They remind me so much of Katniss and Peeta from The hunger games
Is it because of their power dynamic in the relationship?
Not really. It's bcuz of their dynamic yk. Black cat golden retriever thing. Also similar how Peeta was in love 1st and Katniss was just dealing with her own stuff. And the character design too. Except Katniss isn't that small nor is Peeta that big
I kind of want him to get a gf so he could "give his parents their dream grandchildren". But then again I also want him to have a bf so it's ironic since he's been trying to avoid it all the time and by the end realizes he's also one of the characters. IDK ANYMORE
And also Hatano would fit MC quite well despite being a "BL character". He seems the most normal and like a real person trying to date/win another person and not just some trope. Like he doesn't push him to accept and actually is very reasonable and upfront with his feelings (like how he understands dating underage is not okay and is willing to wait, not like the MC would date someone underage anyways, but you know he kind of gets it realistically wise) . Or the mind reader would be fun too since it would be a very interesting dynamic between a person who knows the world is BL and someone who also knows AND can read minds (tho I do have an inkling that the mind reader would be paired up with the fudanshi)
Ngl can imagine the fudanshi and the mind reader being dating and the fudanshi be thinking of dirty stuff and the mind readers like “
Is it just me or does it feel like the empress and emperor's love story is a little forced?? I think it's partly because we see things from the MC perspective so we don't get a lot of insight into what they do. But it also feels really forced and fake like the emperor is supposed to be an ancient being how is he going to catch feelings so easily. And I also expected the empress to be more mother-like, she's barely there, I mean I know she's trying to build a safe environment and future for her daughter but she also has to know the mental damage she has done and try to communicate more with her daughter more? At this point it's not really a redemption but more of a throw the MC into a good environment surrounding her with friendly people and call it a day, because at the end of the day she barely did anything to really fix her relationship with her daughter. And don't come at me with the "you only say this because she's a female and not with other mangas where there's a neglectful father" because I judge them as well okkkkk!!?!
If you read another manhwa where the fem mc married a 'cold' duke or something you can get the understanding on how a man can fall in love with these type of woman cuz yknow they're 'different' from the rest of the flirty noble but as you said this manhwa heavily relied on the little kid instead of the mother so yeah maybe we don't get to see but maybe there's something that the mother do making the emperor falling in love on how 'different' she are maybe cuz she's bold, brave, or something that woman that centuries can't do
simply becauae it's fictional, strong and mysterious and ruthless characters always fall in love in these manhwas, it's a very typical thing
Well, imo it's because we see things from Lyrica's pov, there's also a lot of time skips so we didn't know how much the empress and emperor actually interact, also there's prob a lot of things the empress done behind the scene like noble things.
When you read normal stories where we follow the one that when back in time, you not always know what lesser character do, in this manwha, Lyrica is that lesser character.
It's very interesting tbh, seeing stuff from side character pov, also if you notice the scene in this manwha almost 90% following Lyrica so yeah, we didn't know what happened to the 'main' characters when the pov is following her.
Agreee
Is he really doing it because he's taking responsibility and loves the little brother or is he doing it to ease his own guilt? Which is selfish because you let the older brother take care of him for most of his life and then you just show up and take him back. Like no it doesn't work like that. At this point the older brother basically is the parent/guardian, so what gives YOU the right to just come in and ruin their relationship. Or at least if you do take him, give them communication and also compensation for the older brother because he essentially became your son's parental figure and raised him for all his life. Meanwhile struggling himself as well. And he didn't even consider the fact that when he left, what would have become of his son, would he be dead or would he be up for adoption?? Just sayin (〜￣△￣)〜.
Bruh at this point ceaser salad is making me so drained if i were lee won i wouldve fallen out of Love and be sick of his stupid ass.
Spoilers
He literally graped lee won yet again on the upcoming chapter 28 and 29. Like are you joking with me rnnnn????? Like honestly I'm giving him a chance because in the beginning he was really attractive but now he's such a turn-off. He makes me sick in the stomach while reading. Normally it would be really cute or the bare minimum that you feel safe around your partner but all LW feels around Caesar is vigilance because he can literally shoot him at any second??? I would literally go insane if I dated someone like that.
Honestly I get that this is a realistic interpretation of a mafia (okay not that realistic because we will never know). But still it's so draining to read. No hate though I still enjoy it ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Just gotta ask, are we talking regular chapters or the side story on the graping since you mentioned 28 ans 29? Would love to see spoilers while I'm antsy waiting for juju's releases lol.
Also ye, fs agree with you. Sometimes, I read shit like this and just think to myself 'I'd rather die than be with a volatile person who makes me feel unsafe ???' LW just reminds me there is no way shit like this flies well 99% of the time irl unless both were so insane for each other lol.
