A redemption arc won’t save any of the original people surrounding MC can be saved by giving them a redemption arc. I don’t care if they all of a sudden feel bad and want to do better. Fine do better. But don’t try to hold onto the relationship with MC now that guilt has built up in your system. (︶︿︶)=凸

    Doesn’t this also apply to the mc?? Yes it’s a different person in her body but shes allowed second chances and no one else?

    I can see your point but I don’t quite think they are the same. Yes, original owner of the body did some wild stuff. A lot of those actions were reactions to the behavior done towards her. Doesn’t make it ok, but it’s totally different from someone mistreating a person in a variety of ways THEN only feeling bad after they realize the person is finally walking away. MC lashed out and caused problems yes. But she also attempted to let people know that she was hurting and needing help even if it wasn’t in the best ways. But she was ignored and eventually decided to give up. Current MC was treated the exact same way even after trying to resolve everything during what could be considered her 2nd chance.

    A lot of these characters wouldn’t even have a portion of a thought to maybe think about a second chance until it finally hit home that the MC no longer wanted anything to do with them/ seek out help from them. And now that MC is a new person, there’s not really a reason to continue giving everyone more chances when she’s been literally traumatized by the events that happened even while performing good deeds. I can understand for the brother(?) but for people like the fiancé? That doesn’t really make sense.

    Though this is just my opinion ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

    Yeah I was referring more to the brother in this case but I think for this story forgiveness should play a factor because if anything the fiancé reactions to her were bad but she wasn’t a good person so not saying it’s justified but he had already a impression of her based off her actions. And it changed because she changed idk if that made sense.

    Don’t worry, it made sense. I left a separate comment previously when there was less chapters out. I noticed the fiancé along with some of the others only changed their view of her and became concerned after they became uncomfortable due to her improved behavior. Like you said, she wasn’t always a good person which “justified” their actions in their minds. But when she started brushing things off and closing people out, it made them uncomfortable and start to feel guilty. Though I’m always kind of iffy towards stories that have characters who will go out of their way to find a reason as to why the MC is at fault just because they feel uncomfortable towards the possibility that they were in the wrong.

    As for the blonde guy……therapy and some socializing skills. Done let a man with trauma, unlimited resources, and nothing to lose do whatever he wants. At least he’s smart(?) though ( ̄∇ ̄")
