Lili's Topics (20)

She's physically weak and mentally strong. it takes a lot of courage to let go of someone you trusted and has given you a safe place(Not really a safe place) but a place better than her previous. And in her position, she's powerless. Her step-brother is a psychopath and traumatized her, her elder brother betrayed her, and her husband betrayed her. No one in that household likes her, and she rarely goes outside as well. She's been isolated and neglected. I'm proud of her for realizing that nothing's gonna change if she doesn't do it herself. I like this story, and I'd say the only thing i'm confused on is whether she remembers if she's in a novel story or not, or maybe she knows but is too immersed into the world.

Regarding the novel part, we have to remember that she didn't come into this world remembering that fact. She only remembered that after her mother had already passed away, and after she had lived as Ciella for many years. Even after she remembered, nothing really changed, and this was the life she lived. To her, this is reality, and not just a world inside a novel.
We also saw earlier that the derails she remembered from the novels were getting hazy, and how she has seen many things that were never mentioned in the novel --> even more of a gap between "world of a novel" and "reality".

I can understand why a lot of characters would rationalise them being in a world of a novel (= not real) as a way of rationalizing their fate/as a defense mechanism for potential bad thoughts/feelings to think it isn't real, but personally I'd consider those novels as just glimpses into another world, not that that world was fictional (especially if I was living in it). Her treating this as her real life and forgetting mostly about the novel makes sense, since it is her life. She decided to leave her past behind, and that includes characters that are part of the novel.


We also don't know if she remembered her whole past life or only the contents of the novel. It seems like it would be the latter imo, which would also explain the way she is.

what a poor reader and sick bastard you are, this isnt your typical royal magic manhwa, and its actually a good read, and you calling the story problematic? its literally talking about the mcs trauma and her trying to overcome it despite her bleak situation and youre calling this problematic wow what a shitshow you are

and you fucking read fetishized BL, but call this story problematic? get a fucking life dog i read BL too but at least im sane and can differentiate between a good story and pure porn

What I mean by problematic is because Mc have many problems, reading comprehension please, thats why I said I dont know too if shes weak or what

Bruh don't be a hypocrite you also read fetishized BL

Bruh you're the only one who don't fucking get it, get a life too and don't fucking shit with my opinion lol

Like why do you even insert what I read in this 'specific' topic, you're brainless fr, your Username is so lame too lol

If by problematic you meant "protagonist has many problems", I'd recommend you not use that word moving forward to mean that. While your use is technically not incorrect, the word "problematic" has a very specific connotation in modern English slang everywhere (at least online). This is not to bring hate to you, but to help you understand why people took issue with you using that word to describe this story, as I assume you may not be a native English speaker and thus not as familiar with slang. (If my assumptions are wrong, I do apologise, but my main point is to share knowledge that, to me, seems like you don't have.)

Googling "problematic definition slang" gives us this definition:
"having or showing attitudes (such as racial prejudice) or ideas (such as falsehoods) that are offensive, disturbing, or harmful."

When people call stories problematic, they refer especially to the last part of the definition, although all of it does apply. Ie. a story that normalises grooming (if you don't know what this means, google it) or shows grooming-like settings could be called problematic (I use this as an example bc I've seen these types of settings both in straight romance as well as BL.)

So no, the other person doesn't lack reading comprehension with your comment, they were right to assume the slang definition of that word as that is the most common way it is used online, especially when it comes to calling anything "problematic". You also simply seemed to be unaware of this definition, and that is okay. You know now, and I'd advise you to not use the word again like you used here, at least in the context of calling anything problematic, whether that be a story or a character.

Reiterating that I'm not hating on anyone, just trying to clear stuff up as it seems there was a misunderstanding on definitions from my point of view.

The term 'problematic' can be interpreted in different ways depending on the context and my intention, its not just about y'all 'interpretation'(Like you said about the grooming things, and it's obvious there's no such thing as that or anything that is problematic in this story). In this instance, when describing the protagonist as 'problematic,' it was meant to convey the complexity of their character and the multitude of challenges they face throughout the story. It wasn't intended to align with the specific connotations you outlined but I understand that language evolves and can have nuanced meanings, so I'm open to considering different interpretations. Nevertheless, it's important to recognize that interpretations may vary, and my usage of the term was based on its broader definition rather than its slang connotations, y'all should not just depend on slang definition in my opinion. I will say it again, Its so obvious that this story is not problematic if you read the story (the problematic word in yall interpretation about the grooming things or anything that is problematic) so why are yall pointing about that when it's obvious that it was not my intention since there's no such thing as that and y'all know it, I also said "Or Idk", thats also the reason why I said that he/she need reading comprehension, I think its just about common sense in my opinion. Btw its not my fault that I used that word since the term problematic is still correct, The dictionary also said that the term problematic is also a posing a problem : difficult to solve or decide. I don't care if y'all using slangs this days, y'all should still remember that a broad definition is still existing and still using in the internet.

“reading comprehension please” but i quite literally accepted the fact i was being a hypocrite, though i wouldnt want to stoop down to your level of interpretation of things with the way you couldnt even decipher my comment or what “problematic” meant in the first place

what story doesnt have the mc drowning in fucking problems you donkey you couldnt fucking understand it even after the author quite literally explained the whole plot already?

you not understanding anything right now proves you are the one in dire need of a reality check

so speechless you resorted to making fun of my half a decade old username

your opinion is right problematic shouldnt be used on this type of scenario and op is clearly using it wrong but somehow still self justifying the fact as if its not true and is really just on self defense mode saying its “their opinion” even though its outrageous and scandalous as fuck to even admit thinking that the mc is being problematic for growing up in a shit reality, fucking surreal

Coz You dont have reading comprehension that's says a lot just get out of here lol

Btw its not my fault that I used that word since the term problematic is still correct, The dictionary also said that the term problematic is also a posing a problem : difficult to solve or decide. I don't care if y'all using slangs this days, y'all should still remember that a broad definition is still existing and still using in the internet. I feel like you didn't read this coz you're dumb asf

Its just about common Sense

I understand Lili right away, you guys literally insisting word problematic is wrong when its still completely right, problematic have different meanings too. gen alpha this days can't even comprehend a word because they're depending on slang wordssss lmao
