They're both in a shitty impossible situation, and Lizan accidentally blinding him and leading to his addiction. Which leads to this hellscape journey of resolving guilt, and him in turn hurting if not fucking more. This is just a showcase of how women get fucked over by the very system patriarchy and imperialism have propped up, and I think it's actually great depicting that. What I think poorly handled here is the Valde guy's monologue, he's spiralling in his own guilt now and the first think he thinks about how he hurt and in turn is feeling shitty about it oh no, how is he articulate in his mind. I wonder if this was intentional depiction of men's brain. Death would be a reprieve but fuck no she's a survivor she should fight to live, now. It's a good thing this hetmanwha makes you ask the important questions.
I’m pretty sure that’s how men think. That death is the worst thing that could happen and since she’s not dead, she can survive and thrive but as women, we know that’s not the case. Death alone is actually a pretty good fate. There’s so many worse fates I can think of and her situation is one of them.
10/10 perfect, one chapter was just not it (fell through) was Doha and Baekrang talking about how to deduce a gender (i.e. Yeon) it was just really half braincell to just soft muscle = women instead of just I dont know Yeon yearning to be feminine and that being noticed by Doha, or Yeon just saying "You're a whole lotta woman for being a man" and Doha just "???????" But everything else magnificent, the head priestess Wol story arc especially being reborn and free and finding love. Go very obvious wlw girl, my lesbian butch priestess go be free like the wind and keep FIGHTING (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
Like the starting chapter does seem annoying like it's building this protagonist as cool and suave and macho. But he actually has emotions, and not only that other characters around him are also solid not just props. There's no weird ass romance, it straight up went to family bonds, and breaking every incel's expectation. It's not hammering in the alpha male narrative, it's hammering in the fact that this is a story about a man who cares about his dad, sister, uncles, aunties, seniors, and in a way even himself; and he's doing everything in his arsenal to make a happy ending for all. Also lmao he's jealous of his mini version receiving headpats from his old pops.
Gio: I just wanna leave in peace, I'm scared man.
Gio's creations: AFFIRMATIVE PAPA
Honey especially: Danger detected? Danger eliminated.
I love this genre of introverts becoming eldritch beings by accident WE'RE IN FOR A SWEET RIDE
Haesun really does look like he's itching to be free, but he shows emotions, like he cares about Eunha. Specifically at Chap-9 and 8, and 19 too. I mean I'm pretty sure he's elated that finally he can "be free" but him and Eunha are so similar in circumstances, he says "we're both abandoned lonely" and that's why he's so latch on. I hope he overcomes his vengeful fuel mode while Eunha becomes the vengeful one, I mean these two can be hella codependent on each other
I know that MC doesn't end up with anyone, and the romance thingy was supposed to be open ended even though heavily hinting that Wolf boy was supposed to be endgame.
BUT HOLY SHIT AM I ROOTING FOR BLONDIE, HE'S HUNKY, HE'S PRETTY. HE'S GOT CROWS FEET, SAME AGE AS EUNHA, ONLY PERSON WHO CAN RELATE TO EUNHA HE WAS BUILT FOR HER
where did you read the novel?
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT CHAP 41 LAST PAGE PELLETA YEARNED FOR HIM, LIKE HE WANTED YUDER-USSY AND HIS KIDS HE SNIFFING LIKE HE COCAINE
Lmaooooo Yuder-ussy
Probably because most of the people here read the novel and know when it's time to get excited. See the comment further ahead? It's more interesting now to finally see how Enon looks like :)
I love their artstyle evolution, like IT'S SO BITEABLE. And I think Richard dissociated there, it's been foreshadowed in a couple of chapters of how he just zones the fuck out a lot when it's something serious and thinks "How should I do this?" "What is the normal response?". Bro, zoned out so much with the death pressure of his dick like bruh, it's an uncormfortable scene (glad it's fictional and was portrayed right) and it has depth with just so few scenes. Art is made to comfort the DISTURBED and DISTURBE the comforted sth sth
MY GOD THE ALTERNATE UNIVERSE WAS BEAUTIFUL , ALSO MOMMY LOOK AT THOSE GUNS WE WERE ROBBED SOBS
