It’s not really a love triangle and neither is it a 3p.

It’s a short story and SUPER rushed. MC sleeps with two guys separately and chooses one. Quickly has sex in both scenes and ends quickly. Hardly any “love” shown. The two love interests don’t even know each other or interact.

But then again mc saying he wants to find the man he slept with- just based off the sex, should be expected that mc doesn’t have much deep feelings

Oof

Sad to see how their relationship went from a classic sweet enemies to lovers to just toxic. I guess it’s the result of choosing to abandon her husband and child, so their relationship will never be the same (I get her reasonings btw, and I’m not saying it’s just her fault, just pointing out that everything changed for the worse once she made that decision).

It’s definitely conflicting cause she had to choose between her mom or her new family, I just personally don’t think I could stomach leaving my child at least

At first when I was reading the story, it was interesting but I also thought it was a simple BL with badass MC plot. As the story goes and I read further, I really think the plot gets so much better. There’s a lot more deeper things to the characters and all their traumas. Pretty much everyone in the story has their own messed up background and has depth to their characters.

There’s also mentions of split personality in more than one character. It especially becomes interesting delving into the dad of the mc. At first you think he’s just a straight to the point evil guy and the set up was just the classic abusive dad doing horrible things for the sake of giving the mc a traumatic backstory. But the fact that the dad also has split personality, makes it so much more crazy. Imagine how complex the emotions must be when you realize that the one who does all the evil things to mc is one personality and the one who has always been kind is the original personality. It’s so complicated because the evil personality of the father left so many scars on mc, but mc feels conflicted and remembers the good of the dad. (And almost everyone doesn’t know the dad has split personality, they just assume he turned for the worse).

So I saw the new art and I think everyone complaining is insane and over dramatic. The art objectively is closer to “manhwa” style with higher quality. People are crying about how the new art is horrible when that’s not the case. If the new art was the original art and the original art started in season 2, I absolutely believe every complainer would say that the first season art was a downgrade.

They’re just not used to the new style. I totally get it if people can’t get behind the new art because it’s such a change- it takes some getting used to. Some character designs look very different. I personally think BOTH art styles are good and the first season’s are unique. It looks like the original writer took over the art for the second season. If you just look at the writer’s social media, their art is GREAT. It just takes time to get used to the switch

Just started this and ngl the demons look like ordinary humans. Wish there were more demon-like features (the eyes are barely noticeable). The novel art cover makes the FL’s appearance look way more intimidating

I don’t really care for suchan turning human, cause he’s got plot armor as the mc, he’ll likely just turn back into an insect again anyways. I actually think it may be important for suchan to have this tiny arc where he gets to experience being human again and actually feel if this is how he wants his life to be, rather than guessing if he’ll regret it or not. Cause before his decision to stay was simply to defeat breeder, this could make him realize he may really like his insect appearance as a life than just fighting.

Although I don’t think the plan of curing everyone is smart since that turns them into a defenseless human again. Breeder can just along with his plan to infect the planet as much as he wants and with the current nest being all turned into humans, they can’t fight back- yet they’re the ones most trained to fight.

Like what another person said below, the only plan I can think of that would be good is if they somehow turned the Cinderella into a gas and just release it into the air so everyone can breathe it in, that includes the antagonists being turned into humans. They have a good amount of people, money, skills, and brains to do the same thing breeder did but with the antidote.

Aw

I think this would’ve been better if it just focused on ogbf and FL. The bf is soooo cute, and they’re both so cute as a couple. They literally de-cuntified her and took all her piercings away

I like the second pair, I feel like there’s an increase of readers just being mad there’s more than one couple. Some of yall just gotta chillll. The pink haired dude was literally mentioned in the description, he’s another character whose pov is part of the story. I’m convinced reader’s minds are deteriorating and only able to handle love and sex of one pair- not thinking about anything else lmfao. They’re like “we wanna see sex and relationship of the main couple only!!” Just further establishes why other readers think BL readers are just gooners that can’t handle anything else about plots but relationships and sex.

So the story finished and has the side stories out. The ending was kinda meh but the side stories followed up on the ending.

