Now imma need a story on Sebastian, HE’S BEAUTIFUL.
Also wish we could get back to the purple pairing. I don’t have anything against the rabbit and bear, but their relationship kinda mid to me. And bear’s personality is too nosy for me to like.
Imma be fr, I think the best ending is everyone going their separate ways and finding happiness individually, whether that be by being single or with someone entirely new.
Cause ngl, I truly believe it’s the mc/bottoms effect where all is forgiven and ppl will want the MC and ML to end up together in the end. I KNOW ppl would never forgive or at least never want the two mains together had it been a top/ML that cheated with the reasoning being his trauma/insecurities. The first time MC did it could be due to trauma/insecurities, sure give him a free pass. The multiple times after that could be due to manipulation/blackmail on the ex’s part but we forget the reason why it even worked: because the ex was gonna tell the ML that MC cheated on him. And MC didn’t want ML to find out, and that’s why MC continued to cooperate and sleep with him. Rather than telling the truth after that one “mistake” he valued the lie to protect his relationship.
-
I know ppl are gonna come at me because their reasons are MC is realistic and that this is how a true victim of an abusive relationship is. I get that. Hopefully he can heal and improve and reaches true happiness when he’s mentally well. But what I don’t like is when he gets forgiven and gets back together with the same person he cheated on and hurt. He is also the source of another’s pain and potential trauma. Authors have the same thoughts when it comes to MC/bottoms doing something bad and still getting their happy lily ever after with the ML. Because what is this teaching anyone? Showing a realistic abusive relationship and victim can cause them to hurt others, but even when the other party is hurt, they still should be together? There is not much different in the initial action between ex hurts MC, and MC hurts ML. Yet one gets forgiven anyways.
This unfortunately is not the first time bottom mc cheats and the ML will forgive him and get back together with him. And maybe someone will be like: “you don’t know if they’ll end up together yet-!” It’s a good guess based off that cover change and the build up. My wishful thinking is that everyone ends up happy separately.
BRO IDGAF the whole world could hate chaeri, I’ll be the one to stick by her side ╥﹏╥

Things not looking good for chaeri. The girl got enemies and being terrorized. There’s that weirdo creepy dude and the chick (don’t even remember her name) who’s conspiring together to bring chaeri down. Then there’s ILLmi fuckin plotting TOO smirking and shit. And then the next few chapters we get her damn sob story crying and standing on a damn bridge as if she wasn’t planning evil shit the previous chapter?? And guess who saves her???? The purple boy. Istg they better not hook up or reconcile cause ik illmi doesn’t deserve no friendship at least not from him. Not after her sexual assault on him.
This may be too brutal or I just am too used to reading dark stories, but I truly would’ve gone and get her a step stool so she has easier access to get on that railing and jump off that bridge. I’d be like, “about damn time, I’ll lend you a hand too if you want some help!” That or get hit by a truck and break her legs so she can’t become an idol anymore. I’m over and done with her ass. And ppl on the official site are too nice to say anything bad about the characters, so imma say it here.
(Mention/hint of spoilers but nothing detailed at the bottom).
Imma be fr, all three characters have their own annoying af traits.
ML: the most obvious, an ass, possessive, manipulative, it’s in your face so there’s nothing really for me to explain lmao.
MC: stubborn, assumes too much, has some sort of hero complex
Soohwa: ik I’ll get hate for this lmao, but I couldn’t stand him. Logically, ik he didn’t actually do anything wrong, but he reminds me way too much of either the weak shoujo FL or the two-faced green tea/white lotus chicks that act like a damsel in distress and only cries 24/7. I know he has not actually done anything wrong, but the personality type is annoying in general to me. Also the fact that he just willingly is dependent on MC to basically help him every time. No signs of trying to improve and get braver so that MC won’t have to save the day all the time. It’s just the constant crying and clinging.
-
-
Anyways another unpopular opinion: I honestly think MC and ML share the blame of how their relationship went bad. Not just solely ML. ML was obviously the overly possessive friend, red flag. MC on the other hand, seemed to go above and beyond for pity. I also hated how he immediately jumped to soohwa’s defense during the fight with the other friend. He also knew he wasn’t the type to just lash out for no reason. MC felt the need to be a bodyguard for soohwa until the end of highschool?? I get people not understanding ML’s frustration because MC doesn’t own him anything as a friend, but it could be understandable if you viewed it as a lover’s perspective. Like the person you were with for years, suddenly has their attention on someone new and feels like they “can’t leave them alone” like they gotta be their hero. Constantly bringing up the person too or running to them each time.
