I don't hate him, but I'd rather he be a brother to her or end up with Lara. I just think he makes a cuter big brother for Anastasia ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Plus, I thought the dress foreshadowed who the ml would be. Otherwise, what's the point of putting it in the story. It's like when that fortuneteller in Avatar told Katara that she'd end up with an amazing bender then her brother just happens to say he's an amazing bender which pushes her from oh, Aang is family to hey, maybe he's the one I marry.
Personally I dislike the trope of them starting as viewing each other as siblings, since they grew up together in mostly the same household- then them becoming romantically involved is just… offputting. Unless the writing is really good or they have a pause seeing each other, the moment they consider their relationship familiar I not supporting anything romantic.
Was traumatized from a story in which a woman practically raised these 3 kids, then they grew up to be obsessed with her- also one was trans as a child then… they grew out of it?? There was a whole arc about it and everything smh ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
(⊙…⊙ ) I can see the trauma of that. Also, what? NGL, when you first mentioned trans, I thought they had both parts, but that's so weird that they did that? What possible explanation could they have given to be like oh, I thought I was trans because of this, but then I realized I could be my og gender and still like this? ┑(￣Д ￣)┍ that is weird as heck tho. The backpedaling is insane sometimes.
I agree
Why does everyone not like Mikhail as the ml? Seriously asking, I don’t get it. Can some of u tell me why you hate Mikhail?
