Y'all never satisfied with whatever Jiho does and y'all never see any fault in Inwoo, it's embarrassing.
Both are complex characters who contributed to this shit they're now in, and even Inwoo who everyone felt indignant on his behalf is now thinking "i wonder if my mother left the country. I wonder if that phonecall Jiho arranged with her will be our last" and it's not in a 'i hope she never appears again' way so lol. Some of the people here are not and will never be ready for the take that Inwoo might actually have overreacted and would rethink what happened and maybe think that talking to his mum wasn't equal to forgiving her.

In any case, I see they haven't talked it out exactly and that Inwoo is resorting to sex again because that's the only way he knows how to express his emotions (it's a common occurrence now) and idk why y'all are pressed they haven't talked like to me it makes sense they won't talk first thing given their personalities. Jiho is so high on his new determination to prove his love for Inwoo and support him any way he can, and Inwoo is riding the high of being loved the way he wished it was expressed to him. Addressing what had happened will force an awkward atmosphere and for now they miss each other too much to want that kind of dump. They will talk about it (hopefully) just doesn't have to be the same exact day they reunite.

Edit: before someone yells "Even if he rethinks it now it doesn't justify what Jiho did!!!!" And yeah it doesn't that's why i never said that.

Edit 2: for everyone saying "leaving his job isn't a big deal!" Bruh he wasn't hoping for you to think so?? He didn't do it to be like 'see how great i am? I did this for you!' and if you think someone doing something like that to care foe their loved one means so then I'm sorry to you for whatever happened in your childhood that led to that sort of thinking. This is just someone who rethought his priorities and adjusted his life accordingly, don't read too much into it.

I don't know how can they move forward from this. While I think Cirrus understood Skylar's trauma (despite being a dick and manipulating it earlier in the story) Skylar doesn't get his. It's hard already to deal with someone with BPD but it's even harder if you /don't/ understand they have it. In Skylar's POV Cirrus's lies seem manipulative and sinister, holding dirty amusement, while in actuality Cirrus's stupid cycling around and his lies are due to the intense fear of being abandoned and left behind, yet again. What Skylar just told him is the worst thing possible to tell someone healthy, let alone someone in that state, shivering and begging and bearing their heart. I'm not saying Cirrus didn't fuck up, it just doesn't justify Skylar being an asshole, saying words he knows will cut deep.

Given reassurances and help, they can overcome the previous lies with understanding and stopping the pattern, having Cirrus secure in their relationship and learn to be completely honest (especially once Skylar understands/why/ he lies) but idk how can they resolve whatever shit Skylar just told Cirrus. Some words you can never take back, and that's one example of them. This is why many people fear sharing private matters and why relationships are hard for them.

Never use someone's very core weakness/trauma against them like this It's not right, whether it be Skylar or Cirrus. Aaahh i feel sick. This update had me crying.

Zhenzhu created a topic of The Blood Of Madam Giselle

I'm actually pissed cause i stayed up till 3am rn on a work night only for a stupid ending like that. It doesn't even make sense that Isaac is the killer bec in earlier chapters he was with Giselle while someone got killed. Also people were killed before he broke the lock.
Her lack of hesitation to kill him made no sense at all. This entire scene was so out of character for everyone. And even if it's Isaac and he used the "hunt" to hurt them, why tf would he procure a coat and get up and everything and how. Just... Yeah. Also new kid is standing in the sun lol so uhhh... Also they never explained and got into depth about Tuitte's issues with Olivia and author made it seem like Tuitte wanted to leave her but couldn't, physically, but here we are.

This is just plain stupid like what was the point of purpose of that ending what did we achieve? What about the "mistress" did her story end just like that? Idk mate it doesn't even make sense that Isaac killed all those people while having no memory all the time and not show any manifestations of memory loss, unexplained injuries from struggle, and bloodied clothes/hands. Haa... I need to forget about this stupid manhwa so i can go to sleep for whatever remainder of the night I have. I hope the author's bedbugs always bite and that their socks are always wet and their cereal always soggy and their hair always frizzy and their mosquitoes always loud but invisible.

Zhenzhu created a topic of The Man Who Can't Taste

I've been dreading each chapter update mostly for the comments that will ensue and yet I end up scrolling down anyway...

A lot of you are scandalized for Inwoo's sake, and I get that, but I feel like a lot of you are that hurt and angry in his stead because you might be in his position too, lashing out at the possibility of someone making you face your demons rather than cheer you on while you run fast from them.

Also a lot of you forget Jiho isn't exactly a stable person either, and just because he finally faced his own demons doesn't mean he's now a healthy human being.

