moody_bish's manga / #female lead(5)

There's really nothing wrong with Mizuro's indecisiveness here. Her intentions change with her environment yet all the same grounded with what she can do. She wanted to go home because she thought her time ran parallel with earth. Hence, she wanted to be an adventurer and learn how to adapt while also trying to leave. However, her attachment and the knowledge that she could return in peace, gave her the resolute to make use of her power to be helpful in the society and class she was in. Even with the demon king, she wasn't rash with her decisions. Independent women doesn't mean being separate with men, it means being true to yourself and capable of deciding for yourself. Besides, it's insensitive to think that just because female leads become somewhat reliant to men or are woo-ed by men, they are not strong anymore. And what's wrong with being girly? Female femininity is almost always looked down on but it empowers delicate kindness and maternal-like instincts to be gentle and empathic. im starting to think that female masculinity has become the stereotypical 'strong and independent women', but it only further imposes the narrative that women should be more like men to be considered independent or powerful.

Discriminated by her own family, Ivy chooses to runaway and be an adventurer despite having weak magic. However, as if fate, she is only able to tame a "broken" slime that couldve easily died. Henceforth, she travels with her new friend, Sora. 17.2 updates are very slow but im glad it is still updating

more wholesome than i prepped myself for. I was on the edge with how she tries to dip into the characters, quite different from the classic "runaway". she does her best to help them stray from whatever triggered their twistedness upon realizing the innocence they could have. Plus the characters are people, different from the 2D experience of game avatars. This, of course, is common but the story goes on to add more spice. (and omg, im just so happy that it's like a restrained yandere instead of a romanticized yandere)

As if the plot isn't complicated enough, we just had to have a clueless main character who doesn't match the energy of other people as well as overcomplicating her ways, conveniently instilling misunderstanding and 'overthinking' from the people that matters. I couldn't read past ch10.

Im annoyed that everything is "it's okay" when they apologize or excuse themselves. It's great thst the male lead makes them accountable, but the MC annoys me with her soft approaches. Instead of saying she cares, it's more like she doesn't until someone gets hurt because she's linient. I'm also annoyed that despite having a fiance, she still lets herself be cuddled by other men. Their animal forms are just bait and yet she's upset that he's jealous? Suddenly, I look forward to the third girl to upset her more. But I bet she's just going to be "kind" anyway
