agreed lol! it doesn’t seem like a story that will make me feel deep emotions if that makes sense? but it’s still cute
It really is meant for a light read, the type you can turn off your brain for
Yeah, I get that it's meant to be a light read, but I don't think that's necessarily what I'm criticizing. Even in a straightforward story, characters can have distinct personalities, believable reactions, and natural dialogue. Jackjack is a good example, and honestly, most of the characters have this issue. There's just something about the writing that feels amateurish, almost like some characters have inconsistent personalities depending on what the scene needs.
The story is good, and I really love both the plot and the art, but something about the writing feels a little amateurish? I can't tell if it's the author or the translation, but it sometimes reads like something written by a relatively inexperienced writer. There are scenes where the characters make decisions or react in ways that feel so obvious or questionable that it gets a little frustrating.
I can't quite pinpoint what it is, either. Maybe it's the dialogue and character interactions? Or the way the characters behave? Sometimes it feels like they all react in more or less the same way, as if they lack distinct personalities or there's not enough depth to their characterization. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it properly, but despite all that, I genuinely love the story and the art.