That being said, the reason Jiho was able to overcome his problems and mental issues (which aren't even fully solved imo) is because Inwoo pushed him and gave him that nudge. Not everyone needs support in the same way. Some may need it in delicate gentle forms, others need a harsher approach. Some may need it in form of words, others may need it in actions. Jiho had to face the possibility of losing what he loved for him ro decide facing the demons is way better than living all his life regretting not doing so.

Jiho has been supportive to Inwoo all along. He understood him, stood by him, and defended him to other people who did not understand his position and only seen things in pity of his ex, which was unfair. Y'all speak of Jiho like he's some loser who Inwoo somehow managed to let into his life like Inwoo is a poor judge of character or smth. It's like Inwoo is allowed to be unstable and gloomy and downright cause someone distress over seeing him deteriorate and be traumatized, but Jiho having cagey responses and fear of shame due to family trauma???? How DARE he. He is bad for Inwoo. Wow aren't y'all so righteous?

It's very distressing to see someone slowly die before your eyes and not be able to do anything. He can't even be depressed or affected by it otherwise he'll be repeating what his ex wife did and that won't solve anything. He's not given space to breakdown over watching Inwoo's spirit leave his body slowly. He tried being gentle, talking to him about it, slowly nudging him. It didn't work, obviously, so it reached a point where forcefully pushing him out of his comfort zone and putting him in front of the door to the room where his demons lay is the only way. He's not dictating what Inwoo should say to his mother or treat her as or forgive her, he just wants him to GO into the room and face her so he can break that cycle and have any development instead of wasting away.

It's uncomfortable, yes. It's cruel. It's betrayal. But one day Inwoo will realize that was the best thing someone has ever done to him, risking their relationship and risking being hated just to see the person they love be human again. Y'all keep hating on Jiho like he's so dumbass monster but Jiho knew he'll hate him for it yet still did it because in his mind there was no other way. And please don't pull the "take him to therapy" card. 1- you think inwoo wouldn't have reacted the same way had Jiho suggested that? 2- a therapist would've also recommend Inwoo meet up with his mother had he told them what Jiho is trying

If you don't have adequate empathy and legitimate professional takes on how to deal with a mentally ill partner and think the best thing to do is coddle them in their decline and deterioration and tell them you love them even if they become nothing but a walking corpse or they're still lovely to u even if they stay in bed all day refuse to eat or shower or see the sun, that you won't force them to get up when the nice way isn't working, then please for the love of god do not be with mentally ill people they deserve better than this. If coddling and cooing and "aww I understand you baby it's okay you're nice the way u are" is a cure I suppose therapists would've been out of jobs wouldn't they? Smfh

Zhenzhu created a topic of Secondo Piatto

Look I'm not asking for much—

Once again commenting on this manhwa which I run to its updates against my will (i just wanna know what will happen so bad that I willingly let myself be angered)

But nothing in this manhwa beats my annoyance at the people who hate Alphonso. I understand wavering for Raphael, he's hot and unhinged in a way and has that angsty edgelord persona that's just so delectable, but rooting for whateverhisnamewas redhead bastard? "He's so fun he matches aridane" uhhh I doubt the assholes and redflags and te people who end up being domestic abusers had that aura from the get go otherwise be with them from the start? Unless, well, you're stupid, or a masochist, or both.

That aside, hating Alphonso?? Idk why peoplr keep saying he's boring or he's not doing enough for Ari or a coward, when none of you are taking his position and upbringing into consideration. He's not like the other two, he's not in a position to freely make risky decisions based on desire and beg a little until his parents are convinced. Everything he does has a direct consequence on the throne and nation. Besides that, taking his upbringing into consideration, Alphonso has been raised to not desire anything and not hold on to anything and try his best to avoid his father's wrath because the one to face it later on was his mother. You'd think "haa his mother is dead now he can finally rebel" Joke's on you he has ptsd now that his mother died BECAUSE of him holding on to something he desired for the first time. It's like a proof that he can't do this, yet he still tries because he loves Ariadne. His hands are tied as a prince and future king. Having Ariadne isn't an easy thing and idk why y'all think it is.

Give the man a break, he was raised to not be too frivolous or too enthusiastic or want something or go outside the lanes his father had drawn for them, so i guess he's sorry you think he's boring bec of that. He's slowly breaking free and doing things he never would've imagined doing, for Ariadne. I still root for you, Alphonso, regardless of who you end up with or if you don't. I just want him to actually finally find peace.

When seonwoo nearly fainted from how sexy his boyfriend is, I felt that.


Same.

