And here I thought taking down the system and kicking the bro off his throne would at least take another dozen chapters or so

somnia created a topic of The Hounds of Sisyphus

Wdym how will the author fix this? It's literally gonna be his character arc to try and learn the basic concepts of what makes up humanity. And based on how loosely hinged MC is himself I'm guessing it's gonna be a bumpy ride. As I've said from the very beginning of the story nutcase x nutcase. The ship has sailed the twink was railed.

So his problem with Abel is that he doesn't want the king to get sidetracked? And/or to just get rid of the one true twink before the council can exploit that weakness, again.
Maybe I'm too much of a beta for this but can't relate, can't understand lmao. Praise Ashler for looking right through that. I don't need Karas when I got Ashler as the king of my heart.

Nah the whole family feud bs on ML's side feels so unresolved, you can't tell me that's not main story material?

I saw the title and immidiatly knew what was waiting for me in the comment section, and so did you

somnia created a topic of I Can See Your Stats!

I'm slowly growing more and more convinced that either the artist just wanted to draw their fav scenes while glossing over anything else from the novel, or a lot of content was axed on purpose to get people to go read the novel. Which works since I swear like almost everyone who read up until this point started reading the novel or is searching for links-

I am imagining legions of women, generations across various cultures and nationalities, looking down upon this man child with utter disappointment in their lightless eyes. It makes me feel better.

I'm guessing they're trying to tie it all up neatly(subjective) in 100 chapters. And I'll be honest, idc. I was here to look at pretty pictures and that's all I got out of that. I didn't even bother reading what Cayena was yapping about with these kids or her date with her whipped boyfriend.
But like him or hate him Rezef was one of the main people that kept the story interesting, for me anyway. Unlike anyone else but Cayena he had dimension and was driving the story forward if not forcing it to. I liked how he was portrayed as a product of his environment instead of the usual dumb toddler shoujo nonsense where kids come crawling out of the birth canal ready to assault the main character for existing and never change throughout on average two whole decades.

somnia created a topic of Doku wo Kurawaba Sara Made

Sure he was always a cruel bastard, always will be from the looks of it, but before he let the dogs out so to say, there was still benefit of the doubt, a degree of seperation the audience had to the evil bs he was up to.
Showing us how these kids get their own 4D beastality experience is where that seperation is torn down. No amount of rizz could make Andrim "better", or more like overshadow that straight up unhinged behaviour. Unlike many psychological/horror/thriller MLs out there he doesn't have any big trauma or goal to try and justify that shit either, so it's hitting most readers like a freight train.

On the other hand perhaps that was intentional of the author. Like a "this is what you wished for" kinda deal. Something, something, what you can't fix WILL get worse, some villains aren't worth the sympathy, don't be rizzed into ignorance; take your pick.

somnia created a topic of Palace of the Omega

I understand being weirded out that a grown man got married to a kid, but throwing pedophilia around like its a football is such brain rot behaviour.
While our homeboy was a kid his hot omega husband was weirded out, and they got friendly with each other bc wtf else would you do if you were forced to marry a kid? Like they barely touch each other and hang out respectfully. The romance comes way later when he's grown.
It's a thing to begin with to create drama, to have a good reason why the throne was seized, bc it wasn't an uncommon thing throughout history aswell.

Sometimes the answer isn't the worst thing you can imagine, and themes you call problematic can still have a compelling story surrounding it.

fire cat vs ice dog, how riveting.. I totally wonder what their relationship dynamic will be

Im once again realizing how jaded by the genre I've become because the moment FL is all like "but what about those soldiers that deserve respect", portrayed in this very holier-than-thou, I-am-the-perfectly-competent-yet-naive-Mary-Sue vibe, I just cringe.
My soul retracts back into the abyss and I feel the potent need to teach FL a personality through some competent bullying.
If this type of fl had a color I'd pick beige bc the shit she's on is so basic. Does she get any more zest at all?

Huimen might've been delulu or whatever, but he's been carrying this man's ass in this lifetime

somnia shared experience about question
The Crown Prince seemed like my perfect other half. He taught me everything about this new world. We shared so much in common, and more. It turned out he too is a reincarnator, and there is a whole collective of us here in the Empire. Using our surperior knowledge most of us became rich and influental. Balmheim, our home realm, was a technologicall......

I don't know what else BJ is supposed to stand for, so you can imagine what I'm thinking about reading this title

somnia created a topic of Moral-less Scandal

Starting of strong. But so do many other manhwas that just end up breaking my heart so I WAIT.

No, I'm not feeling the bs they're on. Maybe I'd be for it if they ever showed the Emperor being genuinely in love with the Empress- and like fr him trying to defend her and worry, but it's been bare bones nothing for 80% of the story, so their reconciliation feels like a last minute "nvm, happy end for them ig". Especially after the Empress clearly voiced wanting to move on. They don't even show them warming up to each other again, just the Empress being touched that he defended her for once and said sorry.

Fr reminds me of my bestie who crawls back to her toxic ex every time he shows up at the front door with flowers.

somnia created a topic of Antidote (Harusari)

I just started reading but HOMIE I NEED TO VENT. About Lister specifically because he's reviving my potent HATRED for tsundere coded manchildren who skip that point in puberty where they realize that bullying your crush is potent virgin behaviour. This man clearly wasn't beaten up enough bc he's got THAT type of audacity, the one which makes you want to spit on him and his grave.
A grave which I pray is built soon, and put atop of this idiot's gratefully dead body to put MC. OUT. OF. THIS. MISERY.
What is wrong with this mofo that he doesn't realize that he's spitting on a decade long friendship AND actively making his crush hate his fucking guts?

Bitch, every time he gives MC this filthy, slimey, yucky, totally dis-gus-ting look I have to withstand ancient, primal instincts to not start punching my screen. I'm puking his filthy ass vibes up I CANNOT. If I at any point was able to choose what fictional character will be shot DEAD on the spot, this poop troop baby man is one of my top 5 picks, DO NOT underestimate my disgust people.

This kind of "Hihi, I like you but I first need to make you suffer bc I need to vent my frustration over being rejected!!!"-spiel is never, will never be cute nor charming. It is the ultimate antiphasis to hot man behaviour and EVERY TIME it triggers this genetic memory of running towards the nearest bug swatter to be rid of this pest.

somnia created a topic of Her Merry Obsession

I have no standards for this genre, so the rape itself is whatever for me, but I still find it to be a cheap build-up. Like where is the drama? The guy literally just dragged her into a dungeon to molest her, there were so many other options to make homie loose his pants in frustration that didn't involve straight up sa, but it somehow had to be a sex dungeon scenario. He's supposed to be this super professional top of the line agent but thinks THIS is a good strategy to torture his not-wife out of militia camp. MEH.
