    So this is a apocalypse novel with a strong female mc. And here’s one of the comments I saw…just flabbergasted. People like this exist.

    “The plot is ok, but I can't qccept the fact she is not overly beautiful, I dont like someone better than mc especially those bitches..lingering around the ml..”

    And then people agreeing lol

    :blobastonished: Am I dumb or is this sarcasm? Hopefully it is

    Hmm... I kinda like the mc being attractive too but I don't mind if they look average. The world is big tho so I wouldn't be surprised if there really were people who think like that.

    I like it when MCs suffer losses so I'd like the fact if she's not perfect in every shape or form.

    There are a lot of weird people out there so I wouldn't be surprised at all if the comment is sincere. I've seen complaints if the protagonist suffers the slightest setback or if even if he doesn't do the most optimum thing power-wise, and I feel that these are even stranger attitudes to have.

    I mean if some people read it to satisfy fantasies of being the best/most beautiful in the world... I can see it maybe? :sweating_profusely::sweating_profusely::sweating_profusely:

    Depends on how it’s played, sometimes the only thing going on for the plot is the beautifully drawn mc, if they don’t even have that and they are racing a trash plot then wtf

    No… it had a good plot it’s just that the mc is not the “heavenly goddess with looks that draws everyone in” but just a normal girl that looks pleasantly nice/pretty I guess. And apparently people don’t like that
