tried to hold on for as long as i could but im dropping this. where’s the fun in a story where the protagonist has no agency and is just being pushed around by the ML and the antagonists? there’s no climax or pay off, i honestly couldn’t care less about the backstory build up. it just feels like misery porn for the sake of it. having read spoilers, it’s a bit silly that such a miserable story ends in a happily ever after… haven’t personally read how it goes down in the novel but the spoilers bullet points just tells me that this sort of ending hasn’t been earned. the mc is just a toy who gets battered and bruised consistently and i’m bored of it
i’m just reading this again after letting it marinate for years and i don’t understand why the bottom betrayed the top??? he quite literally gained nothing from that whole ordeal, am i supposed to believe that someone as smart as the mc would rely on a psychopath who taxidermies living things over the ML who isn’t great but still obviously better than his cousin? just feels like misery porn for the sake of it
i feel like bada’s name meaning “bloodlust” and his design stands out too much to be have originally been an NPC, it lowkey doesn’t add up. i’m not sure whether he was an OG player who was playing before the rest of them or if he’s some kind of hidden mastermind who got stuck in the game or if he’s even the game developer but it feels like the truth is more complicated than we think







i didn’t know how they’d make it back together seeing how messy things were at the start of the season but i don’t think nanjo could deny how deep mok’s feelings are for him when he cries so honestly and has visible lost so much weight since they last spoke. it’s gonna take them a lot more to properly date and enter an official relationship but this is definitely a start
