idk i cringed very hard at the fact that all this omega-ism is pretty transparently xeroxed from feminist struggles and women’s place in a patriarchal society. it seems women are still at a disadvantage in this story’s world, whether we believe our unreliable narrator at all or not. this is very silly and all but i prefer omegaverse works that gracefully reconcile the primary sex with the secondary in terms of worldbuilding. still very entertaining though, will be reading regardless of anything i said ( ̄∇ ̄")
You have to remember where this is being published. This work is probably the entry-level feminism study for so many young fujoshis in Japan, and is one of the rare few omegaverse works that bluntly doesn’t provide a happy family ending to the characters. Its value is in opening the doors to young girls to feminist concepts in a digestible way.
i feel like it’s all slowly coming together! we finally get a tiny bit of a grasp on things. it’s always been about identity, hasn’t it. i wonder how hayashida will tie everything in
