Spending almost 40 chapters reading about a ML falling for someone who acts as though she's suffering from mental illness and therefore has been reduces to to the mentality of a 5 year old is giving off all the wrong vibes. She might only be acting but he doesn't know that. Just NO, already a bad start
[collapse]The second world was better but then I started to see a trend with the happenings in the real world.SpoilerIn between world hopping the MC will win 30 days in the real world but then for one s*upid reason or another she'll only be able to spend a few moments awake. What's the point of her waking up just to fail again in warning about the offenders ??? It's just annoying.
And more than that, we discover that all these worlds are for the purpose of teaching the real world ML to feel?! Why is her death/survival revolved around him?! It would have been another thing if he'd just dreamed about their times together and grew to love her while she's in a coma but this way the entire thing revolves entirely around him instead of being about her saving herself.
[collapse]At that point I just gave up. This is just not for meI think my main issue is this:SpoilerIn all the worlds it seems the MC makes ML love her to a such a degree that it completely destroys him when she dies. And while that can be/is touching to read it just feels empty and cruel when you see that MC has no personal care for him except the desire to complete the mission. I assume eventually she'll develop feelings for him but the damage is done by then.
Reading over and over again about how he falls desperately in love with her because she does everything in her power to make it so just feels extremely manipulative and disingenuous.
[collapse]I tried giving this story another chance by reading later arcs but it seems the extremely manipulative feeling remains strong. I just end up feeling sorry for the ML and more and more dislike for the MC even though all her other traits are ones I like.
