can i just show my appreciation for this chapter pls? give it it's flowers and applause?
CAUSE WOW.
Truly, this is low hanging fruit. But for me to praise a manhwa that just reach it is actually telling of how bad the writing is in modern manhwa, or in literature in general. I know there are certain factors that play in key on the quality of writing and stuff that goes on behind the scenes of weekly/monthly manhwas but thats a comment for another day.
This chapter (chapter 60) and the chapters beforehand starting at the start of the season ARE SOOO GOOD.
The introduction of the angels as beings that lounge around in pajamas with messy hair and beings that pass around and push back work.
As beings that are technically, doing good by following the system they set up. but seeing these supposed to be empathetic and caring and helpful angels be soooo far removed from humanity, to see their work as just "paper work" and for them to instantly judge humans using scenarios that lack context and nuance. (The cover-up scenario where our MC doesn't even know what he's covering up for + the trolley problem, a philosophical moral test thats known to have varied reactions based on different variables (AKA NUANCE(WHICH THE SCENARIOS LACK))
All of this is to establish the fact that the system these angels, and in extension hell and the whole world, abides and run on is systematically flawed and that there may be others like our MC that are innocent but still implicated and we may just never know because of how flawed and broken the system is.
wink wink nudge nudge S.Korea's, or in general, the world's messed up justice system wink wink nudge nudge
The "Angels actually not good???" trope has been overdone but it doesn't mean it can't be done well.