Extra part 28 and 29 is what I meant. Our current extra is at extra part 21 i think (or 20)
Ah yea I assumed as much. Idk what were expecting from Caesar, fs he'd just fall into his lil volatile mafia bravado whenever faced with a bit of LW rejection. Mans cant take a chill pill lol
╮(￣▽￣)╭
Omg not Shizuma being traumatized about yuka cheating and breaking up cuz she's lonely. Like her feeling lonely and neglected bcuz Shizuma was busy absolutely VALID. BUT CHEATING?????? MAAM! If you can't handle it i advice you to just break up. Thats incredibly selfish of you. Now I'd feel bad for you if shizuma was out partying or smth but NAHHHH MATE THE GUY WAS JUST TRYING TO GRIND. And like shizuma not feeling resentment and even blame's himself for that???? Bro???? Are you dumb?? He kinda is actually judging from the fact he keeps fumbling Minato . Yuka go KYS
Nah fr I hate yuka so muchm honey being lonely doesn't excuse cheating...and even after cheating she still expects him to cater to her every whim
Fr omg
Unfortunately this shit is common if one lover works more hours than the other lover in a relationship.
Mf b*tch LEAVE HIM ALONE. WHINY AHHH MF WHYD YOU TELL HIS MOM THATS NOT VERY "STRONG HEROINE" OF YOU YOU HYPOCRITE
And to follow up on this, BAD MAN?? Her relationship seems to be with his mom solely. She knows nothing about him to be calling him that, other than through her BS stalking. Hoping our boy can get out soon (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
Def Lady Delulu, not Delota lmao
Ik the whole thing is a misunderstanding and what Heeseo did was "frustrating". But to me he wasn't, Jingeon was. Even tho it was a misunderstanding, dating a person you know ( thought ) your best friend liked is so horrible?! And knowing the fact his ex dumped him bcuz of the same reason??!!!Like do you know how fcked up that is? And he has always been so nice to you too!!?! I just couldn't swallow that. I didn't hate Heeseo at all. In fact I hated the MC. Personally if this happened to me in real life, knowing my best friend dated a person they thought I liked behind my back even though I didn't like them, it would have told me what kind of person they are. Id drop that "friend". Also even though he thought Heeseo liked him, he still acted so lovey dovey and possessive towards the crush????? Like at least have the decency to hide it or if you have developed feelings for that person might as well just tell your best friend out right like what a horrible mc and you expect me to like him??? Heeseo is a victim no cap
hey bitch,you're not Jinyeon so stfu,you don't know the situation he's in bitch
Woah no need to get so heated my god. And what is his situation exactly, liking someone his best friend liked, and proceeding to date that person behind their back knowing the fact that his best friend's ex left him because they liked him, the guilt from that alone would have stopped any normal person from dating the person their best friend liked especially behind their back????? And sure if he liked them so much to the point he wants to date them then ask the best friends opinion first! would you really just risk your whole relationship with someone who's genuine about you for some random person you like????? sure his best friend didn't like the guy bcuz this is a misunderstanding but what if he did????? If you support any of his behavior I'm sorry for your in real life friends. And it's totally okay to like a character because of their flaw and I don't judge you for liking the main character but you don't have to go out of your way to hate on me even though I already stated that this is just my opinion and I don't intend to hate on the author????? Anyways I hope you have a nice day knowing the fact that you're so negative about anything and that's why you probably hate yourself
And the fact that you talk as if he's a real person even though he's a character that you and I obviously read from the same story is hilarious to me
And FYI I do understand his situation. Because I was in this situation too but instead of doing what he did and backstabbing his best friend I actually told my best friend about this and my best friend didn't like it so I kept my distance and after a while she gave up on that crush and allowed me to continue pursuing that person. Even if I wasn't so lucky that she gave up I still wouldn't have ruined my relationship for another person that I barely know about ╮(￣▽￣)╭ . And also because in the story The crush didn't even like the best friend so it would have totally been okay after the best friend confessed and got rejected and THEN he can pursue them (even though this is a misunderstanding). I totally understand that human emotions is a fickle thing so his actions aren't that hard to understand, BUT you should still know that what he did is morally wrong. Because imagine if that happened to you in real life wouldn't it totally break your trust between you and your friend(⊙…⊙ ) . Anyways I just want to say that I have no intention to send hate towards you either, I'm just trying to explain my opnion, so I do hope that you won't send hate to other people like how you did towards me because if you do people are going to send negative feedbacks back and judging by your personality you're just going to get more heated and exhaust yourself more. Bye-bye I'm done now
I really like how u handled that, very professional and still delivered wish more ppl like u existed cuz ur actually one of the few sane ppl I stumbled upon this site other than crazy fujoshis and toxic red flags
