Yo ! Would It Be Too Much To Ask For You To Show Some Progress Sketches ? Your Recent Post Is Absolutely

There was no good option here.

It’s simple. Y’all saying she’s selfish and a coward but

PINK DIAMOND HAD NO CHOICE. 

Let us review her options, and their outcomes :

Option A : Pink Diamond does nothing to stop the colonisation.

Outcome : The colony is completed. Everything on Earth dies.

Option B : Pink Diamond asks the Diamonds to stop the colonisation, peacefully.

Outcome : Diamonds : Don’t care, didn’t read lol.

Option C : Pink Diamond tells her subjects to stop (probably happened, so it’s almost the same as Option B)

Outcome : Diamonds : What are you doing ? Ok, you’re just lazy and childish. Give me back that colony. 

Pink loses her colony and a lot of her power as a Diamond.

Option D : Pink Diamond leads an official war on her older sisters.

Outcome : Diamonds : What are you doing ? Are you serious right now ? Ok, it’s not funny anymore. You, the youngest, weakest Diamond, our little sister, is rebelling against the Diamond Authority after all we gave to you ? 

The war is lost by Pink (smaller army, one incomplete colony against several), all of her army is wiped, corrupted or shattered. Actually, not only her army but also her subjects : Lapis Lazulis, Pearls, Peridots, all of her subjects are wiped and she loses everything. Earth becomes a colony.

Option E : Pink Diamond leads a secret rebellion to have another excuse to stop the colony. Her subjects has the choice to rejoin the rebellion and be free or to go back to Homeworld.

Outcome : Diamonds : The rebellion will be destroyed. Keep going.

Option F : Pink Diamond fakes her death because Blue tells her the colonisation won’t stop as long as she’s here to lead.

Outcome : Earth is left alone, her subjects are either free or alive in Homeworld. That’s what she thought would happen. But we all know what actually happened : Earth was left alone, but the rebellion got corrupted. A large part of her subjects were saved thanks to this sacrifice, because they were siding with the Diamonds, thinking they were siding with Pink. Her soldiers, her court, all of her subjects actually had the choice to be part of the rebellion or to go back to Homeworld. She saved them, when an official war would have get them all killed or corrupted.

Again, tell me what she could have done more ? 

Let Earth die ? Lead everyone into a lost war ? There was not other possibilities. The one she chose was not perfect, but between all of them, it was the only one that was less terrible. 

Yes, Pink was childish. But it’s also what gave her the possibility to see what Earth was, beyond a planet to make a colony. She fell for Earth and she took the best choice for Earth and her subjects : save or free them. 

I hate doing this but there's drama in the horror webtoon community and I have to vent.

Do NOT support Hanza_art

If you don't want to be spoiled/involve yourself in a toxic situation do not read further.

My Deepest Secret was infamous for its overly miserable plot twist ending. The main character turned out to be "crazy" and "delusional". Somehow that protagonist was capable of living a normal life and being a serial killer at the same time. This character never got real professional help, and they were left to suffer in their delusions.

The horror community is often wary of authors that portray mentally ill people as unsalvagable or monstrous. Personally, I was horrified.

The backlash was horrible because the plot twist made no sense in general. In addition the story was marketed as a romance and by the end nobody had paired off. I felt my time was wasted, and I was disgusted by the way the "true villain" was discarded for the crime of being mentally ill.

When Hanza returned with a more level-headed protagonist and a more violent psychopathic villain....some readers gave the author another chance.

I don't blame them. Paranoid characters like Rozy are very interesting! Especially as main characters!

Hawa, the secondary female lead, grows out of her "naive victim" stereotype as well. It's very satisfying to watch. It was tied together nicely by the handsome villain, Adam.

Adam is extremely evil and irredeemable. When the story begins he is a serial killer who targets "innocent, sweet" girls like Hawa.

Rozy is overprotective and she doesn't trust men. In fact she's a known man hater. The characters are all adults, so their character traits and desires aren't just quirks. They are all deeply flawed people.

It was a very promising start.

Plus, it wasn't marketed as a romance so I was sure it would be written better! The weakest part of My Deepest Secret was the romance (by the end I mean) so yay!

Or not...

I do not keep up with TGU on a regular basis. The plot slowed down considerably and I noticed a worrying trend. Frankly, I'm not shocked by this immature behavior in the slightest.

