I like that they kinda tried a relationship, recognized it wasn't going to work, and also recognized they liked the relationship they had. Yay for healthy exploration and self reflection!
The uke AND the new guy suck ass man. New guy shouldn't be chasing someone he knows is in a committed romantic relationship. Uke needs to set HARD boundaries.
Bro clearly doesnt have that much of an issue with two-timing since he's done it before eith women. When new guy was like "hypothetically I'm into this guy who's already dating someone and hes just not giving me the time of day", the uke just goes "no wtf he's brushing you of??" Instead of "maybe dont hit on someone you know is dating already."
Bro thus guy sucks and this drama is so contrived and irritating.
Why did the top say this????? What an out of pocket line. Its like the author wanted to write an unhinged, toxic seme but only knows how to write vampires
The way this has been uploaded is wildly confusing
This is totally just my opinion but Im curious if anyone feels similarly or if I'm way off base. I was kinda bored by the fact that the uke broke so quickly and then just stayed that way for until the end.
I though this would grapple more with "the meaning of life". Like what drives a human to keep loving despite having such short lives vs an immortal vampire. And like... it kinda does, but it feels very... shallow.
The entire second half is just characters meandering through locations, repeating the exact same thoughts in a very Poison for Kuzco maner that never let's us delve into their motivations much deeper.
If you cut straight from ch 3 to ch 6, you dont lose any information. This feels like a lot of nothing dressed up in an expensive gothic horror costume and nothing else.
Idk. I was just... expecting something.
I waited until winter to read this for the aesthetic~
Worth it.
BUT actually kinda not. Furuya's works always have this atmosphere to them and I usually love them, but this one just didnt go deep enough into the many different psyches of its characters.
When the teacher asked Itsuni if he had hobbies, I was expecting that to TRIGGER a deeper ecploration of Itsuki's character. Theres a specific kind of angst you can get out of a character who is naturally talented at everything but has no interest in anything and that driving a wedge between him and everyone around him. The poor kid stops doing ANYTHING out of fear of triggering other peoples insecurities. That's heavy. I want to see an exploration of that.
The ending is unsatisfying because it's trying to pay off on a plot thread that was never adequately set up--Yuusei's writing. Why did he stop? Why did he start again? Did any of that have to do with his feelings for Itsuki. I thought we were going to get an exploration of that too, but if just didnt go anywhere.
This story really dragged on of my personal insecurities into the open and then didn't interrogate it at all, just brought it up in passing and then went to play hacky sack at a park by itself. It had nothing Monday about the interesting threads of its characters, rendering them boring and without a real resolution.
really had Thoughts about this one i guess
Yall I was so hype for the more morally ambiguous and complex scenario that was set up in chapter 1... The reveal that mr ghost boi actually just liked MC the whole time and also never planned to try and kill his own best friend is less interesting to me.
And then of course there's Deus Ex My Friend Is Actually Just an Angel and Has Been This Whole Time Because We Need to Retroactively Explain Why the Plot Happened in a Quick and Simple Way Instead of Following Through w
With the Higher Stakes Set Up At the Beginning Because Reasons IDK So Things Will Probably Work Out Dont Even Worry About It.
It's not a plot device if I just turn one of my existing characters into a magical solution right?
I'm not the only one annoyed by the lack of build up right?
I laughed so hard on the way you wrote it. I feel you, it's such a random nonsense no brain explanation
I mentioned this a few months back and a lot of people told me how I could think there's plot holes when everything is so clearly explain in the plot. Make me question my reading skills for a sec lmao
