Eden: It's an Endless World! Chapter 43 Discussion

I hated him, now I sympathize with him...

That's nice, but it doesn't change what has to be done. "It was like their first love for both of them. Eternally." If only...

That's some pretty fukked up logic, but might just be possible. Pedro is still crazy though.

Fuck, I wasn't expecting to get teary after this chapter.

I want everything to go well for Manuela (hotttness) and Pedro but I know it wont. ;__;



Why on Earth would you want everything to go well for an abused junkie whore and her obsessive abuser?  The whole situation is messed up!



Eljiah has indeed changed since the first chapter, though I'm not sure we can say he's 'matured' just yet.  He's just shifted sideways rather than grown as a person.  At the moment it still seems like he's rushing headlong into another clusterfuck of a situation, although the fact that he's sitting there getting full background information before running into the dark is a sign of maturity at least.

Splendid arc, and really I was almost tearjerking in the chapter!

Not only it has develloped the themes of the drugs, difficult to climb the social ladder when you have a junkie as mother and the recruitment in a gang; but it has also done something that is almost taboo in a lot of story: giving some depths to a villain, not only throwing stereotypical villain that do bad things because he is a bad and bad and pitiful.

And now I'm not even if I should consider him as a villain, sure he has mutilated Helena but his story and relation with Emmanuelle were pure and touching.



Showing his background story just after such cliffhanger where he appeared like the worse guy of the universe was an intelligent move. This confuses and surprise a lot, but I guess reading Eden with conception like villain and good people is rather silly. I should throw it up!
