romance plots that don't make me feel like my colon has been crocheted into a fucking noose for me to choke on

nah this entire thing is such a shitshow like everyone's a clown and the tired managers/underpaid babysitters (OF BOTH MCs LOL) are the fucking ringleaders of this sad circusry.

i have an insane soft spot for this one. for one, this is fucking hilarious. like bruh every nonsensical and INSANELY inconvenient issue that they're forced into is a randomized scenario from a reality TV show segment. 2nd i LOVE both MCs. meri is a straight ANNOYING BITCH but she's weirdly not entitled? and ML is a genuinely good guy who underestimates her (for good reason tbh) and i LOVE the trope of ppl slowly realizing MC is more complicated than they appear. their dynamic is also

it's kinda less romance-focused, and moreso focused on interpersonal relationships and dynamics MC has with people of her present life, but also very interestingly enough, people of her past life. i'm more curious about how her past will play into things now. BUT the romance itself is chill. i honestly dont remember it LOL but i DO like this plot and it IS romance based and MC is such a bitch at times, but it's way more interesting how she is one and she faces consequences and gro

i'm actually convinced i brainlessly absorb this without actually thinking it's good. like i ALWAYS read up to chapter 116, i never go ahead past that, and i'm convinced it's a combination of just exhaustingly indecipherable TL + my lack of attachment to either of the characters. i just like the plot, cleverness, and general lack of annoyance of the two MCs enough to constantly reread this every six months. also i like how ML has a valid reason for disliking MC at the beginning- politics r crazy

it's just so calm. like. episodic chapters of two people living on an animal crossing island

ive actually only read up to chapter 47 three years ago, so i dont remember lots of this, but i DO remember how this felt like a horrible sped-up countdown to doomsday with a ton of collected yet random moving parts that worked in sync, and i was REALLY impressed by the utter insanity this posed.

only read to chapter 6 but both characters have me by my THROAT

omg i remember reading this in middle school bc my friend rec'd it. i actually will not be rereading this, and i honestly don't have a huge attachment to it, but it's very sentimental to me bc of my relationship with my friend + how this influenced me to give myself multiple cartilage piercings with a safety pin in hs

nah u dont get it, misunderstandings are such ASS like i HATE them but this is genuinely so hilarious?? and the other romantic misunderstandings (like FL interacting with other dudes) are just HILARIOUS bc the other party involved have zero romantic ties to her, and it's just a fucking mess of absurdism??? also the ML kinda gets on my nerves when he's being petty but he's a genuinely like? funny dude as well like WHO RESPONDS THE WAY HE DOES TO THIS SHIT LOL

(15) no but i really didn't expect this to be such a wholesome, feel-good comedy. no weird love-triangles, no weird misunderstandings, the "love rival" FL is SUPERRR funny, and there's no backtrack of previously disinterested ML. rather he + MC are just good friends. IT'S SO GOOOOOOD IT'S SO FUNNY LOL
