i don't think it's a pity party, i think it's actual character development.
I get that a lot of people feels rape is unforgivable (before u attack me; I agree tbh), but the author clearly disagrees.
and even tho seme did terrible things, he is GENUINELY sorry (don't fucking come up and say it's crocodile tears, you read the story too, it's so fucking obvious he's genuinely sorry, you LITERALLY read his mind. his apology IS true), and he is TAKING ACCOUNTABILITY. So no, it's not a pity party, because he's not deflecting blame or playing victim (not anymore at least). If he continues this path, he'll end up becoming a better person. It's character development.
Feeling bad after repeating the bad things you do isn't character development, it's like me stealing and doing it over again and the only thing different Is I feel guilty after, I get he feels bad but that's just feeling something not doing something to change
I disagree with the other commentor, this is totally a pity party. He feels bad & guilty because he got caught & MC decided to leave him. So now he's trying to do damage control. That's what it's coming off as. Seme had alot of opportunities to do the right thing, & he thought about it, & still chose to just keep violationing the MC.
Sorry I'm venting cuz this chapter frustrated me so much!!
he stopped doing it though? And he IS trying to be a better person too? And he's changing his personality slowly, becoming more empathetic and compassionate. It's not a pity party, it's character development.
This is gay fiction in a manhwa. It's a low-grade-writing about practically gay porn, don't analyze it like it's fucking Kafka. What you see is what it is: the bitch seme IS sorry, he IS becoming a better person.
If this is an actual literature with more depth or if this is real life, obviously you're right, but it's NOT.
I get so frustrated with ppl like u sometimes, it's like you're absolutely blind to context. Why are you relating this dumb ass fiction with reality, your own experience, or acting as if it's a higher form of literature with things to look into? This shit is shallow asf, the seme IS sorry, you LITERALLY READ HIS MIND.
WHY are you bringing real life logic into it?? It's like you're pulling out a chemistry formula just to answer 2+2, like bro why??? Get the context bro.
If you just had said: This manga has shit logic and it doesn't fit my taste, that actually would have made sense more.
You saying that the seme isn't sorry and that this is a pity party is plain wrong, because it's LITERALLY not what happened. You're like making your own story if you said that.
sorry if I sounded aggressive but it's just so frustrating that you don't get the basic logic of a context.
If you want to read something with more depth or multiple interpretation and make up your own pov of the story then go read Franz Kafka or David Foster, NOT a hyper-unrealistic gay manga on a hack site.
Look like someone struggle with basic criticism skills
exactly! thank you
exactly! making a conscious decision to change because you realize what you're doing is wrong and abusive Vs. "if I don't change I will lose him so I have no choice" are NOT the same. This isn't the character development the other commenter thinks it is... he's just desperate now and ofc will do anything to do damage control. He had every opportunity to do things differently in this life and do right by Geolson, but instead he chose to blackmail and violate him over and over again.
I hate it when writers try to throw a pity party for scumbags like him and want you to feel bad for them or something MC has to be the most fcking stupid idiot to go back with him... once a pushover always a pushover I guess
