I would KILL to see him end up with his original fated lover... fuck the toxic ML, it'd be SO REFRESHING to see a story about the MC moving on and finding happiness without choosing to be with the one who caused them suffering. UggghhhhHHHHH
Bro, but at least you can't say low tide's seme didn't fight to get his boy back. Hardly ever have I seen a toxic seme repent that hard and the uke resists his share too.
Yessssss he actually came to realize his mistakes and made up for them, I feel like... there shouldn't be an option for that in this case tho. Like he literally fucked up the MCs life and continued toying with him /:
Yeah, this one doesn't look redeemable by how it's going. I fear too many stories just end it with the uke forgiving the abusing top and moving on without them paying for it. It pisses me off.
Ikr, I'd just really love to see a different narrative. Redeeming the toxic partner is too common, I can't wait for someone to finally give us a story about recovery. Even more so if we see the trauma, suffering, abuse, and our MC learn to move on and find happiness and health with or without another partner T^T
Sad knowing we prolly won't get anything of the sort in the near future
I can't even think of a story where they actually stay with the non-toxic second lead lol
there's this one manga i read called "End of the World with You",, that's all i'm going to say,, please read it
the secondary trope where they nerf the second ML to make the first one look better...
this happens over and over and over again. biggest parallel i can pull out of my ass is mingwa's bls and the low tide. ML is an irredeemable asshat that fucks the MC senseless. MC develops feelings. MC confesses and ML is disgusted. ML realizes that he fucked up and tries to win MC back. MC forgives him in like 3 panels of groveling. back to sex and yada yada. i hope that the author is honest in saying that eunsan will be groveling and begging to be forgiven. the plot is interesting, i'll give it that, but i swear if it's going to be another story where the ML apologizes for 5 minutes and everything is honky dory, i'm gonna flip out. it sucks when the have no actual repercussions and let the ML do what he wants, whenever he wants.
