if the author really plans on pairing mc with garon, then they could have written the stockholme syndrome trope more appropriately. like, are you genuinely telling me that mc just gave in like that without even giving a second thought to staying with the 2nd, and MUCH better ml?? literally, in just 7-10 chapters bro gave up on his whole revenge
its an adapted version of a korean novel. the story is based on a student transferring to a very secluded, boys only school? (i think) and he meets a gang of students who would repeatedly SA him and manipulate him to do a lot of disgusting stuff but in the end its just another stockholme syndrome trope with the transfer student ending up with a member of the gang of students. PLSS HELP ME FIND THIS MANHWA AHH
i hate the ML so much whoever justifies him for putting MC through such despicable acts even from the start - you are so fucked up in the mind. MC does not even remember anything at all so you're practically justifying rape if you support this type of way of 'seeking vengeance'. after all, there were many more ways the author could have went with the revenge arc, but they managed to choose the absolute most cliché yet disgusting trope.
for real
I agree nobody should be justifying what the ml is doing but if u don’t like the author’s direction of the story for the sake of your own peace just stop reading lol
im not even reading it i just hear about this manhwa on my twitter page a lot and to see so many people there romanticizing MC's suffering rlly icked tf out of me
tysm cuz yeah like… idk im unfortunately hooked but as a survivor i empathize with the mc more than the ml (since the mc doesn’t remember what he did/has no reason to think he’s not completely innocent)
