just some omniscient reader’s viewpoint things:
‘i need to use other people in order to survive’ says kim dokja, as he sacrifices himself for others for the 2435432343th time
yjh: ‘i should’ve left you on that bridge where you were dangling’
kdj: ‘but ‘cha didn’t‘
lee gilyoung making a deal with a literal demon and that not being a big deal until like, the last quarter of the book
also the recurring theme of kdj being like ‘im worried lgy is gonna snap he’s getting kind of intense’ while the other characters are like ‘this small bundle of horrifying insects and paper-thin grip on reality is kdj’s kid? yeah that tracks’
han sooyoung, upon seeing the apocalypse: hell yeah it’s hsy time babey *proceeds to make a cult*
kdj calling yjh his ‘life and death companion’ as like, a joke lie in the beginning and becoming their literal mythological name and a huge emotional thread
that time yoo sangah literally reached out of the fourth wall to slam yoo joonghyuk’s dumb bitch face into the wall
kdj in the landlords arc being like ‘maybe if landlords want to have rights they should’ve contributed to society :)))’
angels canonically being unable to swear because of a irl filter like they’re in the good place
han myungoh’s entire character arc being like ‘i WAS an awful rich man but after giving birth i have decided to embrace single motherhood’.
orv in the peaceland arc: what if we spent an entire arc calling out japanese imperialists
kdj: *tricks kyrgios into becoming his mentor and then steals his technique via a cheat skill*
kyrgios: i hate you. you’re my disciple now
anyone, including kdj himself: *gives kdj love and/or validation*
kdj: what is that, gross, keep doing it
lee gilyoung simply refusing to believe kdj is dead every time he sacrifices himself
persephone deciding that the best way to bond with the kid she wants to adopt is to dress up as the girl she thinks he has a crush on and interrogate his sexual preferences
jang hayoung being a enby icon
the end of the mass production maker’s arc ultimately being to redistribute his resources
that time when yoo joonhyuk coped with kim dokja’s death by becoming a terrorist
han sooyoung having an enemies to lovers vibe with literally everyone she meets (but especially yoo sangah *gets clocked in the face*)
kdj every day in the apocalypse: i am going to wake up and Choose Chaos
