I need to vent about a couple of things.
Two things have been going around in my head about how unfairly Valko has been treated by some antis who have criticized him for very dumb reasons.
The first is how fast his relationship with MC appears to be advancing. Like god forbid one finds a person with whom one immediately clicks, with whom you feel super comfortable from the start. Sometimes this magic happens! Happened to me and I have been in this relationship for 18 YEARS. Not every love story needs to be a slow burn, we can have some variety!
Two. Being a chairman at 26. Yes that sounds young, but it's very common for otome or anime to have a super young LI with a very big job. This is fantasy! Marius from ToT was made CEO like at 23(?) and his company, PAX, is super big, with branches in everything from tech, to pharma, to fashion. They basically keep the whole country running. And nobody seems to care?
To add an example from LADS, I haven't seen anyone complaining that Caleb is Colonel at effing 25. Absolutely no hate to Caleb, but the average age of an Air Force Colonel is 40-45. If the plot allows for that, why can't it be the same for Valko?
It really frustrates me that his haters have been nitpicking him mercilessly when they can easily suspend their disbelief for so many other things in the game.
Sorry for the rant, I had to take this out of my chest 😭
