I almost dropped it as it had that self-proclaimed lead again who makes the capable lead burdened (and well, she's too dreamy and as you'd expect, blame others for her misfortune when she falls). Plus, even the boss slaves her to work. BUT! The squid version of the FL is so cute and her personality is very admirable that I just had to keep reading. And the typical cold and calculatong ML had an unexpected layer of mystery and intrigue to him. I like how it's also a slice of life, the FL has her flaws but she has principles and abides by them. She is consistent. Even the yandere ML has his redeeming qualities and character development. I like the layered plot where lives are interconnected, both past and present. The story gather more depth after all those ridiculousness in the first arc.
Plus it's not purely heterosexual I just feel like the natural interweaving of hetero and homosexual relationship is so wholesome and I cherished it so much. Albeit the homosexual relationship isn't that fleshed out since there's a past which wasn't unraveled well, but their relationship is presented well enough. And we even have a second probable homosexual relationship blooming—which the FL took upon her shoulders to make sure that if it does blossom, it wouldn't affect the family much HAHAHA
Spoiler
1. Petty God who cursed the wrong family but didnt lift it after the 100 years he was told. this petty god waited for them to be reborn with an ambiguous intention to make them together but also sink them like titanic after shipping them.
2. His punishment is to NEVER see that child he loves reborn since he chose to vent his anger to innocent members of the family. You'd think he cares but stubbornly had to do something to ruin that "good" sentiment. —maybe I'm also petty or can't let go of this grudge... i just really REALLY don't like him. but well, the author did a great job writing him!
3. i loved him during the bullying case but that's pretty much it.
4. i still believe that the author has often forced actions on the main characters even if it's something so stupid just to move the plot forward and interesting or confrontational—so that's just my critique towards their writing, coz they did a splendid job fleshing the story out, esp during the bullying arc
I personally needed some closure at their wedding, but well, we didn't see that.
I agree.. the ending indicates that the god gets to meet the child maybe after 100 years.. right after he lifts the curse of 300 years
