maybe im overthinking it but i think the opening notes of sunday in the park with george visually resemble the general structure of the painting
happy birthday Nol
Conspiracy theory formed while writing a response to the anon previously and jokingly talking it over with my discussion partner:
WMMAP is a shounen/seinen isekai and Plutus is a man.
Iβm not talking about the manhwaβIβm talking about the webnovel. We know for sure WMMAP is a rofan. But thereβs actually quite a bit of rofan intended for men. And some of the writing choices oddly make sense.
For exampleβLee Jihye is constantly talking about how beautiful girls are. Now I know, Lee Jihye has that weird period where she keeps calling her dad hot and etc while taking weirdly common notice of his body, but she doesnβt really seem that perceptive of,,, anyone else??? Like even Lucas, the male leadβI canβt really recall any time where she is drawn to him or makes a point on how physically attractive he is except when she first meets himβwhere she then talks about how she thought he was a girl at first. In fact, she rarely perceives him at all I feel??? Or makes a move on him??? How are people calling this superior due to the romance when she rarely, if she ever, initiates it. Even with Ijekiel, who she confirms she had a crush on and had to actively squash it and put distance between them to forget, she only talks about how princely he is. Not his actual characteristic or physical features, and the princely stuff comes from her parroting his vibes from the novel more than her heart. Even when she finally gets to do girl talk (and they talk,,, about boys), sheβs out of it and uncomfortable when the girls start fawning over men. Meanwhile, every chance she gets with the most insignificant women who she doesnβt even know or bother to find out their names, sheβs constantly making note of how gorgeous and beautiful and flower-like they are. Iβm pretty sure sheβs internally complimented and been aweβd over Jen more than anytime sheβs made a footnote about Lucas and Ijekielβs appearances. (Like how the whole thing with Harry Potter and shipping him with Draco was because the author kept describing how handsome and gorgeous Draco was while,,, in Harry Potterβs POV? Apparently? Because the author is a straight woman attracted to men, but because it was in the POV of a man it comes off a certain way instead. Basically Iβm trying to say that Plutus is a man who canβt help but rattle on how attractive women are but fails to remember theyβre supposed to be writing in the perspective of an apparently straight woman.)
This could also point to lesbian Athy. But this is a rofan remember? Lesbians donβt exist. Especially as protagonists. (Unfortunately.) (but also the toxic wmmap readers would never allow it.)
Speaking of Jen, weβre circling back to how Athy makes no effort to pursue the men around her and itβs constantly the men pursuing her while she simply stands and reactsβbut you know who she actively moves around and goes out of her way for occasionally? The only other age-appropriate girl in the story that the author has named. She goes out of her way to spy on Jen and Ijekiel when they come to meet Cabel because she hasnβt seen Jen in a while. She ditches her amnesiac dad to meet up with Jennette before the time skip, yet I donβt ever recall Athy ever initiating a date with Lucas or Ijekielβitβs always been them initiating it with her. Athyβs weird relationships also make sense if you consider the author has no idea how girls relationships actually work and theyβre just winging the tropes they think they knowβwhy the father-daughter dates are more date-like than any of the few excursion or encounters she has with Lucas and Ijekiel, why when they do happen theyβre lokey awkward and often one sided (because of the expectation of it has to be the men initiating dates with women), how her healthiest and most natural male relationship is with Felix because thatβs how little the author is trying to actively write him (which is why all the attempts to try and write relationships with Lee Jihye feel awkward and kinda forced).
And also like. My discussion partner brought this concept upβthat Athy is written like the female love interest to the male MC of a shounen/seinen. And I think I sobbed when I started to see it.
Think about itβAthy is supposedly a magic genius, but her achievements and skills are almost always outdone by the man, and not just any man, but her male leadβLucas. Sheβs strong, but the male lead still has to be stronger because he has to be able to help and protect herβhell, thatβs what people who love the novel keep on saying, that Lucas and the romance is better there because he does everything for her. When sheβs in actual peril that actually affects the story or the central conflict, she calls Lucas/the responsibility falls onto Lucas to fix it and help her. Lee Jihye is strong but practically only in name when pit against the male MC.
And usually when this happens in shoujo or rofans, the female MC balances it by at least being equal to or one-upping the supposedly lesser male lead in some departmentβappealing to others emotionally with emotional intelligence, being more savvy intelligence wise or technologically, some sort of secret skill or smarts that puts her on some sort of equal ground.
Except.
Lee Jihye doesnβt really have any of that. Because she doesnβt really pursue or desire anything. Her flaw that causes problems in the story (not addressed enough) is her lack of emotional intelligence and clear interest, sheβs not especially smart or responsible really since the narrative moreso explains that the current era of wizards are just really dumb and clumsy because theyβre relying on the teachings and magic of a fraud. Her social life is about the same as Lucas being that sheβs around groups of people decently often but she doesnβt actually care about them.
The only silver lining she has above Lucas and Claude is that she supposedly has morals and doesnβt want to kill peopleβand even that falls apart lokey by the end because she gets tired of stopping her dad from killing her best friend. Sheβs allowed to be skilled, but only if it doesnβt actively affect the story or plot, and when sheβs supposed to have a moment it goes to the male MC to boost the male MCβs status and prestige instead.
And how sheβs lokey there more to. Cause the men to develop (for better or worse), while her development is miniscule. And how little of the actual worldly/story plot revolves around or is related to herβlike the whole thing with Jen, she was having feels over Athy but her main trigger in the end was Ijekiel (a man) and at the delegation send off party her final straw is Claude (a man), and the conditions that led to these triggers was Carax/Caracks (a man) magic drugging and messing her up, who is only doing this because of Lucas (a man). And the whole runaway arc was because Claude (a man) was actively doing things (attempted murder, cough) which pushed Athy away, and her coming back and the reconciliation (sorta) happened because of Claude and Felix (men) using Lily (a woman) as bait. And the whole thing with Ijekiel is him constantly initiating things with Athy and Athy just kinda letting it happen and then being surprised when something happens.
If you really think about it, everything revolves around a man in the story, with the girls just being victims to or reacting to it. And that lokey makes sense if weβre suddenly hit with the theory that wmmap was written for men and possibly by a man. Iβve even heard people say that Lucas is more of novel wmmapβs main character than Athy, which is ridiculous but also,,, when you think about it, too many relevant things point to him and boost him up while the only time Athy shines is when itβs unimportant sobs.
And itβs not like shounen and seinenβs canβt have female leads or follow a girlβs journey and development. HellβApothecary Diaries, Frieren, and Witch Hat Atelier are popular now with their lovable female MCs, and all three are seinen, yet they have as many if not more female fans than male fans I feel. So wmmapβs novel being a seinen wouldnβt be impossible. Like push Spoonβs very shoujo inspired art out of your mind for just a moment, and think about the events of the novel altogether in general. I kinda almost relate it to Horimiya and Skip and Loaferβromantic comedy-esque slice of life stories that deal with tropes/social expectation and relationships, that people associate as shoujo just because theyβre romantic comedies when theyβre actually a shounen and seinen. And it being a rofan doesnβt mean itβs a shoujo eitherβI actually used to read quite a bit of rofan manga many years ago that were shounen/intended for men. The way that wmmap is written, the pacing, the subject matters and when you think of the possibility of unconscious perception and bias within the author who could be a man themself (as their identity is completely anonymous as well as their gender afaik),,,
Now this isnβt serious lmao, this is a joke conspiracy I tried reading too much into as a joke and for fun, but man. If it were true, some things and writing choices would lokey make sense.
