same the storyline for the 2nd couple is soooo boring I have no interest in them anymore（￣へ￣）

Y’all if this is anything like the monsters in ‘Sweet Home’, which uh seems like it is…then yes I am for killing Seo.(dk is full name) because the human’s disposition/underlying desires influenced the type of monster they became. If a sociopathic human with a lust for blood and suffering becomes a monster HE WILL ONLY BE THAT MUCH MORE DANGEROUS!!! U don’t need morals. The guys is the worst kind of liability

yes exactly!! i also think the biggest take away from “Sweet Home” is that humans are the true monsters. After all, all the “monstrous” virus does is prey on human desire and greed. There are innocent human turned monsters, which proves my earlier point that humans are the true monsters here. & ur exactly right this Seo guy is the worst of the worst!!! who the fuck smiles at the sight of dead bodies omg just get rid of him while he’s still weak

i mean it kinda does make sense since a lot of people will judge her for her weight since this is an era where nobles are highly strict about literally everything. i mean people wore corsets to be 'thinner' back in the days. but if possible, yeah, maybe author shouldve taken that one out since shes still a small child

I'm not sure if it's just me (female_16), but I've never thought about weight insecurities reading things like this. Just seemed like something people think about as a personal issue and not doubting it on myself

just because it doesn’t apply to you, doesn’t mean that it does not snd will not apply to others. i think the mc is even younger than that, which makes the focus on her weight even more outrageous. im just pointing out toxic beauty standards such as this (weight) which you can see in some webtoons. there’s no reason to excuse this kind of narrative because you’re not “sensitive” or “insecure” enough. this is how insecurities begin

people forget that corsets were also PRACTICAL. they were also used as bras, and helped to distribute body weight accordingly which would help take pressure off of the spine. many working class ladies wore closets while doing household chores so it was not just for beauty standards. in fact, if we’re going to speak of historical accuracy being thin was NOT considered attractive! we’re talking about a time where wage gaps between social classes were HUGE. massive poverty relates especially among the working classes. being “chubby” and weighing more was considered ideal, as it would be seen as a sign of nobility and access to food etc. so yea webtoons like this only emulate modern toxic beauty standards, in addition of pushing them onto a CHILD. this is poor writing

it's because she's a princess in an old, traditional era. if she's being judged bc she has no magic, then she'd definitely be judged for her weight. it's a bad thing but it's realistic in the setting.

it is not realistic LMAO read my other comment

yes???? its unrealistic cause its fiction??? i mean do you expect earth to have magic powers and hot white haired men

look are you purposefully trying to not see my point? you’re talking about modern toxic beauty standards where “skinny” is ideal, and i’m saying that is not HISTORICALLY ACCURATE. if you look at the dichotomy between social classes way back then, and the huge wage gaps etc you’d know that a majority of the working class barely managed to make ends meet and many times, were very malnourished. THEY were skinny. it wasn’t the ideal - the ideal was weighing more. weighing more meant being a member of the nobility- having access too food, not doing physical labour. stop spreading misinformation if you’re going to argue for toxic narratives in pop internet culture. of course i freaking know white haired handsome men aren’t realistic i’m talking about something entirely else

just say that you’re pulling out these facts from your ass and call it a day so stop replying to me. you haven’t made a solid argument whatsoever and now you’re just arguing for the sake of having the last word. if you don’t like my opinion then don’t reply whatsoever

uhm ok? but why are you so pressed about it then? its not like theyre encouraging children to lose weight... its literally just... there. for the comedy. some webtoons arent historically accurate and thats ok, cause its another world anyway, not the 'Earth' we live in. tbh why would anyone even care about this kinda thing anyway? its not important to the story or the plot. the mc isnt even planned to be insecure about her weight, youre arguing over nothing. plus oh my god, why would you think i would read this shit while researching? do you expect me to read like 70 historical books just to point out that a child shouldnt have to worry about their weight in a goddamn magic isekai manhua? i dont get why youre so mad, i literally agreed with you in my first reply, youre literally just barking like some feral dog at a small problem.

