i really had high expectations cus of the ratings and the concept is so interesting having siblings reincarnate together, but like many other people, the mcs really frustrate me. ik they were abused and all, but they don't act like theyre mentally 23? like why is she attracted to someone way younger than her if shes mentally 23 and how bad they their social skills are considering they went to school in their previous life. It seems they are very bad at relationships and understanding other people's feelings and like to jump to conclusions which would've bee fine if they were mentally 5. they act like how normal abused 5 year olds would act instead of mentally 23 yr olds. But either way I think the plot and the concept with the guardians is very interesting, so hopefully the mcs will go through some growth soon..
honestly I can't help but be frustrated at hari. shes a 27 yr old on the inside and she already experienced all this once, yet she doesn't act like it. She doesn't even try to prevent her parents death even though they treated her like their own, not to mention she feels sad for like 1 second during the funeral and acts as if her brothers are childish for not eating even though they are suffering. I get that she's not used to eugene being nice to her but hes clearly trying to mend their relationship, and considering that shes lived 27 years you would think she will come to realize that. I get that she can't change everything, but even if she were to have at least tried to save her parents that would've been enough. Everything she does comes off as lukewarm, like maybe she tries but if feels like she never gives her 100%. I can't help but think that in this second chance given to her, she has barely changed, only that her relationship w her brothers (mostly eugene, not even erich ) have slightly improved.
Same she did nothing to prevent their death (those we think that she did something please tell us the chapter cause I saw nothing) and she acts as if she is still a kid... with her knowledge she could help her older brother or at least speak up to the shady aunty but no she acts powerless... I found it frustrating
A dream she lived in for 1 year and a half just eating and lazying around even though she knew that they will « potentially » die ? Then she must fear nothing to be able to be at peace like this even when she knows things will go down. She is 27 not 7 :( Maybe it is because I am used to female lead with strong attitude but honestly couldn’t understand why she couldn’t at least help her brothers or just be useful to the family who adopted her (I repeat if she did something to try saving them or being helpful please show us the chapter cause I might have missed it)
Chapter 26 talks about how she threw a fit and prevented them from going on the trip that kills them originally, giving them another year to live. Shes helping the youngest with his sleepwalking, by keeping it a secret, she believes he won't find himself weak and give himself trauma like how he did in the past. She keeps the aunts abuse to herself to keep stress off of the eldest, who's already getting pressure from older relatives and Is working extremely hard. Her past from when the eldest talked to their parents is different, and she can't predict anything anymore. It deadass feels like y'all ain't even reading the same story lmao.
Don’t worry lol We are definitely reading the same story but I think I must just be used to strong females lead :/ I am really biased with this story I admit it :/ (I reread chap 26 and you are eight so thank you for pointing it out) I don’t find it useful at all to knowingly accept abuse from the aunt when (normally at the age of 27 and since she had already suffered from that treatment) she could just put a stop at it (stress or not if we consider her brother’s point of view wouldn’t it be better to be temporarily stressed out but freeing his little sister of the other woman schemes ?) and how would it help to keep the sleep walking secret ? The kid have to see a doctor because he is traumatized by his parents death (unless she has the medical or/and traditional way/skill I don’t know how she is helping him at all) I don’t find her martyr comportment wise considering all the troubles she supposedly ran into before she reincarnated :/ And I repeat helping his brother to "lighten" his burden should’ve been her top priority if she cared that much for his stress level :/ She is 27 :/ But now that I think about it maybe she didn’t learnt any skills in accounting or things related to management in her past life. I don’t know if it is better to think that :/ I am sorry I don’t know if I explain well my point of view on this matter
No I understand, and I hope I didn't come out as rude. I also adore strong mc's and It also took me a bit to understand why she was just taking some things and not others. I remember something about the youngest not seeking a doctor but instead requesting to be tied to his bed to stop himself from roaming and I think she's trying to prevent it, and as for the eldest, I don't know if she has any estate management knowledge so I guess the best she can do is be a martyr. I think that it's because she's 27 and wiser that shes choosing to take this abuse and keep quiet, because while the abuse is the same, the reasons and schemes the aunt is coming up with seem to be different. But it's still ongoing, and hopefully we'll get to see her fuck up Aunty and become a badass mc in the future chapters.
I mean, even though she’s 27, she’s not in a position of power to help out her brothers financially, mentally, and even physically because some of her brothers still haven’t accepted her into their lives. And even though she’s older and wiser, it’s still possible that she has never gone through enough trauma to know how to deal with it herself, let alone help others cope. But I do agree that she could have attempted to be more useful and comfort them when they needed it.
does anyone know how many chapters the novel will have? some say it's around 200 but others around 300
The novel has 262 chapters of the main story. I read that after that there will be a few extra chapters. However, the translation of the novel is split in two parts, meaning that one chapter is split into two pieces. In other words, the translation would probably be almost 500 chapters, but that's only because one chapter is split into two.
im currently reading it here
