Reading another silly isekai "the second male lead is actually a girl" and wow trans bi vibes. But also parts of it suck so bad in the usual way these crossdressing trope ones always do ๐ฉ
Anyway wow epic trio friendship betw pink girl and princey ๐ฅบ when u learn to respect people's boundaries and learn that not every insult is personally aimed and to forgive people and see them for who they are instead of who you've made them out to be in your mind ๐ญ childhood friends trope!!
The entire plot w enok sucks so bad I know we need like. An excuse to have a powerful mage on the good guy team to combat uhh. The religious orthodoxy or whatever but it sucks so bad the "pretty much baseless obsession" trope always seems to exist when authors can't figure out any actually meaningful way of resolving the central conflict its a cop out.
But also in the whole "oops I accidentally named this nameless guy and now he's obsessed w me tee hee" would it not be more powerful for the nonbinny coded (to me) main character to have in their single childhood meeting to have been like and here's a name u can call me without drawing attention, do you have a name? No? Well a name is something that can be gifted Yes but you can also choose your own name, which can be a freeing act of divorcing yourself from the control and expectations of others and an avowal to freedom. So instead of enok being like wow ๐ that person named me so they're gonna be my owner whether they wanna be or not. The weird obsession could be more like. Thanks for giving me the push I needed to become my own person let me do you a solid for that / I want to watch how this person lives their life so I can learn to live my own. Or something!!!! Something that also doesn't involve him immediately seeing this 11 yr old undergoing magic puberty blockers and goes wow a Female. ๐คข narsty
But I mean for real it just makes more SENSE to for the Mc to have accidentally advocated for him to expatriate himself than uh. Whatever canon was. You know the main character who reincarnated so knows the experience of living in another body and life and identity, and that they're in a book but tries to choose to live for themself outside of it and see the people around them independently of their written potentialities and tropes.
Also they totally should've gone "OK cringe dad who only contacted me bc his limp dick didn't produce an heir and only did so after my mom died, I will play the role of heir bc there are a lot of benefits to it like education and free magic HRT but u need me more than I need you" and extorted him. I think them having a weird I respect ur sleaziness and don't trust u for shit relationship it would've been so funny. Bullied by a teenager but he's also so proud of them for it.
