c20. tf with him getting away with it—besides that, the whole thing is wholesome and adorable. I love how pleasantly amiable and patient souta is. there's also this message being sent that one doesnt need to force having a child if you know you can't handle parenting. you don't have to be married if you know you won't prioritize your marriage. parenting isn't limited to blood relation... and a village does raise a child because then poco gets to learn from everyone. this doesnt show much of the stereotypic and traditional family structure. u could think of poco as an orphan, or even souta as a single parent. it all boils down to one's ability to be responsible and accountable for the relationship you foster with others: as a parent, a friend, a spouse, or even as a doctor.

i felt a needle poking my hearttt ahhhh

i mean, the disappearance of the mom. the way his supposed caretakers treat him roughly and had him get thru a kidnapping to test the guy? like WHAT? useless angst is all. i feel bad for yuki, always played around by sadistic pricks who, plotwist, actually love him very much

I really like Marilyn because of hew straightforwardness and confrontative personality. I was concerned by the trope at first but the author is so good at adding refreshing scenes that arent normally addressed in other stories. It's a balance of mind games, miscommunication, and blunt scenarios. Like, Sibel is a major red flag, but it's being addressed in this seemingly natural transition from love to hate, twisting "youre the first girl who did this to me, and "i can fix him". These trope are very apparent, but the execution is so refreshing and interesting.

Dropped at 103-- spoilers It just keeps going and going and going with the "detective cases" and maybe its the changing translations but nothing is making much sense the more we go (contrary to the first cases). Also, if she's going to have a skill that changes face, i wish it was more obvious and defined coz huh? Its her breasts that show more of her current gender than the face changing skill. And sometimes i dont get the feeling that she came from the cave, which im glad she is aware of her carelessness but who the hell grabs a living silkworm with their injured arm and think she can do shit? And is her face changing skills so limited that she only ever choose her real face during missions? (Its a convenient romance plot but its annoying esp when a skilled human skin user does it better than her but wishes to get her skill coz it's "perfect". I also dont get why she keeps playing this pull and push, it stopped making sense after the first night) and im not so interested anymore to keep reading after a hundred chapters coz of how incoherent it is becoming.

It was refreshing to witness a love story where both couples are naive and are devoted to trust each other. It was literally an "Us against the world" story. Despite the fact that the overall atmosphere feels like those slice of life anime with cicadas in summer's heat contrasting the really dark themes of murder and suicides...

Diligent yet never catching a break, Jaegun found his luck after cleaning after a burial mound. Bringing home a cat named Rika and equipped with old tools by an unpublished novelist, he gains more experience as a writer and as a person. More so when his career slowly unravels the man buried in the mound.

I just find our little hero so pitiful. But well, he had a happy...future imposed on him? Well, not by his lover (kinda, but pretty privilege).
