I need authors to stop making characters dense and dumb as a bag of rocks. This is a common theme in every romance sub-genre. Yaoi, shoujo, etc. When Pinky said, “you can think for yourself after all.” I felt that because Minjis character just wasn’t cutting it. Making a character naive, overly trusting and forgiving is so played out and then their love interest is the opposite. I’m not saying that they can’t be nice but let’s have some backbone.
I felt like no one really had a personality in this story. The only time I saw their personality shine was in the flashbacks of them in high school. I wish this story would’ve started off with them in high school and then fast forwarded it to them in college.
Pinky’s reason for trying to draw a wedge between Yuna and Minji made no sense to me. It was stupid. I know there’s an antagonist in every story but Pinky was a stupid villain. It’s overdone but having Pinky be in love with Yuna or Minji without the whole dominatrix thing would’ve made more sense. Overdone but more logical. And then at the end, it’s just like, “okay. We forgive you.” She did some awful shit.
Lastly, the art is stunning. I don’t care what anyone says. It’s the only reason I didn’t drop it.
