The things she did before the 2 years ghosting were understandable(though dumb as fuck) and could be solved, but everything that happens after that is not.
Omg yes! Like she didn't even move and inch when she heard the location which she sent him was dangerous. Hell, she didn't even rush over to make sure he was well, til after he passed out. With no apology or any for him to read when he woke up. Instead she just left for another mission. Meanwhile MC is left to deal with the demon she failed to kill, not fully knowing the full extent of his powers or if he could actually handle it. Which btw said demon took on the entire party and they struggled to win while the mc was alone. Yet, he's still a good enough friend to save her not once but TWO FUCKING TIMES. (Once from the goblin the second being the dragon blast) she says she cares but I haven't seen a single thing to prove otherwise. Also fuck off she was fine with taking the king's daughter and son but not her childhood friend into dungeons. And then begins to take low level adventurer into her guild to train them.should have done that for the friend if she cared so much.
i mean there's only so long you can drag out a misunderstanding before it gets annoying, this may even just be a reason to explain the MC's personality.
peoples trauma dont just heal over night, sure he may know that she didn't do it on purpose but his mind hasn't actually recovered from it. sasha's mind did, we have physical proof that her mind recovered from her getting stronger... but the mc did not get stronger after that.
To explain, most of this manga adaptation is bad, it leaves out every little bit of the darker and gritty elements, trying to turn this story into another shonen pegi 13 rating story.
And Im ok with that but the pacing is so god damn fast that it looks like she is just gaslighting him to forgive her and use him as her emotional sponge. She did absolutely nothing to gain his forgiveness. Not approaching him or leaving a letter for 2 years after sending him to die like that is not looking good for a start and she is trying to make herself think that she did the right thing while actively betraying their dream and treating him like shit when he didnt learn his mastery. So instead of the "I must gain his forgiveness this was not my intention" story it looks more like a "Damn you are strong now gotta get you back to the party I guess". She learnt nothing from her mistakes and tries to slip away from any inconvenience with "I had no choice"
It is the new bait and switch meta. Start with an outrageous premise and ignore it immediately after chapter 2. Out of those 3, Aiming for my older brother is the most blatant example. It is literally not even a plot point and MC doesn't really have any long lasting hang ups about it. It is just your standard wholesome slop no stakes romcom #544122365 of the year unless FMC turns out to be actually after the brother. Which is impossible because it would make it non-generic.
Only the priestess had tried to kick him down. And she was not being quiet about it. The knight definitely had the motive, but he never actively did anything to the mc Despite his inner turmoil. He kept it professional and whatever Sasha decided, he followed. Mage simply agreed with the reasons because that man was pure logic and archer never agreed with kicking Hyce out.
She understands why he's mad. He straight up tells her why in the WN. The scene was sadly not done justice in the manga.Well ngl I'm sort of thankful this got introduced way earlier then it was supposed too
MC sort of forgave her later on in the LN and apparently from my understanding of spoilers is that she STILL doesn't understand why everything happened
I love how you people ignore how she immediately left on another quest when he collapsed and they didn't even knew if he'd pull through. She also never thought she had done anything wrong, nor apologized. Oh and bonus points, you Sasha defenders ignore that she happily allowed two of their group to sabotage Hyce, keep him from being trained, and actively trip him up every chance they had and it was them who got her to kick them out.
My man, they treated him as a gopher and tied him down with tons of menial tasks. Treating him as a servant rather than a team member. They actively TURNED him into a liability, and the Knight/Priestess very much did so intentionally. The Priestess was just more outspoken and blatant about it. The rest of the group went along with it or didn't care, which is just as bad. Sasha standing by and permitting it in itself makes her irredeemable.
Totally this
No, MC spelled it out for her. She kicked him out to achieve HER dreams thus bringing THEIR dream to a close. There is nothing wrong with using and betraying those around you to achieve victory, but don't expect people to like you very much if you take that path.
