i haven’t seen such an unlikeable ML is in a hot minute.
genuine question: why are there so many manhwa/mangas that have the Main characters essentially “raising” their love interests. i look at a BL that seems like it has a cool artstyle and JUMPSCARE the MC is raising a kid. i can’t do this anymore guys please stop
i just wanna first give credit where credit is definitely due: and that’s in the incredibly beautiful artstyle. Everything else though was shit. and the worst part is that it actually has potential. i think the themes portrayed are really powerful and can make a really compelling message. unfortunately, this manga wants to pretend it’s revealing these greater truths and dark themes without taking the actual time to deconstruct and deliver them in a respectful manner. fuck the fmc and her predatory relationship with her student, fuck the rapist guy who were supposed to feel sad for ig because oh no his mom was a domestic abuse victim (i’m not invalidating the suffering and misery his mom and even he experienced. i just fucking hate the way it’s handled), fuck that girl who was taking pictures of them like a creep and constantly contradicting her, fuck her rapist pseudo bf(?), and honestly fuck the author for making me go through this shit. This shit is honestly more harmful because it’s so unclear on its moral stance and especially because of its deplorable abusive relationships and dynamics that it never properly handles. this feels like one of those european artsy films that pretend like they have some greater message when in reality they’re just rape fantasies wrapped in pretty cinematography and visual language. i hate this manga so much that midway through my anger was directed at not the characters and horrible storylines but the author themselves. whoever the fuck created this i need you to sleep with one eye open
I had to leave the site and convert to Islam for a second. Damn that was some second hand embarrassment ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
Yk i think the FL never had any intention on marrying in the first place. She probably kept asking her ex that because she mistakenly thought that it would mend their relationship. And after this last chapter, it’s obvious that she realizes that it never would’ve worked out like that anyway. So now she no longer feels obligated to marry anyone so much so that shes avoiding the whole thing all together (which isn’t a bad thing on its own). The problem is that the ML obviously treasures marriage and that’s creating a wedge between their relationship. Not only that, he’s clearly insecure and just a really jealous person over all. (that shit that he pulled with the subordinate still pisses me off) Regardless, i think they’re just different people and clearly not ready for another relationship especially after coming out the toxic ones they just had. This is sadly just a classic case of people who haven’t healed from their previous relationships rushing into another one unfortunately.
