This is the first time I'm reading a manhwa like this and I've been having an incredible time.
The whole aspect of women going extinct in BL is not a new trope but this artist/author managed to make it more interesting(?). Them not existing in person but more like mythical creatures, the grotesque depiction of "women-like demons", artificial wombs; the acknowledgement of women clearly being warriors in their time. It's like, they're appreciating every aspect of being a woman. Treating women like, gods in a way? At least that's how I felt, with women/females being responsible for creation of all beings science stuff.
Of course the Kimoto x Garon thing about how a "male" coaxes a "female" for the purpose of reproduction was strange. But the whole premise of this series is peculiar so it didn't hit in a negative way more than what society already does.
I did find it questionable, and so is the fact that they've extracted DNA from the most would-be powerful women in order to birth various offsprings while using the remaining humans' sperm. Felt like a rinse and repeat don't you think? Like, taking reference from the real world, women make up majority of the population(incredible imo yk, considering the femicide, infanticide, and other factors.)
I reckon society would take a BIG hit from their loss. But also the genetic variation is clearly drastically dwindling as we can see from Charin and Tehir, completely different individuals with different lives but born of the same cluster of artificial wombs. I wonder what factor would've decided that Charin have a fully(?) functioning uterus? And what's to say Tehir hasn't got one. I did notice that the red coloured growths on their body were in different patterns but couldn't guess whether it was supposed to be sexual dimorphism or just depend from person to person.
Another thing I really like, is that the author doesn't shy away from making all the characters interact with each other in a yk, 'Go ahead more shipping fodder for you' and all way. Who would've thought Jin and Garon wouldn't turn out to be the typical raped>forgive>love yaoi couple and that Jin has a whole another person in his heart! And the Kimoto x Garon sex was also insane. And the Hyehan and Garon bit? Funny and very welcomed.
For me all the characters were pretty chill, definitely visually my top favourite characters are Jin and Tehir but as the story progressed I found myself loving Kimoto more! It's my first time liking a character with visuals and personality like his so that makes this series even more entertaining. I don't think I dislike any character in particular, Garon was annoying at first but getting bred and falling in love tamed him, then Hyehan came and he was infuriating during his first appearance but watching him turn pathetic for Charin was very pleasing!
The series is super fun, i would've loved if they had dug more into the biogical aspect of life without women. (We all can imagine and social and economic disasters that would occur lol) At the end of the day, these are fictional 2d drawings and we're all here to release stress from our daily lives.
