Wait, does this mean Jay is Version 1, or is it still unclear whether Jay is one of the kids? Because if I’m doing the math right, this is after the Lookism arc, and since our MC is Version 2 and still in high school, Jay would have been Version 1. There are 1,2, and 3 of the version for the kids and Jay is 1. I think lol
So this is pretty much satosugu???
I hope in this version they'll get a happy end
Bro her friends are so fake? Like why are you still hanging out with them
I apologize, but the pacing in the manga is horrible. For any manga readers out there, if you haven’t read the novel yet, I highly recommend doing so. The manga does not do the story justice, and so many crucial scenes are missing. While there’s a chance they might reintroduce these moments as flashbacks, it’s still disappointing.
To start, the first chapter should have focused more on Lian and the goddess, giving readers a better understanding of their dynamic. Following that, there should have been scenes showing Lian’s interactions with his brother and family. For example, Lian’s admiration for his parents and his discomfort around his brothers should have been included. This would explain later on in the story why Lian prefers staying at the church rather than at home. (The discomfort come from his brother’s inappropriate touches, which give off unsettling, incestuous vibes, a fact that makes Lian uncomfortable.)
Additionally, they should have shown the moment where Lian insists on changing by himself instead of having a maid help him. This scene highlights how different the original Lian (cruel and spoiled) is from the current Lian. It’s an important moment that show the between their personalities.
When Lian was taking care of the ML, they should have included the part where he struggles with blood. It’s a critical part as it tied to his trauma. whenever he sees blood, he remembers the accident that left his parents dead in a mess of red. In Chapter 2, the training scene also felt incomplete. In the novel, Lian acts more tsundere and provides constructive criticism to the ML. For example in the novel he says, “If you wish to win against me, then you should practice more, hm? You have too many wasted movements. Too many openings. You rely on brute strength, so your openings are even more obvious. What have you been practicing all this time? Think carefully about the weight and speed of the sword, about your swordsmanship. Be gentle with it. Put just enough force in every strike. If your movements flow, then you don’t need much power.” This highlights Lian’s skill and demonstrates how he helps the ML improve over time. It also explains why the ML grows to like him. Even though Lian believes he’s acting like a villain, the ML recognizes that Lian’s tough criticism is actually his way of helping. Also in the novel it wasn’t a handprint, it was scratches when Lian helped the ML. While I can understand the decision to show a handprint, it def different from the novel. (Confused me at first)
They also left out the scene with the doctor where he talked about how different Lian has become, saying, “You’ve become really gentle. The previous Young Master Lian absolutely wouldn’t have helped a shitty brat lying on the side of the road.” Moments like these emphasize the differences between the original Lian and the current one.
Why are they removing such important scenes that build the characters and their relationships? Its leaving the manga feeling flat compared to the novel. Even in chapter 3 they also left some many scene once again.
hey so I wanna read the novel but can't seem to find it, do you any alternative title or links to read it??? ╥﹏╥
I dm you. If ppl can't find it just dm me !
Please me too!!
Hi!!! i will dm <333
highly agree w you, the novel really is a lot more dynamic and interesting
me three!!!!!
Dm all! Also I can help with spoiler if yall want some!
could u dm me?
Well it's just the classic problem of adaptations sadly having to shave off of the original material to fit the small amount of pages and chapters that were probably budgeted to the artist.
You had one job bro that was to just compliment her, not avoid her
OMG IT CAME OUT AS A MANGA I LOVED THIS NOVEL
Wait, why is the pacing like this? At the start of the novel, it focused on introducing the characters and their relationship, not to mention there are so many missing scenes that explain how the male lead fell in love with the main character when they were kids. In chatper 2 we didn’t get to this part of the story until much later on?
+ by later on I meant like there was still some missing scenes before that scenes that kinda build off the relationship around them? And even in chapter 2 there still was some scenes that were gone! The pacing is going to fast
I think they couldn’t fit everything inside the manga but yeah so many things are missing
Yeah the pacing is definitely different from the novel but as a stand alone thing it’s not too bad
As long as they explain how the ML feel in love with the MC and stuff I think I’ll be at least somewhat okay with the drastic changes
I mean at least this is made me read the novel straight up.
They always fuck up the pacing in the adaptations of novels, at least here they didn’t straight up change the character like in the Success oriented guide (ML has a different personality).
