Everyone mentioning bj Alex has me wondering if this story is going to have a similar ch count (bja: 89+sides) and pacing. I gen hope it runs longer bc bja's end felt underdeveloped and this story's lvl of toxic is like bja on crack on steroids.
Like are we really going to go through ML's 'tragic origin story' of why he's such a bitchass, AND mc's grandma's death, AND the mma title dispute, AND the underground betting, AND ml's redemption, AND their reconciliation within 26 chapters?? Hmm?? Bc that sounds like dogshit but also completely plausible with the current pacing.
the premise of this story is basically that oneyplays bit where if you throw a GameCube into your bath, instead of dying, you get transported into Smash Bros
ADOPT THAT SAD BOY AND HIS COW RNNN
Like talk about an origin storyAbandoned and searching for his long lost father, then a former solider and his manwife, the king of the mountains, take you in and now him and best friend (cow), live together w his gma, gay dads, bb sister, and chicken
Like please or AT LEAST help track down his dad (and ask wtf is up and where tf he been)
My reaction to ch57 was the same as Bey's reaction to Cowboy Carter winning AOTY
The authors note lwk pmo atp I wanna fight everyone on the production team of this story for wasting my time. The premise had sm potential but then they sharted out this abortion of a webtoon.
If I was Dan, I'd leak ML's location to his crazy fans so he'd be forced to leave
Is there a novel? Is Alicia fr evil/crazy or do they only call her a witch bc she's a cunning/outspoken woman that threatens the world view of the old men?
This story feels like the opposite of the Bechdel TestLike how long can we go until they're legally required to write a woman into the plot
But the way MC asks "what's wrong with that?" Feels like the author farted into their hand and shoved it in my face
It has all the makings of average BL slop (transactional relationship premise, ceo attitude/cold to everyone except to one person, happy-go-lucky/airhead twink) but NONE of the toxic, rapey bullshit that usually comes along with BL slop.
No need for mental gymnastics to justify the plot. Characters feel grounded and real (if you've ever been a gm or in a competative guild, the portrayal of MC trying to wrangle together so many big personalities is just so apt (๑ ╥﹏╥)و✧). Don't even get me started on the world building, oy it's too good
this story is a great example of the effects of heteronormativity in that every character has brain worms and are barely capable of forming a cohesive thought ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ (what is mc feeling? heartbreak over another man? surely not, it must be an incomprehensible hatred of women!)
The story gets cringe-ier with every chapter and the characters are just so...embarassing. Idk this one babes
WHY have we, as a society, forgotten the lost artform of kicking men in the nuts? So many problems would be solved if we just kicked men in the nuts and kept kicking them in the nuts until they either stop bothering us or outright die
this story is nuts it's like Call me By Your Name meets Polar or if Luca Guadagnino directed a Jason Statham film
I hope they adopt Yeonjoo. Still not over how he asks every man that comes to the village if they're his father like fuck man that shits so fsad!!! and also the baby would get a big brother! :>
