I’ve seen a lot of people dropping this because
1. ML is a yandere, he’s not your type and I respect that. I just think that for what it’s worth, at least for now we can see that he’s still very devoted and tried to restraint himself from his whatever demonic powers.
2. ML not saving mc in OG timeline. From 10 chapters in, I just think that we have not managed to cover a lot of the plot points and I think that you can surmise yourself that this current timeline is surrounded by mysteries. Even the biggest golden finger aunt birgitta has her memories clouded over the story. Also, from what we know so far you can actually hypothesize that maybe ML went crazy in the OG timeline because he didn’t have the help he got in the current timeline from mc, let’s say he remembers her because she gave him that cookie one time but remember, the OG plot was supposed to be for mc to go batshit, assuming ML saw that and he became even more disillusioned with the world.
I just think that it’s too early for you to drop it. This story has a lot of potential and we’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg.
This god is so problematic like he doesn’t have a set playbook on how to handle if things go wrong with the saviors he sent in, and he’s not a good judge of character either like ??? Pick a struggle bro…
By seeing mc so mature and reliable, atp he’s basically telling her to wipe his as or this little world would be destroyed and that’s like taking gaslighting to a whole new level even tho he’s being indiscreet about it.
If there’s no suitable person in sight then maybe, just maybe, stop sending people in for a while???? Like????? Stop putting in people who’d just create trouble for no reason… srsly…
Overall vibe and romance mc ml is good tho hehe they look good.
I get why people complain about the Haneil circle photo arc, and I’ve noticed that the author has a habit of leaving things on cliffhanger chapters regarding the “trouble” plot (like the one chapter ending with akira saying she don’t want to be around marin and there was no mention of it for like, 5-6 chapters after before it got resolved).
But personally, I think that the circle photo arc serves as a highlight and beautifully executed. It did took 3 chapters but I still think it was a great plot point.
With sono bisque doll, you don’t just follow the protagonists’s emotional line but also regarding the craft (cosplay).
With every cosplay Marin did, we get to see a little of the character’s original series so we can also relate and appreciate both Marin’s and Gojo’s thoughts in executing the cosplay.
What’s different between the previous cosplays with the one now is because the previous ones were shorter and simpler games/series which is why the execution and length of time the author mentioned it is shorter, meanwhile the author made a great built up for Mandate of Heaven which supposed to be a very grand, mind breaking story.
Although it seems like the chapter is stuck on Marin “getting attention”, you can actually see there’s a lot to unpack there. The whole thing about people getting obsessed with “Haneil” (Marin) to look at them even tho they knew it wasn’t really Haneil is very interesting because it really happens. And for author to “drag it out” is actually more of describing this phenomenon as best as she can and it wasn’t redundant at all. And fact is, it wasn’t even just about Haneil but also snippets of Gojo’s obsession as an artist and also to have Marin progress as a character, to prove that she’s not just a gal, or a casual ReMo, but truly a talented individual.
Also it might be unrelated but I don’t mind for Mandate of Heaven to be mentioned more because it’s truly an interesting story. (And “Coffin” too!)
YESSSSS
I LOVE IT TOO! (I'm scared too)
bro grew progressively more handsome with each chapter like whaaa…. shitting n crying rn
from our perspective, it is perfectly reasonable and even endearing that the supposed reaction from ml towards the mc’s revelation would be that he loves her for her.
but what most people don’t realize is how big the severity of the revelation really is. it’s hard to build the courage to say something as nonsensical as transmigration especially in that era where there’s no precedence of such things ever happened even in mainstream media.
i think it’s just right for mc to be anxious even if she knows that the ml would just accept it wholeheartedly. sometimes it’s not enough to just be accepted, there needs to be certain level understanding, deliberation, and concern regarding the matters between both parties as some sort of emotional assurance that could convey that ‘yes, i am listening to you’ and ‘yes, now i understand and i fully accept it’.
what the mc and luca expected of the ml is just the surface level of acceptance. which makes them anxious because it got them thinking if he really understood and accepted it or he’s just being indifferent and don’t really care about it. it’s just that the ml has a track record of bring a straight ball and doesn’t know how to handle common sense/social matters very well which makes him a little standoffish and indifferent even if in reality he’s not.
from our perspective it’s easy to see that the ml definitely loves them, but taking it from their perspective it wasn’t easy to know. just like the saying, sometimes it’s easier for outsiders to see objectively what’s going on rather than the people involved.
regarding luca’s resentment, it’s very easy to see that he might be misunderstanding something. but his reaction is perfectly portrayed because, with him, things ended with knowing that ml’s love for him is only based on responsibility (which is probably not) and for a child who lacked love and adult figure to begin with, this is a very hurtful statement. especially with it ended tragically, all sadness, longing, resentment, and unwillingness are mixed up into a jumbled mess of big emotional trauma that followed him. even tho right now he probably already knows that ml is not what he thought he is, deep down he’s still not willing to accept it because of this trauma.
it’s not that people’s comments about mc and luca being overly anxious is wrong. it’s just that feelings are complicated and for now i think both of their reactions are normal enough.
this was really needed for the few people in the comments
You summarised it very well ┗( T﹏T )┛
I felt distressed for all of them ╥﹏╥
FUCK all love interests, I’ll cook and clean for you girl
Put a diamond on it and a villa too
Personally, ofc the endgame would be hyeonjin-jaewoo. We’re finally getting a healthy ass couple and they both deserve each other.
But just let me say this first, I’m not ready and I don’t think I’ll ever be ready for mujin’s downfall
Like this man’s so bad but he’s so lonely and everytime he’s soft, I get soft too, but he’s too much of an asshole that I honestly can’t see other people except jaewoo who (by some miracle bl luck) would stay with him. So if jaewoo’s out of the game, boy… mujin’s dead fr.. mentally or physically…
This man SHOULD NOT be a king of a country oh my godddd Thank heavens for Alan being there or that country would fold so fast