I really want to read the novel, where can I find it?
seconded
Google it bro, don’t ask for a link here. If you can’t find it I'll dm. Whoever posts a link here, can get the translator in legal trouble
ah, i see. good to know.
tbh i dont get why because this whole site is illegal, but fair enough. I just looked it up on novelupdates
For any novel reader could you guys explain more about Lefanta Aegim??
I haven't read the novel but as far as have gathered, Aegim initially was a highschooler who was bullied,so he chose death, but thenthe goddess overlooking our fmc's continent saved him and had him isekaid there. There,she pressed upon him the title and responsibilities of a hero. He built a empire on that continent. But then a tower sprung there out of nowhere like in Sword Emperor's Empire. The Empire was all he had and since the constellations dared to ruin it he is on a duty to kill them. As for the goddess of protection,I think they both loved each other,so as a salvation he killed her???
Ugh I kinda feel bad for him. I mean depsite all the shit he done so I was hoping that maybe novel reader can tell me he at least a decent person lolol
I think yeah,coz he was bullied and oppressedto the point that he chose death over life,but circumstances didn't even allow him death. What misery is it that you have nothing to live on and you can't even die,even that freedom is taken away from you
I don't know if I can help but reading right now the novel and being a little ahead than where we are right now I can say that he's also an unfortunate person
Spoiler bellow
Because he was terribly bullied at school and didn't have anyone to rely on neither a single friend nor his father, but then our kind Gongja will sort of help him with an unexpected ally
(I cried the entire arc ╥﹏╥)
Another spoiler that I think we'll read in 2/3 chapter is that
The Lefanta that he's battling now is but a puppet and the real him is hidden who know where
I tried not to say too much but did I explain enough to understand?
I really bad at that (￣∇￣")
Tyyy I'm glad bc i lowly feel bad for him. If you could I don't mind the spoiler lol. I'm too anxious about him lol. Hopefully he doesn't die
Nah,I think he's gonna have reunion with Gongja and Levansia and live as a family, I hope soooo
Maybe. I think he might continue his duty or travel somewhere far where nobody will find him. I pity him LMAOOO he crazy handsome too lol
Well if you don't mind spoilers then I can say a little bit more
Lefanta has a skill that sort of split him in 8 part if I'm not wrong, that live life without interfering with each other but the puppets will like report the thing they do to the real him and if one dies it doesn't matter because another one will spawn so he's like an immortal if I understood the explanation of the skill
Another spoiler about the next floor
Gongja will die after defeating him from the real one or another puppet (I don't remember) and will have to stay in the penalty of his skill that have upgraded after killing him and this time he will live as a person inside the memories and not as a ghost watching
I don't know if I should say it or not but he's living as the one who initiated the bulling (that is a self centered person that doesn't understand anything that I want to punch in the face) and while living as him he going to find out that the director of the orphanage where he lived is a classmate of Lefanta and after returning a day before he'll ask the Librarian if he can enter the next floor with him and the Constellation Killer that he has in his shadow as his companion and the book will be of the Earth where they are living because as the Librarian explain Gongja is the Protagonist of that book so all the recording inside that are with his Pov and so they will be able to enter the trauma that he just experienced
I'm sorry if it's confusing and long but as I said before I'm really bad at explaining things and I should practice and because I know a little about this I thought that I could use this chanceヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
so basically the concept of Han Sooyoung,she can make clones but at the cost of memories,when the clons die,those memories disappear [I thought he was like Voldemort at first,splitting himself to 8 parts]
Well no those memories remain on the main "part" so the Lefanta that has the skill
This is obviously if I understood the explanation of the novel, I'm too stupid for this intricate novel but it's sooo good that I'll continue reading it ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
Omg thank you for the spoiler now I wanna hug lefanta but I think he might kill me first LMAOOOO
I think you could hug the Lefanta that's in Gongja shadow, he shouldn't be able to kill you for more than one reason (≧∀≦)
I swear, if I were reincarnated into "Little Mushroom", I’d probably end up killing myself. The manhua portrays how strong human willpower can be, but I don’t think I’d have that kind of strength. Honestly, I’d likely break down in fear at the thought of being killed or turning into a disgusting monster. I’d rather die as a human than become a creature destined to kill others.
