Poor Ines. I can never truly fathom the amount of horror she went through at his hands and in her attempts to escape her previous life fate. That bastard needs to stay in a deep dark hole where he can hurt no one again.
Smartest bottom alive: "This guy is treating me like a manwhore, so lemme just go ahead and make sure he KNOWS I am one."
I don't know what's going on, man. So much of this world's lore and rules are info dumped, none of it is gonna stick that well between weekly updates especially the longer this comic goes on for. Such an easy writing crime to rectify as this is A VISUAL MEDIUM. sigh.
I just want to vent about a pet peeve of mine I've grown to have over the years of reading Shoujo romance. I am soooo bored of the "oh he's so cool, but I'm so boring" trope in these stories. There's so many interesting and nuanced takes that have been done even in just the past decade that whenever I come across this same old trope that was already tired out by the Y2K I can't even feel anything but disdain. The characters already feel like the defaults in a Shoujo romance character builder, down to hair color and all, that more of this same old-same old is tiring. I'll probably drop it at this point.
Not saying that anyone that likes it is wrong or has boring taste; I've just seen it too many times personally and I'm not the same girl I was when I first got into Shoujo manga, so goes to reason my taste evolved past these trodden paths.
Anyways I'm just yapping, tldr is I'm DNFing.
Is it me or does this latest chapter look like the budget ran out?
Honestly Elena annoys me. The way she blushes and gets flustered at every action of Vicente's and stops the damn plot every few panels to wonder if it's sincere --you know you ASKED him to pretend, right? I wouldn't mind her being confused about it if it didn't interfere with the pacing and we weren't let into her head every time it happened.
This damn fictional character has a grip on my heartstrings. Poor boys.
And this is why he hates Alphas bro. Smh. Y
