Unmei wa Yaku ni Tatanai - Ch. 4

Gotta love the "the string is hamstringing the plot" or "the string is messing up the progression of the story" comments because they are implying that the story would've worked better without it. Guys, without the string, this story doesn't exist at all. String is quite literally the central piece of the narrative and everything revolves around it.

If you don't like the set-up around the string and worldbuilding related to it and how it changes the dynamic of relationships then this story simply isn't for you. If you think that the story would've worked better without the string, you simply want a completely different story and not this one

"If you don't like it, don't discuss it" comments like this one contribute absolutely nothing and just stifle interesting discussions. You're basically saying that you can't criticise a story because any changes to it would make it a different story and therefore we should just shut up I guess. There's obviously plenty of directions the story could take with the same basic premise.

We can both acknowledge the premise (and that it's quite interesting!) and we can speculate on how it could develop in next chapters, and whether the author wrote themselves into a corner or not. I'm inclined to agree with some other commenters that they kinda did, but I'm cautiously hopeful. In the worst case we will just get relatively standard yuri with a touch of supernatural that doesn't really matter that much, which I will probably still enjoy, but it doesn't mean I can't wish it to be better

I just hope Kouhai-chan doesn't get weird idea about trying to broke the fate red string by liking someone else just to prove the string doesn't work...
