I really love his chemistry with the mc I wish he was the ml but he looks too perfect I hope the author doesn't plan to make him go back to his ex girlfriend because he still has feelings for her
It's okay if he doesn't love the ml but why is he bringing again og fl the girl ml is supposed to end with like he could still end up with her ?
He saw with his own eyes that she is also possessed by a transmigrator just like him and she is not the original woman the ml falls in love with so it doesn't make sense for him to continue to bring up the girl like she was supposed to end up happy with the ml, it's just not the same girl, give up this idea
Like I get the "trying to act like in the og novel" trope but it doesn't work in that story because he is not the only one who transmigrated and it's like he just forgot it
I go back to this chapter every time I need to let go of my frustration
Just to be clear I in no word condone Jinhyeong's actions but it was dealt really well and not just glossed over
YES his dick 100% deserved to be hurt for a bit I know that violence is supposed to not be the answer but it was NECESSARY for him to understand how wrong his actions were and that no one should be the victim of your frustration especially in that way, I'm happy such action doesn't happen again after that
"I... I seriously want to become nothing more than his personal toilet!"
And it's not even dirty language it's literal
Poor Haruki being constantly abused just for the sake of the plot wake up one morning and then realize that he is just the doomed uke of a bl violent story, decides to move away from everyone and open his own restaurant, he then falls in love either with the ml, or a kind guy (and in that case the ml becomes the obsessed villain), anyway happy ending
Yeah I just made up a completly different story, sorry I've got carried away by my imagination it's just so obvious in that story that he is fated to be attacked by everyone that I so want him to be free of the author's sadistic plan
I know who he is after seeing the spoilers but I like the idea that there is a random Abel-like man running into the world ready to come to the rescue of poor souls in danger (⌒▽⌒)
I saw no spoilers and man that was such a fucking whiplash hahahahaha xD AND ML JUST ACCEPTS AN UNKNOWN DRUG FROM A STRANGER?!?!? Ik he's desperate but damn!!! XD
If you look at the big picture and not just the soulmate thing we got a combo of really annoying elements :
- a disturbing age Gap that is not adressed because they are soulmates you know
- a misogynistic setting (in an omegaverse way) which is seen in the different characters dynamics (docile innocent uke/Powerful seme)
- a seme who never explains anything, who makes the uke insecure all the time (+ too old for him damn). He is just here to save the day when uke is attacked, what a man (he assault him too but well nobody is perfect) ! Annoying guy if you want to lock uke in your house which is a stupid idea btw, at least do not let your mother have access to the house
- an incredibly innocent uke who never learns from his mistakes : just to clarify he is not to blame for being attacked but after a few times we could wish he become a bit more careful PLEASE WAKE UP you scare me EVERY chapter. And why does he seem so lost, I get that he become an omega but he was a capable guy in the first chapter, why does he look this unfit to be in the aristocratic world while his parents are also originally quite rich, didn't he live in this world ? By the way the parents are total jokes to let their son go with a man they don't know like that they don't deserve to be called parents.
+ accept to come back with seme after being assaulted or going back to your best friend like you had forgot he also assaulted you I don't really know which one is the saddest, this boy needs a psy more than a lover. I see he is traumatized but I want to slap him every chapter to wake this poor delusional soul, thank god he seems to find a bit of confidence in the last chapters because despite his frustrating sides he is a victim of others and deserves to be happy
- every side characters either hate mc or want his body
- attempted assault (multiple this by 10)
We even got the mother in law giving money to stay away from her son, the cliche are clicheeing
I don't usually critic a story like that but this one got me annoyed more than others because it just adds these elements one after the other
Well omegaverse is literally a world that was made up the replicate the good old time when women were proporties.
So thats what we get in most omegaverse story.
Omegaverse could be made with omega pheromones less potent, them not having heats, and the bonding only working when both wants it and affecting both of them. But no artist change this because they fantasize of a setting the the women(uke) are at the mercy of their man.
Omegaverse started as a trope in the Supernatural fandom back in like 2010.
It has since been tailored to fit a more accurate role of portraying men put more closely in situations a lot of women see themselves in. In more lighthearted series it is used more as a way for trans folk to see themselves.
The reason why ya'll see "this is just misogyny" is 'cause that is the whole purpose. Yaoi, more recently known as BL, started as a means for opressed women to vent either their frustrations with men or their repressed sexual fantasies in a way they felt safer in. Most of you baby fujos don't know this 'cause ya'll can't take the time to research anything. Instead, you make misogynistic remarks, claim that two men having super gay buttsex is "heternormative" AND use TERF rhetoric to do so.
Whether you do this knowingly or not is beside the point. You're free to critique whatever you want, but at least learn what it means to critique something and not just stupidly bash it.
I don't know who you're so angry at really. Did I perhaps criticize the entire omegaverse genre without knowing it ?
No I gave my opinion on one story which happen to be set in the omegaverse world so it didn't require me to do an essay about the genre did it ? Thanks for the whole history about it though, but as you say yourself the genre 'has since been tailored to fit a more accurate role of portraying men put more closely in situations a lot of women see themselves in.' so it DOES shows a misogynistic world on purpose and obviously some people will like it and some won't depending on the story
Plus as I said it's the addition of elements that really made me not like the story if there was just the omegaverse I wouldn't be so put off but apparently the rest of my post wasn't interesting for you so you picked one line
But thanks for your kind comment, I will continue to "bash stories" since it's what it is to you and you're free to judge us baby fujos from above since apparently we tell a lot of bs
Yeah I get it fits the genre well, it's just really obvious in that story imo, and the age gap brings another dimension of manipulation which is why the story is so borderline to me even if it's made on purpose
it sure would be nice to have a story with mutual bonding, and binding happening only when both want it, I've never read one
I love that there is not 1% romantic tension between them they just fight for the sake of annoying the other (Hestia especially) I hope it will stay that way this story doesn't need a 2nd ml especially considering Helios and Cael past issues
I mean we've already seen Helios admit his attraction towards Hestia and his jealousy towards Cael for having such an amazing wife, even promising to himself that he wouldn't repeat what happened before (them competing for a lover) so Helios is definitely attracted to Hestia but it's completely one sided.
On the other hand Hestia feels nothing but anger, annoyance and disgust towards Helios and Diana. She admits they're good looking but that's it.
Yeah now that you say it it has been a while since I've read the story so I kinda forgot about Helios develoment in the last chapters. I remember finding it forced, I really enjoyed it most when he didn't have such feelings
Also it may be an unpopular opinion but I don't think he has any real romantic feeling for her, a bit of attraction as you say but that's all.
it's quite ambiguous but to me he is jealous that his friend has a capable wife while he has to take care of all the troubles that Diana caused, basically he wishes for a supportive wife that he associates with Hestia but I don't think he really likes her as a person
I've been re reading the story and their evolution is just incredible, they started as cliches villains at first but they really aknowledge their mistakes and grow through the story and it's so nice when the mc is not the only one to have character development
