Ok, I've been really trying to think about who Doha could be this whole time and I've had 0 theories until now. I think he was supposed to be a twist villain in the game.
My reasoning is that he 1)randomly killed that one villager or whatever and 2)is capable of killing the killer and 3)we never see him die (iirc). I think the killer is his partner that he set up this whole killing trip with. It's common for a slasher to have someone in their ear, and I think that's Doha.
So you may ask, why did he kill the killer after Bada confessed? Since obviously he wouldn't know that the killer would come back after being killed, he genuinely wanted to kill the slasher for Bada's sake. I don't think that the slasher is someone important to him, I think he's a convenient pawn that can be manipulated. I think he's trying to prevent Bada from both finishing the game and discovering that he's the twist villain. That's also why Doha has this uncomfortable and eerie vibe to him, how chill he is with killing and accepting this whole situation.

But the killer doesn't bat an eye to kill Doha and the latter doesn't really seem to avoid confrontation either, which results in either kill or be killed. If Doha had plans before becoming conscious, I don't think the killer was part of them. Maybe there's a deeper story to Doha and his relationship with the other characters that are key as to why he came and why he killed that person. Bada's character supposedly was only tagging along with his brother and wasn't really acquainted with the brother's friends, but Idk about the others. Bada's info on the game characters and their rs with one another is very scarce imo.

I think as enjoyers of fiction that we all know by now not to believe what we're told, and only to believe what we see. And even sometimes to question what we see. Have you watched the movie "scream"? I don't want to spoil it for people that haven't seen it, but we watch a character die to the killer, only for it to be revealed that he faked it and was in fact partners with the killer.
I don't watch horror too often, so I can't say how often this trope happens. But Nick Jonas' character in "scream queens" also fakes his death and is partners with the killer.

It's kinda slow paced. I'm 13 chapters in, but it feels like nothing has happened. So far it's just been "rich guy gets spoiled by even richer guy" which I don't really have a problem with, I like when the mc gets spoiled by the ml in anything I read. But that's all it's been, there's nothing to really chew on yet.
I get the basics of what the story is going to be, so maybe I'm just impatient in wanting it to get there? Like we get it, he's weirded out by how ml knows stuff, he has bad "dreams" and he was abused by his family. Can we actually do something with all that now?
Or maybe I just wish he wasn't so shocked and humble at every turn, considering the fact that we know that even though their company was dying he was still getting fitted for suits, going to the spa and getting chauffeured. It's not like he's not used to opulence, even if it's not exactly to this scale.

Gosh, why do people always tell someone to move along when they make a comment of disgruntlement? It's a comment section, not an 'only positive' comment section, and there shouldn't be comment police here unless the person is hateful and etc.
I came to comment section to say the same thing.I'm somewhat tired of watching 2D characters have tea or leave for work..
I read the spoilers, it doesn't matter what's to come if you bore people before you get there. We're 39 chapters in, it's ok if it's too slow paced for some, and they still have a right to say that and till keep reading if they want.

Well, the OP didn't say they didn't understand, their point was -> This story is leading up to the big reveal, but it's been 39 chapters of set up, so let's move on. I shouldn't speak for them, but that's what I understand as their opinion.
I agree with them.. I really do like peaceful happy times, and I don't like a lot of angst personally, but I'm ready to move on with the story myself. Enough tea drinking for me. just my opinion.
The art style isn't the best, but I will say that I do like that the uke realises he knows nothing about his boyfriend. Usually it's never addressed that the characters have the greatest love in the world, but they don't know anything about each other. The fact that he tried to correct that immediately is definitely something that I appreciate.
I also like that he was only going into this with fwb intentions but genuinely started developing something more than that. He's a little selfish, but most characters are in bl. I like how he takes what he wants very unapologetically. Obviously his messy personality stems from being a child star, so I also appreciate that it feels true to life.
