r&c wouldve been an amazing psychological story if it focused on caesar's mental illness related to his abusive and obsessive behaviour instead of constantly bringing it up just bc "he was never taught emotions!! uwu" like i feel like he couldve been such a good portrayal of dark mental illness cause a lot of mh media make the violently mentally ill character magically recover and have no symptoms again just bc they fell in love but even though caesar fell in love he still has triggers that pull him back to his extremely toxic behaviour and im so pissed its just written off as typical asshole seme red flag behaviour (by both the author and the fanbase)..this couldve been so much deeper and interesting if we got an insight on caesars mental illness and his past and how those shaped him as the toxic person he is AND I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL

We did get insight on Caeser's past and how his upbringing caused him to develop the mentality that he has. There was a flashback about it and it's brought up throughout the story as Leewon realizes why Caeser is so twisted.
In the recent chapters Leewon is reminded again. "Did no one ever teach you you're not supposed to-" And that's an understatement because Caeser's life from childhood - adulthood was abnormal and brutal, like being in the hunger games. Those reasons don't justify Caeser's abuse to Leewon but the insight is there. But what would you have the author do differently in the way Caeser's mental state is represented?

its mainly me nitpicking cause this is still one of my favorite manhwas, but i feel like it couldve also been great if its genre was psychological! im glad we do get to see more about caesar and learn how his mind works and that just makes me really curious as to what exactly he has, like a specific mental illness or more specific moments in his childhood and im super curious about his younger years like as a teenager, and id love to dive deeper into that. but i feel like if we were to do so then id rather it be as a side story or an extra rather than be added to the main story cause despite the dark themes, it still has a relatively 'comedic' vibe hence it couldve been a good psychological story if it wasnt what it is right now

i wish this entire series gets redone someday (and someone actually makes background research on the artist) cause i feel like this plot is so good and i wanna read the novel but the whole drama with the original artist and the new art made ratings go down so much and bc of all the confusion i still see lots of ppl thinking the author is the pedo when its literally the first artist. ughhh i feel so bad for the author....their work deserves so much better
my favorite thing about this manhwa is how sasya has pretty severe mental illness and he stays mentally ill even after the happy things and getting back with karel. a happy ending and relationship doesnt "fix" his mental illness like in most media depicting this kind of stuff. he still struggles with delusions and manic episodes and we get to see how to couple handle those because theyve just become a part of sasya. i really hope the side stories dont end with him magically cured.
im so so tired of romance = solution to everything and its such a breath of fresh air that its handled so well here (●'◡'●)ノ
i wish i could bookmark this comment i so agree with you, and i also can’t help but notice how emotionally intelligent karel is. you can tell he has the patience for sasya because of how much he loves him!!
