I feel so stupid, but I don’t get what Kojima (blond uke) wanted in the first place? Like, I get he wanted to die, but why? How does that relate to the woodsman issue? And why even bother doing all that freaky BDSM shit and dragging out his goal of dying? And why did he even have a business man job at all?
Like I get the current plot, but the basic character motivations elude me…
Trauma from the first person to ever treat him like a human literally setting himself on fire while saying "why did we have to meet" and "I love you" as he died might be the answer to quite literally everything lol
It's not that hard to put together his motives and actions if you actually pay attention.
He was abused by his father, treated like a delicate "girl" by other kids his age, and when the one person who treated him like a human child showed up Kojima ended up inadvertently causing his death right before his eyes. Not to mention he doesn't even know what the man was thinking or even if he was the murderer at all. And after aaaallllllll that the adults around him basically called him a child whore and blamed every death that was related on him.
He wanted to die 'cause he feared he'd cause someone else he loved to die a horrible death. Kojima also felt that he wasn't worthy of living 'cause of everything that has ever been done to him.
He's only faltering now 'cause Daimon has been helping him feel human again without even realizing it, and it was seeing Daimon nearly get beaten to death to save him that forced Kojima to set him up with that one chick then disappear.
Hope this helps lol
Why do I feel like there are missing chapters? I’m so confused
There are at least two missing chapters!!! Including Tsubaki’s introduction, bato has it all!!!
If y’all haven’t figured out that this is the kind of story where you need to shut your head off and just appreciate the pretty art, then this story ain’t for you lol
the fact that even if you dont read anything, it still doesnt help literally hurts me
Instead of “anxiety”, maybe restlessness would be a better word? But I don’t know what the original Korean said, so I’m just theorizing about the nuance lol
Can we pls not normalize posting unfunny edits on here? Upload it on wattpad or something.
Leave if u dont want it
fun fact: it was reposted :<
I was inferring more to the fact that it might inspire others to make their own parodies of other manga and well end up with an endemic on our hands, but yeah that sucks. Bots are ruthless.
Also, could you maybe keep this fanfic within the constrains of only a few, relevant tags? Like, just mature and comedy. I know you’re tryna increase ur reach and stuff, but unless there is content that actually aligns with the other tags you have on this, I think it’d be right to remove them.
Ppl on here always whine and cry about users posting their own work on here and when people add the wrong tags to stuff, and I don’t get why you’re the exception lol
i literally cannot edit it. i can only upload chapters under the tag.
**work. i wanted to edit stuff with it but I couldn't.
Tryna figure out how this story could have ended better, but it’s difficult because everyone involved was fucked from the very beginning. If the author really wanted to swerve towards a happy ending, maybe there could be more scenes of the old guy and the mom getting closer and maybe the old guy would genuinely fall in love with her (it does seem like he did to some extent). MC declares he lost or whatever like in the original story, sex relationship continues even after old guy becomes his step father, maybe MC moves out/studies abroad, and at some point when he comes home to visit, the old guy shows no interest in bothering him anymore. Not really as a way to “redeem” the old guy, but at the very least assure readers that MC is safe from him and the guy now only has the hots for people his age.
“I unfortunately cannot take the notes down bc people asked for them and it makes them feel more comfortable reading” babe… if they are reading this in the first place they probably ain’t the kind of person who needs your shitty notes LOL
Forgot how annoying the resizing of the panels is keep having to zoom in and out. Hopefully someone uploads better scans at somepoint?
I didn’t come into this story expecting much (let’s be honest, most of us came here for the edgy smut) but the writing is soooo good and the inner conflict of the mc is done so well.
So many stories that try to deal with these topics depict Stockholm syndrome as developing in like, a single chapter, and suddenly the mc is ok with everything, but this story does it all so well. Like, it takes its time with establishing the little things that prime someone’s mind for Stockholm Syndrome, and it makes the story all the scarier because it’s clear the mc is genuinely losing to his inner battle against it /despite/ the fact he’s aware of it. Really just hammers in the fact that Stockholm Syndrome is a mental illness, and it doesn’t care how aware the person is of it or how hard they try to keep their rationality. Dare I say, it feels so much more “realistic”.
On that note… can someone check on the author of this manhwa…? Just in case… ╥﹏╥
This chapters translation seems abnormally bad to me, anyone else? Maybe a different scan team tried to translate it than the group that normally does it?
I agree !! The other chapters have a much more professional look
Yeah. I’m grateful for the update, but at the same time, this story can get pretty confusing at times especially with the names of stuff and mythology. The other scan group did an impeccable job with translating all that stuff and adding notes, so I’m crossing my fingers and hoping their version will get uploading too. ;;;
