I really really hate the 'misunderstanding trope'. It can be used well like the twist in father i dont want to marry, but its often for stuff like this where the FL grew up feeling hated becuase her family is brain dead and isolate her with their 'overflowing love' that they can't do something as simple as say i love you or be careful. Cant they be better written? Even the abusive family who hates that the FL killed her mother during birth is better written as there is some motive for their actions.
I was interested in the art but now my interest is in the negatives
Im like 4 ch in and its going to be very hard to proceed. Not only do we have to deal with some rather dire depictions of discrimination and the social impedments for every little thing, we also have to see some realistic depictions of how bad medicine used to be. Hell we also have to see things like excessively poor hygine and the harshness of life in the victorian era.
Basically we will get a historical fantasy with the romance stripped away. It will be hard to follow without feeling sick/overwhelmed with the depictions
I always hated a FL who feels utter despair with her situation and extreme abuse and just go along with it. I get how some people are resigned to their circumstances, but they are usually depicted as 'strong' or 'resistant' and the like, yet they do nothing?! Thats why I have extreme respect for this FL who killed her abuser and commited arson. She realized the consequences of her actions were worth a desperate grasp at freedom and retaliation against trash. She had nothing left to lose (like a hostage) so her doing that is awesome. Im also happy that she isn't a psycho and is kinda traumatized by her actions. Shows she has strength to commit to tough decisions while also being very human and panic
Kay around ch 25 you get background on the desert dungeon and I gotta say Im impressed. I thought it was going to be a generic solo leveling knockoff with skeletons of increasing strength, but now I can appreciate the individual story and respect it as it's own work.
I hope his limited number of skeleton servants stays fixed and its their individual ability that grows. This limit is clearly defined and I feel like help characterize the story. It feels wrong to change that until maybe last minute or something.
Also anyone else finds it super suspcious that he and the s rank necromancer awakened around the same time? I feel like the reason hes so weak is that the other is stealing his power. Personally i like the idea as it establishes a reason for a future conflict and a storyline
Normally I hate harems, but I really love the over the top reactions from this guy and always find milf hunters to be kinda funny in their pursuit of kink.
Harems, are ok, but only if you know the story will end in harem route, when you read romance with harem, you will get one dude and multiple girls who are fighting over him and you have no clue who he will end up with, that is a shitty harem, I hate it so fking much it's insane, but stories like this? The whole point is that everyone basically wins, and you don't have to scratch you head while thinking who is endgame, while it's not anything to write home about, it's fun read for sure.
Ill give it a higher rating than like 90% of the erogame isekais. Im not against the adult content, but it feels like the direction of those stories is too muddled. I like how this protagonist has genuine insecurities and basically body dysmorphia. It gives him purpose and something to aspire to
Kay usually i dont feel bad for the antagonist, especially if they're obtuse about the pain they cause, but I really pity persen. He should have more awareness and if he did care he would understand how he has been hurting her, but at the end he was extremely selfish. Thing is I kinda understand if he's been abused for so long by his father (the true villain) he clings to the one who brings him comfort.
I just feel bad for him, like I hope he can actually move on and hopefully rebuild his friendship.
Same and Fl is annoying me . Instead of explaining to persen whats bothering her and trying to rebuild their friendship she straight went to “ hate you” like her whole approach was just wrong man and she’s also stupid why would you go around saying u got a gold mine. the whole plot is like fl cant do shit on her own I hate when they make theFl need the Ml to defend herself or get shit done.
While i sometimes feel like revenge can consume a protagonist too much, I do like it on occasion. Plus its not really revenge as much as removal of actively hostile elements
Not romantically, though i hope shes like a step sister to avoid incest. No, im with her on killing the brother if not the palace. I really hate a protagonist who leaves monsters a live. People who repeatedly show they are fine murdering innocent people. At that point all future deaths are the protagonists fault when it was extremely obvious the antagonist has no morals. Gods i hope hthe brother doesn't live because of misguided mercy
