This Scum Is Not Worthy Of White Washing Chapter 7 Discussion

Fun enough, so far. How-e-ver...I really want to make fun of the ML this arc.

'He coldly stared' this and 'his expression was cold' that. His cold expression had to have been mentioned at least four times a chapter. Why is a popsicle ML? He's not even a CEO yet, just some jobless rich guy mooching off his parents, thinking about starting a business. I'd rather ship MC with his own system, at this rate.

Docked 1 star for a cringey ML, a too-s*upid-to-be-real villain Spoiler

(yeah, I orchestrated the deaths of his whole family and laughed in his face when I told him so, but he MUST still love me, how could he not?)

[collapse]

and a nonsensical original plot where Spoiler

the original body forgave his family's intentional killer and stayed in a relationship with him.

May give the fifth star back if future arcs are better.

*Future self*

How do I give the fifth star back?! I need to give it back!

I somehow missed the 'seme protagonist' tag. So... the uke male lead being sold as your typical domineering ML with 'coldness' being used for every other adjective and adverb was actually the setup to a joke. I shouldn't have taken the story so seriously when I first reviewed. Comedy is not one of the tags given, but it's definitely in there.
