I really like this manhwa, but I know that the ending is going to make me unhappy. All I can hope is for the manhwa to branch away from the novel but I doubt that would happen. I know that this manhwa isn't as well written as OVR or anything, and I'm definitely not saying that it is. (A lot of manhwa could probably never beat OVR in terms of writing.) But there are a lot of parts that I like. And I think these parts are a little redeemable. I see a lot of criticism, and they are all correct, and I respect them. I really just hope that the adapters see the criticism one day and tries to make an effort to change it.
Do you think I should ask for spoilers??
I mean I'm enjoying the story but if the ending is bad I will definitely dropp the manhwa
Can u just tell me the borderline of the ending how's it good okay or bad etc
+1
Edwin is the main love interest. This was a really unique manhwa but I draw the line at pseudo incest. And don't you dare say "But they aren't-" no. They called each other family a dozen times before, have the same father figure, Josh calls them both his older siblings and they were really close to adopting Beelze. I'm dropping ts
Except Edwin has always been against her adoption since he has feelings for her. He’s also the reason they went back in time right so he could save her
I'm reading and up to 40 ish chapters and I'm really scared their going to go the pseudo-incest route with Edwin and Beelze. I really want them to stay brother-adopted sister. I also really want the Love interest to be Ismail. But every hint towards the two of them (Edward and Beelze) is making me scared. Past manhwas have traumatized me for life lol
Ryder goes by they/them pronouns, and so does Miria. It is that serious bc everyone is suppised to be Mori's "mother". The charm of this manhwa is that aliens don't have genders or biological sex, so they don't understand gender norms or gender roles like humans have. The message for what the author has in mind is that the aliens don't have gender roles, and therefore any alien can be Mori's mom.
OMG EXACTLY it was pissing me off to see on twitter ppl calling Ryder DAD or FATHER. like, did y'all not read the manga??????
And the fact that you can read the official translation for free on Webtoon and their pronouns are stated again and again through the story. That's also why I love this so much. Anyone can fit the role of a mom ♡
Incest between the empress and the second prince. They literally kiss like mouth to mouth. The second prince also declares he only loves his mom. Two wackos. GOD THIS IS SO HORRIBLE TO READ. ML acts like a 5 year old child (even when they get intimate), FL clearly states that his mind is regressed. The nanny is also really weird, like emotionally incestuous. She calls ML her son but is also weirdly inlove with him. Like yandere style, murdering every potential love interest and shit. When FL finally catches her and ML rejects the nanny, the nanny goes batshit crazy and strips off her shirt just a bit to show here breasts. She specifically does this to encourage him to breastfeed off of her. Yeah..
I have a theory that the nanny was under some sort of spell, which explqins her odd behavior
Yeah the incest part threwwww me offff but this was very normal for royals back then
If you clicked on this, don't read this. It's your typical "MC is a non-chalant bad bitch who gets kicked out from the hero squad because they are all so idiotic. Later they regret kicking him out and he is living his best life ever!" That's literally it. I will say, it is unique with how they handle the demon lord and stuff, but seriously it's so cliche. Love interest is the "psycho bitch who gets so angry when others try to take away her love from her" type, Ex lover is literally gang-raped after they kick MC out, leader hero is a loser who "trusts too much", and the other two characters are genuinely so bland I barely remember what little significance they had.
It's revenge slop. I was genuinely snoring second chapter.
They basically just fight over her at first. Like a custody battle, but then they have a truce to finally get evidence of the evils that the empress consort has done, and they are legit so rivals to lovers coded. It's more entertaining to think they enter a romantic relationship than actually reading this slop lol
Can someone just spoil this for me? I hate misunderstandings with a passion and after the ending of the second season I didn't have the energy to read the second season
I just think there was no explanation behind Yuma and no proper resolve for the war thing. I love the characters, their growth, and their dynamics, however, the main plot is kind of all over the place. I wish there were more chapters so that the manhwa was slower paced. And less smut scenes, absolutely loved them, but more scenes could have been given to lore and growth.
Criticism 1: Where did Yuma come from?? I know the obvious answer is South Korea, Earth, but it still doesn't explain his backstory. He briefly mentions it when he talks to the Goddess again, but we aren't given more context. We know (as of right now) that he doesn't have family, friends, or anyone who would care if he got transmigrated (which is a really redundant excuse writers use). I wish there was more nuance to it I guess. Like I want to see Yuma actually grieve his actual previous life.
Criticism 2: Why did the Goddess do all of that?? Yuma, in the story, is revealed to be all of the "outsiders" from previous times. The Goddess simply erases his memories from his previous trasmigrations when he gets in a new body. The only reason why in Sachel he remembers is because he went into a contract with Nine (a demon), which severed his connection to the Goddess, meaning he is less affected by her manipulation and can recall living as Sachel. We NEVER got this answered in the story. Not only did it make me feel unsatisfied, it made me even more confused! I get that the Goddess was simply a character to move the plot along but she's practically nonexistent and you forget about her 90% of ths time.
Criticism 3: The fact that they never properly resolved the "almost going into war with humans" thing?? They just kind of skip over it, the new king is too busy to declare war, the humans are too scared to fight demons, but you guys didn't try and solve it politically? I just find it hard that the LITERAL Demon King would have a bunch of freetime sparring and having sex with Yuma and not literally trying to come up with ways to resolve the conflict with the humans? And even if he wasn't concerned with the human kingdom, he would still not have time to be spending time with Yuma. He was a fucking kingdom to run! And they just got their food situation solved.
But, those are only my main gripes with this story.
This is probably a weird take and I might get flamed, but if MC isn't autistic coded, he's definitely neurodivergent. The way he avoids eye contact (I know it's technically due to his face blindness), his logical way of thinking, the way he doesn't really ask for help, or feel the need to explain private things to coworkers, or he just forgets to inform them of important details, and the way he doesn't like getting touched feel a lot like Autistic traits. I see a lot of myself in him (undiagnosed but waiting for appointment and highly suspected highly fuctional Autism). He's definitely very high fuctioning, considering how he lives by himself and has a stable job.
There are also a lot more subtle things like him missing his normal life/routine and feeling like he wants it back. It's also stuff like how he can't pick-up on social cues like flirting/getting hit on or how he misinterprets these things. He also doesn't understand romantic feelings and emotions in general. It's not like he's emotionless, rather, he doesn't have empathy or struggles with thinking outside of intellect.
ANYWAY, just a headcanon.
I have the exact same symptoms as him and everything you mentioned here applies to me too (and has so for all my life, I even struggle with remembering and recognising faces) but i was diagnosed with severe anxiety disorder and no autism. Those traits can apply to a variety of mental health conditions, including anxiety disorder, autism, OCD and more.
Yeah I've always read this thinking he is a little autism coded (coming as a diagnosed autist myself) and I have prosopagnosia too. I remember research being conducted to show that there is actually a link between autism and prosopagnosia so I think your headcanon isn't entirely out of the blue haha.
Yeah, which is why I said he's definitely neurodivergent if he isn't autistic coded. I simply applied stuff I had to himself and found myself finding patterns in his behavior.
