shitcory's manga / #Comedy(65)

So, first of all, this story (as of 14 ch) is adorable and I highly recommend it. The MC acts like an actual child (because she is), and the little more awareness she has is thanks to the system, and it makes sense! Despite the intelligence buff (how I understood it), MC still mostly thinks and acts like an actual child. It's adorable. Secondly, wow, the person complaining about the childcare genre really is... something. In some ways, I can see their point, but the way they wrote everything makes it almost sound like bitter ranting and nothing else. There's nothing wrong to be a single parent, even if via adoption (although I am aware that two good parents for a child is better than one good parent, realistically), but at the same time, this series will likely give MC multiple caregivers AKA parental/familial figure, given the system's options for primary and multiple seconfdary caregivers. It's fine if you don't like the genre, but it's weird af to see you write such things on such a wholesome story. I don't deny the genre has issues, but for god's sake, one of the biggest purposes of these stories is usually to be healing and give comfort to readers, or at least warm their hearts. Even if they're not aware of it/it's not talked about. In some ways, you could call it fantasising, but I'm sure many of us who like the genre also come from shittier families/family relationships, and find found family comforting. Which reminds me, they also commented about MC not being blood-related at all... as if that matters? Like again found family is a thing, family is not defined by blood relations only. I get the annoyance with the constant single dad w/ daughter (mc) trope, but imo if you think/look a bit more into the cultural bg of the authors, you remember they're from South Korea - which is infamously misogynistic, even today. I'm sure it's not the intention of all authors, but the trend of a father adoring his daughter (even when he has sons) start to make a bit more sense when you think about it from this perspective. Just as a disclaimer, I'm not Korean, this is just based on what I know of it via the internet, so I could be totally wrong on this theory. Still, I don't think the idea is too out there.
