oh no the uncle nephew incest thing is still going strong i’m shocked
I would've never accepted this normally too but you have to look at the context. They are Egyptian gods. All of them are family the wives are cousins or sisters of their husband bc they all are descendant from the giants. (And they are so different that they don't look like family) Not trying to force you into reading this or anything I'm just trying to make you understand how I see this bc I think you should take the context into consideration
Context matters dude.. pls dont reduce the pantheon to humane terms like incest when they are the personification imagery of science and creation. All these gods represent a fraction of the cosmic process that explain the creation of habitable environment and birth of life on earth.. gods are complete infinite beings in themselves n their offsprings are their equal counterparts they don't have human relation ties. Ancient egyptians worshiped and acknowledged the elements by personifiying them for idolatry n ritual practises. But theyre literally natural n scientific elements or 8 fold path philosophical representation of cosmic order aka justice, chaos, order, Knowledge, love, etc etc. Treat them as such n u will be able to shed the human lense perspective u have
Thank you for explaining it again, my answer sucked tbh
Noo it didnt its literally okay. I just added my bit. Just a bit of correction I'd like to make if u dont mind (=・ω・=) ie... Egyptian gods arent descended from any giants. Acc to theory, at first there was the void aka cosmic ocean /waters named nun from which amun separated n upon an island like mound that emerged, Ra came to be aka energy aka light personified n Ra self birthed tefnut n shu aka air and moisture (Ra also birthed love fertility and anarchy). air n moisture in turn gave birth to sky and land aka nut n geb who brought about life(osiris) magic/invention/miracles(isis) and chaos (seth).
These are the primordial main beings n the rest are geographical local personification of elements like rivers winds fire soil etc etc yk a diety to preside over stuff. I think gods descended from giants are in greek? Im not sure
it doesn’t matter what their meant to represent if i can identify that the author is trying to squeeze as much incest porn and rape into the plot as subtly as possible
its strange to say not to apply humane terms to them when they are referred to with humane terms throughout the series, especially through the interfamilial relationships they have. i don’t need to shed the “human lense perspective” i have to recognize a poorly written story and my multiple gripes with this series don’t start or end with the incessant depictions of incest or rape
The author isnt trying to squeeze as "much porn or incest" do u realise thats literally how its written and worse in the actual mythology ( ・－・). And there's a difference between humane vs humanity. And i literally told u the scientifically based spiritual logic behind why theyre depicted thru interfamilial relationships. Even in this manhwa its been stated again n again that gods are complete independent beings with no concept of familiar bonds whatsoever from who theyre borne of. Theyre equivalent to their creator primordial beings and back in those days incest was an acceptable + readily practised norm among powerful egyptians and thats just what they applied as well to their understandings of the world and elements around them. Hydrogen n oxygen make water its a fact. Now if I were to re imagine hydrogen n oxygen as siblings who are couple as well that doesnt change the fact of what they are neither make my version any relevant to reality. That's simply my perspective as How I would like to imagine them. If I make up a humane emotional dramatic story behind creation of water that's my rendition not the truth neither it makes the compounds humane.
And u just said u randomly check up on this manhwa aka your reading is surface level and if thats really how it is then I do not have anything to hold discussion since that's your personal bias n opinion which ofc u have the right to express or view as u wish but its a pity if the incest factor holds u back from reading this cuz its not really a poorly written yaoi slop. The author puts a lot of efforts n the characters are intricately written with grey morality and layered complexity. Then again its my opinion.. anyway thats all on my end(￣∇￣")
“i want to be in a relationship with you”
“i dont lol”
and then when he mentions interacting with a friend you get jealous? oh fucking brother
skipped to the most recent chapter after i stopped reading around chapter 125/30ish, where is dookie
lmao this is such ass writing, dan doesn’t want to be found but opts to take a picture with od other people who will more than likely post and share the picture while jk has been trying to find him for months, wow i wonder what will happen next!
He might not have been aware of how much he is searching him. They parted ways with such a bad event and Jaekyung used to chase out his partner when he is no longer interested in them (the previous boytoy who spoke badly to Dan)
anyone else think its moving p fast? like the demon lord appearing this early kinda scares me, like I would have thought you would need much more than 100 people to summon the demon lord and even so an entire arc could’ve been dedicated to the build up of people planning to summon him
regardless, dont read this and think i dont like the series, i do it’s just an interesting choice to bring up what i assume is going to be the main series antagonist so early. then again he more than likely isn’t going to appear again for a while after these 3 minutes
It is pretty early for him to appear since he's supposed to be one of the strongest entities in their world (i think ?) But since Kiyoshi is so strong right from the beginning of the manga it's kind of necessary for an equal opponent to appear, otherwise once he conquers his fear of demons (which he's already starting to do) the story would just go nowhere.
Also it did only take 100 souls to summon the demon Lord but it was facilitated by wtv that one guy's name was and he was only able to stay for three minutes so it's a pretty reasonable amount of souls imo
why do writers feel the need to include graphic rape scenes, they could have shown the roofie scene then him lying on the bed, ended the scene and it would’ve had the same effect
Guilty pleasure.
Believe it or not, many readers find pleasure from fictional cheating.
So authors make graphic scenes for, knowing people will definitely anticipate.
being raped = cheating ???
i thought the last chapter was bad but wow this seals it, yeomin was a strong character but this naive babyfied caricature rather than an actual character, cause im sure after this he’s going to forgive him and go about his days
side note; just cause a character has a redemption arc that doesn’t make make their past actions redeemable or them a good person ☠ you don’t rape someone have a redemption arc and then you’re just a good person now thats not how it works
preach
I COULDN'T STOP LAUGHING AT YOUR COMMENT OH MY GODDDD “naive BABYFIED CARICATURE???!?” LMFAOOOOO IM DYINGGGG
DID THEY LIE THOO
you can’t process a backstory and trying to go from point a to point b?
