same dude, I dropped it some time ago and came back to see if anything interesting had happened but it's still the same
I've said this so many times that I probably sound like a broken record but
the FL is way too perfect: way too gifted powerwise, Beautyful, royalty, everyone loves her no matter what she does, every male character falls for her, every the other characters personalities are based un adoring the FL like their world revoles solely around her and whats worse the story itself hasn't progressed

Me too! I had to read everything again (〜￣△￣)〜

Same, I vaguely began to remember when Dean showed up for the first time

Naah man, we saw first hand with mama his her son got run over in half, guys spilling out while alive. And I'll be damn if the author ever found a way to have the some still alive after that, unless some supernatural shit is involved in this there's no way

oh youre definitley delusional

also, its a damn story and the author can write whatever the fuck they want. if you don't like it, go write your own version

People are allowed to express their opinions about fictional stories. If you can't handle it don't read it

This is like telling someone to make a movie just because they didn’t like your favourite movie. Really childish

I’m starting to feel like people who defend Trashta (seemingly like you) all fall into similar categories.
A) an abuser themselves
B)And enabler of an abuser (this can come in many forms
C)Is trying to be the opposite of everyone else just cause it makes them feel like “I’m not like everyone else”
D)Trying to be devils advocate or see the other side of things

For the nth time, I am not defendi the character. I am criticizing the writing. What's so hard to understand?

It really is not as childish as it seems. Since what your criticizing is the author's writing rather than the characters, you can always grab the flaws & plot holes that you don't like and write something that would be acquired to your tastes. You don't like it and that's alright. Everyone has different standards when it comes to work of fiction but you can't really expect to find a lot of works (especially in romantic works) to have profound or perceptive storylines.

Take in Colleen Hoover's work (if you know her) for example. It has simple writing; easy enough to understand for people, especially those who get back into reading, basic fundamentals from start to finish to set up the story, and characters that some readers can relate to. But even then, there are lot of people who hate and love her work despite that some people find it problematic and others don't. But people still read it because they want to read something that either grinds their gears or is able to take them in a world where despite that its wrong, it feels right. Yet, those who don't like it have started to write their own published work to make those who hate Hoover's work find a similar story but with the standards that they have.

You also have to take in for a fact who the author is, where they come from, what the standard of writing is, the culture alongside the history of their country to realize that there is a reason why it became popular in the first place. And it's not to ignore the fact that a lot of the manhwa has cut out critical information from the novel to make the plot of the manhwa flow better since not all can be fit in without slowing down the process of the art and chapters and the translation into English isn't always the cleanest.

I have seen you express your dislike and that's alright but sometimes, you won't always get the response you want or people to understand what your saying, especially if you criticize a beloved character from the author's writing since people won't always see it as criticizing the writing but rather the character itself. And I get you didn't write your original comment for others to agree, instead to be able to release all your frustrations you have when you realized that flaws that you point out. Just as much as people can disagree, they can also express their dislike towards your comment. Its like you said, 'if you can't handle it don't read it'. The same is applied to any situation that can be debated (it was also at 1am when I wrote that so I didn't have the necessity to elegantly write it out). You could've always had the option to stop replying and let people believe whatever they believe since whatever people believe or say about your comment and you has no effect on your life whatsoever but you still chose to engage. Its all just a chain reaction just like in the story because whatever your story or past is, does not matter compared to your actions.

I can write more and continue on since I am a bit intrigued by what you mean that you are criticizing the writing and what parts exactly but I have things to do and places to be. I only took the time to write this right now because its Saturday and I get to rest a bit more in the morning before work. I hope you have a nice morning/afternoon/day/evening and good luck on your stance.

It's childish because not every critic who can point out flaws in a fictional story is necessary a creator. Like when you can tell there's something wrong with the food you're eating doesn’t necessarily mean you're a chef

Thank you for not being rude like most other people in the comments :) I think people are obviously allowed to disagree with me but it’s kinda annoying when they don’t understand my point and keep parroting about how bad Rashta is when I never defended any of her evil actions! Getting this much hate is kinda surprising since I wrote a negative comment in Marry my husband but no one gave a shit except some dislikes.

My problem with the writing is the author using slavery as a plot device to create Rashta the villain. A while ago I read a bl manga where pedophilia and child prostitution was used as a plot device and it made me angry at the author because of how lightly they treated the subject and the victim was seemingly unaffected after everything that happened to him.

Here though, the author actually shows how much traumatised Rashta is after being abused as a slave. I just find it awful how she is made to be the villain by the author after enduring so much when Navier who has always lived the lavish life, sees no problem in people abusing slaves is made out to be the hero. In most other stories slavery is shown in a way for the protagonist to be the saviour of some 2nd male lead while slavery still being illegal in the story which I don’t think is as bad as how RE handles slavery.

Some people in my replies also told me to not apply modern world morals in a historical story but with that very morals I deducted Sovieshu to be a shitty person for cheating on his wife (which is seen as normal in the world they live) so why is it suddenly a problem for me to dislike the protagonist using that same morals?

I think the word you're looking for to better explain the 'childish' is fatuous or asinine thinking. And I can agree on your comment above. Not everyone is a creator and some are better at just being critics or editors so you got a point there. But still, it never hurts to try. But that's simply my way of thinking since I was raised on "take matters into your own hands" if I could.

No problem. I get it. I have dealt with a wave of hate before (not on here obviously) so it can throw you off. Either way, it falls on the way you deliver your words or the rush of adrenaline to just argue. It's also on the topic that people read what they want to absorb so things are lost in transition. My suggestion is to just ignore it if you can since all of us here are at fault illegally but we all just want to have a good time reading. ╮(￣▽￣)╭

also, its not like the author didnt give us a heads up on the angst part either. we got into this fully aware
