you know i just dont understand why make alea a girl when in fact its just so good for the character to stick being a guy. pushing romance authornim? just drop it please . uuuuggghhhh!!!!
She was a girl to begin with, so questioning it is pointless. It’s not like the author created a boy a changed their mind halfway through; it was clear she was a girl from the beginning. The fact is she’s choosing to be a guy for a specific reason, which clearly has something to do with the fact that she’s staying away from the church. And it’s not about “pushing romance” either. The story has always been about Helmut learning to be a normal kid. Romance is part of life.
"Romace is part of life" shoot did I miss a chapter in my life? Because I got none ;-;
damn. raise up raise up. im raising my hand up. (⊙…⊙ )
Completely agree, idk why some people cant accept that
hayst! i was really hoping for some brotherhood type of relationship where they fought and understand eachother, you know the companionship and the relationship buildup like batman and robin especially hemlut is on the swordmaster side while alea is a magician. its just a click from the start, then sudenly hes a girl? lmao i was shocked for a while, honestly thinking bowt what the author is up to. then at the end of the days its just, hashtag “romance is part of life” as well said above lmao hahahaha
Romance is a part of life but atleast with this the story isnt ruined or strayed. I personally love a bit of romance in ever fantasy but its not the same for everybody. As long as the story is still good I'm happy, I rather there be a 1 girl romance than them ending up with a harem at the end which completely destroys stories.
you guys all know that gay people exist right
And we all know that this isn’t yaoi
it doesn’t need to be yaoi to include a gay couple lol
You’ve read action packed webtoons with a main gay couple that wasn’t labeled yaoi? Or even where the side characters were a gay couple?
wait guys. stop for a while. why are we discussing yaoi and being gay here? we’re just lamenting on the lost brotherhood/partners in crime trope and the gender change to introduce romance if im not mistaken.
I think @thisislele’s point was that it’s not because Alea turns out to be a girl that she and Helmut couldn’t have been gay for each other if she’d been a boy instead.
but being close doesnt mean being gay though. i mean im into brtherhood without lust for this story. yaoi is yaoi, shounen ai is shounen ai. but this one is not.
the point is that the only reason people are speculating about romance is bc alea is a girl. and they immediately jump to brotherhood if she was a boy. it’s honestly a joke. the way alea is written would still imply potential romance if she was a boy. ignoring that is stupid. people are gay. they can be gay without it being yaoi or shounen ai. this isn’t a romance it’s action. the genre doesn’t change just bc the mc is gay.
Yes but the way webtoons and mangas are set up is so you know whether what you’re about to read has BL in it or not. I’ve never seen a non-BL where lead characters turn out to be gay for each other. Alea is written this way BECAUSE she is a girl. If she was one of those boys who look like girls, they’d make a comedy out of it. So common sense has nothing to do with the readers’ expectations. That’s just the setup for these types of stories.
honestly speaking i never thought that alea was a girl in the first place, thats why i was really disappointed during the gender revelation part which oviously depicts the development of romance. look at her blushing. gosh! i was taken a back while reading it. secondly, i was expecting no romance trope to begin with regarless if its between alea as a girl or alea as a guy that is. coz this is adventure/action genre guys. no romance on the heads up. you cant blame me with this one. and lastly, just to note, helmut doesnt even know the difference between genders. so why introduce romance? lols!
yeah bc action stories like this are inherently homophobic. romance is only possible with alea bc she’s a girl and if she was a boy it would just be for laughs. you shouldn’t know whether it has ‘bl’ in it or not just from the set up just like you don’t know whether it has romance at all or not. that’s so fucking stupid. “common sense” shouldn’t be ignoring any possibility of gay people.
I’m just gonna say this: there are plenty of action packed BLs. Like a lot. I’m not sure I understand why this is an argument you feel so strongly about. Things are categorized because people have preferences in the things they like to read and in the things they like to create. It makes sense for people who only come here to read action, to whine about there being romance. It makes sense for someone to argue that the romance is important for Helmut to just grow like a proper human being. It makes sense for no one to expect them to be gay when mangas and webtoons have always been categorized so you can read exactly what you’re looking for at any given time. They’re not set up like books, movies or tv shows where anything can happen regardless of the main genre. And even then, when your leads are gay, you can know this beforehand by watching the trailer or reading the book summary. I feel like you’re making this a bigger issue than it needs to be.
I guess that’s the difference between us lol. I expected her to be a girl from the moment she was introduced and Helmut senses that there was something off about her, like she was coating her appearance with something
lol no. there is a difference between bl with action and action with a gay main character. what dont you get about the fact that it is action focused and not romance focused, even if there is any, means it not yaoi or bl or shounen ai. take tomb raider king for example, i’m not sure if you read it (it’s very good) there is romance in it but it’s so minimal you would never label it as romance. the same way that if the love interest was a man it would not and should not be labeled romance let alone bl. i dont know anything about your identity and dont want to assume but if you aren’t gay it might be hard to understand. this is basic levels of representation.
I get what your point is and it’s true on the romance aspect, but you brought this point as though we shouldn’t assume there wouldn’t be romance if Alea was a boy. My point was only to point out why it makes sense no one would expect for Alea to be Helmut’s love interest if she was a man because these stories are categorized specifically so we get to choose what we feel like reading. So yes, it would have to be tagged BL for us to expect that.
it wouldnt but ok bud
this is so good i laugh and laugh but i totally cried so much when pyung died. i was waiting for him to be the mc’s deciple at last and for him to learn the fist technique made by the sword god. gosh my tears huhuhuhu
ukea omega evolution be like: from biting omega to super lewd onega ahahahahaha
honestly jk is so toxic but i think we sont kbow know much about why hes like that. we just know how cruel he is to dan and how obsesd he is in winning and being a champion. i think season 2 will focus more about jks char dev and flashbacks. hoping its jks pov this time around. or both for us to understand them more. (▰˘◡˘▰)
i totally agree with investments with dispointment when youre so into an action manhua then suddenly the author got insane and adds romance. you feel me guys? though i know most of the times this is only due to the pulishing team or the higher ups asking for something not needed (〜￣△￣)〜
at first i was just scanning stories to read and i saw this one uploaded by bloomingdale. so i just got intrsted coz i know this uploader always upload good stories. then i read it in one go and i liked it a lot. you know its just a nice piece of abo where the seme is just adorable and sweet and fluffy not the typical abo seme. you know ive got a feeling hes going to be like dojin in love is an illusion, the married dojin or like gio of hold me tight. just plainly rooting for his lover. inlive and posessive hahahaha i want one too waaaaah
i just want to know, did the girl eorin stick till the end?
