have before. Onodera blaming himself, apologizing and masamune himself justifying his actions. The author 100 % knows this is different.
And unlike the beginning it's not a product of 2000s toxic yaoi but of the 2020s. And this kind of stuff doesn't fly anymore today. Other authors like the one od hidoku shinaide have changed their work with time and adapted. Hidoku shinaide starts off so horribly (which is why I can't read it) but it becomes much more wholesome and actually addresses the issue.
The author of sekaiichi however has not done this but instead made it even worse
I sometimes wonder how such scenes are viewed in Japan. Especially since it often gets handled like this - like he's not completely the victim, while the other party is completely in the wrong. Moments like this should always be the end of any relationship, but here... it's just frustrating in the extreme.
Please don't read this, it's really good but IT IS NOT FINISHED and will never be. It's completed but they never get together and it's not the end od s1 but the real end
Thabk you i wont read it
