While it is true that Ethan was doing things behind Dorothy’s back (especially in the past), all of his actions (even the misguided ones) were for her. Yes it was because he loved her, so there was a selfish motive, but honestly compared to Theon’s whose actions were more selfish (I get that he didn’t want to die to the spirit, but he could have been open and honest about his situation), Ethan is a much better person in my opinion. Even though he is still a schemer (one’s personality can’t completely change), he’s more open about it. And in all honesty, in my opinion Theon is now worse than he was in his past life because now he’s “in love” with Dorothy, but his actions are still mostly driven by his own self preservation.
Yeah that’s actually fair, I’m not feeling too strongly about either of them for that reason. I just think it needs a lot more work but with the way the story is progressing now I think attention might be pulled away from the romance aspect. I’ll still be sticking around for it, but I hope to grow into Ethan by the end at least
Yeah, unfortunately manhwa’s aren’t always able to catch all the little details that novels can. Which can inhibit your ability to really get into certain characters or storylines.
Lowkey can’t get behind Ethan as the ML cuz he was always doing stuff behind Dorothy’s back and he seems a bit too obsessed and I don’t feel like I could fully trust him. I thought it was gonna be more of a story behind Theon and Dorothy’s relationship changing and seeing how this new chance at life would alter their budding romance, but I guess not
