thanks for the hard work.Thanks for reading, Ch. 30 is on its way.
One of the issues with Japanese fantasy (and I'm sure a lot of fantasy in general, I just see this a lot in Japanese stuff) sometimes is that they write these fantasy characters with generally modern sensibilities. Nothing inherently wrong with that. The issue comes from when these generally modern sensibilities run into fantasy setting elements that mesh really poorly with how the characters (and the way the writer wants the audience to) react to them. The actions of Latos' father are a good example of this, he's meant to ultimately be sympathetic, misunderstood and mistaken but his actions are so comically archaic compared to how he acts and talks about them (how any character talks about them really) that the whole situation kind of feels very ridiculous and contrived.Oh man, this feels like someone is about to wrap up an arc!
The whole "sorry cant help but sign away my child's rights" plots just end up creepy and contrived.
IMO, it's more the readers of modern fiction, those that can't separate fiction and reality, that created inconsistent characters.[...]
Thanks to you.Thanks for reading, Ch. 30 is on its way.
For once that isn't really the case as others have pointed out here father had actually been extremely reasonable. Him not canceling the marriage had nothing to do with him being an asshole and everything to do with the noble system itself. Him canceling it would take an insane life changing amount of money. Once again the story surprises me by doing the usual noble daughter marriage trope but actually making it sensible from both the parent and child side.Oh man, this feels like someone is about to wrap up an arc!
The whole "sorry cant help but sign away my child's rights" plots just end up creepy and contrived.
