I like that Sirone wasn't actually... alone his entire childhood. We didn't see much of it, but he apparently had some really good friends that still care about him after years of being apart.
Can we just acknowledge how adorable they are, too? Like, all his friends: the villagers, Rian and his sister, kinda Amy now though the tsundere is not my preference— but ESPECIALLY Iruki and Nade in c.65!! Iruki and his irritation at having been bested by a Sirone who's only been learning officially for less than a year, and Nade with his cheezy, cringey "Precious little mass!" talk. Adorable.
I'm glad he took a leap of faith and finally told someone. For someone as honest as Sirone, he wouldn't have felt comfortable calling himself their friend had he continued to keep it a secret. All over, a fantastic feel good chapter (until the end, obviously. Can't have a season end without angst!)
I love that this takes a more scientific approach to magic— and actually uses real world science and theorems to explain it pretty thoroughly! It's refreshing to see a magic world still operate as such but can also be explained using a logical system, instead of falling back on "it's magic, so it just works because because."
I'm also already hoping that Kanis and Arin somehow, eventually, become friends with our sweetie pie. I'm looking forward to a showdown between light and shadow magic, but I also just feel pretty f*ing bad for Kanis and want him to have a good influence.
I also want to see Riaaaaan!!!! I'm curious how his own progress is going, and want to see their reunion, but it's been less than a year since he and Sirone parted ways so I guess it'll be a while still.
Unexpectedly, I love this more and more
Did anyone know that there's a live adaptation for this?? I was scrolling through a streaming app and came across it.
Are you sure, coz i can't find it.
Omg what the hell?! I wanna watch it
I love how all of us collectively agree that she probably likes Kayden but doesn't know how to express it (because all these awakener babies don't know anything besides violence), and that she's feeling murderous because she was "stood up" on their *coughDATEcough* fight.
Honey, just join the Jiwoo and Kayden Love fanclubs please. There's a waiting list, but we're all pretty welcoming to badass hard-core female characters. We love that shiz here!
On a side note: I kinda want to slap Jiwoo, as much as I adore him. Who just stands in awe of red mist only in his vicinity (that does NOT exist) when he was almost killed by some random bastard an hour ago???
Agree, i was immediately like-
"Jiwo you dumbass, red mist that clearly awakener's power and you just stood there and admire?!"
I know everyone is asking, but does anyone have an answer as to why the artist changed for season 2??
It isn't...bad, but when held in comparison to the original art, it seems ugly and incompatible with the characters. It feels generic.
We ultimately have no option other than to either suck it up or drop the work, but I was curious if there was a legitimate reason for why it's so different?
Also! I read on reddit that apparently the licensing is switching hands and there's some issues with agreements between the new owners and the author, so this might actually be canceled after the 2nd season, but couldn't find any reports to back that info up. Is this true?
His love and devotion for her is... admirable in a way, but over all I think we can admit that he's a bit controlling and even a tad bit emotionally manipulative.
She wants nothing more than to see her mother, someone she was ripped away from for years and desperately misses, and seeing her again would give them both some level of peace of mind.... But he's telling her no because he's afraid of losing her love to the Prince? He really doesn't have faith in her love for him. And who is he to tell her no??? She's an adult who can make her own decisions, and you'd think that if he really cared for her that he'd not take away her autonomy like so many others have.
He has enough sense and self-awareness to acknowledge she's in a bad spot mentally and emotionally considering everything she's been through, but he's still selfish enough to completely disregard that because he doesn't want to let her go or fully acknowledge that he has a hand in her current state.
It's so weird. By basically forbidding her from going to Gaior, he proves that he doesn't have enough faith in their love to persist through a little rivalry (which she's already stated to have no romantic interest in)— but he DOES have enough faith to use it against her when it suits him, since he knows she won't do anything to make him unhappy.
You said the best! I get that female leads, always are going to be the most forgiving and characters in general are going to be like heal and forgive rather than be vengeful and unforgiving. everyone made decisions for Camila without actually consulting her and think of her as her own person. I understand the times, but also they made her to live as a man, treat her as a man and let her make her own decisions. The fact that Camila is to do with her anger is proof enough that everybody has been emotionally manipulating her.
Like, he was just tossed around like a ragdoll, and he has the *_audacity_* to say he'll just kill Pluton and then Kayden after...
Bruh, no your limits!!
Though I suppose it doesn't matter now, since you're hopefully dead ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
In chapter 279 page 6, there's a cursed image of Ryō Kurokiba with misshapen boobs and no arms.... Although, in actuality, it's his shoulder. I startled myself
Is it just me, or did Lee Subin get prettier? Maybe it's just her stellar personality shining through more clearly, but it's funny how Jisuk calls her ugly when she's definitely not... They're totally going to date at some point, aren't they?
ahh i dont think so because isnt jisuk talking to lia? as mentioned on the earlier chapters hmmm
oh was he? I guess I forgot or missed that part... Buuuut, just because he's interested in Lia now doesn't mean he won't take notice of Subin later. Though it's also perfectly fine if they just remain friends too.
idk, somehow i got the feeling subin would end up with wooin lmao. they got the same energy like Sai and Ino from naruto
ohh, true! Both are ships I never really considered but they do seem to just work. That Sai x Ino ship really caught me off guard lol.
Well, I guess I'm happy so long as these babies just stick together forever.
Their close friendship is something I adore and personally long for, so romanticizing it just feels like the best way to ensure some of them stay together, but it isn't necessary. Even if they part ways, I'm sure their friendships are strong enough to persist, and that's a natural part of growing up
I do wish the village would have made a decision to raise awareness about the Woolks.
Their society has been mentioned to be a Kingdom, and any royalty or protective services should be made aware that such dangerous creatures are encroaching on their territory, unprovoked and in masses. Even if the royals didn't care, if they were half intelligent they would know that it's only a matter of time before they HAVE to care.
I feel like it was kind of brushed off since Sirone intimidated them into leaving (if only temporarily), but it's an issue where the cause should definitely be looked into.
