Barbarities
Hedonistic SIMP x workaholic I love besotten men. HEAVY emphasis on political drama over romance. Still love it though. Can't wait for the next volume. Update: It’s good! Confusing at times, but good! Not sure about some sub-plots, and there’s a few things I’m iffy about, but overall, it’s really nice. --- Now finished. [ Workaholic and ambitious x Flirty and committed ] — Like a ‘lord’ and his ‘knight’ A little misses here and there, but I’m here for the societal plot. I’m here for the intricate costumes. And I am here for besotted men. I love their dynamic, how MC is trying to Keep Shit Together, but ML’s fooling around. At the same time, ML ain’t just a hoe; his devotion to MC gets him take working duties seriously, which I love. I love m

VERY SOLID. Love both the MC and ML, and even the supporting cast! It’s essentially the trope where someone switches places with an alternate version of themself and has to deal with their new surroundings. In the first world, the ML is besotted with him; in the second, he never really knew him. It’s all tied to this one key scene, and how the author utilized it was really well done. It felt like things were slightly rushed, and I emphasize highly on the “slightly”, but it was good. If there was a thing I didn’t like, it would be the choice guy for alternate!ML. We only met him for a relatively short time and didn’t get the feeling of much chemistry. Besides that, it was great.

Interesting. Childhood friends get together, even though the love's unrequited. Pushing and prodding from the one with unrequited feelings leads into...something else, pertaining to the other guy---psychological trauma, Oedipus Complex-esque. It's a strange back-and-forth; things progress, but their feelings remain about the same. Feels like we're watching two sides, waiting for the moment where one of them collapses into the other. I liked the side dude. He reminds me of another character, but he's still interesting. --- Notes for myself below. - No sexual urges. First-glance, Problematic asexuality trope => Oedipus Problem(?) => Sex Repression/Repulsion
