i’m rereading this and it’s such a small detail but i think remi genuinely started to like angel bc he reminded her of emi. let me cook- when angel first “confessed” to remi, he said “i want to become a man who can stand by your side and not bring shame to your name,” which is followed up with remi recalling how emi told prince willard “i was trying so hard so i could stand by your side, because i wanted to become a woman who wouldn’t bring shame to anyone.” so the only reason why remi likes angel is bc of emi (exaggerating) anyway #doomed yuri so doomed she had to settle for the next best thing
i need ppl who didn’t actually pay attention to the story and only read the smut parts to stop commenting on them not having chemistry ITS THERE YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION, they’re also BOTH emotional stunted grown men! andddd not every couple needs to express their love for each other in the exact same way
now that it’s over i’m gonna reread this for the 50th time and also sit patiently for the anime to air
why do people say they don’t have chemistry i just read the whole thing in one sitting and wow, they have amazing tension. i get the feeling that care about each other a lot in their own strange ways. taemin caught feelings very early on but most of the manhwa is narrated in his perspective, so we see him actively push his feelings away all the time. if taemin wasn’t living life for pure punishment and atonement for his family dying, he would’ve let himself fall in love with jay easily, but he won’t because he feels like he doesn’t deserve any happiness in his life. jay knows this and also knows he can’t push taemin to accept any feelings very easily, so he subtly (also not subtly aka pushing him down all the time) lets taemin know that he doesn’t need to live life in atonement forever.
jay modified that movie script at the end to include this dialogue about the suicidal office worker: “i wish i could’ve become his reason for living” and it’s implied that taemin cried after reading that part (he covers his face but pretty sure he’s crying). either jay was letting taemin know that there’s people around him who care about him (hansoo, manager choi) or he was letting taemin know what he himself wanted to become the reason taemin keeps on living. a lot of manhwa is spent on taemin learning to live with himself and find purpose in life again, even after fulfilling his unfulfilling revenge. with the encouragement of manager choi, hansoo, director jeong, and especially jay, he wants to keep being an actor despite only doing it at first to get back at myungshin. side note that chapter where myungshin found out that jay was taemin’s sponsor was way more satisfying than i thought, even if taemin didn’t feel that fulfilled.
anyway i love their chemistry and taemin just has a hard time letting himself go and admitting he finds jay fine as hell
my god i started sobbing like i love miria so much she’s trying her best she’d even give up her powers to be with mori omg GIVE THAT BOY BACK TO HIS FAMILY
would’ve been an interesting read if it wasn’t padded with strange and weird side stories
ahri omg i’ve made braised pork ribs too, it’s NOT SO SIMPLE LIKE MINSHIT THINKS. not only is mincheol comparing her effort by thinking “haesoo could make this way faster” (keep in mind this is ahri’s FIRST time making this) but he’s also minimizing the effort haesoo puts into making braised ribs too!! she’s just more experienced with cooking because they can’t afford to eat out!! and why can’t he help ahri cook? if he wanted it without carrots he should’ve been there to help her. just scummy all around. LEAVE THE GIRLS ALONE
either the prince is a dumb fuck for thinking cynthia actually has powers or he was trying to bait margaret into revealing her powers by taunting her and getting engaged to her sister. did he actually think margaret was gonna jump in and scream “actually, im the real saintess!!” (????) that dumb fuck thinks he’s the prize she was FREED from yo ass after YOU broke it off bye these stories are actual ragebait
sometimes the anatomy is a little too ridiculous but i forgive it bc i actually enjoy the story
well that’s certainly creative but when is he gonna stop
omfg it hurts me to see coco on so much pain, the way she feels responsible for saving everyone when she’s just a child and needs saving herself, breaks my heart. like someone else said, i’d support her villain arc lmao
my guess is that fluffy brought little a to help out k
what the hell was that ending why did the author write hwan like this man making me embarrassed to have rooted for him in the first place
