The way I got disinterested in the slop sex and more interested in the world building lore is so funny to me
Skjdjsjs no honestly I'm the same like I've only stuck around because the concept of women being in control and men essentially being kept as breeding cattle is bizarrely funny I need to know how we got here
Stale is her adopted brother, even if they're not related by blood it's still icky, she's supposed to be your sister why are you blushing over her? Val looks way older, rude (bad boy/mean guy troupe is so cliche imo gimme someone gentle) and there's power imbalance with the whole slace thing. Arthur isn't that bad but so far I'm not sensing the chemistry?
I don't mind no end game.
Is it weird that in the earlier chapters I sort've rooted for Leon because him in the long hair gave off bottom vibes and I was really hoping for some femdom dynamic? JUST ME? OK. He totally ruined it with the weird live bombing thing.
My only criticism is how sexualized and fetishized Fiv can be but otherwise this story is really really gooood
Dude this shit's so toxic and when I finally get surprised and see a move in the healthy direction another issue comes up. I like the emotional complexity and detail in describing how they feel or their povs.
Also, too much weird sexual scenes for a story about minors imo they're sexualized a lot. These are high schoolers why would I want "sexy" scenes of them making out in underwear, or doing kinky stuff. HELLO?!
How is it possible that 90% of the female characters are bitches? The amount of obsession with the characters is so freakishly insane and unrealistic I stsrted to question if the author hates women, but charachters like the president were chill.
Chapters with horrific bullying, sexual harassment and lack of consent I feel weren't properly given weight.
Jaerim was SEXUALLY ASSALFED and filmed ffs
Then he went and said hi to him the next day? Come on all if that was plot setup for the guy to confess his love for him??!!!
Insane.
Yuri! You had to have the other guy stop you just so you could come back and defend Jaerim?!?!?! BRO WAS ON THE GROUND SURROUNDED BY A GROUP OF STRANGERS ROO WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU THINK AAAAAARGHHH HE STILL MADE IT ABOUT HIMSELF TOO
The ending chapters felt so rushed
It's such a good read but it's really frustrating.
I think it's really funny how every single male character turned out to like men it really feels like the world of a BL manhua
But it's really eye-opening on the natire of homophobia especially in school settings
Where tf are the teachers? So incompetent
I'm not even gonna talk about the toxic ass relationship between the archer captin and blondie, ig it ended with the acceptance that they're BOTH toxic? Seriously I'm so baffled even if they don't get a happy ending for the sake of realism that was just so baffling he didn't even know about the being fat thing
I was hoping for some pivot addressing anorexia or body dysmorphia but it feels like prop
They both acknowledge they have shallow sort've infatuation instead of anything of substance. Even with the extra story where it showed he's trying to accept himself...
Just.... Idek how to feel
And the whole emotional scene in the lake about ataying together "even if he knows Yuri will hurt him" bro stfu i could never, even if I cared about someone I try to learn to still put myself and self-respect and worth first.
Amd honestly the whole "pretty" vs "ugly" thing was so icky and exaggerated fir me.
I like Jaerim's just and caring character but he's waaaay too naive sometimes.
Honestly at first I disliked how toxic they seemed and how rushed the story was until I realized it's meant to be a short story, IT'S REALLY GOOOOOD
I thought it didn't make sense how all of a sudden they were marrying her to this creepy duchess character who went yandere, and she was a sex addict who became head over heels for someone she's just met, Charlotte seemed very toxic to me
Lesbo preg!!!!!
My only criticism is I wish Skidi had a bush cuz c'mon she's a wolffff it's reminding me of the beast's human's version from Beauty & the beast, needs more floff xD
Lack of bush seems unrealistic
The art is really pretty and they seem really sweet
The way they talk about her dads like they're a gay couple is funny and kinda cute to me
I don't know how I've managed to stumble upon this gem, the title wasn't really encouraging and seemed very cringy I thought I'd end up reading about a badboy ml and naive fl troupe but I was delightfully surprised. This will remain on one of my top fav manhuas, geniunely so heartfelt.
The setting heavily reminds me of ww1, it's basically anti-nobles and classicism from the perspective of a sheltered noble woman after her house fell and she realized her husband might've hated her all along (or did he?). It speaks on the importance of the decisions (and lack of them) that we make and the consequences we'd pay for it, communication, trauma, rehabilitation, healing and what it means to live.
The main couple went through a lot, there weren't any cringy cliche troupes from what I've seen which felt very raw and realistic, it's extremely refreshing. I've went through an emotional rollercoaster reading this, cried so much. Warning main couple were extremely toxic in the beginning as they each navigate that.
It's angsty, there are heavy themes on violence, suicide, self-harm, war, trauma and gained physical disabilities. If any of these are too triggering please reconsider.
Couple makes me think they'd make a wholesome old couple next door who'd randomly drop the most interesting lore on you one day.
Setting feels extremely nostalgic and bittersweet for some reason, there was no summary so I was expecting a fantasy setting but it seemed like the 1920-1930s I think.
Husband is built like a traumatized fridge wifu, fl is GORGEOUS and sweet, smart and extremely strong.
I hope they make and anime adaptation for this one day, but PLEASE for the love of everything CHANGE THE TITLE.
Give it a chance!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO THE FL IS NAIVE THR ML IS AN ASSHOLE
I'M ONLY STAYING FOR THE TREE
Real.
Eeeeh it looks boring sorry, the female lead seems bland
