I'm sorry but from the moment the gaisar family appeared i can't help but think of gayder lol
raymond is a crazy jerk that can't handle not being the center of the universe. she moved on, you cursed at her for a decade and now you're sad? now you want her back? and you're delusional enough to think that she'll fall in love with you again bc you're "fated to be"? get over yourself, eternal love when the object of your affection treats you like shit doesn't exist, you did this to yourself, you are truly just like your father.
and don't get me started on the brother. like tf you mean you want them to get back together and you haven't already beat the shit out of your so called friend for having lowkey abused your "dearest" sister for years?
this manga is a whole bag of shit.
they didn't address how the omega brother raped the ml, baby trapped and abandoned his kid and just now came forward saying "i did it for you 2"
the alpha brother thinking that the child born of a very obvious non consensual act is a proof of his brother and ml's love is sick and twisted
the "but I'm an alpha" obsession is almost groundless tbh
the fact that in all those years of child rearing the ml never confessed bc what, the alpha brother wouldn't have believed him, is absolute bs
every single characters except the kid are trash
at the very moment she overheard their plot to cut down the spirit tree and she stumbled into the vase i knew the plot was dogshit. the villains are brainless with no real gaol other than profit and the way they want to achieve it is the most absurd way possible. the worldbuilding is mediocre at best and the characters are flat and that's less than a chapter in. the worldbuilding feels like a justification for the fl to be abused and thus saved by the ml and the fl to also save and support the ml and for it to be a "us against the world" type of story. the fact that her seeing spirit is seen as cursed but they worship the spirit tree is the dumbest thing ever, it makes no sense and goes against any and all logic
yay, mo misunderstanding each other's identity (づ￣ ³￣)づ
ah yes, the perfect excuse to build his harem "i don't like how men look at my mom"
I'm sorry but i hate pathetic losers who are so bitter about their unrequited crush that they never confessed that they take it out on their crush for not being a mind reader and expects them to magically get it, fall in love and apologize for never having noticed their feelings all while being one of the reasons they're suffering. idk why there's so many "romances" like this, but it ain't cute
I'm sorry but the ml that protects the fl without telling her how or why so that she ends up misunderstanding him and thinking he's the source of her suffering or abandoning her is a tired trope and i won't be reading that
and today, the winners of the mental gymnastics are Hebe and Nick! the won with their incredible routines of : "overhearing a vague phonecall between him and his ex wife: and "seeing a sensual portrait who resemble her and assuming she was the painter's lover and is thus a golddigger" ! stay tuned for the next competition of mental gymnastics to see who will take the medal home
ah yes, bc it is famously known that a woman cannot be 2 things at once, a brilliant scientist and emotionally aware. and neither can she be feminine, bc you can't be a scientist and a feminine (fashionable) woman at the same time, everybody knows this. and early onset menopause is obviously the answer to an erratic cardiac rythm in the presence of someone you just had sex with, of course, no other reason. and of course as soon as you fall in love you become an idiot that doesn't think straight anymore and can't focus on the rest of your day to day life, eventho you've been growing bacterias for years now you can't even pipe in the petri dish anymore.
you can really see that it's written and drawn by a man. no substance, no real character setting, only ambition and money. such an "alpha male" story
a giant pile of garbage, it's always the "she's not like other women" and the "I'm not the type of women ppl fall for" and the "you were a vigrin, i shouldn't have taken you to bed" and the "I'm keeping you in the country by force by withholding your passport"
fl is as vain as everyone who judged her and her sister based on their beauty. she was as vain as all her exes that chose her sister, just bc she's the victim of her own vanity doesn't mean she's not the exact same as those who judged her bases on appearances. like thinking Shane would obviously fall in love with her sister bc she's pretty. does she really think all ppl are so surface level and rotten? and if so, why would she fall for someone like that? and instead of improving herself and her self confidence and searching her own beauty, she abandoned and decided to become rotten inside, distrustful and not change a thing.
she's truly unlikeable and i say that as an "ugly duckling" myself. i hate characters like that, basing their whole worth and the worth of others on outer beauty. like she might be lamenting in self pity but she also judges her sister as being nothing but her beauty, like that scene in swan princess "you're beautiful. -what else? is beauty all that matters to you? - what else is there?" but about her own sister.
when will women in the ml's circles, be it colleagues, acquaintances, friends or family not be jealous bitches? like way to paint women as horrible people, except the perfect, pure, naive, forgiving fl. knowing those romances are written by women makes this even worse, like internalized misogyny is a disease
I'm sorry but for one absolutely batshit crazy criticism to shape your view of yourself, you really have to be weak. like accidents happen, she was 15 and pushing someone a little too hard pn the swing doesn't happen "bc she was never loved by her mother".
i had a childhood really similar to her, but if someone had told me that, I'd think he was an absolute buffoon and dismiss what he said as something said under the anger and anxiety of his daughter being hurt. bc that's such a fucking stretch
like always, a damsel in distress full of self hatred and no eye for ppl that needed to be saved by a man to truly start living and gain worth.
like bffr, it doesn't take a genius to realise that her cousin always hated her and was jealous and orchestred the whole "missing hairpin" fiasco. and it doesn't take a genius to value your life more than a hairpin given by some man who then told ylu you smelled like a monkey. there's nothing likeable about the fl, and the most unlikable traits she has is her stupidity and self-hatred
blade girl and run with your new legs are really dear to me
welcome to today's episode of "man wants perfect wife without being perfect husband" !
they should add mental gymnastic to the olympics and those 2 would get gold in no time with how they'd rather assume anything other than being honest with each other until the end.
ml truly has to be an absolute idiot to not profess his undying love when the fl says "i don't wanna marry you bc you feel responsible", it's doesn't take a genius to understand that she would marry for love and thus he should make her fall in love instead of winning her over with "logic". and the first step of making someone fall in love is by telling them you love them, who knows, maybe they were in love with you all along too. if there's one situation where you should show all your cards and not play any mind games, it's love
