like i'm not saying it makes the plot good or unique in any way nor does it make the ML less shitty... it's still pretty meh and i'm 100% expecting the 'redemption' arc to be unsatisfying as hell. but amnesia arcs in BL are as old as time; there's always a pattern and it's the prologue for the groveling arc once MC recovers his memories 90% of the time. there's even several extremely obvious context clues that MC is starting to recall his memories.
despite that i see a lot of comments that gripe as if amnesiac bottom is endgame and they'll ride off into the sunset with this huge glaring plot point uncovered, the end. i can't tell if it's just really young readers or this is, idk, their first time reading BL manhua or encountering this trope in ANY book ever... but i worry for the declining reading comprehension and context analysis here.
