SIR??? What is thank you supposed to MEAN??? Thank you but I don't feel the same? Thank you, I'll think about it and get back to you at a later date? MF THIS ISN'T AN EMAIL YOU CAN DISMISS UNTIL YOU'RE IN THE MOOD TO RESPOND
Yk what? I'm not gonna complain because for ONCE the couple with communication issues isn't the main couple in a manga. I'm just gonna focus on Gaku and Hibari being a healthy couple while those two sort their shit out at their pace.
This chapter was so uncomfortable that it ended up being hilarious. Also what's up with the incisions on both sides of Donovan's head? Did he undergo some kind of brain surgery? Is that why he behaves in this weird way? Bro feels like an alien trying and desperately failing at acting like a human being. That part when Damian was like "um so..." and Donovan was like "Mm."????? BRO TF DO YOU MEAN MM YOUR SON DIDN'T EVEN SAY ANYTHING YET.
But then Demetrius also acts super weird like his father, so maybe it wasn't a brain surgery after all. Is it hereditary? Were they both experimented on? Is that why Anya couldn't read his thoughts? Does he have some mental barrier that blocks espers AND social cues and feelings of awkwardness? Is he more of a "no thoughts, head empty" kind of dude? (That wouldn't make any sense since he excels at his subjects). What could possibly explain just how out of depth these two seem to be?
And Melinda. Man she was so uncomfortable, totally the opposite of how she acts around Yor and her other friends. If I didn't vividly remember her thoughts regarding Damian after the bus incident, I would've thought she was normal. I wonder what her story is...
Poor Damian isn't exactly winning in life ;-; best of luck to him.
I read some spoilers and this honestly sucks hard. Promising (ish) start but then it gets so dramatic with so many unnecessary developments it's tiresome
*SPOILERS FOR ANYONE WHO'S INTERESTED*

-Apparently MC isn't actually from Korea. Her mother is the one who read the book and transmigrated and she kinda told her daughter/brainwashed her about it.
-MC's real name is Elysia, she's the daughter of a Duke.
-In the OG book, Elysia was supposed to end up with the Crown Prince and then die while giving birth.
-The CP is a huge piece of trash, so MC's mom sent her to become a priestess in hoping she could avoid the marriage between her and the CP.
-CP was already obsessed with MC when she became a priestess. 6 months ago he tried to r*pe her and that's why she stabbed him and threw herself in the water. She then lost her memories and thought she transmigrated from Korea.
-CP is also the one who made ML blind because red eyes are a symbol of emperors or something and CP's eyes are blue so...
-BACK TO PRESENT TIME: when Karina refuses to help ML, MC (as Lorena) will boil the plant and ask ML to drink it.
-ML will then spend a few days kinda out of it.
-While ML is out of it, Lorena will be found by her family and be taken back.
-ML will wake up having regained his eyesight and will find Lorena gone.
-MC won't go back to being a priestess, instead she'll join society as Elysia, the daughter of the Duke.
-WHILE ALL THIS WAS HAPPENING: it turns out that CP was actually just using Karina. They'll have a one night stand (consensual) and then he'll dump her.
-Karina will remember that Lorena told her about ML being her fated one, so she'll go to the café in hopes of meeting Lorena to ask her more about him.
-There, Karina will be attacked by some thugs and will be saved by ML. She'll fall in love with him without knowing he's the Duke.
-There will be some Ball, ML will recognize MC there because of a dress he got her + her voice. CP will also notice Elysia. ML will ask MC to dance with him, so CP will dance with Karina. Karina will realize the guy she's into is the ML.
-After the ball, ML will kinda start courting MC but not really. I think it's more like he'll be spending time with her but without it being a formal courtship.
-Karina will ask MC to help her get together with ML.
-Idk if MC will straight up refuse or if she'll consider it, but basically ML will tell MC that he's not interested in Karina, and that he's in love with Elysia herself.
-IIRC Elysia will confess back and they'll decide to get married.
-Before that happens, MC's mom will remind her of the book and that ML is fated to be with Karina. So MC will change her mind about the marriage. MC's mom will try to send her to another country, away from both CP and ML.
-Before MC boards the ship, she'll hear that ML lost his eyesight again.
-She'll rush over to his place to see him, and will discover that he faked his blindness this time.
-They'll confess to each other again and then they'll go to have a picnic in the mountains.
-Idk what the ML will leave the picnic to do, but once he comes back he'll find MC gone. At first he thinks she ran away again, but then he finds a shoe of hers and realises she's been kidnapped.
-ML will go to MC's mom thinking she was the one who kidnapped her daughter. She was not, but she tells him it's probably the CP since he's obsessed with her.
-ML will go to the CP's place and finds MC paralysed with some drug. CP was planning on r*ping her.
-ML will save MC but she'll lose her memory. Again.
-At this point the spoilers kinda stopped because apparently the novel's translator dropped it, but someone said MC will reject ML once she gets back her memories, and then the person who said this also dropped the novel so idk what happens after that.
Also I just find so many of the previously mentioned events in the spoilers unnecessary like that bit about her mother trying to send her abroad (literally why? At this point we know that MC did not transmigrate and so isn't trying to make sure the story takes place to go back to her family anymore. And MC's mom, the actual transmigrator, is actively trying to deviate from the plot because she doesn't want her daughter to be with CP, so why does it suddenly matter that in the book the Duke ended up with Karina?) only for MC to change her mind, and the second amnesia thing.
I don't understand the hate towards buzzcut dude? Sure, he messed up with the "thank you" thing and I myself was annoyed by that, but hating on the guy because... *checks notes* he's already into someone else and was honest about it instead of trying to use our girl to move on, failing, and ultimately playing with her feelings and stringing her along like so many male characters do in shoujos is weird.
People (and fictional characters in this case) are allowed to not reciprocate someone else's feelings, and as long as they're not a douchebag about it that's completely fine. And as far as I remember, he didn't particularly give her false hopes or give her the impression he was into her.
Idk man, he's okay in my book (so far. Istg if he pulls a dick move after I've white knighted for him I'll be so mad ;-;)
