Is this pulling a Futurama?! Cause if so I am... honestly I don't know what I'm feeling right now. (￣∇￣")
I know this is a fiction world. But aren't their backs tired. Cause my back hurts looking at these two women's chest. As a fellow big chested woman I couldn't imagine the pain and how annoying their best are. (￣∇￣")
This photo shoot screams Naoto-san and his pure love of his children. Ughh can't wait to read the spinoff. ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
I love the MLS mask so much and I wish they had made a mask for FL that gave the same feel, y'know? Like her mask is pretty, but its a masquerade ball mask, I wish they could have made a mask that was like a feminine version of Erden's. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Tristan is very irrational and deluded. It is very apparent not only with his drive for being on top no matter what method he uses but throughout this chapter he outright contradicted himself, within 3 panels. He said first Ivona has nothing, then says she has everything. Like, what?!! Which one is it baby? You can't have both at the same time-- logically. （￣へ￣）
Right? And one previous chapter was like him pretty much talking about how he is just using/manipulating Gaspal or something and now it’s a true love he had for him??? Tristan and Gaspal are garbaaaaaaage.
So please correct me if I come across as such... But Kou-kun being called they instead would be detrimental to the importances of pronouns. But I do know that sometime Japanese doesn't use pronouns when discussing a topic if it is obvious, or they have neutral terms.
And the importance of outward appearance is scary. So maybe if Kou-kun would experiment with it it could help with the anxiety she** is facing. I wouldn't want to insult her and say she looks dull but I know when I enter a manic low I dress dully to not draw attention to myself and my problems-- if that makes sense.
** I used she because Kou-kun did state her sex earlier but didn't state her pronouns. But if that is wrong please correct me on my mistake. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
Are you talking about how people call her “-kun” since she looks and dresses like a male? If so, that is actually pretty common.
The "-kun" when addressing females, commonly used by certain professions as a general honorific for their subordinates and/or equals that shows a bit more respect than just -san or -chan. "-kun" includes the subordinate as a member of you peer group which is why in the particular instance it can be more respectful than "-san" or “-chan”. You could see that Kou-kun is really good at games and such, so that is one way you could see her as respectable. In other words, when addressing a female as “-kun”, it means you’re close friends, family member or you respect that person.
You would generally see this in academics or politics. (￣∇￣")
...if that’s what you’re confused about- Σ( ￣□￣||)
Uhhhh, yes and no. Thank you for clarifying the "-kun" part. But I was also wondering if it would be wrong to call Kou-kun they instead of she, if Kou-kun didn't identify as they. I feel as though the raws would tell us the pronouns, possibly.
Sir, what right do you have to call yourself his dad? And to question his lifestyle and wishes? You don't have shit because you ain't done shit. You don't just walk into someone's life thinking you can just make their decisions just because they are your child by blood. You are his father, you are not his Dad. Those are two different titles(at least in my book). ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
PREACHHH
This might be wrong to do so but I think i came to a conclusion about bullying in Northeast Asia (ie China, Japan and S.Korea). They just love it, the bullying that occur in almost every story I have read from these countries are so extreme. And, yes, I know they are dramatic for the story but even the amount of shit that happens seems to be popular with the people there.
In my personal experience in the US highschool system( I have gone to 4 in 4 years) bullying is not nearly as aggressive, and even if in artistic pieces they aren't as brutally depicted as they are in stories like these.
Anything that revolves around people being lower than them seems very popular. Whether through gossip, ostrasizing, or outright bullying they just eat it up.
I came to this conclusion due to the wide assortment of manga/manwhas I have read. They all show similar patterns. And suicide is taken lighter than here in the US, at least in my experience. But imma continue to read some stuff that I like. But probably not this one, its getting kinda annoying.(●￣(ｴ)￣●)
I think your right because the northeast asian countries have such high schooling expectations and dont really care so much on mental health they react badly to these events and the bullying is proubly horrible in those country's and they have a high suicide rate do to it all I believe the bullying is due to people not able to break free from their stressful school life and understand themselves so they take it out on others.
American bullying is mellow though it usually only a bit of gossip and than it comes to physical fights and its usually over after a fight but not many people care to much about spreading rumors through my experience they could careless unless its actually become a major concern or it concerns themselves.
School and stress is also one of the reason but the number 1 MAJOR reason is STATUS...rich kids doesn’t matter male or female..some have nasty personality and what do you know..to boot their disgust behavior they are rich too...they like to bully the weak and this just repeat ..if you think you’re better than me..then I get bully sort of thing...it all comes back to the gap between the rich and the poor ..the inequality in regards to wealth in those countries as well as strict respect and high expectation that got these children corrupted...but then again bully will always be a bully despite their status and values
Yeah in the USA bullying is a thing but it doesn’t really occur as much in places with minorities, just mainly white areas. I’m a Latina and we don’t really bully we fight if we have an issue and get it over with yk. Like if somebody stole my bf or sum girl said something about me. And yeah sometimes let’s say girl A wins and she’ll for ever boast about it, but it’s not bullying bcs girl B would just probably fight her again or both would move on with their life after the first right. But I do see these coming plots with bullying in mangas being super severe and I just be like bro if it was me or any of my minorities friends we would have just beat they ass and moved on period.
