you are right bro...you are right ....
8 people downed this but 24 upvoted, I'll read it myself and see what's the fuss is ABT, also cuz everyone is praising this manhua
I think the ones who disagrees with me are people of not legal age or problematic people. When I was a teenager and read stories like that, I never found anything weird about age gaps or the whole concept of “he watched him/her grow up and now they are in love”. Because, well, I was a child and didn’t understand it. Now, however, when I’m much older, I can’t stand this sh*t. Especially when I go back to manga/manhwa/manhua I used to like as a teenager and realise how fucked up they actually were.
In one relationship, it’s a teacher and a student. The teacher literally adopted the younger guy when he was a child. So like… not only there’s an age gap, but he is also an adoptive father… wtf. The second one is a servant and a student. The servant watched the younger guy grow up and was already experiencing romantic attraction WHEN HE WAS A CHILD. What the fuck. Then there is also a principle of their school who looks like a 8yo kid (but actually is hundreds of years old lmao) and saying perverted things, while looking like a literal child. Atp I’m convinced that the author is into shotacon.
The main couple also has an age gap, but at least they both look young and the top acts like a child his age. And I think author themselves forgot that he is supposed to be 50+ years old, because later they meet his OLDER sister that is a human, but, for some reason, is in her mid twenties? The math isn’t mathing. This just ties with my problem with awful plot development and writing of this manhua.
The idea of this manhua is good, but the execution is just ass. The writing and plot development is ass.
So I’m convinced that people who love this manhua are: 1. Teenagers 2. Problematic people who don’t mind pedophilia 3. The type of people who just ignore all the problematic shit and just focus solely on the things they like. I mean, if you look at my review for “My Suha” there were people jumping me for not liking a character who is a rapist, so people are weird.
It’s good that you want to check it out for yourself and form your own opinion. Lmk (if you want) later what you thought of this manhua.
I didn't expect anyone to reply to my comment but thank you I'll still read this for the mc, I'll just skip the side characters ig, I don't like that tropes too where the other MC watched the MC grow up and get together with them, it's really disgusting and weird, it's more of a deep rooted mutual dependency than romantic feelings in general and it's very toxic
I am a grown adult, so seeing shotas/lolis legit makes me feel uncomfortable and disgusted. Especially when one of them is in a romantic relationship with a TEACHER (who is also a demon and is much older than he looks).
I understand looking young, but NOT that young. The principle looks like a child (with his height and appearance he looks like he is 8 years old), which I hate, because he is also acting like a child + a little perverted? Then the human helper also looks MUCH younger than he is suppose to be, which is like 17-19 years old (he is also acting like a child, but, in contrast, also has/uses a dildo, which is VERY sus??), and in a relationship with a teacher? Furthermore, with a teacher that watched him grow up/raised him??? I almost threw up.
Then there is Theo and his servant?? The servant literally watched him grow up since Theo was a little kid. And he had feelings for him? For a child he basically raised? Beugh… What the fuck is wrong with the author…
I see author’s fetish and I legit cannot enjoy this manhua. This is disgusting and disturbing. And I’m not even starting with an age gap between 19yo MC and 50+ yo ML. That makes it THREE really concerning relationships and all of them are important and semi-important characters??
Btw, they say in the beginning that ML (Fu Yu) is 50+ years old, but later in the manhua they visit his mom and his sister (who is a few years older than him and a human) still is pretty young. Meaning, his mother should’ve died a long time ago and his sister should’ve been an old woman by now, but no. Just a big plot hole I want to point out.
The itself plot is mediocre and has so many dumb and unnecessary moments that were making me roll my eyes (like when human helper purposely sent MC to gay club to get assaulted(?) or get in trouble just because MC was coping better about not having a full family… What…?). Furthermore, the plot development is cringy and clumsy. For example, the plot line with Theo and MC. So much build-up just to end it so abruptly, which was underwhelming. Dude was looking for MC for a decade or more just to suddenly give up because MC started to develop feeling for ML and go straight to alcoholism? Like… what? It all started and ended so quickly that Theo’s reaction feels overdramatic and made me roll my eyes. And it’s just one example out of countless.
The final battle with BBEG was also very disappointing. The whole manhua it was very vague what exactly the bad guys wanted. They kept feeding the special poison to demons just… because (they never explain it properly how it adds to their overall plan. i think they were doing it just to test it but idk)? They also attack the ball to… erm… just cause chaos? Then suddenly they just throw everything at the reader without any build-up, introduce THE BBEG out of nowhere and defeat them (the BBEG is sexless/could be a man or a woman) in few chapters. Very underwhelming and disappointing.
Characters are not enjoyable too. I love our MC and ML is… okay ig. He changes towards the end of manhua, which is good. Love that for him. The rest are just so plain or actually annoying and just straight up bastards. Other characters appear like 3-5 times the whole manhua and I just don’t understand why even waste time giving them screen time when they are not even relevant. And I’m not talking about MC’s mom or actually important side characters. I’m talking about characters like the butterfly demon girl that first appeared for the ball. I mean, I love her. She is one of the only characters who is in a normal relationship with her girl best friend, but she appeared two times the whole manhua. Why even add her and tell her story when she is NOT relevant to the plot whatsoever? Instead of actually flesh out the characters, their motivation and main characters’ relationship - author just wastes time on unnecessary things.
I wish that author, instead of throwing countless characters and developing problematic relationships, actually focused on the main couple and the story.
Anyways, throw tomatoes at the author. I know what you are.
