yuka being a jerk to yatora sometimes. i know they're jaded and at the end of day trying to make yatore see reality is a good lesson for him. but if yatora is mentally weaker than he is, i dk what will become of him. and sometimes i think yuka also has their own (a little bit) selfish motive.
honestly i feel this time it could end badly, just leave my man a break. it's not that wrong to have someone he idolize and put on pedestal, it's not like he interact with her daily
AAAA that's why sometimes i love gag manga more than other manga. at first they're just silly but when the story become deeper more emotional with cool action it will really hit because of the contrast (and i wouldn't expect plot twist from a gag manga so i never able to guess them)
for example gintama and katekyo hitman reborn. one piece's silly jokes are also gag.
although hua qingyun has displayed his skill and knowledge to other people before, it was never in this grand scale. also he was previously known for his talisman, not alchemy. i am really curious what will happen after this, he probably will be known from now on as an alchemy genius. i think this event should be a turn over for his reputation and overall story since he won't be as inconspicuous as before. i hope author can handle this well and not suddenly erase this event from everyone's mind.
also, at a glance it seem he has shown his real strength, but actually he only just learned alchemy, it's a new skill that he hasn't explored and probably hasn't thought to hide it, how to hide it, or how much to hide. so i think it's not that ooc, and after all this adventure with junior sister he probably changed a bit to not hide so much.
Moreover, i think he accidentally hiding deeper. alchemy and talisman are usually not seen as frontline combatant, meanwhile hua qingyun's true value should be as a DPS (or at least what he tried to hide so much). so imagine in the future war, he can be a great worker in the frontline, working to death, but instead everyone will wish him to stay from the strife and provide support from backline since his alchemy skill is that valuable. so instead of working, he can stay behind and even play pill gacha, with free ingredients, and get rewarded from it too. truly genius move.
so i just realized able to stop working on time is not the same as hiding from the world. that's probably why hua qingyun isn't that anxious of being found out a bit as long as it doesn't interfere with his lifestyle.
this is used to be fluff and cute okay but i will admit it this stuff actually almost problematic
a high scholer run away from home, choosing to live with a man who help her and doesn't see her like a creep - this much still okay barely
the man apparently her fan - the premise of the story so can't be erased
but the little tidbits such as: the ex who lied to her parents they're still going out and she didn't get her repercussions (somehow they still talked), the strict dad who somehow allowed her daughter to live with a male stranger (do you really care about your daughter??), the friend who only gives advice for his own benefits instead of seriously worrying about her, and then this fanatic fan who stalk them and i am worried this guy not going to get his repercussions too
what i mean is the characters' actions aren't the best and seem like author don't know what to do with them and just want to advance the romance plot thus... i just realized these people are either rivals or hindrance to their romance, literally plot devices that aren't polished well and their vibe make me uncomfortable and the resolution to each problem are not the best
what i mean this is the kind of story where it focuses on romance and every side characters are just obstacles to the couple, and basically plot devices. i just thought it's going to be a fluffy healing story. well maybe it has been a while since i read an average japanese romcom. it's kinda disappointing since recently i read other genres.
the rules are illogical and the whole story relied on this to have a story in the first place.
how come there is no amaha queen who opposed to this, if people relied heavily on her power, why no one think to use that to their advantage? the amaha queen literally has them on her mercy. AND if only the obedient one who can't see that is choosen, idk why author think it'll make a good story to follow such a weak FL. obviously everything are just a plot device. i am too annoyed to even swoon at the ML. He's different from others in story sure, but technically what he did/thought was just basic human decency so he didn't actually have a plus.
other world building are also all over the places and just come one after another. i think i will only read this when i want to bad mouth something to relieve stress











alright the little sister actually not that bad
children can be very unreasonable, but that's why parents have to guide them. but the parents here enabled her to act more unruly
she also met the fiance first without knowing who he was, so i think at least she genuinely had a crush towards him. it's the fiance who is the trash for easily get swayed
then as teenagers, she just did what she usually do, and people around her also believed her because of her natural confidence and charm (it such a shame to use it for negative stuff)
it all began in childhood. but there are many people like this irl too, and tbh it's not too late for them to change
*not too late bc they are still teenagers. unfortunately this is noble society so the repercussions of the act can be more devastating
Especially since teens at that era are considered adults who are still tied down to noble/family lineage. So like an adult still being under the surveillance of their family until they got married and inherit the noble title (There's still parental/blood-related people influences and the such). So liek it's kind of too late. I agree on this comment
