Like if we all take a minute and step back there is just a lot of issues going on with the characters and there relationships that don't really reflect what the author is going for and I just need to rant for a second.
First let's talk about the main two dudes. They have no chemistry let alone any resemblance of a relationship. Up until this wedding they despised each other with the love interest being downright cruel to our main character. Then all of a sudden he gives him a ride holds his hand and flirts a little and im supposed to act like they are good now? The only explanation for his behavior we got was this self hatred bullshit that never ended up getting fully explained to the mc where he apologized before trying to get romantic with him. Like if someone who was mean to you your whole life suddenly flirts with you would that not be a huge turn off? And now after the latest chapter we see them kissing and wrapping their arms around each other all couple like and then suddenly the mc comes out and says this dude is confused??? THE WHOLE RELATIONSHIP IS CONFUSING! jeez and now we are probably gonna get the whole "but your not gay" plotline which doesn't work with the information given to the mc about the love interest being mean because he was represented. A big yikes from me dog.
And the girl where do I begin. First off she is seen as a sisterly character who falls on the more mature side as she's moving forward with her life and getting married however she is super immature and not a great friend in general. She let's her brother continually treat her friend like shit and expects them to suddenly get along cause she's getting married? Then one of her childhood friends ridicules the mc and almost kills him but its cool everything is fine cause he has his reasons and will suffer no consequences for his actions. And then there's the whole pregnancy scare where she tells everyone she's pregnant before even taking a pregnancy test???? And not just her best friend but her whole family??? And then we are supposed to believe this girl is responsible for raising a kid? She feels more like the authors self insert so that they can interact with the main couple and have an influence in their relationship.
Just overall the story is lacking and not very good but if you like it go off I guess.
Spill the truth, bruh. Every one of these characters are idiots, even Stefan is getting a little bit of that dumb character vibes. But? I love the people standing up for Char after she let her shit brother near her best friend and her Kuwabara-looking cousin to treat him like shit too. This comic is painfully bad.
i completely agree, i’ve read the novel and some of the same issues remain but it covers the explanations and character development problems you pointed out much better than this adaptation. Since i read the novel right after reading the first few chapters, i just ignored some of the changes and holes that weren’t in the novel because I already know what happens and why, so it was easy to gloss over the things you covered. i still enjoy the comic a lot but yeah
its like a mystery about kids who go to school on an island who think their teachers are trying to kill them. the main characters are an older brother and little sister who starts going to this school right after a kid is sent to the mainland because of injury. they also see the ghost of a girl on the island who helps them out from time to time.
it was about these two best friends and one was in track and for some reason, his dick was getting smaller so he had to do a prostate massage regularly or else his dick would keep shrinking so he got his best friend to do it. his friend at first didn't want to but slowly started to get into it and they started to develop feelings for each other. help me find this beloved manga~
I think it's this one: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/shinyuu_tte_soko_made_shinakucha_ikenai_no/ :)
I know we don't like ML but it's probably gonna be an important part of understanding why he did the things he did. His backstory probably isn't going to be a redemption for him or for us to pity him but to understand him. Just like when the sister visited the FL. We know why her brother shot FL, and while it wasn't a justifiable action we can understand it.
The story presents us with an interesting question, "Does ignorance make you any less guilty?" So far we know that the revolution was justifiable and that our protagonist directly benefited from the system that took so many lives. We get to see that she has first hand seen the upset by the people and her actively ignoring the signs.
As the story progresses I hope we can see further developments on her and ML as characters and understand where is the line drawn for what is understandable actions. We can understand and forgive the FL for being ignorant to the injustice of the system she lived in because she acknowledges how it was wrong and takes actions to make her country better.
While the ML had every right to start this revolution and hold the royal family accountable for how they treated the common folk. However, he then crosses the line by continuing to punish the FL. She has already received punishment but to continue that kind of cruel treatment has made him no better than the nobles he hated so much.
At this point I don't think he can be redeemed. His actions have crosses over so many lines that it would be unsatisfactory to see him get a happy ending but I hope he will seek atonement. I think that will be a nice juxtaposition for our FL who I hope will have a redemption arc and show the difference between the two. If she defended her family against the revolution would we still see her as innocent? I think that would be an interesting question to ask ourselves as we learn more about what lead to the revolution in the first place.
Exactily!!
You explained it so well!! I hate the ml but I can also understand him. All the characters are well written so far they have their emotions and reasons in their actions which makes them feel real and human.
