First Karen from Resetting Lady and now her!!! I'm loving the "MC goes insane and does whatever" genre. Hopefully more stories pick this up!
Some of you are being way too harsh on the MC. She's legit trying the hardest she can. This is a horror story about the Mary Sue trope gone wrong. If you all would just stop looking for the characters to be flawless fearless genius IQ (or to be realer, YOUR self insert), you'd enjoy the story a lot more.
some of yall are truly mad because the MC is doing stuff you wouldnt do. But thats not the point and its an overall bad way to intake stories. Don't base a character or the quality of the story based on if they do 'the right thing' or not. Some stories are meant to have big mistakes occur. If we just had books where the MC was just constantly winning then what's even the point? If this MC was 'smart' and did everything the 'right way' then the story wouldn't progress. Its supposed to be like this and for that it's written quite well.
yea i agree with you, MC is clearly doing the best she can think of and if she were a “perfect and smart” MC, the story would get boring real quick.
unfortunately this manwha isn’t my cup of tea so i’ll be dropping it for now (maybe i’ll reconsider in the future)
TRUUUE! I think she’s the most realistic though if I were her I’d probably just be too scared to do anything at all.
YESSS! i love pathetic mcs! because they feel human than those protagonists who can remember a entire novel/game, incredibly smart and capable of creating something that didn't exist in their new world, and charming others by being dumb. Which she tried, but you can see it didn't go well at ALL, just like it would go in real life (who likes dumb girls?)
MEEE! And you’re so right. Like come one now I mean I like MC’s like that but it’s good I have different types and honestly this one is say is definitely the most realistic one I’ve seen and she’s really brave and strong to try even though she fails a lot ToT
Exactly!! I read so many OIs, if I was plopped into one I'd have a hard time remembering anything, maybe who's a villain or the names of the main characters, but nothing more.
The way that I would mix stories together in my memory LMAO
Just saw my comment and I’m surprised you understand what I said *skull emoji* Also yes! Don’t remember their names either and etc etc like I remember something specific but there are also blurry pieces in the middle. Just thinking about it stresses me out AHHH
Since so many are asking:
Yes, Karen is actually in a death loop, and yes her mother and the ancestors before her did as well. Her bloodline was cursed. The death loop only stops when they find their true love, and it passes on to the next generation. The curse in specific is that the women of Karen's bloodline must experience a total of 10,000 deaths and then the curse will vanish.
Karen's mother's true love is not her husband, but Karen
is donna really dead? pls spoil ╥﹏╥
I didn't understand. Why the curse stops: 10.000 deaths, true love or having a kid?
ig true love can be any type of love? like true love can't only mean the romantic type but familial type as well? imo that's why Karen's mother stopped her loop because she loved Karen truly?
So karen's mom survives her loop because the love she found was from her daughter. If she had died 10.000 deaths, does she stops the curse for everyone?
she'd go absolutely crazy before that happens but basing on op's spoilers her bloodline needs to suffer 10,000 deaths but she does die 10,000 times, then she'd be able to stop the loop
*if she dies
The curse is that the women of Karen's bloodline will find themselves in a death loop. That woman's loop only stops when they find their true love, and the curse is passed on to the next generation. The curse will END (meaning no passing on to the next generation, no more loops) when ALL of the women's deaths add up to 10,000.
So for example, lets say the curse starts with Karen's great grandmother (not saying thats true, the curse has been going on for generations):
She dies 400 times until she finds her true love . Now its passed on to Karens grandmother and the amount of deaths left is 9,600.
Karen's grandmother dies 600 times, found true love, now its passed on to Karens mother and the deaths left are 9,000.
Karen's mother dies 2,000 times, finds her true love, now its Karen's turn. Deaths left are 7,000.
If Karen finds her true love, her death loop will end and she passes it on. BUT if Karen manages to die those remaining 7,000 deaths the curse will go away and no one else will experience the loop anymore.
and yes. Donna did die for real. Everyone who Karen killed died her father just covered it up.
Also their 'true love' is not limited to romantic love. For Karen's mom, Karen was her true love. Maybe for one of Karen's ancestors their true love could be their pet or something lol.
damn, but did she not loved blonde dude from the first life?
Maybe that was her plan like, she didn't know if it was true love and through if she had a child she could love her for real
that's just sad
Just think, like the MC isn't in her right mind after too many deaths, they can't have the mind to search for love, it's just not important when you are always killed and lived 100 years, what a nightmare. Now that I think about it, makes sense she is just having fun with a severed hand
asking a severed a hand if it's Donna is peak insanity fr
Im not sure of which dude you're talking about. If its Karen and Raymond, their love wasnt genuine. Both of them hid a lot of things about themselves and it was a very surface level love to begin with. Raymond is her true love though, they just have to go through a lot.
man, that's really sad ╥﹏╥
So I just wanted to jump in here to say that it's pretty much implied that the only true way to stop the death loop is to pass it on, and the whole "true love" thing isn't really the way it works, or more like it's that for all of them, they didn't experience true love until they had a kid.
Spoiler:
Dulan knows this and purposely killed the FL the one time she was pregnant because he just wants her to keep suffering. This however made it so that the ML started remembering his past lives as well, it just takes a minute for it to happen, each time being sooner than the last.
Would it be Dulan wanting her to suffer or him wanting to continue living forever? I remember there being something of him seeing the loop as an act of god or some weird shit.
Wow that's some maxed out shit does that mean she dies in this life too......... I hope so
I think the one 'good' thing about this story is that even though the ex husband is the ML, it takes them 8 years to get remarried, and its not a perfect "omg the past never happened!!" relationship either.
I still don’t want them together
(╯°Д °)╯╧╧
I'm sorry but droving her to s word and they ended up getting married once again leaves a bad aftertaste for me
Ikrrrr
Not satisfied at aaall
Trust I dont want this ending either but my only solace is that he will never get that unconditional full trust love that he got from her in the beginning ever again.
There's only two manhwas where I've seen the MC actually go back to their original world. I'm so happy they were able to in both. God this was such a good story. Wish they had elaborated a bit more on Eris' mother
Oh kind soul, please tell me the other manhwa title
please
May you share your blessing with us
The manhwa is called As You Wish Prince
Aaaaa thank you so much for the reply! God bless yaaaa
Thank you for this blessing that you bestowed upon us
Ohh, I remembered reading his before, I never knew it was completed already!
Mister doing all this and trying to be a dom when that wasn't the agreed upon relationship is majorly scummy. These are the kinds of people that get kicked out of BDSM communities.
this the type of shit that makes me mad. the king didnt even try to warm him up or anything. like stop being a black flag for a minute so you can actually get him to like you in that way. As soon as the hyung got to the castle he was on some insane shit. Also just to note, I'm not saying he warm him up now. He's past the point of return.