Right!! I'm black and the way my mom raised me was "don't start the fight, but finish it". I just sit back and wonder why in the hell are they sitting back and taking it. But one of the comments above did talk about status. Status hasn't really meant anything to me, sure your parents make/have more money but that ain't stopping nothing.
Exactly I think it’s more about culture yk because yeah status does count but for example my home country is Dominican Republic, and the rich kids never associate with the poor obviously since there’s not really a middle class. But when the poor kids do go to college their not bullied they get discriminated and just have less power because they are poor but after they graduate it becomes sorta equal ground. So I guess that’s what they mean by status having to do with bullying, but nobody where I’m from would bully you based on status and if anybody had a problem they just fought it out but if it did get serious it wouldn’t be bullying it would be full on neighborhood fights for example gang violence yk. It’s all about culture because minorities all sorta have the same status, we are poor lower class, why would be bully each other? We just fight and move on with life we got too many problems to be being bullied. I think that’s something that’s happens to kids that are in middle class or upper class since they have all basic needs etc. But I agree I just be like yo fight that bitch if she slap you! Like grab anything and hit her even if you get beat tf up! What she gon do kill you! And even if she did at least you fought back yk but I understand that the asian culture is different from the Latin culture and black etc.
I mean you can talk about yourself but you can’t compare them...it is also because of the culture too but the real reason is just that their personality is actually like that too...all I can say is that manhwa/manhua stories that portrayed bully may be a bit exaggerated here but it does hold some truth of the real world..especially those part where..they bully you and “IF” you do fight back it won’t end at you only..your whole family end up with it..depend how superior they are to you..your whole family can get ruin...that’s why it’s not that “they” can’t fight back..it’s that they “know” better than to fight back cus they not only think about themselves but their family too...and what do you know when your parents actually got force to apologize despite knowing that it’s not your fault...idk if it sound too cliche but it does happen in country like China and Korea ...
Also in the US..they can bully you like an ass but they can’t do shet to ur family and that’s why you never thought about it...but it’s very very different in Asia country..Japan is a bit different tho
Yeah I definitely get your point, i wasn’t trying to compare it, I was explaining how its different and how we view it. I totally agree too it’s about personally a little too cause some people aren’t as bold and their personality is not a fight back type. But I don’t really know how to solve the issue with bullying in places like Asia where it’s something so normalized other than them just changing their culture which is something that’s not gonna happen yk. But it is kind of annoying seeing soo much of it in mangas be so over exaggerated so that’s why I sometimes think things like just fight back! Not as like an insult or trying to be offensive but personally if people from my culture ever went to Asia and were in high school they would not let it be and would fight back because of being from a culture where when you are operases you fight to the death kind of thing, is what I meant. You can even look up Dominican history when they were colonized they fought back with machetes no matter if they died and got their land back etc, to prove my point that the culture is just like and that’s why I also think like that not trying to say anything offensive.
Oh no I got you lol but I was just stating it about comparing...and yes culture play big role in it. But the frustration part is actually how other people can manipulate others to bully u too u know. Like how that one person don’t like you but his whole gang and all the other people that want to suck up to him or like him will also make u their target lol is just really messed up but I gotta say they can’t do nothing about it unless they change the system and the way they think (be more open minded)...this change it’s actually for the older generation to change bcus they have set this example which is not a healthy one to the youngster...
But bro you good...I’m just stating/commenting my opinion ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Ohhh ok ok got it! Yeah it’s gonna be hard for them to change their culture it’s gonna be up to the younger generations to teach their children different and hope for a better future!
Maybe im just confused but her brothers are all her mother's children are they not? Like they would be half siblings... so even if she was illegitimate on the duke's side she's still the dutchess' child...
They're all legitimate, when Leonora was conceived the soul of the Prince was transferred to the father's body thus letting a little of his mana into Her body , but she is indeed their child . The rumor that she is not their child is spread by the princess
Yea I get that but I'm just saying if she was the Duke's illegitimate child that still wouldn't make her not related to the boys yk. I know I'm thinking to hard into this but I just feel like the push and pull between her and the brothers is weird yk
i feel you..it's nit like she was picked elsewhere making her not part of the interity of the family tree, her thinking that way and telling her brothers they're nit related is quite tretch but you know technically in her head they're not really related only by
the shell the content isn't, so its like half wrong half correct.
I believe it's because if they're born from cheating, they will be treated as illegitimate regardless. Then usually the illegitimate child will get disdain and be hated by the legitimate child. I believe Lini is just protecting herself there, she doesn't wanna get hurt the second time she's assuming things so she wouldn't get hurt (though by doing that she's hurting herself)
I agree. As frustrating as it was. I think that was her self defense reaction. Reject before being rejected...