i said "realistic in the setting." the setting is a fictional world where people are narrow-minded— thinks people are "cursed" bc of their hair and eye color, calls ppl "shame" bc they have no magic— it's the stereotypical "old era where people are dumb" setting from every similar story ever. it IS toxic, but it fits into their world. also if you read stuff like this i'm sure you know they aren't historically accurate at all (these authors don't even know what corsets are for). i'm not trying to "have the last word" here btw, just explaining what i meant in my first reply. not arguing with you whatsoever :>

a comment section is a place where people hold discussions. you saw my post and decided to engage in it. if you weren’t planning on having a discussion on why and how this webtoon may be toxic then i don’t understand why you even bothered in the first place. you made the argument about corsets and beauty standards and i countered it. that’s all there is to it

yes, i get that. but i’m trying to look at the bigger picture here. ive seen more than one webtoon or manga that has young children worry about their weight and even FOCUSES on this fact as if it has any relevance to the plot. talking about weight issues and how “skinny is the ideal” only reinforced these toxic narratives within our society. the author has full control over the story and what they should or shouldn’t include. i’m just saying how sad it is, and people who struggle with their weight or people who don’t can read stuff like this and start questioning themselves. plus historical misconceptions drive me up the wall. it’s an isekai webtoon about children damnit can’t we go without “diets” and talks of cutting calories?

also sorry if i came off as rude. i was replying to the other person. you made a good point

Welp... Idk... he never did anything bad to her for her to really fear him? On the contrary both brothers shower her with love? And although he is described as villainous... that's after her death. To people with that kind of power and that probably went through a couple assassination attempts family they can trust is pretty important.
You know... plople complain both when mc fixates on the og plot and also when they don't. And till now it was building her relationship with the brothers. With the real existence of the goddess, the future appearance of the og mc and the fact that her body was hurt at the beginning are enough to foreshadow some seriousness in the plot...

are you kidding me? he’s a MURDERER. a serial killer. he’s been described as nothing more than that in the book. she even said it herself. he doesn’t become murderous “after her death” he becomes murderous… at a very young age. he stopped smiling and lost his well, “good disposition” once she ran away and went missing, but that had nothing to do with his character. there’s no use adding seriousness to the plot when the MC does not care for her own life and is thrown around by every character she comes across in the name of comedy

Loooks like maybe u should stop reading it then

No... what I mean is that he lost it only after his sister's death. Do you think the emperor, his best friend doesn't know he is as you say a murderer? And yet he keeps being super friendly with him? As I said you need to consider the setting and background. I do think he killed before, and many times.

I'd also trust less her knowledge obtained from the book since many things seem to differ. She being alive for example. As I said I also don't think the og ran away. And her disappearance wasn't explained yet. She was super afraid at the beginning because of the books description and is slowly losing her fear of them because they are no threat to her. She is slowly separating book and reality.

Rn I'm more curious about what happened to the og before she got there, what the goddess meant, whats ehr oracle and if that female lead of the book os really good...

But feel free to drop it... maybe I want to be you if only for a day will be more to your taste...
(=・ω・=)

i did im just criticizing it

genuinely curious what you would've wanted her to do? at the time the guards took her, all she knew was the bastian from the novel and she was scared of him. From her perspective (at the time), the sister ran away from her brothers, so she's terrified. Let's say for arguments sake that her initial thoughts were true.....what was resisting going to get her? death? more injuries? Her main goal was to not be found but then her friend sold her out. She didn't want to go but she didn't have a choice. Also why are is your criticism mainly targeted at her and not bastian himself? I'm saying also a lot but oh well....also, bastian was going more insane the longer his sister went missing and now she's back. Aside from him and Leon fighting and them being overprotective when someone gets too close to amelia, there're not being murderous towards others. It's clear that they're both major siscons. I'm surprised you didn't drop this series earlier when the male lead was described (from the og novel's pov) because he's supposed to be worse than Bastian. Most isekai manhwas show that the og novel isn't a good source of material to base everything off of. It might work well in the early stages but after that, everything is subject to change including character morals/personalities. She started off going by her knowledge of the novel, but now she's going off of her personal experiences, if she has them, but if she doesn't have personal experiences, she goes by the novel (i.e. her knowledge of the ML aka sleeping beauty). Imo FL's like this are much better bc it's annoying af whenever female lead's obsess over the original plot when its obvious that everything has changed.

i did drop it early, based on the first 8ish chapters? i felt like she could’ve put more effort into disguising herself. for example, dyeing her hair. covering her scar- whether it be by making a new scar on top of it or covering it in other ways. leaving the village when they found out her identity? not being painfully obvious when being questioned? hm

trust me, her brothers are pieces of shit lol i’m not excusing their behaviour, i’m just focusing my critique on the MC because she’s a better character overall and i had hopes for her. she’s the character everyone is rooting for is she not?
