final thoughts about unlucky mansion !!! <3

spoilers under the cut! read at your own risk :)

DSJKGHDFSKJG THAT WAS LITERALLY SO GOOD I LOVE UNLUCKY MANSION SO FUCKING MUCH!!! i loved the open-ended ending that was  basically “life will go on, and we’ll be happy as long as we’re together” and i just 💘💖💗💓💝💞 im so happy that eun joo and woo jin esp can finally move onto the next chapter in their lives, together, with each other at their sides :)

let me touch on a few topics:

1. chae min going to australia and finding her own happiness after having sung woo help her realize how to do that :) man i just love her character and she literally deserves this. also lmao the fact that she got a crush on sung woo and said alright i am going 2 leave to an entirely different country now peace out

now that i’m rereading unlucky mansion (ik i just finished it but it cant be helped) i realize just how cynical and self-destructive chae min used to be. im really happy for her and her decision to finally let herself be happy :)

“it looks like happiness is a really heavy thing to you, noona. but happiness is just when you eat good food, when you see a movie you like for the third time...or maybe when you’re walking down the street and get excited by a song that you can hear from a nearby store. it’s not something that heavy. happiness is becoming happy when you want to. if you’re ready to receive it, you can become happy at any time.” -sung woo, ch. 68

2. NO THOUGHTS ONLY EUN JOO AND WOO JIN...LOVE THEM BOTH THEY’RE SO LUCKY TO HAVE EACH OTHER I AHDSJFHDGH <333

“it’s not winning against despair and fear, but rather sitting down together and sharing like you’re at a meal. once you share, hope will emerge and the problem will be solved...well, what i’m trying to say is don’t keep everything in and suffer by yourself.” -eun joo, ch. 20

“you portrayed forgetting your family and living as a bad thing in there, but to be honest, we’re not a hero like odysseus—we’re just normal people. as normal people get close and obsessed with each other, they’ll suffer. even if you became a bit of a bad person...it’s more important for you to forget the sad memories and become happy from further away. you have to be happy.” -eun joo, ch. 70

“even though we love words that dash for the conclusion like electrons, because we can’t properly see the ending for our story...because we continued to wander and seek out our own paths to get here—we could understand each other’s scars, and have no choice but to love each other.” -woo jin, ch. 70 

3. EUN JOO BEING SUCCESSFUL! i love that for her! especially bc i also wanna be a (potential!) fashion designer one day it was just so fucking cool to see her at work and in her element. man im just so happy for her and she’s come a long way, especially from the beginning of the story. also her personality and style is just kickass

4. WOO JIN RECONCILING WITH HIS BROTHER AND MOVING ON!! loved this. everything was executed perfectly. it was super emotional at points, and i really felt the despair :( but in the end, his brother’s surgery went well, and woo jin learned how to live his own life without feeling any unnecessary guilt over things he had no control over and i just :) also that acceptance speech was just so badass!!! what a king !! also love his hello kitty collection it’s very admirable

5. kwon hi and kwon joon <3 my favorite orange twins hehe. i feel sad that kwon joon broke up with his girlfriend and he failed his singing audition, but ig it’s just life i suppose T_T wishing him more success in the future! and i also just love their sibling dynamic in general :)

6. i really love the art. it’s just so fitting for the story, and the way panels are drawn, and the color palettes used, it’s just *chefs kiss* so beautiful!! so much art appreciation <3

7. the writing, plot, and story were phenomenal. i love how it turned a basic, typical trope (living together with roommates) and turned it into something compelling, complex, and interesting to read about. all of the character dynamics and interactions were just so fun to read about, and literally everyone had chemistry w each other in unlucky mansion (by which i mostly mean platonic chemistry, except for woo jin and eun joo they had hella romantic chemistry lmfao). the author also touched on some deep topics that really resonated with me, and the conflicts that the characters faced were super relatable and things i could empathize with. plus, the humor and expressions the characters made were top notch! the emotional scenes were so heart wrenching too haha ;; overall, there was a great mix of emotional and comical scenes and the writing of the relationship & character developments were super organic and...human. 

8. i wish we saw a eun joo and woo jin wedding but it’s okay the last panel of them together is good enough T_T

i can rest easy now...im so glad that i finally got to read season 3 of unlucky mansion!! (even though i had to read raws and the english translation on mystic’s tumblr at the same time - which, by the way, was an Experience and honestly kinda fun. it spiced things up)

i know im going to be rereading this manhwa for years to come, and im honestly surprised that i havent read this sooner - but im glad i read it now and the memories that came with reading it will be happy and heartfelt. 