I know actual people who do have “exclusive besties” where they only consider having one bestie in their life. Naturally ppl would feel bad when the bestie they’ve been with 24/7 for many years suddenly keeps ditching and choosing to go to some new friend. Then also not being able to have a convo without them bringing up their name. I also know many ppl who don’t exactly feel comfortable when someone new/unfamiliar is let into the friend group. It’s like that thing where everyone gotta click with them, not just one person being their friend and then inviting them to everything.

Honestly I’m surprised, basically all the conflict was mainly just in the highschool backstory. Everything else after that was literally just resolving everything. I guess it went more smoothly cause ML was the one to decide to just say whatever he wants and what he actually felt. (Though MC was playing hard to get in the beginning despite wanting him so bad and being the first to jump him). People are probably gonna be mad cause MC just happily accepts the ML’s advances but let’s be real here, the entire story MC never showed to have an issue with ML’s possessiveness or cold words. He was mainly upset about his own feelings being denied and the possibility of not being with ML hurt the most. He was also the one in the beginning to actually get mad at the thought of ML liking/being with someone else. If anything MC himself, was also possessive over ML, just not in an open way.
Feels like the art changed, it isn’t enough to think it’s crazy, but it’s noticeable if you just look at the face. The eye shapes of the FL and ML are different and the guys in the story now have more of a baby face than usual.
Dunno if @/Beng deleted the comment or blocked but:
This you? Under “Crimson Ocean”
https://www.mangago.zone/home/mangatopic/17455152/
Please don’t try and insult readers for simply reading. Especially insulting readers for stuff you regularly read too. Bruh is really blaming ppl for reading this story when they commented that on a story where rape in in the description, rated 5 stars for Codename Anastasia, Corrosive, and Jinx. And bro wants to be righteous and say everyone is sick for reading this when they rave about other rape stories?? Y’all remember everything you do here is public, you can be exposed for being hypocritical.
Say whatever you like about hating the story, but you will be called out once you start insulting ppl.
Honestly it is understandable that the ML would be thrown off by the sudden info. Of course, the ideal reaction would always be “idc I’ll gladly take over as stepfather!” But realistically many ppl wouldn’t want to do that. I know tons of women who also wouldn’t want to be a stepmother. It’s also not great when the person you’re going to be dating hides the fact they have a kid. That’s happened to some girls where they meet this new guy and then find out he lied about not having any kids, and then had to deal with the baby mama issues, etc. There’s also people who don’t want any kids at all. Honestly wanting or not wanting children is a big deal breaker when it comes to pursuing a relationship with a partner.
-
Anyways him asking for her to be looked into, could help more by finding out what happened after the accident. Since even if he asked the FL and she said so truthfully, she doesn’t know that much info that happened. It would help faster if he decided to look into the situation himself. Also ik ppl are gonna be mad that he decided to not communicate and ask her instead, but ngl she did keep it hidden to everyone she possibly could that she has a child. To some it would sound sus or not a big deal so the reason why she hid the child may seem sus. There’s also those typical other plots where FLs have the ML’s kid and whenever he asks, the FL always says that the kid isn’t theirs. There’s the possibility that if she kept important things hidden, she could always lie more about it. Honestly FL did have a lot of time to just tell him about their kid, but kept putting it off and now the truth came out in a worse situation.
There’s so many characters it’s hard to keep up with the names and what every character’s purpose is lmao
Ngl both the puppy dude and FL’s personalities are cute but worry tf out of me. They both seem too naive. Idk how well they’ll pull off this plan of theirs. I can only think a miracle could happen and they both become super geniuses or they somehow get lucky due to plot armor. Cause as they are now, I can’t even see them brainstorm any good fool-proof plan within their mind lmao. Like unfortunately the other two btches are too cunning and are both experienced in being shady and doing underhanded stuff.
The only steps they can take ig is install hidden cameras/mics all over the place (at home, at work). And hope for the btches to just out themselves and do all the work. But even if they get revenge in the way of outing them or blackmail, neither are in a position of having actual protection for if either of the btches snaps and tries to resort to physical harm. This reminds me of A wife’s sweet revenge, where the FL is smart and knows how to plan all the revenge but doesn’t actually have a plan on how to resolve the reactions of those she offended. She truly had plot armor that both the bad dudes she used ended up not holding anything against her. But she also of course didn’t think about potential threats out of retaliation due to the revenge, which hurt people close to her.
