The childhood friend is obsessive, which I thought could be interesting. Like, why is he obsessed? What are things he does because of this? But when I read what he does it felt like he was strangely distant towards Tachi, the person he's supposedly obsessed with. For example, he's obsessed with Tachi but he goes out of his way to ignore him and spend time with their classmates instead, he even tells Tachi 'school is different'. When I first read this, I thought he was doing this to get a rise out of Tachi, or being purposefully mean. But the story seems to show him constantly with a pained expression, like it's Tachi who did something wrong/not understanding. So my confusion is, why do this? Why ignore Tachi the whole day, then act obsessed getting all up in there tasting his vomit after school Why do this? Just hang out with Tachi in school! he's already shown he can't really make friends on his own and if y'all hang he won't be mad at you, ain't he the most important guy to u?
On a separate note, I really hope Tachi learns how to communicate to people. I've experienced fake people before, it's never pleasant when they act super close when they want to and drop you when it's inconvenient, it sucks! So I get where Tachi is coming from, that he resents childhood friend for doing this and not taking the hint to shoo! But it's clear he doesn't really know how to express his emotions effectively, and it's in the way of his goal; to break free from childhood friend and connect with others.
Overall, I hope the author drops some context to why these two act like this, cuz as of right now I'm not very sure why Tachi is so awkward (not that there's anything wrong with that!) and why childhood friend is so contradictory (there's alot wrong with that...)
I think that is one of the manipulation methods Haruki uses. He deliberately confused Taichi (and readers) to make Taichi think about him all the time and make Taichi keep wondering what the meaning behind his behavior was, he selfishly just wants to make Taichi worry about his behavior only. And still don't want Taichi have a friends even though he knows Taichi can't really make friends lol
I've been accumulating frustration alongside Garam, I just wanna reach into the pages and tell him "boy, you worth more than what this man is putting you through!!"
Omg stop baiting and stab Yea already to some extent I get the jealousy. but she's so focused on herself and her pain, being unreasonable af. ur experiences don't make it normal to wanna kill random people oml
Yeah, both of their traumas r different and both r valid but it doesn’t excuse their actions. And I think the mc is way too unreasonably kind…If it wasn’t for his plot armour, he would’ve died long ago lol
I felt so bad for her.. she was so desperate to cover her face, she didn't even notice how injured she was then immediately after she went after the new girl tryna kill her
Well she was trying to force her power on them too…so they only attacked her as self-defence, she literally started all of these in the first place…I felt so bad for her too, but they have every reason to attack her to protect themselves…
Yeah I agree~ I mean I felt bad for her until she started going after the new girl (pink hair), my sympathy dissipated so fast :p
I always do the "sigh + stare into the sunset" combo after finishing a chapter
Why the conductor acting like a cult leader y'all... the love bombing and the pull and push on the members is crazy work
he wants to be loved and recognized for hoe special he is. the person he needs it from is the prof, the people he gets it from are the orchestra people and some if his peers. what the prof tried to tell him over and over again since he first taught him: compton truly needs to concentrate on himself and to find everything he seeks from the outside within himself
Reall, I just finished chapter 200 and saw the resolution for this arc, I truly hope to see the conductor explore his own world so he can understand what he hopes to convey with his music
These men bro istg what's their problem The power and privileges they have deadass sickens me, using it to blame others for their actions istg the dad and the crown prince and the oldest son pmo
Ch16 right now, MY ONE (of many) WEAKNESS DOOMED SIBLINGS NOOOO
wait but why the hay is everyone saying it's mc's fault that's dumb asf The mom had her own autonomy and made a decision to get a divorce and it unfortunately it ended in tragedy
by blaming mc as a curse, they disregard the mom as a person. They ignore the reasons she felt that way and her circumstances, simplifying it as a sudden and unseen curse. But the root of the issue was always the duke. The duke was the one to cheat years ago, and the one who used his affair child as a tool to prevent his own daughter from harm
It feels as though they subconsciously choose to side with their family (I'm assuming they're not dumb) because it's easier to blame someone you already see as an outsider than find fault in people you love
