great potential but got messed up when they started pitting dimensions vs dimensions
Why so?
I also dropped it in that part but I'm trying to read it again. Is there something good after?
season 1: ohhh this is interesting
season 2: wth this is just fetish porn! where's the plot????
season 3: are we back in the plot now?
is it just me? i find the mc pretty shitty as a secret agent...i was going to forgive the rape scenes (haven't reached it yet but have seen the comments) but reading how shitty he was in his job is not worth continuing...if you like this, you do you ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Is the grape and sexual abuse done? I stopped reading coz I wanted to wait for that arc to be done.
Yes, now we have kinda of a chasing arc with the ml making up any excuses to see the mc
Are the grape scenes depicted? Or are they just conversations? I'm scared to read this after reading comments that say graoe happened
they're everywhere in the first phase of the story (1st timeline)
The scenes themselves are more implied than anything else. But there is some graphic sexually consensual scenes but... Not really? Idk. I read it but it's not that bad.
Ok I don't mind explicit scenes but I don't want to read the ones
I would have liked it a whole lot if Oda didn't force himself on Katou. That was not really necessary in the story. If he stopped, that would have made another fear that Katou had to deal with which will make the story more interesting.
I have not read the novel but I like the fact that they didn't shy away in depicting Wooyeon as somebody who has been clinically diagnosed with psychopathy (hereby referred to as psychopaths). I am not denying that relationship is toxic and that Insoeb could possibly be an unconscious masochist. However, psychopaths don't miraculously become "cured". Rather, they learn behaviors that "illict positive responses". His anchor used to be fame and so he did anything thay could sustain his fame. Now, his new anchor is Insoeb and he will learn to do things that would make Insoeb happy. It does not mean that Wooyeon has come to love Insoeb. Psychopaths will never understand that concept. Rather, Insoeb will help Wooyeon become "closer to become normal".
as a novel reader you are 100% correct!! the story continues as wooyeon makes decisions, even though he doesn’t see the appeal, all in hope to make inseop happy
Great to know that the source material is accurate. It is difficult to find fictional literature that accurately depict mental disorders.
is it just me? seems like kyuho shrunk toward the end of season 2. he was a big man with manly man features during s1 then towards the end of s2, he looked like a twink. in s1, kangha looked younger than kyuho by about 5 yrs. in s3, kyuho looked younger than kangha by more than 10 years.
This usually happens with manhwa especially long series - the art changes to make everyone look very feminine. Same thing happened with Love is an Illusion where Dojin and eventually his brother Dojun got twinkified
That's says a lot about Korean (maybe most Asian) standards of beauty. Just look at Lee Minho - I really prefer his old face (look at him in Boys Before Flowers) but his jaws were shaved and he's become more feminine looking. I prefer a manly look tbh.
I usually read manga in my home office. I share the space with my brother. He got creeped out because I kept smiling and giggling. When he took a peek, it just happens that I was on the panel where Len grabbed Kian and kissed him hahahaha
i have never been pregnant but i havd had multiple medical scares that require assistance from others..because i have always been shunned when it was still manageable, i barely ask for help when it gets worse...even when the people near me indirectly offer help like what the ML is doing, it all seems performative and insincere for me...it always felt like i became invalid and a burden to them...i hated myself for that
I am sorry you had to go through something like that, and I hope you doing better nowadays. (づ ᴗ _ᴗ)づ♡
Your experience is a good example how people try to protect themself from more disappointment. You can't believe genuine affection anymore, and expect retaliation in exchange. Asel is very similar in this aspect.
thanks for the message (▰˘◡˘▰) still recovering and flares still happen...but after going through psychotherapy while doing physical therapy, i think i'm in a better place...one thing that has remained though is that i only geniunely accept help from specific people...other folks still make my skin crawl
on another note, i read somewhere that the story will get better...i hope we get to see that soon (づ￣ ³￣)づ
