i like the premise but the execution kind of kills me lol. they could have made it less kiddo; it's supposed to be mature based off that fkn synopsis AND YET absolutely none of that + his side just being kind of pathetic [idk but when i saw the setting of him having system powers and being in op shounen like setting before i kind of expected it to not get watered down into what it is, lol. even the webtoon jokes about it, rip. just cuz it's josei doesn't mean it needs to be all rainbows and butterflies. and weak. overly kawaii.] anyways. i still like the general story; it's fresh. i like the blending. i like how they set it up. i just hope it gets better? it's nice to see the characters not just going completely with the flow & having deeper considerations. the relationship progression is better than i expected from the synopsis. or, i guess i should say; it's slower. more considered.
aside from that; my only other hang up is that i'm still eternally thrown by how they keep portraying the emperors age differently. i swear he looked way older in c1 [i even checked] and then they gave him the eye wrinkles at his first recent appearance at the dining table and 2 seconds later he's youthful wheeze /wrinkles just flew away/
all that said; still like an 8/10 for me purely on art and freshness of plot/genre blending.
