I tried, I really did... but there are 3 things that's making me drop it.
1. The artstyle. I don't knaur but there's just some sort of AWKWARD stiffness with the characters. Be it poses, random shots, and even scenes that doesn't make any sense. Also, their faces are pretty much like a gacha pre-made expression sticker. The smex scenes too. It's like pausing a video randomly and getting these awkward shots, not very enticing so to say. I know everyone has different takes and artstyle shouldn't be a huge factor, but making them more..fluid and expressive helps tell the story better.
2. The ML's "revenge". I didn't really finish it but the way he's pinning everything to the MC like it's his fault doesn't sit right with me. The way he obviously berates him, leads him on with sweet actions, then stabs him with his occasional 'relapses'. And then he goes about it like he's the victim, making MC think it was his fault. Safe to say, he's a red flag and mc is colorblind. Also, the way he just sets up MC during their first meeting pisses me off. bruh.
3. The pacing. I don't know bout y'all but the pacing coupled with the artstyle isn't helping the story at all. I'll just leave it at that since technically, I dropped it midway because I couldn't stand how stiff they were plus how the MC acts like some kind of YN variant who cries at every turn, sulks for like a minute before he wags his tail for ML again. ugh...
yeah, well... it's up to you if you'll read it. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
