I'm well aware she's probably going to be a romantic challenge for abigail but the mermaid saying "my destined partner" for some reason makes me think the author is gonna pull a twist and have the mermaid actually be reffering to abigail XD
when you think about it would make sense because mermaids are female so being into girls wouldn't be that weird
maybe it's just me but it seems like 3/4 of the characters treat nene like crap or seem to not give a shit about what happens to her as long as they get what they're interested in even she was the one who helped them in the first place
but it feels the strongest with these 3 motherfuckers I just cannot like no matter how much I try
- TERU, kou's sadistic older brother literally only seems to intervene with her because of kou himself being involved (bro-con) he constantly looks down and treat nene like an idio with a smile on his cocky ass face
- AKANE (the guy) his entire personality is him being OBSESSED (Not in love, OBSESSED) with aoi and treats nene like a freaking doormat and I can bet you all my money had aoi asked him to kill nene he'd do it in a heart beat without giving a shit
- then theres AOI herself who might easily be the worst out of all of them and to be honest I have to hand it to nene she's a WAY bigger person than I would ever be
aoi takes the cake out of all of them because not only did she pretend to actually be friends and care for nene she legit didn't bat an eye at the chance to let nene fucking DIE....let that sink in, FREAKING MURDER and then we're just supposed to forgive because "whoa is me nobody likes me for me" YEAH NO SHIT DUDE THE REAL YOU IS CAPABLE OF ENDING ANOTHER HUMAN'S LIFE
personally I could never get over sumi telling karasuma that he was lucky someone could ever love him just cause he slept around. It would be one thing if karasuma was a useless and unqualified person that just slept around to keep his position but in reality it had been pointed out several times that he's an skilled and accomplished employee
but he soon realized just how bad and sneaky the work world he was entering was so he did what he thought he needed to do survive in that work enviroment as an omega when talent and hardwork wouldn't allow him to escape that label even if it was collaterally self destructive.
it's remarkably more bitchy since karasuma was never hostile towards sumi, helped him out and even recognize his talent as an employee but sumi just degrades him at any chance he gets (I'm not dismissing his trauma btw but still that's a coworker you're berating on the first meeting)
what pains me even more is how much karasuma also believes the same and doesn't fight him on it. He's so submissive and just plain at peace and content with his mate and healthier life choices that he just doesn't want sumi to get dragged in his past and then he's just met with such nasty words. I don't care if this is supposed to be the "better" story because the bottom wasn't a quote and quote "slut"
your sexual history DOES NOT determine your worth as a person. Sorry if society has made you think otherwise
......unless you're a pedophile, if so burn in HELL
Guys I'm saying this to save yall some time and frustration but be prepared for a good 250-400 chapters from this manhwa the novel is LOOOOOONG AF and theres even a riftan's pov version that has like a shit ton of backstory on why he is the way he is
it's almost a 100 chapters and we still have only seen like 1/8 of the story so
I suggest maybe putting this one on hold for a couple months...maybe even a year or 2 tbh
Literally just letting ya'll know because I see lots of people getting exasperated and this like the LEAST stressful part of the story ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I'M CRYING, YOU'RE CRYING, WE IS ALL CRYING
THIS WAS A BLESSING THAT FELL UPON US
SHIT GOT ME BELIEVING IN LOVE AGAIN FUUUUUCK （/TДT)/
YES, omfg they'll talk about it and figure it out together,
it won't be one of those "I won't tell anyone anything I'll just try to solve it on my own and make literally everyone around me worry about whatever the fuck is going on with me because that's gonna be waaay better than them worrying about the actual problem I won't talk about"
YOU'RE GONNA LEAVE US WITH THAT CLIFFHANGER FOR 2 YEARS??? and actually now that I think about it, it's even worse news for us who read illegally since that equals even MORE waiting because we don't even know if a translator will pick it up
ALSO SPRING 2025 that's like march - june saying "spring" could easily be in june
This also personally feels like a BAD buissness move on the mangaka's part I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure this is their longest running project and it's really not a good idea to let it get cold for so long since people can forget about it
I high key really LOVED how instead going the usual route which was for him to beat up her trash brother he's like, "darling don't be rash, here do it with this_____, no need for YOU to get hurt too my love" like he KNOWS she can do it herself and that it's her fight and that even so he'd be more than happy to do it for her in case she didn't want to continue the altercation herself
