So neither the abusive asshat nor the dumb fuck ml care about wether or not he's consenting??? I don't mind "no" not being listened to if it's agreed on but in this case literally nothing was ever agreed on so this is just him passing from a not socially acceptable abusive relationship to a more socially acceptable abusive relationship
This is stupid I'm dropping this because both protagonists have inconsistent personalities and the story doesn't even know where it's going
I really like their dynamic and Yuma is a great MC but I'm getting so frustrated at Phelan's completely needless deception??? I know it's a trope of this genre but man is it fucking annoying how it turned their top tier relationship to just good enough if I ignore all of Phelan's fuck ups, which were not even that in character. Idk sometimes authors really shoot themselves in the foot by following tropes.
i think he's trying to figure out how to untwist their ugly fate which is MC inevitably going to turn into the Hero and ML knew this will happen- ML losing his mind whenever he sees MC. so he's looking for solutions how to undo this while lovking up MC so he doesnt run away while he figures it out. but he gotta communicate it fr
Yeah honestly I wish he told the MC from the beginning that he was going to be the hero or at least give him more information without revealing what he's afraid to say, they have such a good dynamic and I think both of them fighting against their fate would've been better
All he had to do was not become the demon king. wtf it would have made more sense if he turned into the demon king after the mc died. But no he had to do it be the reason the mc died in the first place
Yeah it doesn't even make sense for his character he has no reason to become king, he doesn't want revenge and it seems he doesn't care for politics. It's literally just the author shooting themselves in the foot by following the genre tropes, it's pretty disappointing ngl
I’m just going to believe since phelan was born he has an instinct to become the demon king it makes me feel better
It would've at least been interesting!! It's not a bad idea!! I would've wanted more about the clear speciesism against demons
Same but the demons seem evil to me . They took over some human bodies and destroyed some souls but we are just pretending they didn’t. Phelan doesn’t want power but chooses to become demon king even though he was strong enough without the power boost. I don’t see the math matching. Plus I have yet to see their civilization in that wasteland. Can the mc do some more exploring I’m not convinced we can live in harmony
True, a lot of works recently whitewashing and cleansing the demons lol. This manhwa has a lot potential, sad to see it went under the expectations.
Oh yeah I don't think the demons are good but I don't like that they're not expanded upon like how bad are they? Are they all bad or is it like Humans where some are terrible but most are fine? It's never addressed and it's really important since Phelan is the demon king
Ikr :/ I thought I had found a 10/10 gem for a genre mostly filled with slop... It's still good just frustrating because the potential is so clear
I think the reason why they couldn’t tell Mc that he’ll be the Hero is because of the amnesia thing, if you recall pre-Hero how he literally forgot his convo with Nine as soon as he said one of his past names. About Phelan, I think it’s to keep the demons from starting something and to keep the demon realm in check but honestly yeah now that Mc’s on par with him, Phelan should show a bit more respect to his man
Even if he wanted to tell Yuma everything i think it was hinted with the conversation with Nine earlier that mc just forgets about it right after. It's like there's a fourth wall obstructing him from hearing anything
Sure but you know that's a writing choice by the author that I just think is boring and overused, it's a lazy way to add stakes where I don't think they were even needed
I know Eunsan was a good hockey player because he can expertly dodge confronting his feelings and communication he could win a medal for that he's so skilled
How about rehab for chanichani? His sex addiction has already delved into insanity territory and seokjun is gonna die
who wouldn't if ur pee-p was taken away for a poo-c /j
I love this author and this story is so heartwarming but man is Jiwan still a fucking mess. I feel like he doesn't get any development and is far more childish then he gets framed as, Taeyang is not childish at all in comparison. They deserve their happy ending but Jiwan is still extremely toxic and hasn't healed a lot of his worst habits, I wish we got to see him actually apologise and learn to be better because your past stops being an excuse when you keep hurting everyone. I hope this author does longer comics because I think there's a lot of potential that just doesn't get used... Idk I'm left very unsatisfied
I agree with you. I feel unsatisfied. Jiwan hurt Taeyang with his words and actions over and over. I didn't feel like he properly reflected on all of that. He owes Taeyang a better apology. I think we need a chase arc for his character development. For Taeyang to leave him like he did so he will understand how painful it is.
Yeah he was also messy enough that he let a guy he was leading on babysit his son, that alone made me feel like the author wasn't properly considering the ramifications of Jiwan's actions. He's honestly not doing good at all ... As a father too
Yeah, although that guy is not really a good one, he was stringed along by Jiwan. And it's dangerous to leave the kid alone in the care of basically a stranger and Taeyang (child) felt uncomfortable too.
Well, first he knows he is gay, but irresponsibly had a kid with a woman he doesn't love. Ah...the author doesn't seem to have a full grasp on Jiwan as a character.
I think we are frustrated because this has potential to be a real good story, but ended unsatisfying.
Yeah the author is aware he's very unlikeable but they don't seem to know how to develop his character. For example the reason he ends his situationship could've been both because he's overwhelmed and he gets that job opportunity and add something like maybe he meets Taeyang's mom and his guilt is too much for him to bear. The motivations for his bad actions are always selfish but it's not portrayed as a problem to deal with, I don't get it. He's not as sympathetic as the other characters because he seems to get away with everything... I guess the author really didn't want to deal with the consequences of his actions, but there are ways to make him earn his happy ending
Oh that's true. If he met Taeyang's mom, overwhelming guilt would explain why he suddenly left him. And we (readers) could sympathize more with his decision to leave.
The author also didn't discuss his family issue in a way that would make us feel more for him.
I think you summarized it best: he did not earn his happy ending and it's hard to sympathize with him. Author-nim could've written him better.
In the notes It seems that the author had a limited amount of chapters so maybe we could've gotten a better story with more time
My man is the most paranoid person alive, in what world strolling down a side street chatting with a buddy translates to tailing someone secretly??? He was in front of you how was he following??? Therapy is absolutely within your means
