I had this same thought, it's too bad Dan is too helpless/hopeless to realize this smh
you guys say that like he said that for dan’s good, when in fact he’s just pissed off he’s been thrown away. yeah what he says makes sense but that doesn’t mean he isn’t a piece of trash lmao
The ex is definitely a piece of shit, but uh them assumptions are probably true, except it'll be different for dan because he's the mc. As per usual.
You’re wrong, he is saying it for Dan’s own good because he has been in Dan’s situation before. Also there’s nothing that makes him a piece of trash even if he is pissed (which he has every right to be anyhow). The way you’re talking about the ex is the same way many victims of domestic violence villainise the ex as the “crazy ex” for warning them that their partner would abuse them.
oh he’s definitely right about JK !
he’s not, he was literally fumbling. he was just trying to piss off dan, not help him in any way. you’re delusional. and I never said he was crazy lmao don’t get where you found that, that’s something horrible to tell someone, especially when I said that he was right but he just wasn’t saying it for the right reasons.
Yes, that's how the story is framing him. That's why I said that in any other piece of media he'd be a positive influence but in this one he is villainized because he is supposed to be the petty cRAzy eX even though what he is saying is objectively true and usually would be said by somebody out of concern rather than pettiness...
What I'm saying is: Him being framed as the crazy ex who is pissed at Dan doesn't work at all, most people in the comments are legit rooting for him lol
or maybe the author wasn’t trying to villainize him at all lmao, he has a great pont
The way the shading, bg, expression, etc. were drawn really makes it seem that way tho
Why is the story trying so hard to villainize the ex like, he is right. In any other better written story he'd have been a positive influence to the mc but here it's framed like he's Satan incarnate for daring to think that JK is and asshole (which is true) and would throw Dan away in a heartbeat (which is also not a wrong assumption to make given JK's track record) but oh no he is so much worse than JK for daring to leech off of him.... a rich pro wrestler who got everything and doesn't gaf abt being leeched off of anyways...?
