I kinda want Tina to just kill everyone. Isis is clearly being manipulated. I’ve lost confidence in her compared to Ben. I just want Astina to kill everyone and then just peace out and live her life for herself. She’s been dealing with so much bullshit. Like terroid said he doesn’t love her so fine, just leave

.Just reread this and I have to say, it overall declines hard when Norman’s suicide squad is introduced. The ideas are all great, but something about the tone or like, the believability of the story shifts with those four characters. Like, their introduction very starkly marks a point in the story where, “yeah I could believe based on what we’ve seen in the story that these children could do these things” ends and, “oh okay we’re just gonna use magic now.” Begins which is fine! Just like, feels like kinda two different writers
The drama of this scene is greatly diminished compared to the novel where she didn’t know who the author was at this point, the duke still distrusted/didnt care about her, she has been greatly beaten, the guards found her on their own after like a week where she had dressed in shabby commoner clothes and had bought a hobo kit and used hit potatoes to stay warm. Like, she was so much more pathetic here and genuinely still trying to run away at this point in the novel, but I think they’re trying to give the duke, cliff, and the princess a bigger role in the WEBTOON, and allowing the duke and cliff to actually be redeemed I guess? I was okay with them being punished by the author finally using their own personality instead of acting like lize be the punishment as she greatly decreased their reputation
I showed Leo’s apologizing scene to my husband and he literally was like, “that’s you.” I’m so into how realistic this is. Like, maybe their personalities are a bit extreme opposite ends of some kind of spectrum but they stay true to character and act like a couple actually trying to work it out when given the chance. I think Leo’s still gonna fuck up but he’s clearly really trying, and tbh, JJs plan worked so he clearly knows Leo well
Preshati litteraly just telling Theo “I love you” in every way possible till smooching. Does it hurt, are you okay, you can take your gloves off with me. Girl has created an entire new love language for the lapelions
I can tell people hate Leo but he’s so sheltered and such he doesn’t know how to treat people right. It’s not that he’s actively treating them bad, he just doesn’t see that he’s not treating JJ well, ut it’s clear as day to me that he loves him and just assumed he never had to say it. On the other hand it’s obvious JJ is just insecure and too quite to say anything. This is such good drama, they both have so much growing to do and I’m here for it. I thought they were gonna tease Leo in an accident/ almost dying way later, but maybe next time it’ll be way more serious
It’s so beautiful! This might be one of the only stories, 2 of 2, that I’ve read where it’s a beautiful positive relationship between a mother and a daughter. I love how her mother gets her redemption immediately so we can just see their love this whole story while lyrica save fyord
It’s not deep or anything but I love how this car dealership scene went. Like, the lady who recognizes and supports their family of three just gets them. He immediately turned seal xD
Didn’t this entire story start out with this entire world being a game or a story with windows popping up for her? Goddamn it people who said the ending sucked were right…
I started reading this manga around the time Michael first was introduced in the Hong Kong arc (over a decade ago), and then I dropped it around the time Sudo was first introduced. Just binged it and WOW is this a fever dream toward the end! This could have ended chapter 87: all enemies are dead or caught, asami realizing and admitting he loved takaba, takaba finally getting respected enough to be allowed to go to such a dangerous environment instead of being treated like a child… then nah, secret agent arc lmaoooo and I agree, everyone looks like a twink now
I don’t want to spoil anything here, so all I’ll say is, this couple has been known to role play, where kang specifically stops to ask if yiyoung is okay with the intensity when he’s not sure (from on or off). They are the type to have a safe word and know when it’s actually too far. Because this is a work of FICTION, we get to see yiyoung’s thoughts, and it’s literally he is just not feeling the type of sex kang is giving. Spoiler.

The wording is very purposefully confusing here, and imo, the author is definitely taking some shady liberties in actively choosing the language theyre using, but we find out later yiyoung loved how aggressively jealous the sex was. So I came to read the official translation carefully with that foresight, and see that yiyoung only really refuses because of their “no office sex rule” and is kinda fighting because he doesn’t want to cum too quickly. other than that he is 100 into getting dicked down ¯_(ツ)_/¯ the Korean readers were also icked here and were debating if this was a fantasy or not (it’s not)
I see why without that foresight this is worrying to some, but I think it was on purpose to make you worry, not to give you the ick. Y’all wouldn’t have survived okane ga nai and viewfinder era yaoi; rape in 2000s era bl was a lazy plot device to show a characters obsession with another, and manga/manhua aren’t totally free of that trope yet…..
It’s going a bit differently than the novel!

.Edith being beaten to being nearly unrecognizable was significant, after she escaped and was found by the duke’s men, it’s what proved her innocence in front of killian, and it was never questioned whether or not her being beaten would help prove her innocence, so I wonder how it will all go here since it seems like she is foreshadowing that it won’t save her in this version of the story, plus she wasn’t even beaten as badly here.
I dropped this back when sudo was just starting to be introduced wtf lmaoooo this series has become a fever dream and I’m here for it I guess? I’ve followed this series from onemanga to mangafox to here, I’ll see the end from the grave if I have to.
Reread after getting the notification for the official chapters and I definitely need hofflander’s story!
Ok so terroid does love astina, but it’s fair if he is emotionally drained. Astina is now just realizing that despite her own trauma, she has been selfish and not done much to heal herself from her own trauma internally rather than getting external help from terroid, on top of everything else he’s been giving her. The only thing about this story that worries me now is if this is “actually only the beginning.” And now Tina genuinely has to win over terroid whereas before they were together out of comfort and convenience
Of her falling out of love was so good. They really dropped the ball on their redeveloping their relation ship. It’s also way too corny and immature given all the shit that’s happened. Also zero 2nd Ml development. They should have had Jeremy and rion be a single character to give a good reason for him leaving the picture, and make it more dramatic when they were kinda together. Like if lizenas house was a fallen dukedom and Jeremy was the missing younger brother. I can’t give this a 1 because of how good the beginning was but I’m at a loss on how to rate it :/
I really love that they’re kinda adding a realistic take of them like, kinda having conflict over their age gap. Doyeon pokes that fault in their relationship, but he’s so clearly not a 2nd ML because yiyoung doesn’t care about him. Like yiyoung really gives off “young guy part of the modern gay community” unlike other stories where it’s always some popular king of the club. Yiyoung is like so realistic as a person even if his situation is far fetched, so it’s nice that there’s some realistic conflict over their age gap even if the actually events are a bit over dramatic and silly.
