(╯°Д °)╯╧╧
I'ma say this as nice as I can. PLEASE BACK THE FUCK UP. YOU ALREADY HAVE ONE.
SOHO IS THE MAJORS. SO PLEASE BACK THEE FUCK UP. OR PREPARE FOR THE "RUN-UP-GET-DONE-UP OPERATION" SIR. (ಠ_ಠ)
I love it when a MC isn't attached to life. They see things in the most wise and realistic way and they aren't shallow. It's like they're in their most pure an unbiased form...kind of like children who just accept anyone or anything for what it is and don't judge anything because they don't see a malicious reason to.
I truly enjoy this state of clarity because they see the world from a universal point of view. The greatest state of accepting reality is really the best state especially if they're naturally kind people. So satisfying.

THE WAY EVEN MY BLOOD WAS STARTING TO BUBBLE WITH THE GASLIGHTING!!!!
LIKE HOW IS THE CONCLUSION WAS THAT "He never existed" WHEN IT WAS CLEARLY THAT HIS SOUL NEVER PASSED ON TO THE UNDERWORLD MEANING HE NEVER DIED!!! BRUH YOU ARE BASICLY HIS IMMORTAL EX HUSBAND WITH AMNESIA YOU GASLIGHTING INCONSIDERATE BASTARD!!! (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
That’s not gaslighting. The ML is the only one aware of the MC’s prior incarnation. The MC is helping the ML despite the fact that he doesn’t believe he’s the reincarnation of the ML’s lover. If he knew that that was true and then told him the guy was a figment of his imagination, then sure, you’d be right.
Also, reincarnation isn’t always handled the same way in every story, but being a reincarnation and having amnesia aren’t the same thing. They have the same soul but even if he remembers his past life, that doesn’t mean he should automatically feel responsible for what his past self did. The only reason why he’s even okay with dying with the ML if he turns out to be the reincarnation is because he’s tired of being alive with all his bad luck. The amnesia argument only works if the MC is actually immortal but doesn’t realize it, as he wouldn’t have reincarnated.
...But he was gaslighting him..he was indeed manipulating the poor guy into questioning his own perception of reality.
Also, though I understand where you're coming from, we don't know if he was reincarnated or his shape was sinply changed or not, these facts haven't been revealed yet. I mean like you said he can't even recall it so that also doesn't make it okay for him to simply shift the blame on someone else's faulty memory- when HE ALSO can't recall anything himself.
He just doesn't want to deal with it or be involved with it, which in my opinion- he WASN'T helping but simply looking for a way to rid himself of accountability and him being immortal and being tired would actually back up this claim.
Being an immortal and tired of the bs would be the main reason why he would use gaslighting to shift the focus off himself cause it would make his life slightly more bareable, no? ( ᐙ )？
You'd have a point if he was doing that while knowing the truth. However it is a fact (even outside the fictional world) that someone confined like that, on their own for long periods of times, can misremember and create situations that never happened in their own mind. We as readers know this not to be true, but if someone was telling me I was their lover in a past life and I couldn't remember jack shxt about it, I'd also be more inclined to believe they gaslit themselves into believing that to be true. Especially since this occured after what I know to be the highest authority on human life (the underworld), told us that my so called past self never existed.
Also he doesn't have to be doing any of what he's doing right now. Going places with the ML, asking question to the jasa, ect. And he's been clear about the fact that he didn;t want to deal with this from the begining. I can't see why there would be anything wrong with that or with wanting to rid himself of the responsibility for an action he doesn't remember doing. So yes, in order to clarify whether he should or shouldn't take responsibility for what his past self did, he is indeed helping. Hell, they bullied the jasa to find answers lol. It just wasn't the answers they expected to hear.
he wasnt 'manipulating' or 'gaslighting' because he himself knows little about his ex husband -- he dk what the fuck is going on, you cant blame him for considering all options of a deity who was isolated for 1500 years claiming that HE is his exhusband when mc literally has zero recollection of his past (?) life
You know what? You right about this ( ˙ε . )
I agree with this as well. I sat on this for bit and thought WHAT THE FUCK WOULD MY ASS DO IN THIS SITUATION TOO ESPECIALLY IF I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO HELP ANNOYING OLD HEAD OUT?!?! I'd think up as many plausible scenarios as I could (IN MY HEAD OF COURSE) to figure out what might be the result of this conclusion, then I'd prolly express those ideas. So all your statements would indeed make sense HOWEVER I'm not going to blindly agree that manipulation didn't occur because UNINTENTIONAL manipulation is a thing too.
