Why are people complaining about his looks and "old" attitude? Are you guys not reading and comprehending?
Up until now he's been depressed for a long time because he's lacking things that he thought would be fulfilled by now, he barely has friends, no hobbies, no motivations, and a few of his friends accomplished something that he deems very important: a stable partner and a family, his friends have accomplished one of his dreams, he might also feel left behind.
He's also an almost 40 year old gay man, and in one of the panels he said that it was hard to have a relationship precisely because of homoxesuality, which means that in the context of this story homosexuality is frowned upon making it harder on him to navigate the society in search for a partner, he also said that it was just a hassle, as if even getting himself out there and just try is not worthy, this is just so sad.
He's on autopilot, eat, sleep, go to work, repeat, of course is going to take a toll on him and make him look older and very tired, and of course is going to affect his libido as well.
This is very sad, I'm finding myself in a similar situation and sometimes I wonder if anything is even worthy anymore, I feel stuck :(
First I'm going to start by saying that this is obviously a beginning artists so FOR ME the art is okayish, it'll get better with time and practice.
But I'm still irked and want to talk about this in general since using these models has become the new normal since years ago, and I've seen a lot of beginner art's having the same issue.
Now to the sauce:
This is what using 3d models for a pretty background does to beginners artists, it atrophies their drawing skills or it strays them from the point, they spent so much time looking for good 3d models to form a certain esthetic in their comic, that they forget the most important thing is the correct drawing of their own characters, the model already saves you time because you don't need to draw the background and sometimes even the shoes they wear, use that time to draw the characters better.
We DON'T NEED these elaborate 3d backgrounds that these manhwa authors and artists have been pushing. Just DRAW a couple of extremely simple backgrounds and for some others just leave it blank, use minimal backgrounds, DON'T use elaborate models if you're a beginner because all these very real models with accurate measurements just make your very beginner drawings look way worse.
If he has memory issues why doesn't he write things down? I got some memory issues as well, so I write almost everything down and put the notes somewhere I know will always be on my sight or I'll forget where I put the notes as well lol. If I'm moving around then I put the paper in a pocket with a part of the paper a bit outside so that I don't forget that I have notes on me and in which pocket.
Maybe he also forgot he has memory issues LOL
I reckon from his situation that he probably dont know how to read let alone write lol
Doesn't*, cuz like i mean nia is def like an orphan or soemtheng and he grew up with these abuses and discriminations, considering hes a goldfish and low stat he def doesnt know how to read and write probs cuz he such a cute little dummy prescious idiot
In the first few chapters, I noticed the side of the wall next to his bed is filled with sticky notes. Maybe he does write them down hence he doesn't forget after he wakes up, but probably still forgets most of them during the day when he is working(he doesn't seem to be bringing a note and pen or isnt allowed to)
I think he does know how to read because there are tons of books in his room.
Who knows maybe those aren't notes and are pictures, and I don't think they'll prohibit him to bring a booknote along because they depend on each other's work to keep the house running, so everytime he's behind on a chore, they're behind as well because they need him in other places, that's why they get mad at him when he doesn't finish kr do things on time.
There's also the possibility that the books in the room aren't his, maybe the room was used as a small deposit before he arrived and they just left the books there, but the workers are very careful with their master's stuff, I don't think they will leave his things there with the "stupid" goldfish.
I don't know about this, I think I might need to let it marinate because for ME the blackmail seems nonsensical until now, he's a cop, he can protect his father by assigning his friends cops to him, and he can protect himself by getting out of the mission because his cover is already blown, there is absolutely no reason for him to stay there, if he's smart enough he can imprison the seme for rape because he can obtain proof of the rape with a rape test, and while the seme is detained they can keep doing other research on his criminal activities and add those charges too.
But is barely been two chapters, I better wait to see how it plays out, maybe there's more the seme is saving up to himself to use it later and really trap the uke with no way out.
I like the how the seme looks too, I love it, he looks properly intimidating, properly old and manly, very different from these supposedly criminal semes that look more like cute celebrities trying to cosplay as an intimidating person and don't even look properly mature.
I know the art style upgraded many chapters ago but I can't get over it and wanted to comment on some stuff.
Guys, please, go back to chapter 1 and other earliest chapters and take a look at Eun the MC, then come back and take a look at the latest chapters, I like how the new art style is smoother and less grayish, but let's be for real, is like he's de aging in every chapter, as if he's a younger version of himself, very child like, the artsyle for mc changes in a same chapter sometimes too, is weird.
Open another tab and put a panel from first chapter then open another one and put one from the latest chapters and the difference is outstanding, is like we're seeing a younger brother of mc taking the place of the mc, ml is looking a tiny bit younger too, smoother and not so rough but at least he looks almost the same. Is like those manhwas with tall a bit muscular mc or with a more mature face and suddenly they get twinkified even harder or get de aged, what is going on? Lol
Regarding the colors, I like it a lot, I feel like whenever they're happy colors are more vivid like, then gets more greyish again in fights or sad moments giving the colors their time to immerse us in what is going on, I really enjoy that.
In one chapter Saha said that is complicated to leave now due to Heetae, but he owes nothing to him and doesn't care about him, why would he use that as an excuse to stay? And then ml says that he will kill for him, I think this is because both of them want things but need a push from another one to do it and look for excuses somewhere, Saha said Heetae but we know he wants to stay for Heesu, and Heesu said he will kill for Saha but we know he wants to do it for himself and stop whats dragging his life even thought he tries to not pay attention to it and acts free.
Is been 13 chapters, why does the author keep using the same clothes on all characters this whole time? Is weird since they're rich with "class" and the mother prides herself very much on that. It reminds me of those games were you need to gather game currency to buy clothes so you're stuck with one clothe until you level up lol.
But I've also been thinking, what if its symbolic? The top is the only one that has changed clothes so far both at home and the university, everyone else just wears the same everyday, maybe it has a meaning since he's the only one that has a different view regarding Heetae and his own life, he also goes out of the house to different places while everyone else is stuck with Heetae, even when the mom goes out is to the hospital so is still Heetae centered, or maybe I'm just overthinking and author said "fuck it, everyone will wear the same, I'm tired, peace out" hahaha
Heetae has changed clothes too, at least twice I think, maybe is because the problems are centered around him so the change in clothes for him means how everyone seems to be revolving around his life and his future.
Omg please! Just please stop using dark blue font with black letters, is so hard to read! Use a lighter blue or change the color of the letters to white
Still can't get over chp 1 dialogue "children born trough natural birth [...] may inherit DNA that could increase the likelihood of BECOMING CRIMINALS" broski WTF! Damm I have that criminal in me fr! wonder how many possible criminals are on this comment section HAHAHA
I hate egotistical characters that we're supposed to like because they're aloof and "quirky"98 and thats "cute". The blonde seme, even in the bedroom in chapter 12 all he could think about was himself, Yoo wasn't in the mood at all and just offered to suck him off because blonde's words were reminding him of his guilt trauma from the past, and at work he's always so fucking grabbie, this is borderline childish not exactly aloof adult, that infantilization is very fucking weird, they could lose their fucking jobs, is not normal behavior WTF.
*not aloof I meant airhead
