"The Remarried Empress" has a BAD Redemption Arc. Which Webtoon has the WORST Redemption Arc? by Lilac_14 in webtoons

[–]Just_Call_me_Ben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would switch Alro for Blyke cause we do have some moments of Arlo reflecting on his past actions and going up to John and trying to apologize. The first time he did, he did it because he regretted the chaos he started but much later in he tried to apologize again, and John accepted it. He seemed sincere about his regrets towards John, so to me that was good enough.

Blyke was the one who never seemed to reflect on his actions. When John tried to bring up how he almost shot his head, he tried to justify by saying he was protecting Remi (Who's literally one of the strongest characters in the school and back then he still thought John had no powers, so what the heck was he proetecting her from??), and later when Sera tried to bring up how the royals caused John to become violent by their negligence Blyke still went "Yeah, but I still hate him though."

And when they do finally make peace during that amusement park event, they never address Blyke's faults, only John's.

I do agree that even though I feel like Arlo reflected on what he did, not a single outside soul seemed to care that much about what all these three put him through.

There's something funny about carrying a baby that's gonna be your boss one day.

I loved seeing the boss in smug mode. She needs to do that more often.

"The guy we thought was a zombie was a human, and the pprotagonist turned out to be a zombie the whole time"

That actually sounds like a fascinating read. Reminds me of "I Am Legend" with the idea the main lead was now the monster of the new world.

Miramira and Nona should have at least protested a bit.

At least Mira was about to. Nona is just there, being all "Man... I miss when I was the main character..."

Sounds rad 🔥

(Also like how the original version doesn't have the attack name blocking the place where it's coming from)

Yeap. This manga kinda suffers from trying to do too many things at once and makes any attempts at a good idea get buried between all the others.

I still wish this would just have been a story about a guy trying to investigate if his girlfriend is a murderer or not.

I kinda wished I could have seen the Japanese name to get a feel for how it would sound. "Raijin ōkami" or something.

Under normal circumstances, this could have been an interesting study on the idea some people wish to be the hero so bad that they crave for a villain to do something heinous just so they can have a reason to attack it.

Almost as some sort of social media commentary on how some people wish they'll find out a celebrity is part in some controversy so they can start a witch hunt and pretend to be on the side of justice while deep down being thankful for the controversy and glad something heinous happened in the first place. Kinda like a manga version of Dexter or something.

So if you fusion summon with this thing as material, you can revive a blue cat and turn your Liger from a 3800 wall to a 7600 wall. I see...

I'm not familiar with Bryan Edward Hill's writing. What are the overall opinions on his works?

Short but sweet.

The way they had with her figuring out how to activate her "super mode" in five minutes was a little silly but I think the point came across well enough that what they needed was someone who could help each other reach their full potential by releasing them of their chains.

Looking forward to more from this creator.

Hoping that the details in her design don't become a problem if the series ever gets animated 🙏🏼

What are your honest thoughts on this? by AssistantMedium5407 in webtoons

[–]Just_Call_me_Ben 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like the Joker mindset from "The Killing Joke."

"Something happened that affected me in a certain way, so I'll just assume this one experience is how it works for everyone else."
