I don't understand why scans are being uploaded instead when there's an official translation. Scans translations aren't too terrible but they're not great either. Before I get trashed for this with the whole "be grateful anyways bs' I do appreciate them for uploading especially when its the only way to read, but I wish we could go back to the officials. This story and art is so good, wish I had it marinated..
'Entitled' to someone who literally said they appreciate it but asked a question on WHY its the one being uploaded when officials exist. Internet dweller discovers conversations can exist without heavy breathing onto their screen and trying to spread their miserableness around???
Instead of reading all your brain saw was another opportunity to be an ass for no reason. Congrats on that personality. It's giving 'I love to act like I'm not part of the comprehension crisis', it's givinggg 'I'm a better beggar than you, beggars can't be choosers!' Lmao congrats on that
Storys starting with a future scene as their prologues have existed since forever. It's an easy way to intrigue the reader. But, let's imagine the story just starts there like half the comments want it to. With their relationships already established and her leaving.. won't readers then find something even easier to complain about? Like: "hey, why's the story starting in the middle? Why do I keep having to see flashbacks to get context of what's going on and why this person feels like this and why they regret etc. The pacing is terrible!" And yeah, the pacing would be terrible since it's a cliche story with nothing else going on other than the guilty pleasure of mls regretting.
Other character driven storys like this have tried to just start in the future and have had to use flashbacks constantly to show how things developed. Which would be fine, if these storys weren't entirely based off relationships between characters, with less than minimal other plot going on. Not only that, since it's driven by relationships and characters, what's the point if we only see half of their relationship? Won't it be too shallow and surface level then? Won't the regret of letting go of the fmc, not hit the same? Comments make it sound worse than it is, it's literally just one scene of them in the future.
Disagree, I came in here thinking this would focus on the aftermath and how we see her actually find a lover outside of the main cast (as was advertised), but it’s just generic slop. They can do this by showing flashbacks or smth. Take my inlaws are obsessed with me as an example; we didn’t see all her relationship with her stepmother, but through the flashbacks or the narrative style, it made you see the bond they had. Now compare that to this? It’s nothing unique, story-wise and stylistic-wise. If you click on any other Isekai Manhwa, you’ll find that this is the same the rest, dragging it out for god knows how long.
The premise was nice, but the execution is just nothing new. That’s probably why most people are complaining. But I get it, it’s what you like to read than that’s okay. It’s just not my, or most other commenters (I guess), cup of tea. Just a bit disappointing is all.
Wait I know you mentioned the overuse of flashbacks, but it really depends on the execution. Overall, I guess the main complaint I have with this story is the execution. But the premise didn’t hook me as a “all the mls are gonna regret this!” Story. I just thought they would be friends. Honestly, they need to make a story where the og mls help fl find her true love. There’s never male-female friends in these stories…always slave -master or they actually like her! Or idk. Maybe I had a set of different expectations.
The cover shows the same characters as the first scene. The synopsis doesn't really hint at a story ur expecting either. It's a cliche, but it never promised to be anything it's not. And yeah, like I said u said I mentioned, the execution of contanst flashbacks would be the deal maker or breaker but let's face it, it's usually the deal breaker. U mentioned a story that's the exception but thats kudos to the writer that pulled it off and wanted to write something different. This doesn't sound like u really disagree, more like u wanted the story to be something else when it sadly isn't.
I would only call ai slop, slop. This is just mainstream and generic. It's hard finding a story that's not tbvh, esp considering whatever is popular is whatever companies push and overwork their artists for, even artstyles. And agreed on the female-male friendships. I feel like.. I'm sure I've read romance stories were some characters were just friends and help eachother but they're DEFINITELY a rare find.
Also, the complaints were mostly people who "couldn't wait to get the good part." Basically, not really that they wanted something different.. just that they wanted to skip to it lol.
I WISH I didn't read the comments on this WDYM THERES A BULLYING ARC AHHHHH NOOOOO
I just binged the whole 1st season omg.. and the brain dead comments are taking sides when its BOTH their faults (Jun for assuming the role of a 'savior' with his superiority complex. His intentions are utilmately to help him but he went about it in the worst way. Idc what anyone yes that IS wrong of him. And obv Yohans crazy ass for immediately resorting to violence and threats.)
God I feel so bad for both of them too BUT ur actually as dumb crazy as Yohan if u think Jun made the wrong thing BY RUNNING AWAY. FROM SOMEONE HURTING HM. AND POSSIBLY DONE WORSE IF HE HADNT LEFT?? ALSO did u not realize Jun saw the shadow of someone in his pupil before he panicked?? He is TERRIFIED of anyone else finding out about his gay secret. that's been the majority of his character arc now. He panicked and he left and yeah Yohan IS pitiful but ARE U DUMB HE CAN BE PITIFUL AFTER HES PUT THOSE HANDS AND TEETH AWAY. Ugh my heart hurts for season 2.... I don't want a bullying arc.. this hurts
SIDE NOTE THO I absolutely adore how well written the characters are. They're morally grey, with fears AND strengths. Enjoyable to read. CALL ME WHEN THE ISSUES OF S2 ARE RESOLVED I WILL NOT TORMENT MYSELF WITH NO BULLYING ARC AND CLIFFHANGERS THAT WOULD COME WITH IT.
This manhwa wouldn't be the same in the hands of a different artist. This artist made it look so fantastic it would be impossible to recreate all the incredible atmosphere that she was able to make in each panel. All the characters were oozing charisma, even the ones we didn't want to root for.
Sadly, the fate of this is now completely unknown.
Let me state this as a HUGE early on fan of Roxana: I don't care anymore if this never gets a continuation.
I love this manhwa with my whole being but what happened to the artist is much bigger than that now. The level of cruelty and irony to take parental leave yourself and yet push all that stress on your pregnant employee and refuse her taking any time off after a miscarriage that was probably caused from stress of work I genuinely do not have anymore words for this kind of garbage I'm disgusted, I'm furious, I'm sadly not in shock that assholes like this exist but I'm still disappointed.
I hope she sues. And I hope she heals. Wishing the best for the artist. And sincerely, fuck Kakaoshit.








PLEASE SAY YES PLEASEEEE SAY YESSS
LITERALLY BEEN A DAY 1 FAN AND ROXANAS HAD ME IN A CHOKEHOLD EVER SINCE PLEASEEE SAYYY YESSSS