Ngl I like them both. They both are two different types I like lmaoo. Why can’t mc have them BOTHHHH. Then everyone can be happy in the enddddd
It’s most likely intentional that all 3 guys look so alike, whether it be the mc’s general type or that the two newest dudes are just a reflection of what he can’t ever forget.
-
Anyways imma be real, I don’t think any of the love interests are good lmao. Heck, I don’t think mc is also capable of being in a good committed relationship either, or is particularly the most innocent. Despite everyone liking heeseop, he just comes off as too odd. Like I’m getting the ick lmao. It’s so weird cause I actually read and have enjoyed stories with yandere MLs, but heeseop comes off as loser stalker with some superiority when facing a rival. And the puppy type personality seems to delude people to thinking he’s an angel?
-
-
-
Anyways yknow what would be wild? If there’s a plot twist that heeseop is actually the mc’s ex, just pretending to be a entirely different identity/personality so he can get back together with him. Cause out of all the 3 guys that have shown up, heeseop looks the most like the ex. And supposedly the “actual” ex appears in the latest chapters, but he has purple eyes which wasn’t the same as before?? Idk, but it would make a lil bit of sense of that theory whenever heeseop would look nervous when he was getting pressed by jinyoung about jihan.
So I just finished reading the novel. To be precise I skipped to the part where Lucia finds out she’s pregnant and then read from that point all the way to the end of the side chapters lmao. So for those that wanna talk about it and have also finished the novel, pls don’t mention anything before that- I’m reading out of order and just going back to further arcs before the main story ending lmaoooo. Anyways big spoilers ig:
Anyways, I liked it, the ending was pretty chill, not much conflict from after that point I started reading at. The only disappointing thing I would mention is the very last side story. (The side stories are long arcs that are separated into parts). The last side story focused on the ancestors and the origin of the pendant that Lucia was able to use to get this second chance at life. But imma be fr, it was boring ngl. I obviously wasn’t gonna be attached to some random ancestors that aren’t directly involved with the any of the main characters. And the origin of the pendant wasn’t even that huge. It didn’t have to be as long as it was. It could’ve literally been summarized in one chapter lol. I would’ve preferred to read about several other characters stories than some random lol.
Like we could’ve gotten more story about what happened to Chris (Damien’s friend who went to travel the world that author decided not to show him again at the end). Or what happened between damien’s mysterious love who he hadn’t found yet. They just left it open ended like that. (Their meeting was those cliche gender bender stories, where a girl pretends to be a boy and attended the academy he went to, and he fell for her while knowing she was a girl. Then she left the academy one day and he couldn’t find her after that. We never got any more info on that)). Or more about their daughter evangeline’s story in the future, maybe meeting her potential love interest. Boys seemed to be interested in her, like the third prince Ethan, or Chris’ younger brother Jude. Or even the possible hint of Roy’s son (around the same age as eve) being sent personally by Hugo, as a future knight to protect evangeline. Or even the scene where Lucia gives the important brooch as a gift to Hugo, we never got to see his reaction. Or the ending of the story where Lucia and Hugo met in the original timeline. There were so many potential side stories to choose from but the origin of the pendant was it??
So idk anything about the story but I just read some spoilers, but if people are disappointed because they don’t like the spoilers but liked the initial set up:
Save My Love, about a manhua is the top’s POV who transmigrated into an abusive man’s body. There he meets the partner that the body had, in which the MC/top helps and takes care of the bottom. The bottom eventually does also recognize that the MC is not the same as the original.
Sooo we’re getting the antagonist’s sob story where her mother was the one getting cheated on, so that how the antagonist thought it was a good idea to be a homewrecker just like the one that hurt her mother?? Bffr. It also didn’t change the fact that she attempted murder on a pregnant woman smh.
And ppl were saying the new dude should be 2nd lead or that this should turn into a harem- LMFAO bffr. There’s the result of that though lollll. I’m surprised he didn’t hesitate to do that in front of him tho, thought he’d sneakily do that instead
Crazy how this flashback sequence is what made people love mincheol and support them being together or defend him on tiktok smh
-
Anyways at least the ending part was surprising
Ngl I think as soon as the first season ended and the next season started focusing on the kids, it got so much more interesting lmao. The fact that it had so much action, more devils, more powers, more mystery, drama, etc. made it so much more entertaining. I’ve been so invested fr, especially during the whole war.
