Simply frustrating bc of the excessive blushing, immaturity and lack of common sense. FL is not a person, she's a caricature whose only ambition is to hate herself and think about her crush. It's incredibly boring and one-dimensional. Every single character is there to feed into their shallow relationship, and has no life of their own; worst of all, they don't actually have any chemistry.

Had personality, charm, drama and a lot of highs, but when the lows hit, they hit hard. ML is a manipulative, gasslighting abuser, and FL is a stupid Mary Sue. Their high school drama was, while somewhat relatable, dramatised to the point of tomfoolery and assault to the eyes. So much happened, the characters changed and matured with the series, yet everyone remained just as unlikable. You definitely won't be bored, but entirely aggravated.

Definitely not as bad as the other stories, but to keep things brief — she doesn't end up with the guy you want. This is very clear from the first chapter yet you will find yourself falling for the second male lead over and over, and wishing for them to somehow end up together. They don't, and you have just wasted hours of your life reading about two characters with no personality fall in love while rejecting the only interesting person.

Romanticises physical and emotional abuse, gasslighting, rape threats, rape, violence against women, misogyny, etc. Honestly, at this point it's easier to count the trigger warnings excluded, rather than those included. This whole manga is just a huge mess that unjustly holds the victims accountable for the wrongdoings of the perpetrators. Thoroughly disgusting and horrifically disturbing.

No, it's not normal to servely hate your girlfriends, guys. Just break up. This story romanticises abuse in a way I have never seen before — not once is it even brought up how awful he treats her and not once does he apologise or receive any sort of punishment. It's honestly disheartening how normalised it is for this sort of behavior to be portrayed in children's media. You will be left angry, dissatisfied and disappointed.

700 chapters of a dude imagining his classmate naked. 700 chapters of her being able to read his thoughts and loving it. Way too much text, way too bland to look at, way too long. It does have lovable moments and it's honestly fairly comical, but it is so not worth the amount of time you'll spend reading it; plus, after the 400th chapter it tends to get a bit repetitive.

Awful, awful representation of schizophrenia. Villainises the person and the disorder, and makes it seem as though people with schizophrenia are porn-addicted maniacs dreaming of murder. Spare yourself the nerves and stress, and avoid this. As a society, we collectively need to stop allowing for and supporting the creation of stories slandering mental health conditions. This doesn't help anyone, only facilitates hate and stigma towards innocent people.

There's no other way of describing this but as a weird form of CP. MC doesn't just resemble, but looks and acts exactly like a child. He cannot be excused as a 'twink omega' because despite everything, most other stories at least draw their MCs as young adults, this one is anything but. It's disgusting and pedophilic, and honestly impossible to focus on the story when it looks like a grown man & a kid are having sex.
