I think this is like the most realistic story of falling in love with a demon. I like when the author doesn’t sugarcoat how fucking horrible and despicable he is and js straight up says the horrible crimes this demon has committed bcs he’s literally a demon. I actually rlly like the characters and the way they’re written especially our girl who is firm with her beliefs and like actually is able to continuously remind herself that he's js a demon. Lowkey if it was me id have already given in to the manipulation. The story is tragic for her and idk maybe for him kinda?? Tbh her treating him badly is all his fault so whatever, but I rlly do feel bad for her and her circumstances and im glad the author doesn’t fail to remind us shes a victim and shit even as she is slowly falling for the demon. For how taboo this topic is, the author sort of deals with it well.
Holy shit u have no idea how shocked I was when Marin didnt know Seul and Casar met bcs I tht it was part of her plan. Their love for eo genuinely transcended time and Marin plans and thats insane to me considering how meticulous she is. As much as I hate the empress and Marin for literally what they did, I can’t fault either of them bcs it truly seemed they actually cared and loved eo alot even when they were at death and Marin literally destroyed everything the empress built, it seemed all she wanted in the end was Marin back. Same cld be said with Marin js hating how much she enabled the empress to get to that point. There cld be a whole doomed yuri on js them both abt how the empress was a horrible person and Marin was her enabler, like truly in a sickening way they parallel our main couple with their accidental meeting from the mistake of a genius and twisted fate afterwards.
Aside from that this story was so good and absolutely perfectly executed. I think to me the romance was the most perfect bcs Casars absolute devotion to our girl even after she tried so hard to get him to be happy for himself, god it was js perfect. And also her gaining hope and quite literally NOT GOING EVIL all bcs of his BODY WARMTH?? Little random at first until they explained it was the hope of her feeling loved and then it made sense. This story is so tragic and rlly well executed the immortality and time travel elements like perfectly. I also love the underlying messages it teaches you and god this story was js an insane rollercoaster. Characters are all used so well and explained in the best ways possible and god this story for how short it is made such good use of it’s world building and vast number of powers and characters without being too complex. Bcs at the end it overall rlly js started from two besties fucking it up too hard fr.
Take me back to a time when I didn’t read this and let me re experience it all over again. Genuinely cried so hard when Casar realized she remembered him and their past. Their devotion to help eo be happy is amazing and Im so happy they get to be tgt with Daeun my baby.
Oh my god i cannot express how this is the most PERECT FUCKING LOVE STORY EVER!!! Omg i cant they are so perfect for one another and this truly cldv ended up so tragic but it didn't and im so happy but its just perfect. A love so strong for each other that one wants to kill and the other is willing to be killed. I am not lying when I say the shit Dosung was saying had me DOWN BAD. Hes so insanely in love with her and wanting to kill and harm her like god that kinda love is so insane. Its like having cuteness aggression max 100. Whats even cuter is when he said tht although quite literally his biology wanted him to genuinely kill her his love for her outweighed that. Like thats so insane. Dont even get me started on my girl bcs shes so loving and perfect i never once doubted she wld run away from him. The devotion and love she has for him is insane while also still being perfectly badass and strong in her own ways. Like if my man told me he wanted to kill me over and over again id be shitting my pants and my girl was like “he js confessed fr”. Shes the truest non chalant lover out there I admire her and aspire to reach that typa devotion. This story in general rlly fleshed out the different archetypes and characters pf their world and I love how everyone was well described and perfectly made and still understandable to the “type” they were assigned. I esp love how they trick us into thinking maybe Lee liked Dosung but she stays pure to her type as a perfect example of a destroy. Really this story is my perfect cup of tea that balances out a obsessive love story without making the female lead super weak or making the guy an crazy abusive asshole. Bcs this story rlly treaded the line with that and show us how easily it cldv turned into that but that's js not how the character ls
are and its perfect. I am going to read this over and over until I die. Im quite literally a shut for this story.
I’ve never rlly liked the women dominating trope bcs idk it was js never my thing but this single-handedly changed me as a person and my sexual preferences will now never be the same ever again, her js dominating him in this way was js so different from what i usually saw and its js so perfect and well done. Also my screen is white.
This story has changed me for good and I will never be the same omg. Sunshine has raised the standards so unbelievably high and I fear I’ll look for him in every man. The way they loved ei in every play through is insane and his absolute dedication to atone for his mistakes and let her be back to her world, and then her absolute dedication to be with him no matter what. He trued his literal best to make her hate him and deep down she never did and always fell in love that is INSANE. I got literally chills when sanjae realized they were in a loop when he saw the 102 messages. Also I love that every character was wrapped up perfectly, esp sanjae and youngjung.
To be honest the ending was amazingly done like jt was perfect because although I truly did want to see more of their life and romance, I think it’s beautiful that we didn’t. Immediately I realized that it made sense bcs when we find out what the emperor was planning all along and when he was abt to die he said “Our memories will be mine alone”, it made so much sense that their actual romance together at the and is theirs alone and we won’t be allowed in to take a glimpse at it. I also love the idea that the game world ended up being a world itself that also made a new one, meaning there was truly no answer to the question of whether the “reality” they lived in was reality, so long as their hearts were real then it was real.
Sunshine truly like his name shines because having that sort of dedication and passion and absolute ability to throw away everything so your loved one can be free and happy is js so perfect of him and like he’s literally the best male lead ever. He’s such a complex character that even when acting as if he hated our girl we cld easily tell the turmoil he was going through doing that but still not giving in js so he can give her the ending he thought she deserved. He’s so dedicated to making sure she ends up happy, he happily let the world burn for it.
