I ship gerosaki alot I need it endgame but it bothers me on tv tropes they put in the Not love interest trope on kinosaki tv trope page I mean I get the logic but i get the person who put it there doesn’t ship it or is convinced sense kinosaki male and they put the logic sense Gero needs to end up with someone who can produce an air i get it’s the plot of the manga but I think it’s presumptuous to put that there but there’s so much ship tease between them how can It just not be endgame
I know it’s possible they couldn’t be endgame it’s just it be good writing and a fresh change of paste from this kind of manga and again I’d only accept it as endgame if they don’t do a stupid twist that kinosaki was a real cis gender woman lying about being a guy that be horrible twist and ruin everything I’m still afraid they might do it why cover up his breast when showing that scar in chapter 100 what’s the point it just scares me and puts doubts on my mind. Like there’s so many ways they could do something amazing here or just ruin it for me that I’ll Never Trust again.

Archon rambles because I saw some people complain about Zhongli and Venti having no "character development" during their archon quests.
For me, when you criticize the role of the archon in their quest, you have to consider the following:
The Archon's divine domain
The world-building of their nation
Their people (playable and NPC)'s characterization
Their maturity as archons
Of course, their divine domains pretty much have a lot of influence of their nation and it's people. The seven elements are pretty much one of the core parts of the story.
There's their characterization when it comes to their people. All of it are different..More importantly, consider their ages.
Zhongli and Venti are the remaining of the Original Seven. Their characters have already developed long enough especially as archons. Their roles pretty much was to help traveler as the outlander. They know a LOT and are hiding a lot for the sake of their people and in preparations for going against the divine. They have long been comfortable how to become archons for their people. Essentially, they're like the Wise Sage an adventurer meets in a journey.
Of course, they're like that because they are part of the original seven. For the following archons, it's pretty much different. Ei and Focalor had to become the next archons after the Catalycism.
Ei, who dehumanized herself, who struggles seeing herself capable of the gentleness and wisdom she viewed Makoto had and combined with her grief over losing Makoto. Focalor who had to shoulder the death sentence and find a way to break the prophecy. Furina, who took on a role for the sake of her nation. Of course their stories had massive room for development.
Especially Nahida, whose birth signalled the death of her predecessor. After Zhongli and Venti, we are faced with archons who had to follow the footsteps of their amazing predecessors. Archons who were humans taking burdens too much for humans.
So yeah, I think its not reasonable to say Zhongli and Venti are bad for not having development when their characters arent meant to tell that kind of story.
people who got upset over love is an illusion's writing choices is so funny to me bc as if the main couple isnt like a victim getting together and his financial situation used for him to give birth to his rapist's child.... and a lot more questionable narrative choices on the other couples
Jinhyeong is such a good example of a character who is actively trying to get better (which I think a lot of manhwas try to do with their male leads but fail) while not pushing around their partner to the point of abuse.
Like yes! Uyun helps him grow and heal but Uyun stands on his ground when he doesn't want something.
Another thing that I love is that Jinhyeong is fully aware of how his actions hurt people he loves and how he ended up like that and his relationship with his parents. It adds flavor because he is very much aware of how and why his relationships with Song Rik and Cheong-a had failed and how it affected his relationship with Uyun.
In fact, we can see foreshadowing of how his past relationships culminated into what he is in the present. His authorative and strictness coming from his father, his fear of abandonment despite knowing his wrongs coming from his failed relationships with Song Rik and Cheong-a, his reliance on acting like a "normal" person from the expectations of his father and Cheong-a.
Jinhyeong is not a completely good person but that doesn't make him evil either. He's such a great example of how his living conditions molded him into what he is. I guess in a sense, I'm saying he's pretty much a "our worst moments don't make us monsters" type.
is this a safe space to say that I think the cover lineup for the 3rd anniversary kinda sucks (except for wiege mizisua, black sorrow hyuna, and karma hyuluka)
