I’d hate a head of magic tower so much. The way all these people in the magic tower are treated is awful. Just starting off it has an interesting plot I can see what people in the comments mean about Kal and Yul’s behavior and how it can get frustrating after prolonged exposure. Kal never relenting in any way and Yul suppressing her true feelings/thoughts or not even recognizing thats what she’s doing. I can understand their behavior as defensive mechanisms, but Yul’s makes her suffer less while being jealous a little that she doesn’t put up some fight like Kal.

Creepy Hand + Floating Eye + Demonic energy= Adorable Master Extortionist Granny??
What was all that buildup? And now Hilda is armed with Holy water that she could freely throw and mad dash away instead of performing, but I wonder if it will be a weapon/defense or used to purify something to aid her, Pricilla, or Adrian. Then we go from Adrian’s illegal flirty face to him confronting his mother who may go on to become demon huntress once she’s a bit more stable. I want there to be a mending of their relationship, but keep playing around Mr. Devil and soon Hilda may well become a huntress too.
I keep thinking about the truth being stranger than fiction and Malcolm’s razor as I read. And I wonder if Bobae will ever believe her brothers. I keep getting the warmth from family dedication and acceptance of who a person is and maybe a closer look into a person’s actions instead of words alone. My favorite is Gwihan, I hope that he’s able to keep his sense of self and control the darkness of the demon lord’s power.
The way this story thrusts its characters from a modern world with regular crimes and everyday problems into fantasy/adventure with game style abilities is something else. When I read the promo at first I thought the oldest brother was missing for 6 years (what happened to him?), I had to think what a porter was for the second brother, then the youngest being in a coma also what happened and like their sister said why was he just volunteering outside so much without cleaning up after himself? The litttle sister was doing a lot and it didnt seemed her brothers cared so much for her well being. More pieces came together with the 1 ch, the world being wrecked and so much loss of life by creatures from other worlds that no one was prepared for, they all witnessed their parents slaughter before their eyes. They could have all died, the youngest brother shielded his sister from harm putting him in a coma, and suddenly the oldest was the main and only person able to work in their new world. It didn’t seem like any of them were able to really grieve and their coping with near death, parents death, and sudden powers in their own ways. I hope their family finds healing and their way back to each other along the way.
I think the puns in Korean are cute/sweet wanting to eat your favorite bread (dad, brother), I’m thinking it mainly is cute nonsense to anyone from this world. If she started teaching her fam/friends this new language it probably would increase the lifespan of their servants/staff. Aries keeps surprising me with his likability going up and down but still managing to stay in the 100s. I like that that when he comes to truly love his sister he may see the purpose of having a family that is supportive and genuinely loves you for who you are. That he doesn’t have to be completely by himself even if he takes over the family. Ishion had to see that she never gave up even when she could survive on their dad’s love, but Aries needs her resolve and observation skills. Everything isn’t about just liking her cuteness, he wants recognition, to be on his father’s good side to be the heir, and maybe spending time with a sibling isn’t so bad. (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
Don’t get me wrong I like this isekai storyline it’s quite different with the OGFL being an elf and starting with a bad end. I was wondering about how the FL said that this Otome is very difficult early on, meaning it’s easy to get bad ends. She played through the whole game before dying…I would have liked to know how her mom came to the bad end with the ML who was her father. What was the good ending for him? And even if it was a bad ending couldn’t he keep his wife and child in the palace and make that their cage…was he just about having an elf? I like the mage ML as daddy material. I don’t think I’d want to find out what his bad end would be.
So blondie is fake sweet because of his own personal issues coming from famous actors as parents and dislikes Doya. It’s a learning opportunity for the FL, she didn’t suspect the person who could be approaching her for the wrong reasons, whereas ML had been unusually irritable around her yes, but he’s been upfront and honest. I get she didn’t want his help but they’re co-workers as well, she could have been seriously injured just because she didn’t want to ask him for help. I’m still wondering/excited to see how they become a couple in the future.
Ch 10 shows what the MLs are like regularly but I like how natural it all seems and what a joint date looks like for them. I guess it helps that they’re so close to begin with, I mean I don’t know many besties that have their first time together. They all talk through what they’re going to do, and it’s funny that the FL often talks about showing them grown-up stuff then they expand on it. ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
I just love the full body blush on Lux when viewing all the love bites. I think he realized he’s interested in being a switch when it comes to Hana, and I like his aftercare. ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄

