Is the unofficial translation for the second season good? I would wait for Jujucat since I know they are pretty on time with their uploads, buuuut it has been a hot second since they uploaded an official chapter so I thinking I might just bite the bullet and read the unofficial. So if the unofficial is good quality I might read it
it's understandable
That doesn’t sound promising
The first few are a little rough from what I remember, but someone who knew what they were doing stepped in and so the later ones are actually pretty good quality.
Yeah, I'd say it's pretty HQ. The panels remain crisp and the dialogue flows pretty smoothly.
It might be because I sometimes scroll past it too fast but I didn't even realize it was a fanlation work
It’s good as someone who’s read the novel
Y’all super genuine question am I allowed to feel sorry for Eclis?
Hear me out and stop here if you don’t want spoilers, but from the very beginning, as Penelope literally said, it was her actions and choices that pushed Eclis this far. It’s been a hot second since I read any chapters before 160 so I can’t exactly remember how bad Eclis is, but I can’t help but think that if Penelope had approached him differently this could have been avoided. And it still hurts knowing that Penelope knew Eclis was brainwashed and still continues to hate him for the betrayal, and it’s not just Eclis, it’s anyone who’s been brainwashed by Ivonne. Unless I’m wrong about the way they are brainwashed and they have some free will that causes them to make choices that don’t favour in helping Penelope. I can understand Penelope’s feelings a bit though cause so many times in isekai stories we see the mc accept life as it is and adapts fast, however we don’t often see how it affects their mental health. So I appreciate that in this story Penelope is show to be more vulnerable and strong at the same time which is why I understand the choices she make and why she is cold to those who are clearly brainwashed. So in that case can I really sympathize with Eclis, like at all? Maybe after all this ranting who I really feel bad for is the Eclis who shouldn’t have been in the hard mode cause he doesn’t actually meet a bad ending in that storyline, right? Aka who Eclis could have been and not who he is currently. Also if you made it this far just thought I should mention I don’t condone anything harmful that Eclis has done because Penelope is a victim, but in some way Eclis and quite a few people in this webtoon are too.
Honestly I have the same issue
Throughout the chapters I've been feeling bad Eclis - I get that he has an obsession and Yvonne is using that to manipulate him.
It does hurt that Penelope is shouting him out despite knowing that he was brainwashed and literally cannot function as normal person because of his feelings for her. But I also understand where she is coming from so it makes I have conflicting feelings too.
Actually no,
the whole problem with Eclis is he himself and his love
The thing is,no matter how different Mc would've approached him or would do things differently he is always gonna turn this way just because that's the way he is written in this game
His love is toxic and selfish and quite literally lethal (to the person he loves) which was foreshadowed from the beginning by the color of his love
So no matter how,the moment his love percentage gets high,his tendencies and desires to isolate Penelope would start to grow and he would harm her one way or another cause thats the way his love works and if he doesn't love her then he is just gonna harm her for the person he has this desires for(the same as the easy mode)
I don't think it's wrong to feel bad for him as a person but it's important to understand where Penelope is coming from with her actions,she isn't just mad cause of the betrayal she learned that no matter what she can't never trust Eclis and his actions because his motive is always going to be a self-serving,sinister and determental is some ways
I agree with this. He clearly needs therapy and psychiatric help. I used to feel bad for him to, but I stopped recently around the time his counter is pointed out by Pen in the prison. I didn't really think hard about why I stopped feeling pitty for him after that. Thank you for putting it all into words!
Everybody needs therapy! I'm going. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Thank you! I didn’t realize that no matter how Penelope went about approaching Eclis normal and hard mode he would still be toxic. I feel bad that he was written that way and can’t change, or more like won’t change?
Agreed, everyone in this story’s gotta go to therapy
But are we not gonna talk about how he acts like he is saving her when she didn't ask for his help
Honestly the anesthesia line made me giggle a little, but that’s hella sad he had to say that. Like babe, you’re legs shouldn’t be purposely broken by your boyfriend PERIOD!
This is a giving and receiving scenario mainly the top provides while the mc recieves it might seem insane cause u might never been at a stand point of working and never actually being able to use your money for personal use so when he got that taste he liked it and became a reciever i can go deeper but i dont got time for that
I damn near had a heart attack when she dropped that hourglass How did it not break?!?!
The amount of of spoilers I just read by accident is insane
No major spoiler, but does this have a happy ending? I’m keeping my expectations low since it seems to be a psychological bl.
Yesss happy ending!!
Thxxx!
Can we all agree that we were all thinking Ajin should have kicked the baskets and when he did we cheered? It’s not just me, right?
Quick question, since so many people have said sungkyung has schizophrenia, how come it wasn’t as severe in the beginning of the story? Is it because as he said he was writing everything down or does trauma influence things. I have no clue how schizophrenia works so I’m lost
Honestly I'm curious too cause I'm just assuming he has some kind of schizophrenia or another illness near it
all mental illnesses are made worse by stress, generally... grief+trauma are absolutely types of stress. also w schizophrenia, sometimes it doesn't even manifest until ppl are in their 20s, often triggered by stress/trauma/grief/etc. journaling is a great way to relieve stress, process trauma, + keep memories straight so now that his one healthy(ish) coping mechanism is gone, im sure thats not helping!!
Ahhh okay, this makes so much more sense, thx!
I think people are forgetting that he’s on drugs. Like hello? People? They literally did a bag of that shit, drugs makes you hallucinate depending on the kind and how much you do
He's not. He's not allowed.
They literally are. They did that bag together if you go back a few chapters. Also, drugs stays in your system for a bit. Withdrawals can also be taken into consideration
Yeah. What I mean by "not allowed" is that he himself isn't allowed by Cheong-Rim as everytime he wants to take it, he's denied (unless it's shared with Lil'Rim)
But I never thought of the withdrawal (￣▽￣), so maybe!
also, some drugs can trigger latent schizophrenia, so even if he's not currently on drugs that could still smell him see/hear/feel things that aren't there
Hm, do you think 945 put that much thought into this? (I kinda hope so)
tbqh, given korea's crazy strict drug laws, i think 945 has never seen, smelled, or heard a drug in their entire life. but they probably did just enough research to get all the scary worst-case info abt drugs, so this might be intentional after all.
That was a rough ride. Just when I think Sang is actually being nice he goes a fucks it up by saying something stupid. I will give him one pass because Daol did know he wanted sex after his weight loss before a relationship because that how the only way he’ll enter a relationship, cause I’m sure that’s just how some people run and there’s nothing wrong with that (probably), but yeesh is Sang pushy. Daol can deny you for as long as he likes, babe and you’ll just have to deal with it ╮(￣▽￣)╭
