i thank the lord that they did not include a rape scene or any overtly disgusting sexual assault ♀ the scene was still horrible bc of what it implied but it wasn’t gratuitous for the sake of shock. other BLs should take a page out of this book and realize a chapter or two of the mc getting brutally violated is not needed…
based off chapter 8, im just throwing a guess out into the world that they are reincarnating soulmates or smth. like maybe mc doesn't remember imprinting bc he imprinted with his old esper, who is the ml now, and their soul energy or whatever continues into the new body
I could be totally wrong but that would be a cool twist
am i the only one disappointed that everyone knew her plan all along... idk she's set up to be this mastermind and then everyone knows. Makes her feel kind of lame. Like if the ml and real dad knew thats whatever, but everyone kind of ruins the fun and drama. It's lowkey rushed and maybe could've worked if everything isn't just flashbacks
wait im a little confused.... does the mc not have the stigmata on this new body? im reading the mature version and i cant tell if he doesnt have it and i just didnt pick up on that or if the artist just forgot to draw it or maybe the hair is covering it?
and if the mc doesnt have the stigmata on his back, is it bc the ml didn't die yet in this new timeline?
i swear to god if this mc listens to that worthless piece of shit im gonna be soooo mad... like u were literally raped and held captive by this perverted asshat and u'r gonna listen to him?? like why would u ever walk into the arms of ur rapist. ur rapist will never have ur best interest in mind. And the fact that this sub-human freak thinks the mc looks his best when he was a lifeless slave?? disgusting
i still cant believe the author didnt even like the 2nd couple's bottom originally... they did such a wonderful job with the redemption and the second couple overall, just chef's kiss. might even go as far as to say one of my fav bottoms in all bl
why did they change the seme so much? Kinda wish his face/hair cut stayed the same post-growth spurt. Like if i saw the seme, I too would be like "who tf are you?" deadass a whole ass different person
since they are taking inspo from the grid system (and making it seem like peak urban planning), i wish the author had taken inspo from La Plata, Argentina. i think La Plata makes the grid system look aesthetically pleasing and not boring, plus adding diagonals just makes sense. I agree with everyone else about there being a lack of greenery, sewage systems, building variation, and commercial/public buildings.
also, this manga has a great premise, but the plot and characters feel one-dimensional. idk its missing a certain spark that would make it interesting. I see potential ofc but it feels mid.
i wanna know why the mc is stuck in this game, and why the ml is like so sus... the plot is too good, and i can't let it marinate i need all the chapters rn
i don't think the ml is polyamorous like some people in the comments are saying. He didn't even love any of his past partners. He didn't even see his past gfs as real partners, just people who gave him attention. The only person he cares or ever cared about is the mc. He made that clear when he got rid of all the gfs without much thought and has since made no indication of wanting other gfs while with mc.
However, the relationship with all those girls was a polyamorous relationship, since all the girls + ml were aware that multiple people were in the relationship. But, the ml is not a polyamorous person, given how he acts in a serious/real romantic relationship.
That polyamorous relationship only worked bc none of the parties were romantically involved. The girls saw ml as a pet/doll, and ml got the attention he wanted. It was more of a series of situationships imo
I think I like the second couple so much more than the og couple, and it's not even close...
damn these comments are making me feel like the only one who likes the ml better. this blonde guy is sus, like he's going through the motions without actually feeling anything deeper than surface level.
the chibis are the cutest things eveeeerrr ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
do people have any recs for BL from the top's pov, preferably with no love triangles or cheating/sleeping around.
it doesn't have to be exclusively from the top's pov. idk if you've read Stigmata (yaoi), but it can be like that, where a good chunk of chapters are from the top's pov.
i feel like the ml deserves his happy ending... he was literally bad bc he was manipulated by outside sources (aka mc's dad, royal family, priests, and that snake woman) and bc he didn't know what love was until he lost it. like it was a classic miscommunication trope. could he have been a better father in the first life? yeah probably. but in his first life he was a (mentally) weak man who felt powerless
I appreciate how this manhwa allowed Abel to have a really strong personality shown while he was in his og body instead of killing him within the first two chapters. plus, we see the main couple interact and their relationship grow, without it being revealed in flashbacks. these small changes are like a breath of fresh air in the reincarnation trope imo
