Disclaimer I haven’t read the MTL per say rather I saw a spoiler summery the high level plot for P5V10-P5V12 (very broad)

spoiler’s bellow

So I normally read the prepubs and the most spoilers I would normally allow my self is the photos on the bookworm wiki (they didn’t have captions and found it interesting to guess what may happen).

However now at P5V9 some parts of the ending were sorta clearly foreshadowed.

  • Ferdinand, Roz retainers pushing for her to be aub and dump Siggy (the booklets scrub)

I first caved in and saw P5V12 cover of Aub Roz (which basically means Gervasio probably had to loose). I then went to the bookworm wikia and previewed the caption less images for P5V10-P5V12. Then finally after seeing the images (and getting confused why Mestianora and Roz had an interaction) caved further into spoiling the rest of the plot to myself.

I know this is sorta a weird ramble but when you guys read the MTL did you slowly cave in before hand (checking the wiki for future parts), viewing smaller spoilers/ translating only part of the web novel via MTL? Or did you cave in all at once and bindge the remainder of the plot, only to be least with a partial understanding due to MTL inconsistencies (and how deep in details the story is)?
