only the queen is tortured?? what about the maid??
they all look the same why r there so many damn blondes
it's all one incest domino?!
so basically, seizou (touma heir) and his sister hanae engage in incest and give birth to ranzou (eldest son). ranzou, while growing up, is ridiculed because people believed he's illegitimate since hanae never exposed who the father was. seizou marries mitsue, hanae's best friend. mitsue 'adopts' ranzou and gives birth to ikuro (second son) soon after. then hanae dies but not before revealing to mitsue that she seduced her own brother, mitsue's husband, so ranzou is actually their sibling-lovechild. mitsue then starts seeing ranzou in a different light and chokes him, depriving his young brain of oxygen, and ultimately leading him mentally handicapped(?). plus, i'm assuming the incest had already made him cognitively dependent so the choking was just the cherry.
after hanae's death, seizou because a psycho freak and starts grxping ranzou while thinking of hanae. he also starts isolating ranzou, allowing him human interaction only when he visits him. on the other hand, mitsue who goes crazy depressed is sexually and manipulated by norihiko, a young servant who also does the same to her son ikuro as the years go by, and especially following her death. after seizou's death, ranzou is able to go out more often (still accompanied) but at his late-20s he's too far gone.
at the end ranzou's been unfairly treated by everyone since he was a toddler. and even ikuro has no clue of how much his older brother has had to deal with. possibly, only norihiko may know (to an extent) of everything that happened???
you can see the small transition from baby midori crawling towards hayato then hayato trying to stop her from eating a doll
ik he's being controlled by the author but i feel like even without the manipulation he could easily be a self-absorbed brat who had everything handed to him. like- his entire face screams superiority complex. the type of guy who think he can treat people like crap (internally mysoginistic) cause he thinks hes better than them
i have a feeling ken may be having regrets after seeing his dad's lover with kirara. i genuinely hope he is cause its the new years; another year of being estranged from his own father
bro i really like the story but imagine giving birth to a dog fsr i assumed he'd transform to a human then back and forth. im probably thinking of a different manga rn lmao
its so adorable how taka's bum conveniently fits on hayato's palm when he carries him

lmao the fact that is took 3 seasons and almost 100 chapters just to reach surface-level progress of their relationship
and here i thought i finally found a shoujo with a good plot. this is such a fcking overused trope its awful
im at chap 119 and i already know all the taran sht but the monologue is making me question what i know cause i dont get it can someone explain
as someone who's read manga since grade school im naturally drawn to nostalgic old-looking art styles so the cover intrigued me. but i often forget the plot for old manga like this is most likely crappy as well :)))
i forgot what happened in the novel but apparently she did love ines??? idfk both her parents are shit; her mother for being a whiny ass btch and her dad for letting her be a whiny ass btch i cant even rn
wtf was he expecting treating dan like a fleshlight all this damn time
im at chapter 7 and alice is so fcking selfish will she stay this way throughout??
this is gonna be a turning point for minato's attitude. although im sure it wont manifest immediately considering how young he is, he's definitely learning to be less selfish as shown when he gave his favorite toy to hazuki
the storyline seemed so conventional and even creepy at first. i seriously started to believe this would end up like any other josei fantasy mangas where its all sex just not in a modern setting. but the way the author lay the flashbacks and everything he went through its almost too painful to imagine. what a great story i cant wait for more updates
