Can't believe this is over </3 . I was never a big A/B/O enjoyer, but I really love how dynamics were explored and how it was seamlessly woven into this world's society and succession politics.
Loved this couple so fricking much. Totally thought I was in for another toxic relationship full of power-imbalances considering this story's start, but I love how quickly I was proven wrong. Adore Seth, love how crazy in-love he was with Theo (literally would make me blush seeing how passionate he was for his man lmao), and I love how Theo would return that love through his actions. They compliment each other soo well! Wish there were more domestic scenes between these two, but I'm happy they're living well with their children.
Gonna miss this story so much!
This manga is like a warm blanket during a cold winter night. Immaculate vibes; ultimate comfort manga.
Lmaoo I started the first chapter without reading the summary and the gender reveals genuinely took me by surprise
Peak character designs!
Finished. Totally worth reading. So happy Akira realized her feelings and confessed <33 I love these two so much!! Sad to see this hasn't updated in a bit, but I'm glad I got to at least see them become a couple after so much heartache!
They're such a nice couple. You'd think they wouldn't mesh well considering their differences, but that what makes it (and them) better! My soul feels so fed every time I see them together <3
That is so creepy! Doubt it was taken with consent, but even if it was, you delete that shit when you're broken up! Send that freak back to the North!
Okay, so I need someone to build me a time machine and send me back to the time when I didn't read this steaming pile of garbage.
Damn. I tend to like side couples more than main couples, but the tak/sanho side stories have shown me that's not always gonna be the case. Actual garbage fire of a series. Could've tied up those loose ends from the main story, but nah, let's get 10+ chapters of an irrelevant, shallow, uncharismatic, rapey nerd with the guy who didn't want to be here for almost half the series.
I love the mesh in art styles so much! 1970s era shoujo and 1980-90s era shounen?? Such a unique concept! The plot is so incredibly cute too! I want to see more (de)lulu and zen moments! Also curious to see how a classically shoujo ML became the JoJo-esque main character he is today xd
Idk how to feel about this. Sibling incest a major ick for me. While I'm NOT against having it featured in fiction, I'm still very particular about how it's portrayed. I guess what bothers me the most in Ruby's case is how little blood bonds stand in the way of her feelings? I totally understand why she loved the Doctor in her past life: he was the only person in her life who treated her like someone who mattered, who was kind in quiet ways that respected Sarina's dignity - I GET that. I get that something broke inside her when she thought she lost the doctor forever, I can't image the level of relief she must have felt when she realized the Doctor had been reincarnated and was by her side all this time.
But the fact of the matter is: he's still her brother. These two have been siblings longer than Sarina has been alive, but this doesn't seem to have any impact on how she views Aqua/the Doctor, nor gives her a sense of hesitancy in pursing him. It's just strange to me. Giving her all that character development, but reverting to "Sarina" when it comes to loving Aqua? I *really* hope the story doesn't leave Ruby here as another girl a part of Aqua's "harem" and actually gives her psyche a deeper dive.
You read my mind, Couldn't word it better. it feels so off i kind of hate the author for making it like this
Exactly!
What im getting from how ruby acts and think is that it’s because she’s simply immature, childish, simple minded. She’s just a teenager after all that only has a glimpse of reality. She’s like a sheltered kid that never knew much about hardships. Unlike Kana who got a taste of harsh reality when she was just a kid so she matured faster.
Even if she was a young teen when she died, she lived another 17-16 (?) years after that with the same mind as the one she had when she passed. That means she's basically at least in her 30s mentally, so can we really excuse her behavior with being "childish"?
Also like how og said, its still weird that blood bounds seem to not be an issue for her. That's not being simple minded and immature, thats just being weird imp
I disagree with her mental age being “30”. She died as a kid who’s locked up in a hospital room due to her illness so she knows absolutely NOTHING about the world. All she knows is that her parents neglected her, Ai who is her idol, her inspiration and hope, and the doctor that somehow made her feel the concept of love, that’s it. She had no room to grow because she was stuck in her bed. So when she reincarnated as Ruby, her mental age is the same as her actual age because that’s the first time she got to experience things. If you will say “Even if that’s the case, she’s still old enough to know what’s right or wrong” Yes but at the same time no. Let’s not forget that Ruby also has traumas, from her being sick, her being neglected, from seeing Ai die and from finding the doctor’s remains. She is not mentally stable and it’s clearly portrayed in the manga. Well ig it’s my fault for only saying that she’s only immature and simple minded on my first reply, I was talking about her nature. But yeah, girls and boys her age don’t know any better. It even happens in real life.
