That gay uncle gets on my nerves. Even though he is gay himself, he just can't admit that he's just drowning in self pity while others are leading happy lives. His words that he told to "protect" children ended up hurting Hiro instead. His self hatred is now hurting innocent people. He can't accept that he's jealous of Hiro's parents. There are many people in real life like him who don't put effort in finding happiness and want to drag others down because of jealousy.
I get that the author wants to continue the story but that doesn't mean that the asshole jerk needs a redemption arc. This is going to be that cliche of the immature jerk side character who is full of self pity because he had a bad experience. So he'll just hurt everyone around him and blame everyone else for it. Then he'll meet his true love and magically become a good person. I've had enough of this storyline, the author can just end the story but they decided to drag it out by using the worst side character
Personal opinion here: I loved this story in the beginning and though I still like it, it just feels too dragged on now. I still love the characters and the story but now I sort of want the ending because eveytime when it seems like it's going to end, the author introduces another Villain and another new character. So now I'm confused with the story. It's starting to get muddy and I wish it was more cleaner. This was my comfort read but now I have to use my brain power to understand the story.
I'm already spoiled about the ending but I still hate the biological family. I know the author wants us to like them since they had their own circumstances in shushu's first life, but I seriously hate them at this point. They are just selfish and act like Villains. They don't care about her and only think about wanting her back. She's practically scared right now and they're just making it worse. Since I already know what happens with shushu and her biological family, I'm just gonna drop this. The recent chapters are just making me angry. I thought I'll forgive them if they repent but nope! They're not repenting and just making shushu's life more difficult while thinking they're the good family and the duke family are the Villains. Yeah I can't deal with selfish people.
I get the Uke has some sort of trauma which he is coping through playing around but I'm getting tired of how the author is going about solving it. The uke just goes back and forth between being a playboy and an innocent maiden, it's like he's two different people. And you can't solve everything by sleeping around. I thought the seme would help him heal but he's also reckless and is almost love bombing him. The whole thing feels messy. I'm okay with this if the story is supposed to be dark and messy but the author is showing it as cute and sweet which it isn't.
I get that she felt isolated from her peers because she had an abnormal upbringing. But now she's just projecting her insecurities and jealousy onto the chief and Ho became they seemed happy even when they're having an "abnormal" relationship. She just gave into her own insecurities while they're facing it head on. So them being together reminds her that she's the problem. I don't get why an immature adult child is butting into a grown man's relationship. He isn't even related to her, he's only a village chief who helped her out. He's almost 40, why does she care? Isn't she one of those people who's "giving him a hard time in a small village"? The author gave such a bad explanation for her meddling that I had to reread the chapter to make it make sense.
Again, they're treating her like an object. Is she some kind of doll who has to do everything they want ? Why are they treating the duke family like the abuser when they actually gave her a home to feel safe? The biological father (emperor) doesn't do anything about making the Palace safe for her, he's just so weak that he can't even go against the woman who killed his wife and hid his youngest daughter. But he treats the family who saved her like a criminal and wants her back to live in a toxic place where she might get abused again? The Prince is also acting like a brat and treating her like his possession. He's not even trying to understand her. I don't care about the circumstances or the past but her biological family is just red flags currently and I just want her to live her life safely with the duke.
I actually like this. Everything makes sense. All the characters have depth and great back stories that feels realistic in the story. The hints of romance suits the story and I like a MC who's pessimistic and learning the joy of living slowly. Nothing is overdone or cheesy. This story definitely needs a higher rating.
I really like this story. I love how unlike the usually story about toxic characters, the author actually shows how sometimes too much love can lead to tragedies. I did wish that both Juliet and Enoch could've communicated instead being silent with each other. But the true roots of the tragedy happened because of their brothers (Enoch's brother and Juliet's brother). They were so self absorbed in their own feelings of love and protectiveness that they ignored Enoch's and Juliet's desires. That led to the miscommunication and problems. It was refreshing to read because these kinds of manhwas usually have abusive characters but this story showed how love can be a double edged sword.
