yea, he was a shitty person to his family and his team members, he doesn't have friends and stuff like that but he was also deep in depression and substance abuse. like when mc first woke up from his body,, it was literally after an OD attempt. mental wellbeing never excuses bad actions but it does provide some explanation.
Imagine if og ise was genuinely watching everything went down and he saw how someone can make do with his life so much better than he was able to adapt to it originally because that person was mentally well adjusted and was generally more matured bc mc was already well past the first start of adulthood and was already familiar with stardom bc of his previous celebrity chef life.
Who wouldn't be jealous? og ise was barely an adult, and he was lost with no guidance, hating himself from the depression and addiction, and he's witnessing that miserable life just suddenly being maneuvered around like it was nothing? Ise's one and only life he knew was devastating and this new guy (our mc) got to live 2 different fulfilling lives? (his own and ise's)? I'd crash the fuck out too bro.
I wish this'll take the direction where they'll talk it out and someone help og ise too.
cus every chapter is shorter and shorter, and the whole chapter was literally
leon walking into a room>getting hard remembering the bj he gave>masturbating
like damn,,,, that's all diva???
in the world of ABO, how are boundaries around genders set? like yk, the conversation of genders is a weird thing to divulge before the boombayah but isn't it like a safety hazard? like if this super famous artist is just sleeping around without actually confirming the partner's gender (and in this case, mc i the one who's concealing his gender) with someone who he doesn't know is on the pill or not, and can/can't possibly conceive? like is it weird that i think there's a conversation to have there? because it's not a question of gender identity, it's more so about honesty and consent
BRO THAT SHOT IS SO GOOD OML LIKE THE ART, THE ANATOMY, THE COLORS ARE IMMACULATE IN PRESENTING THE WHOLE VIBE OF THE SONG, IT'S LIKE I'M WATCHING AN MV
past me read this idk till what part and decided to rate it 4/5,,, I REREAD BC I'M FORGETFUL ASF AND IT'S ACTUALLY SO GOOD??? also, yes the father and imperial family is implicit in slavery of the homunculus but damn??? LITERALLY NO MANGWA I'VE READ, HAD A FATHER AS COMPETENT AS THIS WHO'S ALSO THE KING. His children ALL SEVENTEEN, had a chance and a try for ther throne, he meet with a group of them in rotations every morning to discuss life and their future plans, he makes sure all of them get education regardless of the status of their birth and genders , he ensures all of them understood sex Ed and so that none of them Will get trampled once he stepped down, and Their fight for the throne isn't as simple as "hoho I'll kill everyone but me so that I can have the throne" IT'S ACTUALLY CIVILIZED AND FAIR????
BRO LEGIT MOST MANHWA WITH ROYALE SETTINGS AREN'T ABLE TO EXECUTE A SET UP QUITE AS SOPHISTICATED AS THIS ONE. LEGIT .
man this whole story is smth, had me worried a lil when there's like geumryang hunter smth in the middle of it, but now it ended so fluffy. Hopefully author starts sharing more of their stories bc their art is great
mc highkey parasocial ass stalker... like wth is going on man, you can't just act normal and treat ml like every other human being you've interacted with?? sure author portrays ml as nonchalant abt the whole thing, but it's really weird behaviour tbh. just bc a stalker isn't doing extremely creepy stuff and he's cute and meek, doesn't negate the fact that he's a stalker and is definitely parasocial asf.
"it's just silly fan x his idol story guys" yea it's nice that you can just not see the weird behaviour, doesn't mean it's not weird....
this isbthe kinda story where at the end, you're supposed to be like "everyone makes bad choices and mistakes sometimes, but ultimately they're all trying their best"
BUT objectively speaking, Squall, and his dad is THE Ultimate villain and most of the other character's sins are all quite literally incomparable to the amount of damage these two have cause for others. The father, for his sins of malice, he literally caused everything, and Squall for his ultimate cowardice and inaction which enabled all of it to happen and worsen.
Like don't get me wrong, Fl is annoying asf to me at the start, esp in the real world's current social climate. but Her ultimate sin was being born and living the aristocratic life, which we have been shown, EVERY OTHER ARISTOCRAT WAS DOING THE SAME THING.
like if hating on the rich and privileged is a competition, I'd be gunning for gold. but literally every other character's actions and chain reaction were all caused by what yhe Squalls chose.
i too, would love to have a story where things are so bad but it was equally caused, this just isn't that. it's a story about how 2 extremely selfish people ruined literally 2nations worth of people's lives.
Uina go get fucking warded bruh.
Taisei you shitfuck YOU DON'T NEED TO ALWAYS BE DEPENDANT ON A RELATIONSHIP BRO. LIVE YOUR LIFE AND STOP FORGIVING PEOPLE WHEN IT'S NOT EVEN YOUR PLACE TO DO SO. UINA SHOULD BE SENT INTO A PHYCWARD, NOT BE CODDLED AND LOVED.
Glad mc and ml got their happy ending tho I wish they'd report uina to the fucking cops
AFTER YOU KILLED DEREK, YOU HAD YEARS. YEARS TO THINK AND REFLECT ON WHAT YOU DID. HOW STUPID WAS IT OF YOU TO TAKE A LIFE SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU'RE INSECURE YOU COULDN'T CONTROL IT. but no.... you never thought what you did was wrong, you didn't reflect on anything, DIDN'T EVEN TRY. disgusting bastard i hope people hunted your ass again bro fuck you
then i read through the unfolding drama and cringe bc damn this feels like it's gonna get messy
Nekota no Koto ga Ki ni Natte Shikatanai
GENUINELY SUCH A GOOD STORY, and this story also seems so interesting and wholesome
some of yall actually needs therapy bro cus why.... if only their interactions and like the way they behaved were explained more instead of leaning this hard on "edgy psycho menhera-chan", thingy man, i get what the author's going for but damn yall are adults this is embarrassing actually