Every single male character in TGU is a sexist abuser who harbors violent thoughts about women.

Hanza is very good at writing scary, irredeemable, sexist pigs that belong in jail...but it was a worrying trend all the same.

Adam was a smart, handsome serial killer who liked to hide in plain sight. By about chapter fifty he was alot dumber, and I cannot stress this enough.

Every male character that associates with Rozy or Hana turns out to be a stalker or harasser. The kind that would get charged in real life.

That kind of hatred towards "all men" is worrying in a thriller comic, and it was very annoying.

I wanted Rozy to outsmart Adam.

I don't want to watch her and Hana be abused by multiple men (mostly former friends!).

I came for the girl boss mystery, and I got alot of sexism instead. What a slap in the face.

Past a certain point I was only checking in to see how bad the story had gotten....and...yup....the male police officer helping Rozy is also a weird guy.

............first of all that's boring.

Second of all it's insulting.

Hanza hates toxic romance, and it shows, and that's perfectly ok. It's not for everyone, but Hanza has built their entire career on top of sexy murder men...so their attitude is extremely hypocritical and annoying as heck to watch.

"I hate toxic romance but I'm also going to sell suit merch of Elios and Adam."

Like, what did you expect?

Hanza is an adult creator, and they do know who they're catering to.

At this point they are absolutely insulting the fans that pay their bills, and that's unacceptable.

Authors are public figures now. They have been since the Facebook Era. Random internet trolls should not influence how you speak to your fan base. I understand that working for Webtoon is brutally hard, but Hanza is a popular artist despite their fumbled first story.

It's like watching somebody blow their nose on a golden ticket.

TGU was their second chance. A very generous second chance, that got great reviews in the beginning.

I'm astonished that Hanza somehow managed to concoct another dud plot twist. Their rude attitude has to be the nail in their coffin. They should not get a third generously funded chance.

Don't interact with their posts.

Don't review bomb the webtoon.

Don't give them any more attention.

They've made more than enough money off of fans they clearly don't respect.

Every creator worth their salt knows trolls and super perverts are only 0.05% of any given Fandom.

If Hanza wants to spit on the 99.95% fine.

Just don't give them any more money or support. That's the only punishment fans have the right to inflict.

Why am I so upset?

Well, as you can see Hanza posted spoilers. They spoiler bombed Twitter because they don't want to finish TGU.

That's right. On top of insulting everybody who paid for this comic they also don't want to finish. Despite the fact that the story reached its climax recently. The girlboss alliance is finally forming against Adam but...too bad I don't wanna write it (suckers).

The sibling plot twist is just abysmal as well.

Shame on you Hanza.

You damn well know that this sibling plot twist is completely out of left field and unexpected. (and boring. I am convinced you are trolling your fans.)

The shipper trolls and the edgy Rozy/Adam fans had no idea it was coming before you randomly spoiled it.

For the record I don't ship anything in this lackluster comic, because I know better. Again, My Deepest Secret was marketed as a Romantic Thriller and then there was zero payoff. Sure, this one isn't a romance, but I don't think anyone signed up for every guy on the block being evil. Just the guy upstairs. Since the story isn't even about love I never imagined so much drama would come out. It feels very pointless and petty. Every time I hear about this artist it's a drama issue and I can't help but think they're part of the problem. Their recent behavior on social media hasn't left me with any other options.

Hanza, you are being manipulative and childish on purpose because you don't want to finish what you started.

You pandered to horror and toxic romance fans on purpose just to get money.

You spoiled a story millions of people have been reading regularly just to satisfy your childish need to bully your own fans.

You took their money.

You signed your contract.

Nobody made you do it.

If you really are super conservative and you think romance must be pure LEAVE US ALONE, and go write pure romance.

Nobody is stopping you, but you wanted to milk more money out of people you don't respect.

It's sickening, and I'm happy that TGU will never get a physical release.

You don't deserve a dime of that money.

Shame. On. You.

Liar event CGs. Want more Kazumi 😭

Back to Work.

I ship patrick x emilyko so muchy muchy

Isn’t hate merely the result of wounded love?

Amy Tan, The Joy Luck Club (via books-n-quotes)

Some say hate is a strong word, but that’s normal.

Yes, I want to be your friend. I want to be the friend you fall hopelessly in love with. The one you take into your arms and into your bed and into the private world you keep trapped in your head. I want to be that kind of friend.
