how do you use these?

Put these on the top layer above everything, set layer to 'overlay' then adjust opacity. You can put it on whatever opacity you want but usually 30%+ is most effective.

The point is to obstruct the picture so AI can't read your image because AI counts every single pixel in your art

I keep seeing people in the Apothecary Diaries fandom argue that the story isn’t a romance , especially on TikTok. At this point, it just feels like denial… and a little bit misogynistic. A story can have strong worldbuilding, good mysteries and still be a romance. Why are people so allergic to enjoying romance?

Romance is one of the most dismissed and devalued genres out there, often because it’s coded as “feminine” or made for women. People will praise action, mystery, or psychological drama as “serious storytelling,” but romance? Suddenly it’s “cringe” or “not the point.” That’s misogyny. The idea that a story loses value the moment feelings or attraction are involved—especially when told from a woman’s perspective—isn’t neutral criticism. It’s part of a larger pattern of treating stories centered on women’s emotions and desires as less worthy.

Anyone who's read a lot of manga, especially shōjo or josei, can clearly see how many romance tropes were baked into the story from the very first chapters/episodes. Sure, it’s published as a seinen, but it borrows heavily from shōjo/josei storytelling.

So yeah. I hope these people get over themselves and admit they’re just enjoying a well-written romance with extra plot XD

The fact that Jinshi came back for Maomao after everything is the consolation she needed.

She lost her job, and got separated from her friends and colleagues. He may have hid his identity from her, but his feelings toward her are genuine. He loves her. It wasn't a pastime thing for him, he truly wants her. It's real.
