God: "Hey you, I see that you're serving me, but you should know you're destined to become a powerful mage."
ML: "I don't care. I love you!!"
God: "Okay bet, I'll give you special treatment. The power won’t compare to that of a mage, tho.
God: "and when you DO become a mage, because destiny means you WILL, I'll let my followers brand you so you can suffer for centuries."
ML: "Huh?"
God: "Too late, no takesies backsies. Teehee"
I dont think I have to dive into the symbolism behind the argument between Heart and Head, right? ....RIGHT?!
On another note, I can't believe it took me 14 chapters to realize Heart looks the way he does because he's a literal walking manifestation of Henry's heart. Literally. He's all patched up, broken and "ugly" looking because that's literally the condition Henry's heart was probably in (emotionally).
So, two dicks for Dick because crazy libido. A patched up body for Heart because patched up heart. Now Head... I've said it once and I'll say it again, he really fascinates me the most. Still not beating the psychopath allegations. Preserve the head because all Victor really loved was his beauty, possessing him etc etc. But the tentacle??? It's giving Victor low key saw him as a toy to play with (to a degree) similar to how Henry saw all of his fwb. This requires further analysis at a later date. But make no mistake, this manhwa has convinced me that everything has symbolism, including the tentacle dick.
Also, I'm gonna go out on a limb (heh) here and say that Heart wondering if he would love anyone Henry loved is def tied to Head initially going out in search of a "past lover"
The amount of ppl in these comments that lack reading comprehension. I know its been a while but this was explained in the beginning yall. She will ALWAYS die before the year is up, that's part of the curse. Keeping her locked up and away from harm did nothing, she just got sick and died.
first of all it's been 3 years, and second - there was always a visible reason of her death, but now she just suddenly expired
3 years and yet the entire point of the manhwa is that she keeps dying because of the curse. "Waiting it out" was never an option. It doesn't take a genius to infer that she simply got sick and died because the curse couldn't get her in some other way. She didn't "suddenly expire"
No need to be an ahole, they are right. There was always a clear reason before and it's not unreasonable to expect a clear explanation.
Nobody expected "waiting it out" to work ,but usually the actions of that turn had an effect on her death so at least I wanted to see how she would die this time considering how much the ml interfered.
Youre not being an ahole. If anything, I am. But I can't be bothered to care about that rn.
Not everything needs to be overexplained or conveniently spelled out for it to be understood or infered.
I knew this was coming since the moment the baby prince died but it was still gut punching. Damn.
I'm soooo glad they went this route with the writing because I was literally thinking of this myself.
She chose him in a way, and by doing so, doomed him into this looped existence. Even if the loop isn't her fault, it makes perfect sense that she now feels responsible for him. She probably feels like she's ruined him in a sense. Heck, I'm surprised she's not questioning if his feelings for her are only due to the loop.
On another note, I hope this isn't their last life. This feels like a life of revenge and I could go on and on about how that doesnt need to be the final message. But honestly I just want the prince to be alive again
My dude, you have WALKING proof of his love for you.
Hi, I'm gonna dissect some more. Just a smidge, a bite, if you will.
Henry, as a child, picks up a test tube with a rat in it. Foreshadowing of the fact that he himself is a rat? One that will inevitably end up as another one of Viktor's tests.
Viktor says he loves Henry but he has only ever shown obsession and possessiveness, specifically revolving Henry's beauty. It is poetic then, that he would ask Head (the physical representation of Henry's beauty)if he loves him, when there is already walking proof of Henry having loved him, to some extent, in Heart.
I used to think Head was a representation of Henry's mind (his being a Psychopath), and I still think he is that, to some extent. But I now fully think Viktor only "saved" Henry's head, just because he wanted to preserve his beauty, more than his mind.
Tune in next week to this tired film student's analysis of what she thought was just a weird smut manhwa.
I just hope MC realizes this and lets Henry go. I don't think this one should have a happy ending. Maybe with Viktor x Heart, but only after Viktor does A LOT of self-reflection, because for now, he's just a pathetic, obsessed man that doesn't know what true love is. :')
girl you have no idea how much i love you love your analysis
Byul looks so much like his mom. It's adorable.
It’s my favorite part of this webtoon
ALL ABOARD!
The "What The Fuck" train will be departing shortly.
Yo, why did his aide (Anton) get all hot all of a sudden.
I'm surprised they even managed that with this art style.