Basically it looks like she ended up with the childhood friend (which is great). He’s the guy with piercings who has loved her and waited by her side the entire story. There’s also genuine love between them. The FL and ML are both cautious and nervous around each other due to their history. It’s like “first love” relationship where they get nervous holding hands lol. It’s sweet because they both even only shared their feelings and look happy.

There is also an alternate route/what if side story, where she gets with the other guy(?)
I’m unsure if they’re official in that side story, since it looks kinda open. But anyways they gave the “what if” side story for readers who liked him. And the Korean comments definitely were happy about it. In my opinion, it looks off. Sure the guy did help with her revenge, but it’s been made a point that he was mainly attracted to her because of her “broken” appearance. He pretty much loved when she was depressed. So it feels like a red flag route. Even in that “what if” story, he appealed to her with lust and maybe some talking while sleeping together. The feelings don’t seem genuine and the FL also looked reluctant.

Yall complainers are so annoying lmfao. This sadly reached the wrong audience. Where the “Fate makes no mistakes” or “19 days” understanding audience when you need them. It’s basically like those two stories where there’s a first couple who gets their part, and then later blends with another couple.

Those other stories have better readers than this one. They’re yapping when safari game is the reason golden pair even exists.

Bro

I’m convinced the author is milking every last drop they can get out of this “fairytale highschool love story background.” Because we STILL aren’t getting even a millimeter of the bad memories that happened before the cheating event and neither are we getting anything on taeha’s background 69 CHAPTERS IN.

How much do yall wanna bet that the author will decide to START revealing taeha’s background or the bad memories of mincheol, at chapter 100? This feels like it will reach 100+ chapters by the way it’s getting dragged. I don’t mind relationship development chapters, but when it’s just focused on gathering more mincheol sympathy points, it’s just repetitive. All these nice memories keeps trying to say “look how great mincheol was in the past!” But what does it do to progress the story in the present? At this rate, I’d be more satisfied with the toxic brother and dad making moves to progress the plot than focus on the past that won’t change the future.

I’ll say it now, both love interests aren’t good. The hair stylist (taehan) is self explanatory so I don’t have to explain why he’s no good. But I’m surprised people don’t see how the friend (woori) is also not a good choice. Either people let a puppy type delude them into thinking he’s a green flag or they just really dislike taehan and would settle for anyone else.

Woori is veryyy pushy. His overflowing love for danwoo seems it’ll explode one day. Take note of the fact that woori does take advantage of how danwoo is dense and thinks that this is how friends act.

And here’s the SPOILER to the oncoming chapters of why I think woori is also no good:
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
He’s already pushing past boundaries that danwoo said. As danwoo is excited for a sleepover with his friend, woori is getting all horny. Danwoo is on his phone laying on his bed, and woori takes it upon himself to dry hump danwoo like a dog in heat. Then he tries to continue, putting his dick up to his hole, touching his body, trying to kiss him as danwoo tells him to stop more than once. When danwoo rejects his advances, he gets mad, has a rant about not wanting to be just friends, being upset about seeing taehan and him together, and cries about how he loves danwoo.
-
-
-
It’s not helping at all that danwoo is an airhead, naive, and easily gives into pleasure. He reminds me of the usual mc’s in harem mangas that get flustered and blush at every little thing. Every character here has issues. But I dislike it when people ignore one character’s flaws just cause he’s a puppy type on the surface.

It’s unfortunate because the character designs are great but this has got to be my least favorite work the author has done. I liked their previous works better. But I guess whenever a good author makes a love triangle and wants to go down the drama route, it just goes downhill from there. I see this happen way too much recently (authors of heesu in class 2, k’s secret, fools, yours to claim author, and this author). It’s like they want to prove they can write drama after their fluff works, but they really just make toxic scenarios imo.

I honestly think a spin off of the girl friends of mc would be fun. The girl’s personalities are so entertaining and they fr will fight for mc lmaoo. The way they defend her 24/7 and also scold Miura all the time is funny.