I'm sure everyone have experienced galighting and 9 times out 10 not everyone is aware that they are intentionally or UNINTENTIONALLY are doing something that is coercing or persuading something to think something other than what they know is right. Whether you want to believe it or not the dokkaebi felt insulted and offended because he perceived that he was being made out to be 'delulu' when he has no one to defend his statement but himself and is alone in his matter. Of anyone can feel offended by someone else's imput if it doesn't align with their own however given his situation and the fact that he is indeed all alone anyone would feel that they are being made out be delusional if none of them experienced what that poor guy experienced. I'm just saying Redhead could've been a little considerate of the guy's feelings being that he is indeed very serious in the most direct way and is all alone.
You telling this mother effer "Hyung" bastard, has PURPOSEFULLY contiued to create situations to traumatize or maintain the Major's trauma, and also get him fired, in order to protect the bastard that slaughter his entire squad AND PUT HIS ARMS OUTTA COMMISSION....BECAUSE HE JUST SO HAPPENED TO FALL FOR HIS BROKEN, DRUGGED UP, KINKY ASS?!?!
First of all. This middle finger [( ˙ε . )] is now yours to keep as a momento of my passionate dislike for you...ya rude ass bastard.
And SECOND. I have to say I'm grateful to you because now we got a Major x Soho item happening that wouldn't have occurred if not for your wretched scheming ass. Thank you. BECAUSE YAAAAAAAAY!!! THEY FINALLY ARE PASSED THE TALKING STAGE!!! ꒰ঌ(๑≧ᗜ≦)໒꒱⋆⸜♡⸝⋆
READ THIS LONG ASS OPINION/THEORY AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE. THIS IS A LIGHTLY INFORMATIVE OPINION SO IF YA GET OFFENDED JUST KNOW THAT I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE BITCHING, however I don't mind chatting with other like-minded theorist, just saying this the only warning I'm giving ∠( ᐛ 」∠)＿.
First of all, the fact that Soho can FEEL sensations and was semi-conscious when he was molested by the old man has my alarms ringing. Soho has already experience rape inna bluetooth OR TELEPATHIC sort of way so that realization to him is gonna hit him hard IF and when he finds this out.
Second. HAS NOONE HEARD OF DETROIT BECOME HUMAN?!?! If a robot is sentient that means it can no longer be seen as inanimate and the word "robot" now has a different meaning all together so now it's a race and not a thing. Or it can be a non-binary race/being so the only thing that separates humans and robots in this sense is what material their made out of.
3rd. The human body is allowed to FEEL sensations thanks to the nervous system which is composed out of BILLIONS OF NERVE RECEPTORS WHICH THE BRAIN IS CAPABLE OF COMMUNICATING TO- WITH THE BILLIONS OF NEURONS IT HAS IN ORDER TO MAKE US FUNCTION THE WAY WE DO. So think really hard on how the scientist in this story were probably able to create a sentient robot that can think and FEEL exactly what we THINK AND FEEL.
[In this sense, Soho is literally no diferent than a test-tube baby except he wasn't grow from DNA he was built with an already a complete body- also mixed with SOME DNA. Which also means that just like his body is adult- his mind is that of an adult with amnesia, which to be honest still weirds me out but that's just me.]
They needed a LIVE HUMAN to create an android because they needed the brains neurons to transfer the consciousness to the androids, the same thing is what happened with KID. They used a chip because all a brain is-is a fleshy SD card but imagine the sheer amount of synthetic nerves they had to create in or to cover Soho's entired body in, and ALSO THE SKIN THEY HAD TO CREATE that was capable of synthesizing all of that nerve data so that he can actually FEEL something (like a regular human can). To anyone who's still confused on how Soho can feel something or is wondering what Soho's is feeling physically(?) just caress your entire body with your hands including your fingers and there is your answer.
Swear this story is top tier and is not a hard concept to grasp. Humans aren't the only beings in this world that are caple of feeling something. They ARE however the most lacking in the concept of understanding that other beings can have a conscious and can feel what they are also feeling. What's even more crazy is that they can do even more then what's theorized but can't because they are complacent with just living to their max amount of comfort and basic level of understanding.
