I have a soft spot for characters who choose to stay beside the one they love unconditionally while fully knowing that person is in love with someone else. Sounds angsty but it’s not too bad in this story. Keisuke never blackmailed the uke (uke was the one who “forced” him to state a “condition” since uke didn’t trust him at the time) and Keisuke never made the first move. He’s such a gentle character right from the start. Uke is likable too. I see a few comments focusing more on the childhood friend but he was meh imo, just the bare minimum. This was not too angsty or heart-wrenching in its portrayal, just a cute read overall.
onion baby says the most healing things. dating someone like that would be such a breath of fresh air. they’re both such precious darlings, as well as the people around them. this is such a sweet read.
That’s exactly how all teachers in mangas should be like. They should see their students as squirrels and rabbits residing within a forest and not potential love interests. I absolutely adore characters who take “adulting” very seriously and would never consider laying a hand on their students, not even after graduation.
But it’s a pain to wait a week or so for every chapter. I’ll put this off until it’s completed. Wonder how many years it will take
I can’t get my head around the ML killing so many people (were some of them innocent?) so I can’t exactly support his happiness like I keep holding myself back from feeling happy for him but after reading some spoilers here, it seems all the people he killed may have been involved in torturing him in the past? Guess I’ll stick around for the big reveal of the emperor’s past.
Yeah, just finished reading and (spoiler alert) it apparently went something like: king marries a maid of a noble family and has ML. Seems like a happy story, but ML’s mother dies and the new empress sends ML to a “camp” of some sort (I kinda catched that it might’ve been masked as behavioral rehabilitation camp) in which they tortured and brainwashed the children into becoming obedient assassins. Thing is, that ML got out of the brainwash but stayed and learned until he became strong and enough to get vengeance for himself and kill everyone involved in the whole thing. It honestly seems like many things were left unsaid in that past story because the “vengeance” involves way too many people and there seems to be a fallen kingdom involved (which wasn’t part of the vengeance, it’s said that there was a bit of a chaotic political situation when the vengeance took place, so that might be why the rebels are after ML). Idk, it would’ve been better to have a clearer view into that past, but that’s just what I understood of what I read. It’s up to the individual (each reader) to judge whether they consider the ML to be innocent or not ╮(￣ ◡ ￣)╭
(Might contain spoiler alert)
By the way, nothing is really mentioned in the story (that I noticed) and this is just an opinion/conjecture of mine, but I think that ML’s mother might’ve been killed by the “new” empress that sent him to the torture camp. And, judging by the little glimpse (just one memory frame, if I remember correctly) that we got of the other empress and her golden hair… (I’ll leave it at that, anyone that has read the story, feel free to connect the dots if you’d like)
There’s literally no one to root for in this fight as they’re both aholes. But I’d say the bald guy is just a tad bit worse than Jaekyung since his team uses underhanded tricks. I hate that even the coaches who are always kind to Kim Dan were a little harsh to him, like I get why they were frustrated, I just hate the fact that Kim Dan who is innocent is getting blamed for the injury.
Yeah this chapter was a bit frustrating to read and it seems like it’s only going to get worse now that foul play has happened
I hope that Dan stays a good person until the end. If he’s gonna leave, I hope it’s because it’s simply what’s best for himself and not to betray or get back at Jaekyung. Please don’t turn toxic like Jaekyung, Dan.
Ahhhh finally found this after 1 hour of searching on google images lol but it seems updates are not consistent? Hope someone pick this up~~~
