pluviophiliac's manga / #depressing af(603)

soooo, i just took a little sneak peak… and OH MY GOD, IT LOOKS SO FUCKING GOOD, Y’ALL. I’M DEAD. super thirsty, too. i usually don’t start reading new stuff that only has a few published chapters, but i can’t contain myself this time. looks amazing. update: IT IS.

maaaan, this shit is hot as fuuuuck!!! uncomfortable as hell to read at times, but it’s so fucking steamy, ugh. (i have issues, clearly.) what a toxic mess... i still kinda ship it, though, i’m not gonna lie. well, unless things worsen even more. then i’m out. #whatever edit: soooo… things worsened. the ship sunk. (reaaaal hard.) but i’m still here!!! desperately awaiting a solid redemption arc; one in which i doubt COULD, in shape or form, ever make things fully ’alright’ again… however, i’m choosing to stay neutral at this point. you never know what’ll happen, after all. i just can’t believe we’ve reached this point, lol. we went from bad to worse to THE ABSOLUTE WORST real quick there, ma’am…! heh, my stockholm syndrome senses are tinglingggg. ;) in any case, i didn’t come here expecting some fairytale romance. i figured things were bound to get dark, even before i started… but i honestly never expected something like THIS. can’t say i’m particularly surprised by it, despite what i just said… but i really didn’t think things were all that bad. well, until now. we’ve reached the point of no return, i suppose. maybe i’m just delusional. this guy fuuucked uuuup, bro… like, MASSIVELY. it’ll haunt him for the rest of his life, i’m sure. sheesh. anyway, i’m kinda curious about the eventual conclusion!!! i have no idea where we’ll go from here. guess i’ll find out! edit #2: uh, so, um… it’s, uh, done. completed, finished, all wrapped up… and i kinda started shipping them again a couple of chapters ago, despite everything. LET ME EXPLAIN!!! i realize they’re fundamentally a toxic mess of a couple, and i know that we, them or anyone could never change their nasty past… but still, i just figured, “if yeoho can forgive him, why can’t i?” so yeah, that’s where we’re at currently. things ended on a surprisingly good note, though, so who am i to judge? or COMPLAIN, for that matter!!! they seem happy, and i don’t think things would ever revert back to how they were before—which is the main reason as to why i’m standing behind this statement. i really don’t think they’ll keep hurting each other anymore. or, more accurately, i don’t expect mr. woo to do any more damage. things are different now, clearly… (well, for NOW, at least… things could always change!!!) :) anyway, oopsie. could be worse i guess. as could i!!! P.S. AND NO, I DO NOT CONDONE RAPE, ABUSE OR MANIPULATION. THIS IS A FICTIONAL. STORY. WITH NOTHING BUT FICTIONAL. CHARACTERS. THIS WOULD NEVER FLY IN REAL LIFE. OKAY? OKAY. as long as we’re all clear on that. bye, then!

woooow. this is a lot more melancholic than i thought it’d be! excellent writing and emotional complexity. i’m genuinely surprised. i figured it’d be a wholesome, friends-to-lovers type of story, but THIS!!! this is turning out to be an unexpected—albeit fascinating—plot with an intriguing outcome! i’m truly looking forward to reading more of this. i have no doubt it’ll have a good finish once we’ve reached the end of the road at some point in the future. great, realistic character development, too! the way certain emotional elements and themes are being depicted in this story is extremely thorough and well thought-out. perfect portrayal of everything from depression to heartache to neglect—even the narcissism hits the nail on the head! whoever created these characters has an excellent understanding of psychology and the human psyche in general, i think. and to top things off, the art itself is nice and very expressive. overall, i’ve got zero complaints! update: it’s been a couple of weeks by now, and the story has finally been marked as ‘complete’. first of all, my original opinion hasn’t really changed since my initial commentary! it’s been an overall nice read, and i’d be interested in looking up any of the creator’s other works. (if there are any.) second of all, despite all this… ‘emotional turbulence’, if you will, i’m pleased with the ending, pacing and general development. it’d be nice with a short side story or something of the like as well! just to finish things off properly. that’d be the the cherry on top. :)

this one’s seeeriously fucked up. and i’m loving it!!! i’ll worship this woman ‘til the day i die, i swear. my god, this wicked sense of admiration and justification i feel for this person is next level powerful, man!!! she’s a literal GODDESS of manipulation. like a siren, only way worse. (if villainism was a person, heh…) i guess i should be overall frightened, if nothing else, but i’m really not. this is so refreshing!!! terrifying, but refreshing all the same. i’d probably lick the soles of her feet if she asked me to, not gonna lie. “she’s a nightmare dressed like a daydream,” as someone once said. extremely intelligent, unbelievably cunning and so, soooo fucking attractive. i love her. <33 she’s a horrible, horrible person… i’d 100% run for the hills if i met this fictional queen in real life, though. god, what a fearsome thought. however!!! bad bitches like verta 2.0 don’t come around all too often. ESPECIALLY as female leads… such intriguing dynamics!!! beautiful complexity, to say the least. edit: my god, she’s an actual fucking MENACE. at this point in time, i practically get chills ALL OVER my body whenever i read a fresh update. this is truly terrifying. her conniving genius is unparalleled. sighhh. i don’t know whether to laugh or cry anymore, i just can’t cope. a true villainess.

goddamn. that’s pretty freakin’ dark. i’m loving it, though!!! i appreciate that there’s plenty of room left for some proper character development… especially for richard, surprisingly! i think that’ll turn out to be quite interesting. (i’m making the assumption that he’ll end up being an important character later on.) although, it’s a shame that the translations aren’t exactly ‘up to par’, but it’s still manageable. i’ll be wishing for some decent improvement in that department at some point down the line… however futile such fantasies might be. either way, i’m excited to keep going! i just hope there won’t be too much of all the… unnecessary drama, if you catch my drift. i’m way too impatient for that stuff, sheesh.

well, it’s pretty good! surprisingly wholesome, quirky, albeit NOT-so-surprisingly depressing at times… with seoyoo’s frail mentality and all that… but an overall enjoyable reading experience! i love the dynamics between our two mains. their chemistry is just… *chef’s kiss*!!! this one ticks a lot of the boxes. decent smut, entertaining dialogue, expressive art, ‘realistic emotional depiction’, a fair amount of dramatics, and some appreciative clichés to top things off. can’t really complain! omega-verse comics always bring the excitement. ;) it’s just that… i get so. fucking. ticked. off. by our MC’s ridiculous obliviousness and emotional immaturity. he’s so dumb and irrational and impulsive, it’s not even funny. i’ve seen a lot of clueless characters in my day, but this is just… next level stupidity. HOW does seoyoo even reach these conclusions?! ON WHAT BASIS?!?! it bothers me; probably more than it should. ughhh, just freakin’ COMMUNICATE your worries… you’re the only one confused here!!! i understand his insecurities, and i understand his depression (i’m living with a severe case of both), but really…? i just feel so bad for seonghoon… poor guy’s dealing with a lot. ;_; he’s got the patience of a fucking SAINT, that’s for sure. i mean… i’m autistic, and i’d generally be considered pretty clueless (‘cause i am), but the guy’s literally SPELLING IT OUT for you, seoyoo, and you STILL don’t get it??? fuck in the what is going on here—