He literally reached the point of asking her to give him a direct answer, be with him or tell him to leave/go die, yet she's still changing her mind every few chapters or so on whether she wants him. Woman. I don't understand like I am not saying this ain't toxic on both sides, and fuck this story and everything, but taking this specific plot point into perspective, how is this the moment you decide to believe him??? Like wasn't it the intention of that past incident where he left Dietrich to die? He specifically kept apologizing and crying and begging you to believe him, yet you refused it all saying you don't care what he feels now or says now it's the fact he already did it.

Which is cool. Okay. Weird and kinda hypocritical but sure.

Now dawg.... He says the same apology to Dietrich. The. Same. Exact. Apology. And suddenly you believe him? Suddenly you decide ahhh he says the same thing to Dietrich so I guess it must be true guess he wasn't lying to me I should've accepted his apology and understood that it was a moment of weakness where he resorted to his base instincts that were ingrained into him in his past life by his heinous half brother and sadistic wife?

Wow. What changed shawty? I guess Willheim should tell other people what he wishes to tell Reinhardt for her to actually fucking hear him out and spare us all the stupid brain numbing blood boiling useless dragging of this plot and scenes.

This could've focused on both of them healing from years of repeated cycles of abuse, abandonment issues, and manipulation. They could've had problems within the confines of reason that HELPED them grow as characters, not sent their personalities 6 feet under.

*Insert the meme of the cow standing by the beach with the word "Man" written in times new roman right above it*

So it looks like Wilhelm, but if it's a boy it's bad, and if it's a girl it's okay I'll take care of her and not give her trauma? I see.

Poor Billoi.

Fuck this shit... I never claimed that Wilhelm is a nice man but damn she's a bitch. Idc what y'all come at me with the whole rape thing and how she's a wonderful human being for keeping the pregnancies, she chose to keep the kids then she owns up to that choice. She chose to bring those children to life, so why is it their fault and have to bear the consequences? Tf did Billoi even do? Why did he have to face a cold unloving mother who didn't hesitate to throw him away? When she's perfectly capable of raising the kid, hence Bianca. My god I never hated a female character as much as I hate her.

Finally some different kind of stabbing

Zhenzhu created a topic of Instant Family

He was hard, but the knife was the one that did all the penetration. Smh.

Man. I will admit Wilhelm was a manipulative pos and has his crocodile tears always ready to garner pity from Rein, and was a little (lot) crazy about her enough to not care Dietrich might die as long as it makes her only look at him.

It's just... He never actually killed him. He never ACTIVELY did anything. Thing is, the one who led to all of this is Rein and she just can't seem to admit it so she uses the victim card all the time. She's a gaslighter and purposefully turns a blind eye to the fact she raised, manipulated, and groomed a young boy to grow up into a tool for her hatred and revenge when she had no idea he had memories of his past life and wasn't actually groomed. I was never behind the grooming allegations because I knew he had his memories and isn't a young immature boy who can be easily swayed, but that doesn't erase her actual intentions.

She made him into someone who'll not think twice to lay his life for her and her cause, a dog on a leash again but this time in HER hands, then when he started to show a personality she... Rejected him????

Like can we all go back a bit and remember the first instances she started to have issues with Will? 1- He never told her he had his memories so he's a liar and a bad guy (she never informed him she had her memories either)
2- He developed his own thoughts and desires to take revenge as well for HIMSELF that will ultimately help her but isn't exactly in line wuth her plan (using the princess/queen idk the white haired bitch who hurt him in his past life)
3-He showed his own desires by developing feelings for her and occasionally refusing her "orders" because he either feared for her or wanted to be near her (cause how dare he i suppose)

It's not even about Wilhelm being a dick or Dietrich to begin with, it's just Rein is so adamant at proving she's right at forsaking love because of her first life, and about her losing control of the situation she carefully planned and dedicated her second life before because her tool started having, god help us all, its own thoughts.

Wilhelm IS fucked up and is not free from fault but it's ridiculous to coo and comfort the fl when she's a bitch who led to all of this happening. She kept leading him on then keeping him out of reach. Pulling him in then drawing a line and telling him not to cross. Giving him affection only to tell him it's momentary and he has to be the king/emperor for her, and that means she is not his. No wonder the guy was frantic all the time and felt like he can lose her any second, and why he sought every way to be her only option, because she really made herself to be his only one as well. He CAN'T see another option, she made sure of that the second life.

It only proves how fucking heartless she is when she was so quick to abandon her innocent child because of this. Idc how much he looked like Wilhelm and that hurt, but he is a child. He LOVES you, and needs you, and you know Wilhelm will be too emotionally anguished to care for a young boy when he can't even care for himself because you made sure of that too. So what the FUCK? She could've at LEAST kept him and let the servants raise him but made sure that he's at least safe and well taken care of and amongst people who love him.

This fucking bitch. I really cannot stand her. Any saving grace I could've granted for her was lost when she didn't look back once at her child.
