whole Lotta yapping. how do you let ONE character ruin an experience for you. The story isn't even fully focused on the romance. What a joke of a review.
I like that Summary... they went all out.
Update: My review underwent significant changes due to plot developments that dramatically altered the story.
Before diving in, it's important to note that the story revolves around a male lead (ML) with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), not schizophrenia. The narrative can be harsh, given the treatment he receives from others during that era, with instances of derogatory names like "fool" and "stupid." Characters, including family members, display disrespect. However, the female lead (FL) treats the ML with care, despite her lack of professional knowledge about his condition.
Some readers criticize the FL for not researching more about DID, given her modern background. It's understandable, but considering the limitations of the time and her personal circumstances, it's unrealistic to expect her to be an expert. It's unfair to judge the story harshly based on this aspect.
Now, focusing on the story itself, the protagonist finds herself in her favorite book as a character, aiming to change events and support the ML. The MC is driven, seeking a comfortable life, and uses her future knowledge to navigate their journey. She's cunning, determined, and humorous at times.
My enjoyment of the MC and ML waned after a particular turning point related to the ML's DID and his three personalities. The FL spends most of her time with the rough, gangster-like third personality, while the others receive less attention. It would have been better if the MC engaged more with the other personalities before they fade away, showcasing her growth.
The portrayal of the family members, particularly their role in the ML's trauma, is distressing. The revelation that they contributed to the ML's condition and even sold him for abuse adds to the somber tone.
Despite the intense drama and the MC's cunning, the story doesn't rely solely on her powers, which is refreshing. She does rely on others, which is a redeeming quality. Other characters are more peripheral as the focus remains on the ML's DID and its impact.
While I'd rate the story 3 or 3.5 stars, I won't change my overall rating. It's not uninteresting, but the emotional downturn as the story progressed left me feeling somewhat disappointed.
In summary, the story explores complex themes, but its execution could have delved deeper into the development of other characters, particularly those surrounding the ML. Despite its flaws, it offers a unique perspective with a cunning protagonist.
The story lived up to its one-shot nature, with events unfolding at breakneck speed – perhaps a bit too hastily for my taste. The concept was intriguing, but the lack of depth in the narrative hindered my full enjoyment. The development of FL and ML's relationship felt underwhelming, as their chemistry was insufficiently portrayed, leaving me unable to fully grasp their love connection. Additionally, ML's sudden shift in demeanor raised questions about their character consistency. I believe a longer story would have allowed for a more gradual exploration and a deeper connection between the characters.
good read!I enjoyed it!
Are there going to be more chapters uploaded?
dropped at 209 might come again but rn im bored with things getting repeatative
To answer translator question: Steel is iron with a carbon content (usually between 1% - 2%) However, it is rarely used this way in today world. For example, stainless steel is an alloy of steel and chromium and Spring steel usually use manganese. Pure steel, as the name suggest, is steel that has not been made into an alloy and used as is, which is rather uncommon nowadays.
I try to make a chapter a day; if not, I will upload a chapter the next day without question...I must give myself a decent rating; I'm writing the darn thing. I hope that out of everything this story does, it's at least interesting. Thank you to anyone who checks it out.
