thirst for angst is real. it's ok, we accept you
lmao thx
I don't like reading the big-time angst of tragedy but some low-key angst with happy ending is always fun right XD
Hm, not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for but this trope comes up quite well in the later part of "A painter behind the Curtain". Actually, there is even more than one annoying woman in there.
Either way it is a really good one, but the trope at the beginning is quite different from what you might be looking for and I personally love a little angst and tragedy IF there is a happy end.
What I really mean by tragedy is when one of the main characters dies (for good, without a reincarnation or something like Erha). There are other ways a plot can turn into a tragedy but that's the biggest taboo for me to read about in any type of plot. That's because recently my family members have died in accidents, so reading about it in fiction is a kind of trigger. I'll check out your rec, thanks!
Ashamed to admit it, but I like the BL trope where the relationship b/w MC and ML experiences some drama due to an annoying girl. Maybe the girl was supposed to be the original FL in a transmigration/reincarnation plot, or is just a sister, ex-gf or ex-wife. I'm a girl but I happen to like it when the annoying 3rd wheel is a girl...is there something wrong with me? smh (⊙…⊙ )
I know of some novels like this but I can't really recall this trope being used in manga/manhwa/manhua before... unless it's a novel adaptation. One last thing: I don't like reading tragedy or about abusive relationships with extreme scum ML (e.g., Paper Flower).
