I’m losing hope every chapter…Please Fujimoto i can’t lose my faith in you
should have a jumpscare warning for that ugly kid in the first panel. Weird storyline too
awww i feel like he’s a neglected dog causes hes so cute!!! also im a little disappointed they gave the lady in waiting’s uniform like they’re servants. Yes they dress the queen but they’re basically professional friends who entertain the queen and represent her and the royal court with their clothing and behavior. So i was really interested in her connecting with the two girls on more of friendship level than servants.
I really like stories like this especially the Mcs personality (reminds me of no home) so anyyy recommendations pleaseeeee for something similar pleaseeee
Eunyung!??
i really wish Mary shelly was alive so i could show her this
THIS HAS ME CACKLING OMFGGG .°(ಗдಗ。)°.
I keep rereading while waiting for updates and nothing can explain my absolute hatred for Lister. I want to strangle him with my own to hands while spitting in his face. He’s so arrogant and tries to act like a naive tsundere when he’s the scum of the earth who deserves to be executed by impalement!!! I hate him so much someone strike him down now!!! I can’t take another chapter of seeing him happy im literally convulsing from rage what did my sweet baby do to deserve such an evil man by his side!!! Someone rescue him!!! preferably the handsome man named Gjord :))
SORRY but i thought u wrote 'i want to strangle him with my own hands while sitting on his face' I CAN'TTTT I LAUGHED SO HARD
i hope he dies
Whenever i see freaky retellings of classics I just really just wonder what the Authors would think. Also this plot is like absolutely ridiculous i’m kinda here for it
I think my only pet peeve for this story is that the Gods wear less clothes than the servants and The literal main God is barefoot…Like what…aren’t you rich??
Still looking forward for more updates thoughhh
Honey, it’s a cultural thing
When it comes to clothes that royals wear within a culture, a couple things are taken into consideration; climate, resources and the message.
Here they live in a warm climate, but clearly have an abundance of natural resources, so instead of layering on furs and cottons they show this through intensive detailing work like embroidery, and precious gems.
Additionally, a lack of footwear sends a message, like "I do not have to walk for myself". We see the Sha are largely transported via litters (palanquins without covers) and therefore aren't expected to use their feet outside. This is similar to how in East Asian cultures, fair skin was established as a sign of status because it meant you could afford to stay inside all day as you weren't a labourer.
My apologies for the long reply, but this is actually a really interesting topic. If you look at what British royals wear you can see it's all made of materials from their various overseas territories because they were bragging about their empire!
Hoe are you slow ??
not actually considering this seems to be inspired by egypt under roman rule and i wouldn’t really care if it was servants but royals absolutely had longer clothes and layers because they were rich. I can ignore the no shoes though. But it’s whatever cause it’s fiction and it’s like a stereotypically thing in fiction to have your Egyptians in this clothing so it doesn’t really matter just a personal pet peeve!
I like long replies so need to apologize! the years and stuff of the story confuse me because the westerners have like a British empire look and the people we see look like Egypt under roman rule and they were quite conservative. but i don’t expect authors to research every little thing for their fantasy comic. But i’m really into fashion so to see them go the easy way out of beautiful North African/Middle eastern traditional fashion peeves me a little. I can get over it though but always in the back of my mind I’m thinking, “There’s barely any trees how do these people not have any skin protection. It’s not like they live in a tropical area??” but thats cause i’m a nerd lol
No, and I don’t know you so don’t reply to me if you’re going to insult me for a personal pet peeve of mine. Thank youuu!!!
no tf it isnt
Okay do tell how?
they explained it to you in the comments , this shit is stereotype ...a stupid one at that ...
What do you mean stereotype? Yall dont get the point, the ppl in the novel dont represent a specific country irl. It’s purely fictional. And if you can see the character designs (if you have eyes) most of them are lacking clothing and fabric if you’re wondering why they’re like that. You can tell it’s cultural. So how is it not?
It is cultural specific to the people of trastasa.
If you dont like the way the characters are being represented because they’re depicting stereotypes then go read something else?
thats litrally egypt tf are u talking about,they just changed the name, and our cultures arnt a fantasy what kind f oriantalist bullshit are u spewing rn , if these authors want to us our cultures so be it im all for that but let it be somewhatb accurate and the ppl from these cultures be represented ot top of inacurate dress code ,notice how there isnt even a single brown charecter also ,they just like the SWANA region aesthtics and twist and nitpic what they like and ditch what they dont ...they just looks like east asians cosplaying as egyptians .
Shut the fck up. The reason why it’s labelled as fantasy because everyone is basically FICTIONAL. Maybe it’s specifically inspired by egyptian culture but doesn’t mean it’s literally egypt!! That’s why its setting is called Trastasa. Since when did the author officially say that this manhwa’s country was in egypt?? you dumb fuck?
when you say it’s wannabe egyptian bitch it’s literally not?
Any story is free to draw inspiration from different cultures without needing to stay 100% faithful to the real-world version. That’s the whole point of fiction and fantasy, the author has the freedom to shape the setting however they want to fit their narrative.
It's not a requirement for every story to be always accurate anyway.
I don’t think it counts as cultural appropriation, especially if the story isn’t relying solely on the setting to carry the whole thing.
I usually hate squatters but he’s soo cuteee
(also not really relevant but are vampire homeless because they must be invited into a house like imagine they leave their house whos letting them back in??)
this whole story is hobosexual propaganda. He’s a successful singer actor guy and doesn’t help pay the bills????? Was pretty funny and cute until he started freeloading though