ML’s background is a story of survival, he really didn’t have to help the FL at all and he’d finally be free of his “family” and maybe pave a new life for himself. I’ve always been interested in who he really was and how he became her “fiancé” now I genuinely hope for his happiness and that his first romantic relationship with the FL works out well. Also, I’m wondering what number he was given…will she call him that in the future or will he come up with his own name?
I get how marriage may be rushed since she sees him as a friend or like he said a child to be nurtured since she regained memories of her past. But before marriage, even when they leave or go to the academy they could be roommates and stay in the same house splitting living expenses if she’s able to life away from the school, or they could live right next to each other or nearby. They could date with thoughts of engagement or marriage…if all the scenarios don’t change her mind they could still be besties/family. There doesn’t have to be a separation of long lengths of time, it really just takes talking it through. I guess another lens to take into consideration is how abandoned/alone an orphan already feels ML doesn’t want the genuine warmth from FL to vanish. ┗( T﹏T )┛
I’m picking up vibes that the divine/holy side of things is darker the hellish/demon side. I was thinking early on when FL told ML that demons only lie and hurt, it was very one-sided. If ML has demon blood he can decide what kind of person/being he want to be…he could be honest and protect what’s dear. Just like an angelic being could deceive the masses far better since people lower their guard or discriminate based on appearances. I mean the children who tried to kill a child and who were bullies should be punished differently than those who are seeking shelter from being harassed. All of the images show demons being killed by celestial beings, I’m thinking there’s more to the story and there’s more past the surface.
Like I read in other comments all of the versions of the same soul are so different but there is a core that never changes. This has a very coming of age vibe as her worldview broadens. Plus mad respect for Mito having so many survival skills that she had from the farm and that she learned from time traveling.
*spoiler*
I teared up when she told Ikesu “ I don’t care about strength I just want you to live” after hear about how his family was killed in another life like Garhi’s. I started seeing more of the love of small mammals with Erec and tied that to Rui in present time. Oh that’s right the harvest goddess said that they all were tied to her in some way, so she could have been happy I guess with any of the guys interested in her but only one had the depth of soulmate. (▰˘◡˘▰)
*spoiler*
This is mainly a rant I’m very much enjoying the storytelling.
* I know it’s apart of the journey. I’m impatient…Garhi is the origin (first time she began to look past the surface) but I kept thinking:
-Mito he reminds you of Garhi in the way that he rushes in to protect, can’t help but be drawn to you, is thoughtful of your needs
- brings you the only thing you eat and the goddess said “find your soulmate” not Garhi that may mean something else is going on here.

Go back and check out the sides notes if you haven’t…it always gives a little extra insider info. (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
I’m interested/invested in the personal growth of the FL. I love that the goddess of harvest imparted her with a spiritual journey to find her soulmate. I think the first problem is how she was viewing her perfect guy as, “strong and courageous as these fields.” She was looking purely at the musclely/fit glory on the outside, I get that being built like a Greek god is wonderful, but it doesn’t account for internal strengths, maturity, or what courage really means (being afraid and facing it anyway). (Also sidenote: I liked the guy Rui who responded with “he tends to do that” when being called on during class. Like that easygoing attitude) (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
It’s definitely easy to hate Cliff but I can see the toll the control and love that he has for Lize has on him. First, he’s envious of the sweet moment Killian has with Edith (so natural and intimate) and crushed that he’ll never be enough for her. She’s either stealing both hearts and affections or not happy at all. If she’d stop her tirade she could go toward a path of redemption and give that sad sexy Cliff real love.
*spoiler*
I was pondering what would be true and would be blown out of proportion about the ML. He has survivor’s guilt and PTSD from not being able to stop his cousin and fellow soldiers from dying. And the only biological family he had was the one who stabbed him with a fatal poison. And the rumors and her father’s disappearance also clouded the FL’s judgment about the time he spent in their small village. That’s why people should always observe and talk to the source, the ML is a warrior but he’s not a bloodthirsty murder who would kill his friends. ( ̄ε(# ̄)Σ

All he was thinking before was that Sowah was weak and he’d eat her later. I get tigers are carnivores and predators, but is the main reason the omnivores and herbivores don’t know what they look like is that they stay as far away from them as possible? And when he was an injured cub was it human hunters that did that and killed his parents or something? There’s some things I still don’t get, but you definitely don’t see foxes and tigers together in the wild. I knew he was schemer and some of it was to survive and because he was getting attached, but he’s hard to resist when he says “you’re all I have” my mind went dark as I thought yes you can be endearing but you are the neighbors.