(i literally feel so much serotonin rn im smiling so much)

alright, peace out! that’s all for today, folks 😊

Sayaka, Kaede and Sonia for the character meme? :D

Alright!

Maizono Sayaka:

How I feel about this character: I don’t really like her tbh. I don’t violently hate like most people I just ultimately don’t think she’s compelling to me. I do like the twist on the wife bait concept where “no she’s actually like a person with flaws capable of doing terrible things” but like. See I never took the wife bait, so I wasn’t emotionally hurt by that twist because I always hate obvious wife bait when I see it. And I would have liked her so much more if Kodaka didn’t try to preserve her wife bait status with Kiri’s “oh she tried to save you” spiel. I really just don’t like when a character feels like bait first, person second, and ultimately I ended up feeling that way about Maizono. That being said she’s pretty interesting and has some depth; I just don’t care.All the people I ship romantically with this character: no....one...? I don’t care about her enough to ship her, but uh Kirizono has a solid fucking aesthetic+theoretical dynamic so y’know what I’ll take that.My non-romantic OTP for this character: also...also none? idk man she dies too soon for me to have one of those.My unpopular opinion about this character: doesn’t deserve the amount of vitriolic hate she gets even if I personally think she’s kinda boring.One thing I wish would happen/had happened with this character in canon: I mentioned it before but the fucking Kirigiri thing. No Kodaka. Let her look dubious at the end. Fuck you.

Akamatsu Kaede:

How I feel about this character: I like her enough. She was fucking wasted thoroughly by v3, even if v3 wasn’t actually designed for her to be the long-term protagonist. It’s offensive to take a character with potential like that and kill her off immediately. And then it’s more offensive to ruin the ONE COOL THING YOU DID (murder protag) and RETCON IT SO SHE WAS A PERFECT ANGEL THE WHOLE TIME. Aarrrghhhh. I can’t stand that Kodaka waifu’d her. She was pretty interesting and she gets turned into a wife. I could honestly fucking live with what happened if she didn’t get the wife treatment. All the people I ship romantically with this character: Hi. Are you a girl. Are you not Shirogane. then have I got the ship for you--but esp Chabamatsu Harumatsu and Kaerumi. My non-romantic OTP for this character: I really want her to be friends with Hoshi. And Ouma. And Saihara is fine if it’s platonic. And Amami. And basically everyoneMy unpopular opinion about this character: I feel like this like. shouldn’t be controversial. but if you look at the base writing for her character and for v3 it’s glaringly obvious she was never written to be an actual protagonist in her own right and we were just lied to in promotional stuffOne thing I wish would happen/had happened with this character in canon: I wish they just didn’t bother with the protag fakeout to begin with. Like I wish in advertising they didn’t say she was protagonist. Ideally they didn’t say who the protagonist was. It would be fine if they pulled the fakout without misleading us in promotional shit because that wouldn’t give us these expectations. ALSO I WISH THEY NEVER FUCKING WIFED HER. JUST LET HER BE A MURDERER AND BE FUCKING DONE. AND GIVE HER BETTER FREE TIME EVENTS WHAT THE FUCK

Sonia Nevermind:

How I feel about this character: Sonia is. good. a good girl. I do love Sonia a lot even if. she’s basically canonically a weeb. But the reason I like her is actually just because she acts much stronger than she is because she feels she must. She’s a leader, and that means being a pillar of strength. And also she’s just fun okay I mean look at her. She loves Serial killers but she’s like a disney princess jnkdfkbghAll the people I ship romantically with this character: Tanaka. Kinda Hinata. Kinda Maizono too actually now that I think about it. My non-romantic OTP for this character: KUZURYUU. KUZU. LISTEN. AS LEADERS THEY WOULD GET ALONG SO WELL. THEY’D BE SO GOOD FOR EACH OTHER. AAAAAAAAAAMy unpopular opinion about this character: I think people only like her because they like sondam and thus they like Tanaka but I personally think Sonia herself is actually amazing and deserves more focusOne thing I wish would happen/had happened with this character in canon: I wish like. We got to see her get closer to Tanaka throughout the game instead of it suddenly getting spotlighted by ch4? Like I think it’s a fun dynamic, and I think I’d buy her emotional investment more if like it didn’t start basically three days prior. I mean they showed Nidai and Owari get close so like. Kodaka why
