I got to chapter 53 of this, and while it's not bad, it's like.... I would describe it as, overall mid...? Calm confusion / spoilers under cut
I have to start by acknowledging the art. It's pretty, I like to look at it -- the facial and body expressions are lacking though? Not in a way that it looks bad, just more like... uncanny. Somehow, the movement between one panel to another are not always fluid, and the expression work is really subdued.
The plot is understandable, even with the rough translation work, but somehow... it is not standing out. The romance between her and Tan is also somehow very mid. I am not truly feeling the chemistry, u know? It sounds strange to say, but he doesn't really initially have a reason to start being attracted to her? Like, he is certain she is hiding his identity from him for some reason, but instead of being suspicious of her, he's more concerned with, umm, the fact he thinks she's pretty & he wants her? Idk. I think it could be written better and I'd like it more
This is one of those reads I would describe as "isekai slop" to my friends. Did I give it the old college try? Yes. Will I remember it? No.
