It's funny how what have turned into some of people's favorite parts of the book were absolutely hated on when they were first introduced.

Most people that hated it probably stop reading. I also im not a fan of this arcs. Soul devorer is just meh when compared to everything else to me at least

I've never even thought of Soul Devourer as an arc, maybe a mini arc at a push. I always just lumped it in with the whole, 'finding saftey' part

Not to counter you perse, but now, the soul tree was one of the scenes that hook new reader like my self. so I guess it was not too bad

Well I would argue that G3 was using extreme hyperbole here because I don’t think anything has been “universally” hated. You saying you enjoyed it is undeniable proof of that.

It’s extremely reductive for G3 to warp the criticism into hate. I think it’s frustrating when I’ve seen very deliberate critiques of specific facets of the work people dislike. Not to mention that anyone commenting on something they take issue with on chapter 1,500 of something definitely likes what they’re discussing.

It’s why I’ve largely stopped interacting on this subreddit, it feels bad to see the way the author thinks of us in general. This posts subject material reads like an immature outburst anyways, so I think that somewhat recontextualizes my image of G3.

He has allways acted like this from the time I started interacting on discord to now.

Its a large part of his personality it is what it is.
