hdwr spoilers!!

finally caught up with hdwr after letting it marinate for a WHILE i think the last chapter i read before taking a break was around ch 80??? but i just finished reading ch 113 (and saw some spoilers from ch 117-118) AND MAN DO I HAVE A LOT OF THOUGHTS!!

when i first started seeing miwa and sae get into their new relationships, i was so happy for them because it was nice to see them heal and grow into better people and though i suspected that tamiful might bring miwasae back together, i was so against it. to me, it felt like they were better off as friends and i was scared that mistakes MIGHT be made (as in cheating which was unlikely but you never know so i was still worried nonetheless) but now that i finished catching up with it, i am 100% in support of miwasae endgame.

miwa/tamaki and saeko/yuria were so good and you can tell that they truly did love each other but even though miwa and sae have become more emotionally mature and learned to communicate (something that they learned from their past relationship with each other), sometimes there are differences in relationships that you can't reconcile no matter how much you compromise and that's just how it is.

back when miwa and sae first got together, they had a shit ton of baggage to deal with (miwa hung up on her first love, sae being afraid to open, and just a general lack of communication). they just weren't good for each other at the time so it was unhealthy for them to stay together. breaking up was the right move because it helped them heal and focus on themselves and meet other people.

AND NOW they're back to being single. they were girlfriends and then they were exes and now they're bestfriends. their relationship as friends has really grew into a beautiful bond and i would have been satisfied with that EXCEPT there's still something there. they both learned a lot from their previous experiences and now they're in a better place mentally and emotionally. and they're both single!

ch 117-118 is so cute (only saw some panels) and i'm absolutely sure we're gonna get that emotionally mature miwasae endgame (I'M EXCITED) but i trust that tamiful isn't gonna rush their comeback since they're both fresh from their respective breakups (idk the passage of time in the manga tbh)

it's actually kinda funny how i was against at a potential comeback at first because the truth is, i'm a sucker for exes to lovers romance when it's done right and tamiful is doing a really great job at it. hwdr is just a great manga in general tbh. i've lost my train of thought while yapping so much in this post BUT ANYWAYS i'm looking forward to see miwa and saeko do it right this time around with all the wisdom they've gained throughout their past experiences <333333

You are actually the only person I have seen say anything that makes sense regarding HDWR recently, thank you for your good takes. I love this manga, but it really feels like I’m not reading the same story as most people sometimes

I for the record think that there is a lot (in fact i'd say majority) of interesting discussion about hdwr, even now, (just the other day in the main tag i saw a post that i liked talking about tamaki as a character & her and miwa's relationship and despite the subreddit having a lot of silly posts lately i think a couple months ago around ch. 113's release there were a lot of good comments about MiwaSae and both of their development throughout the story and I think even now there's good discussion about ch. 119 and miwa and tamaki burried in the silly stuff) and in some sense like i feel like the current wave with ch. 119 was always going to happen, it's a very emotionally charged topic that we're seeing how much it hurt a character people tend to like so like i understand being upset by it and having strong opinions about it.

That all being said, the kind of discussion that tends to surround the story of "sae was unfair/toxic to miwa" "tamaki has always been manipulative" "yuria is unfair to sae" are baffling to me because I feel like to get anything out of this story- to not instantly just be frustrated with it- you have to interact with it a little bit on its terms and I think part of that is acknowledging that these characters are more complex than the simple one word "abusive/toxic/manipulative/innocent" labelling and have complex emotions and imperfect reasoning that cause them to make mistakes, be cruel to each other, and do the wrong things. This doesn't excuse the characters' actions but that's not what the story is interested in doing anyway.

And like, I don't think the story is for everyone, I don't think everyone has to want to interact with the story on those terms; which is why while i personally don't agree with the kind of people who say "i had to stop reading when miwa and sae broke up bc it was too sad/too frustrating" and the like, I can at least understand it as just the story has goals that reader doesn't want to engage with, which is completely understandable. Where it confuses me is getting so far through the story and still not choosing to interact with the story on its terms. What are you getting out of this story then??? Does viewing sae as toxic enhance the story for you? Is it a useful way in looking at the narrative?

Especially since I feel like tamifull has attempted to make these characters realistic almost to invite us the reader to examine both ourselves and our relationships as we read. Is How Do We Relationship a useful tool to to analyze yourself or your own relationships with if you flatten the characters into good and bad? Is that a lens you'd want to view your own relationships with? I don't think so. I feel like the only things it could lead to is "i wouldn't make that mistake because I'm not toxic." "i wouldn't find myself in this situation because me and my partner aren't like them." So like. What benefit does viewing these characters in this way give you? You clearly seem to agree with/like the goals of the story if you're still here 100+ chapters later so like. What are you getting out of this?

I dunno. Like i said, I do think there's still a lot of good discussion about hdwr. That's why I still lurk the subreddit and read posts in the main tag. It's just this specific genre of discussion i can't understand especially when it happens with like more recent chapters