I think both kids are really cool with their powers and stuff but when it comes to relationship stuff, I’m not really invested in yura’s. I won’t lie cause organ and yura physically look cute when she’s her awakened self, but the development was meh. A lotta times I cringed at their love development lmao I could not take it seriously. On the other hand, I’m actually more interested in yoohyeon’s relationship instead. Maybe it’s cause the story focused a lot on him but I also just find his powers and personality to be so interesting. He is so OP.
On another note, I’m not that bothered by the actual age gap relationship thing (and the family procreation stuff since it looks like everyone is related to someone like in mythology lmfao, I’m used to seeing that). Since the father already hinted that devils grow differently/faster than humans. You can easily see that when they’re significantly bigger and smarter than regular four year olds. Also they constantly refer to the kids as non-humans, the daughter being a devil/Lucifer, and the son being an entirely new race. I assume they were already mentally older than the human ages. As well as the fact that literally everyone didn’t bat an eye and accepted their growth so easily. It HAS to be the norm for devils.
The only thing I’d point out is that the ACTUAL parents of yura and yoohyeon have got to be the ones who still have the least screentime and haven’t spent actual time conversing with the kids. It felt like the uncles had more conversations with them and the two addition lucifers spent more time with each kid separately than their own parents.
Oh and it’s the fact that shiwon is someone who I literally was getting the ick from whenever he was trying to get with ina, had so much character development to the point that I actually enjoyed his character later on. He’s like the second most interesting to me now. (First is yoohyeon).
Some other mentions of possible spoilers:

I REALLY hope the author changes it but apparently yoohyeon doesn’t end up with anyone :( Ngl I also feel like they’re hinting towards BL though (don’t come for me, I wouldn’t have minded if it’s BL or straight, it’s just the vibe of it leans that way to me, or at least too much queerbaiting lol).
Yknow at the beginning and middle of the story, kyungmo seemed to be more of a normal antagonist and the levels of how bad he was was equivalent to jooah. But tbh, idk what’s going on with the writing, but it seems like more recently they’ve been turning his character more into a ridiculous clown. Like now he’s giving off comedic dumb vibes that are not meant to be taken seriously. It also feels odd that now it feels like due to this change in personality, they’re shifting all blame/consequences onto him only.
It feels so weird cause I feel like the author really wants jooah to be forgiven and portrayed as pitiful now, just cause she seemed to calm down. But I guess the story still needs to have some conflict and drama so the author wanted to push all negative stuff on kyungmo alone and let him take the full fall? When I see revenge stories, I like to see them played through to the end, to every single person who wronged the mc. I don’t exactly enjoy it when one gets forgiven or the lesser revenge because one is more liked or the other is less liked. It just irritates me I guess cause maybe they hinted that jooah would get more of a free pass early on since that time people called her out on being a homewrecker/cheater at school and then taerin had to be the angel and defended her (despite being the one that implied it in the first place for everyone to see).
Like are we supposed to forget she tried to be a homewrecker at least TWICE behind the scenes/during the filming of the show?? So that’s at least three times of being a homewrecker. Once actually stealing mc’s man, other two times trying to steal mc’s current man again. I’m 100% convinced she’s only mellowed out now cause her kyungmo isn’t great and she’s not getting the fame she wanted. Had her bf actually been some dreamy ideal dude and she’d gotten the fame, I think she would’ve still been smug and looking down on the mc. She only is acting this way now cause she lost everything. She has not apologized yet to mc and I don’t think it would be sincere enough anyways.
-
Honestly my bare minimum hope when it came to the revenge is if it played out that jooah and kyungmo just make each other miserable and constantly be mad and fight with each other to the end while seething with jealousy as taerin and yoonsik happily move on with their lives. MC and ML don’t even need to do anything. What I want is at least the two cheaters create their own misery by using their own selfish and attention-seeking personalities naturally.
I might be the only one who actually likes doha and bada regardless of them not liking anyone else. It was known from the start that doha was a Yandere type and bada personally has seen him kill multiple times and also didn’t he see doha kill a villager once before? (Literally chapter 1 lmfao).
I don’t mind the whole doha wanting to keep bada in the game or bada possibly not trusting anyone but doha. I already guessed the first part and knew what I was getting myself into, the second I love cause it reminds me of the zombie apocalypse/killing game stories where it’s two people that solely depend on each other (and that’s my fave lmao). I also love MCs that are on the colder side who truly don’t give af about righteous saving ppl, etc. Anyways i feel like bada is clearly aware of how distrustful doha is, but he also has doha to thank for the countless times of receiving his help and beings saved. He’s also his “comfort” where he temporarily forgets about the stressful game while having moments with him.
