It was mid. The best part was the art…over half of the story is told in flashback and it just feels like it drowns itself in disposition. I feel like I’m watching the characters tell me a story versus actually seeing the story for myself if that makes sense. It’s just chapters on top of chapters of uneeded exposition and lore dumping only for it to turn into an immediate 18+ steamy scene the second the exposition is over. The story assumes the reader has 0 reading comprehension because everything is laid out for you and there’s nothing left for the reader to infer about the character’s or plot, I haven’t read the novel so maybe it’s better…but the manhwa seems like it wants to be this massively complex and deep story…like it wants to be something way bigger than what it actually is and yet the author doesn’t give enough room for it to actually breathe and grow because the moment you begin to feel attached to characters or curious about what happens next…you’re thrown into 5-10+ chapters of panels of somebody sitting down telling you about what happened instead of actually watching events unfold. It was a bit let down because I was excited in the beginning to see their dynamic and relationship bloom…and then the initial 20 chapter flashback occurred which I powered through and then an addition 20-30 chapters later on of just someone telling you about the main characters rather than them showing you anything about themselves besides how Hor** they are.
