ReviewRaptor's manga / #DISLIKABLE MC(4)

Oh look, it's a narcissistic asshole as an MC! Would you look at the time, it's "I have no time for this bullshit" o'clock! GOTTA GO! :D Check the story out for yourselves, if you are not bothered by the MC as much as I am. But I will full on skip this and will not recommend simply because of the very introduction of the MC. And here's why: Yeah no, sorry. This is off to an utterly obnoxious start. You tell your sob story (which was CLEARLY made to create empathy for the MC) and when someone else is leaving the place to go crying ALONE outside and you just follow and pester them with questions, you feel rightful in being annoyed if your questions don't get answered? What a massive cunt you are. Instead of showing empathy and trying to comfort the person, you have the audacity to get annyoed because you don't get an answer from someone that's drunk and went outside to be ALONE and is crying heavily? Gimme a break. If the author thought this MC is endearing or can be a self instert for anyone other than a huge narcissist, then they failed their job miserably. A main character is supposed to be interesting and create SOME form of urge to read the story. This one? He's such a jackass that I honestly don't care if his love went south and I have ZERO interest in seeing him find a new love if THIS is his introduction. I grew up with a toxic, narcissist as a mother. This type of character is NOT endearing or in any way, shape or form something I'd want to read about. If at least he had seemed to be a LITTLE worried or instead of being angry (because he's so self-centered) he had just stopped bothering the guy and went off silently with a look that suggests anything BUT what was chosen by the author, I'd have kept reading. But not like this. And for any younger readers who just don't get what I mean: The start of a story and how characters are introduced is CRUCIAL to having your story read. If your story's MAIN CHARACTER is such an asshole that people who cannot identify with jackasses like him end up skipping your entire work, you might wanna try a more neutral approach. This is not about 'wanting it mY wAy' despite it not being my work, this is genuine advice for good story writing. Because people will simply NOT waste time on your work if they have a big reason to switch to something else within less than a minute. That's just how it is. (If the title was 'A Narcissists Form Of Sympathy' I'd have been fine with it since there was a clear warning. But we got a sob story that was about 'oh woe me' and when someone ELSE is off even worse than the MC he gets pissed because he doesn't get what he wants? I.E. a reaction to his questions? That's just an unappealing character, unless you can self-insert because you yourself are like that. Which most people aren't, by the way...) Could the story be good after that? Sure, maybe. But I for one will not bother reading something, HOPING the MC will suddenly not be a dislikable jackass. I have better things to do than that. 0 outta 10 - The art is mid-range and the MC is utterly dislikable. You do you. I got no time for this.

The plot basically boils down to: Man is at fault for woman not opening her fvcking mouth and saying wtf is bothering her. This is SO fvcking annoying, I swear. This is the type of female logic people need to abandon and men need to run away from. Even if the guy makes mistakes, he's NOT a mindreader. You can't blame him for you not telling what's up. FFS this is obnoxious. Hard drop, no recommend.

I honestly HATE characters like her. Just because your previous life was bad due to simple miscommunication does NOT make you perfectly fine to act like a bitch towards people when you regress, for things that did not happen. The author of this is pretending it's ok by throwing in some random cutesy chibi funny haha panels, but that does NOT overshadow/erase her shitty behavior. Mind you, she keeps insulting her husband who hasn't done anything except be bad at communication in this forced marriage, simply because in her PREVIOUS LIFE they were shitty at communicating. BOTH OF THEM, not just HIM. I hate characters like her and authors like these. You can tell it's a female-written story so easily and one of a female that thinks she's always right and she cannot be wrong about anything. This might turn out a nicer story but I honestly do not care. She's a shitty MC in terms of personality and I'll definitely not bother forcing myself to keep reading more than the first few chapters. She's obnoxious and a weirdo in so many ways. Not recommended for anyone that likes normal people as MCs.
