The artsyle is great idk who said it’s ugly, but as an artist, the way they are drawn captures the emotion despite the “simple” style. I do wish there were more chapters on the second couple tho! Tsubaki was just starting to express himself more and i wanted to see them explore how their relationship will develop now that Azuma’s there. I also really love the cigarette analogy. Didn’t know the was a prequel for the first couple so imma read that next
Such a wonderful family. So full of love. I think my heart exploded. I was feeling down from an animated gl movie I watched, so this really made me feel better
After rereading a few chapters, only now I realized that the mc was basically r****. And the reason I had no memory of it as a teen was bc of how the aftermath was romanticized. You’d think that it’s still ‘ok’ since they’re living a cute and happy ending, and that’s where it gets more problematic. Is when ppl start to be r*** apologists and defend the manwha, like bro you can still consume and even appreciate parts of the story *while* still acknowledging the fact that an assault happened
Yep really problematic tho I'm not gonna use my brain and I will read this again for the sake of nostalgic but dw, this ain't my fav.
I also planned to re-read my #1 favorite "cherry blossom after winter" and then other old manhwa since I felt like there's currently no update on other new manhwas
This is one of my favorite mangas so imagine how devastated I was to finally get an update only to read the ones with all the weird and excessive slangs. I’ll patiently wait for the ‘normalized’ chapters. Thank you again for your hardwork Jenny!! <3
Saw this on twt and i just have to read it!! I love the mc going through a crisis about who renri is and what that makes him. It makes my heart wrench seeing both azuru and renri struggle bc of being put in boxes and not ‘fitting in’. The struggle is real. I hope this manga is still ongoing!
also I didn’t know this was based off a vocaloid song, gonna listen to it rn!!
The present version of them is actually so sweet and warm. But knowing all this happened because Ido wanted to ‘redeem’ himself after literally ab*sing Sejin in their past life and driving him to s**cide, makes me feel so conflicted. Maybe it’s meant to make us feel like that.
I get it that Ido probably never wanted to be on an arranged marriage and acted all cold around mc. And now he genuinely feels remorse on his actions and loved him from what I’m seeing (Never read the novel, only guessing from what I get in the recent chapters)
But I can’t really praise him for trying to do better because of the victim. Sejin went through so so much growing up, then getting r**** by the ml, and literally having nightmares till the very present times, not knowing these ‘nightmares’ haunting him were actually his memories.
If these part of the story starts to unfold, I really hope that it does Sejin’s story justice.
*slight* *spoiler*
I did read parts of the novel and I do feel that the ML did grovel/redeem himself enough for their relationship to be ok. But maybe my threshold of good enough is different then some.
Thank god for the update, I’m willing to wait for another couple of months if it’s just to see these two meet again. I can already feel the bittersweet ending coming
I love it when Shinobu gets all worked up, so when the translator mentioned about him getting jealous of the new character for vol 3, I can’t wait for that. It’s his turn to overthink things and his developing relationship with Hikaru. Because it seems like he’s not used to having deep relationships with someone, so it would be interesting to learn more about that. I found Hikaru’s character a bit annoying at first, but knowing he’s a bit of a klutz and is stubborn bc of his pride, makes it really hilarious and fun to read
