Cleopatra's activites

If you want to read a realistic narrative about bullying I think 3gatsu no Lion has a really good arc on middle school bullying though it's quite far into the story

I don't get why this went viral it's pretty badly written. Most people are caricatures and all of it is so divorced from reality already without the alien that it all doesn't really matter..

This is also available in the mangaPlus app for free btw!

Girl how do we delete this I love this webtoon it's one of the few I've bought in full but it's available in other places if you wanna pirate it, do you really need to risk the site going down again??

I feel like although this story is cute by the end it is basically a completely different story from the one in the beginning. Not just the art but the whole isekai part was removed and alongside it the vibe is totally different!
I mean the mc *SPOILER*


being the reincarnation of the goddess makes no sense if we take the "original" version of the story at face value, not just cause she dies but also her being a sort of petty villainess is completely at odds with what she was supposed to be at the end. And if the story was meant to end the way it did, then does that mean someone interfered in the previous version..? And I don't get her saying she "pretended" to be in a novel because that would still not make sense since she got isekai'ed from "our" world. Idk it just feels like many parts of the story got clumsily skipped over and a bunch of plotholes are just left behind. I did like the story for what it is but it makes me take it less seriously and takes some of my excitement away...

I bet Gjord kicked some sort of fuss to get that previous sorcerer out because they think the meds they gave the mc are making him lose memories or any of the other weird side effects that make him meek and compliant. I don't trust Lisbet's reaction to the new meds either. Seems sus as fuck. Though it is upsetting to think that this means she's being nice to him also partly out of guilt. Which makes Lister... a monster. This fuck basically is getting off on having all this power, probably because he had an inferiority complex before. Ugh makes me gag

A string of demotions and even a broken engagement with the prince. Knight Asha, once on close terms...

wtf is up with the random other manga who did thissssss

I think sometimes we don't realize that in most cultures we have pretty fucked up ideas about raising children, where they are easily seen as the potential to be "a person" instead of a person who is already "becoming", or as an extension of their parents, while the parent's word is often forcefully the equivalent of God's to them. How often do societies reward children for obeying versus learning to exercise their own critical judgement?

It's a rough relationship, yet honestly I can't say I don't know people who haven't been in Shima-kun's shoes. I am curious as to what happened between his mom being this control freak hellbent on making her child a successful star and the meek person she is now who looks terrified to do something to get on his bad side.

So, I've been watching the Solo Leveling anime adaptation and somehow even though the animation is fun and the battles are cool it feels so... vapid and irritating to me, and honestly kinda worrying about what this says about the future of shounen anime? Like, these power fantasy protagonists are so shallow and irritating. It's like someone took A......

it's disturbingly realistic, the depiction of abuse. It's not that the prick is upset that he's afraid of him, he's excited. His desire is all about power and manipulation, all fueled by his own fragile ego and inferiority complex. The fact that Sylvan is afraid of him just gave him more power to take his abuse further, yet giving himself as many excuses as needed for why what he's doing is not abuse.

Some people are so oblivious to their own vices that they turn like that the minute they learn they can get away with it. What makes it all the more tragic is how Lisbeth is so ignorant of it, only knowing his good side. Makes one sick, really. What I want to know is whether he basically is feeding him these meds that make him forget because he wanted him to forget his lover and it was all a ploy for him and his sister to take over. Ughhhhh soooo disturbinggg

WHO THE FUCK IS THIS NOW???

I don't understand something Alicia says to Oscar and then thinks to herself, if anyone who got it can enlighten me. The official chapter on Tappytoons says the same stuff so I don't get if it's a translation error.

When she asks why didn't he just force himself on Inez to test him by his response, she has what seems like a flashback? And she thinks to herself something like "he wouldn't have done what he did if he had loved her anyway" "no man would ever destroy a woman he loves like that".

I don't get if that scene is her memory (as in she was violated by oscar), a hypothesis she made, or her witnessing or knowing something else. At first I thought it was her imagining something, but it kinda looks more like a flashback, and her words don't make much sense. Or is she referring to the fact that he tried to kill Carcel? Doesn't she know Oscar's a psycho? I was thinking that there's a weird chance, she remembers their first life and remembers Inez's treatment..? Idk there's many possibilities and I can't tell if it's vague because of translation error or on purpose.

Oh my god this man is so delusional it's infuriating!! But from his comments about how her memory is "too good" I'm getting the feeling he as the heir has something to do with the time reversal every time she's died, and he definitely remembers something, if not everything from their previous lives. They basically are both pulling a long con separately from each other into the opposite goals during each life.

She's already faced this much desperation, if he thinks Inez is gonna act all cute and demure and accept her fate after all this shit he's deadly mistaken! Go off girl!!!

Also Alicia is basically the cookie cutter example of a woman tyrannized by a patriarchal society that decides to take her misfortune out on another woman. This man treats her like she's a piece of turd and she's acting as if she should be grateful. Girl wake up that man ain't shit...

...

Do you guys think maybe in her second life the crown prince manipulated her brother into killing her husband?

We know he was surprised she loathed him for it and that he's usually protective, even to the point of helping her potentially kill the Crown Prince in her first life despite how it'd cost him his life.

I am not buying he did a 180 and just found her being with a poor commoner gross or disgraceful and that was all it took. Just some thoughts..