Anyways I will say, this isn’t the first time this whole love rival situation happened. It’s not the first time Uka cried due to it, and not the first time miura reacted only after she was hurt. This is basically the same as the time the current pixie cut girl acted like Uka around Miura. Miura saying “we almost kissed” like wdym “WE.” Like no shit she can’t believe in you when you gave her reasons to feel insecure. I do feel like he said that purposefully in a misleading way cause he was upset. And the whole him rejecting new rival chick but immediately acting all friendly in the same exact scene was irritating.

It’s crazy cause I have a HIGH tolerance towards MLs, that includes green flags, red flags, and black flags. With red and black flags, at least everyone is fully aware how the ML will be. But with “green” flag MLs in shoujo, it bothers me more when things are often brushed off or solved so easily. It’s like Miura constantly does damage control due to his nonchalant-ness and slow reaction instead of learning from past experiences.

And don’t even get me started on Takamine (the black haired fboy). He’s such a BITCH. He’s always got nasty shit to say and won’t mind his own damn business. Constantly tearing down Uka whenever she’s in a low moment. We get it, you love d-riding Miura. Someone really need to check him on the way he talks to Uka. Whether that be Miura or the girl friends. I did notice the fact he chose to say shit when uka was alone instead of everyone else.

chocobuun created a topic of Half of Me

I read the novel and their relationship is cute. It’s slow burn most of the way, but after resolving the situation with Taekin, it focuses on their relationship for the last arc.

It confused me cause someone shared a spoiler on the novel said that only had sex in the sides or that the story ended as soon as the mc confessed- which wasn’t what I read? There was a good amount of chapters developing their actual romantic relationship, them dating, having sex, etc. (Heechan even looked to be addicted lmao. He got upset when his plans were canceled and was like “now I can’t have sex with Minjae?!”) The novel is short imo with 30 chapters and 3 side stories.

I will say minjae is a schemer as he’s dating heechan. He’s sorta stalkerish but not yandere level. The typical rich dude that uses his money/power to keep tabs on heechan
(⌒▽⌒)
I don’t think he was romantically interested in heechan back in high school and neither when he met heechan again earlier in the story. He developed feelings overtime as he got to know heechan. But back then, he did notice heechan and was intrigued by him (not romantically).

Cesare’s full of utter shit. He’s two faced just like the sister. Only acts “cute” in front of the FL but is a terrible person overall. He’s obsessed with her now and kisses her, weds her against her will, no consideration for her feelings. And before he was obsessed, he would be overjoyed at the thought that he took Alphonso’s previous person away. The author COULD have written him to have character development and I genuinely could’ve seen potential in them remaining good friends. But his selfishness gets in the way of that.

Anyways alphonso looks hot with the long hair. Hope he keeps it that way

chocobuun created a topic of The Trapped Beast

Reading comprehension is low for those who hate hill lmao. All you guys care about is love and family, when you don’t understand the character’s struggles whatsoever. Hill went through a whole postpartum depression, was locked in the palace walls from one kingdom to another, hunted down, on the run while pregnant, giving birth while people threatened him and fought outside the house. All he wanted was to BREATHE and LIVE freely. He still couldn’t even experience happiness or full freedom because he has to live in hiding still, and live in the damn woods. Hill has been pulled around in every direction, in a depressed state for so long. Hill loves the ML and their child, but he has never put himself first until now. Let me just say that the ML is part of the reason he’s so depressed. He wasn’t like this in the beginning, and was more affectionate. And it’s the fact that the danger is proven as FACTS as we speak. The new antagonist is literally plotting to hunt both hill and the brother. So it further proves it was a good decision to leave for everyone’s safety.

You all are thinking of this like it’s a modern story where he just easily walked away. He’s a Royal from the ENEMY country. He will be in danger if he stayed if the people found out. Then that danger could be passed onto the child if they found out the child’s mother was an enemy royal. Why did no one think of that extremely obvious fact?? Cause these people hating on hill don’t have any reading comprehension whatsoever. It’s so irritating seeing so many dense readers who spout nonsense about characters and a story they don’t even understand. They literally see one thing they don’t like and dumb it down to satisfy their hatred.
