Huh.

Pretext: ive read all the way up till recent chapters and while the story IS NOT awful, i have critiques.

If i had the energy, these two would make me crash tf out. These two characters feel like complete pussies who can't commit to the bit :/

Big issue for me is that this resolution doesn't feel satisfactory. It feels like Mido never faced consequences, instead he just had sad boy hours, whereas jichan is just fucking delusional.

As far as critique goes, id revise Mido to be a fucking HATERRR bro- Not just lock him up and break his legs, but like, trying to break his sense of individuality. Even when the hatred cools and they kinda chillin, id find it interesting if Mido was still a petty ass hoe, reminding jichan that his ass put Mido in danger.

Id also love to see jichan as more or a THREAT. Manwha was tryna tell me bro was built like a weapon only for him to pull a Princess Celestia and fumble the bag in every confrontational opportunity. I wanna see jichan become emotionally jaded cuz he thought Mido was dead, and face a new Mido who is an absolute menace. I wanna see jichan break outta restraints and nearly kill mido

Instead of having that one dude try and screw jichan over, id love to see jichan and Mido come together because they were forced to solely rely on one another, whether it be because jichan's gang turned on him, Mido's experiments were found to be illegal by law enforcement, etc. Because this would force the characters to be greatful for eachothers help in some capacity, despite their history.

I would love to see that toxic on toxic dynamic that is unabashedly unhealthy, because this toxic on toxic that is pretending to be emotionally enlightened (for a lack of better word) shit is just lowkey annoying. I wanna see freak on freak bro- not a freak on victim.

Now this set of ideas is written without much thought tbh, I'm sure whatever I'm saying has it's own set of wrinkles to be ironed out- but like I said: i have this feeling that the authors wanted a toxic story but didn't wanna commit to the toxicity, and created a bit of a mess.

    A pretty good comment -- you verbalized it so well why I find this story rather annoying.
