i’m only on chapter 18, but i’m not sure if i’ll still follow along the story. it seems interesting, but the romance aspect in this is turning me off. idk why it’s so hard for characters to just break up w their partner when they don’t want anything to do w them anymore. even if ryan seems like the really annoying and clingy boyfriend who would still want to continue the relationship, but hello? noah is just waaaaay worse. bro has just been gaslighting, lying, manipulating, and cheating on him. he seems to have no problem setting boundaries with his childhood best friend whom he lived with, what’s stopping him from just breaking up and setting boundaries with ryan? you’d think someone who went through the stuff noah did— losing his parents and having to struggle being alienated by his best friend’s family— he’d have a little more empathy and awareness on how he’s treating others.
i feel like Noah doesn't want to be alone so he just decides to stick around with Ryan despite everything... the story starts slow, so from someone that is actively reading the story i would like to suggest you to keep going and give it a chance to the end of season 1 (the story is on hiatus until sept 12th, so it'll return soon!) (●'◡'●)ノ
not to mention that the story is a love triangle, so we're just getting started ^^
am i the only one who refuses to read very popular/hyped manhwa/manga within the community just in case it was so good that it might ruin a lot of the others for me, raising my standards higher that i’m terrified nothing else will ever compare? like i wanna see what it’s all about, but this is my thought process every time lolll
with bato gone, tapas shutting down, and the increasing amount of ai scanlation groups (that take over even if there’s already another translation group working on a manhwa/manhua/manga), let’s all say thank you to our hardworking scanlation groups!!