The story is just ok but I don't why I don't like the Heroine. I mean she's cute and all but I just don't like her. I am alright with quirky heroines but somehow I can't seem to like her. Can someone explain ? Because I myself am so confused Quirky heroines are usually likeable and relatable. So I tried to like her but something about the reasons for her behavior or how childish she is..... something is not right for me. I dunno
Why is the art so inconsistent for every chapter ? The main character's design changed so many times and the quality is getting worse as the story goes on. And why is the main character's personality so different compared to the beginning of the story? At the start, the MC had so much depth and character growth, his decisions and behavior made sense. But why does it seem so surface lever and his demeanour has also changed...... I'm only saying this because I'm disappointed that such a good manhwa which had so much interesting plot lines and depth is going down in terms of quality
In the earlier chapters I was frustrated since the seme was acting immature. Finally, I was warming up to him and thought the story was getting somewhere but no ! The author introduces an idiotic character who wants to be intimate with someone who has a partner ! Why does the girl have to be so weird ?! Not all introverts are like that ! Either the seme will say he's gay and reject her or the uke will find out about this and matters will get worse..... either way, I am so stressed out !!!
I understand that the king and the prince want their daughter/sister back but the way they're doing it is like wanting an object back. It's like they're seeing her as their possession. Don't they realize that she's officially another family's child ? What about her opinion ? They're not even asking what she wants. They're moving too fast, she's just now recovering and they're just so stupid to calm down for once.
I don't know what the author is thinking. First another guy tries to steal uke's mate, the omega's friend assaults the uke, then the other Omega doesn't want to let go of his friend even though he wants to sleep with the seme, the uke brushing everything off like it's cute and not a big deal....... it's just a bunch of red flags. I've read far worse manga with darker themes than this but the problem here is that the author is making it seem "cute" and "healthy". It's just so uncomfortable to read.
Rintaro can single handedly end global warming with how much of a green forest he is To be honest, I almost teared up in this chapter. His words are laced with warmth and support, it was just so comforting to read those words. The author better win some awards for this, this is officially in my top 3 manga list (I've read hundreds of manga)! Even though I'm jealous of Kaoruko, I'm still happy for her for finding the man she deserves. I hope everyone reading this find a supportive partner like Rintaro
That man is not a green flag........ he's a green forest !!! Where can I meet someone like him ? ╥﹏╥
I'm happy for them and they were cute together. But..... wasn't he a big red flag ? I mean I'm glad that she knew about the bet beforehand or else kouichi would've been irredeemable. He was immature and just couldn't take responsibility. He even doubted her character when she found the truth, I mean he's the last person who should be saying that. And when they get together, he became so obsessive ? The manga was cute but if this was real life, he would've been a huge Trash.
The story is just missing something. It felt chaotic rather than warm, sweet and melancholic like its supposed to. Both of them are adults so I don't mind their relationship but it does feel half baked when the reason why MMC liked the FMC in the first place was because she reminded him of his late wife. In the end he came to like her as a person but his feelings started when he felt he had a substitute for his late wife. Adult relationships are complex but I just wish the author showed it with more depth rather than making it so careless.
The way I see it, both of them are just selfishly using each other and are gonna get hurt. The seme is just pushing his feelings and using Uke's easy going personality to satisfy his delusions. The Uke is just using the seme to get over his past and find a way to forget the pain. Both of them are not thinking about the other person and are just acting according to their own selfish needs. Either the seme should move on from his feelings or the uke should reject him strongly and distance himself. But they're not doing any of this and are just making matters worse. Realistically this kind of relationship will end in flames but since this is a BL manga, I'm sensing a happy ending. We'll see......
I'm sorry but Takagi was just a jerk. He should've just told him the truth at the beginning and if he didn't like him when he confessed, he should've just rejected him. I guess the author wanted him to seem like a mature aloof adult but he just didn't want to be bothered. He was an idiot and hurt Toraji Kun. Stringing him along like that and lying to a guy who earnestly confessed to you, I would be enraged if I found out.
