Surviving In A Broken World Chapter 148 Discussion

I'd say the romance is at a good pace considering MC of them wasn't originally interested in men in general + ML doesn't feel romantic/s*xual desires until MC + and there's a lot more action and plot focus

Spoiler

there is explicit s*x though, it takes a while for them to do penetration since they don't actually know much about gay s*x 😭 the scene finally happens in c145-c148

[collapse]

but essentially you got a MC who's pretty much trying to not die and clings onto the ML w the ML liking it. He figures out pretty quickly that ML has feelings for him in the memories from the future so he does take advantage of it 🫡

MC

Spoiler

He's also a possessive/jealous character

Spoiler

he got jealous of a fake (?) version of himself giving head to the ML and then did it too to get the ML to say he was better lmao

[collapse]

he's the baby of a rich family which dote on him a lot

Spoiler

he gets drunk when he brought ML to meet his family and then started making out w him completely forgetting they were there lmao

[collapse]

he's not a bad guy, but he definitely is less apathetic to people he doesn't care about. He does trick/manipulate people and made up his own religion to be the god of since he gets a stat boost for that so

[collapse]

ML

Spoiler

He's anti-social and pretty much your typical yandere, obsessive ML. He did try to isolate the MC by manipulating others to hate the MC, which completely backfired since MC got beat up and thrown out to get killed by monsters (he got picked up by the og!protag instead)

He's actually cute in the later chapters when their relationship is more secure. He does have darker feelings due to the black room (?) and getting memories of the OG!future (?) him with the MC but doesn't act on them really, plus he stops killing people since he'll just attack the MC instead lol

He uses his face to persuade/appeal the MC a lot because he knows the MC loves his face 😂

If you've read/watched korean stories then yes they've met two times when they were children and it was basically "fate" 😂

[collapse]

when they finally get together officially, it's cute Spoiler

MC has 3 rings (?) and they basically get engaged/married, like completely skipping the boyfriends stage in name 😂

[collapse]

overall it's a enjoyable story, but I read this mtl'd (not great) casually and for fun without thinking too deeply about the plot atp
