After reading the reviews and then finished 19 chapters so far, I still find the uke unlikeable. He felt like a character in a 2010s shounen manga, where the clumsy falling, the getting bullied for being a loser, the ecchi scenes like nips showing, showing bandages on nips, touchy feely sorta thing. Maybe that's the purpose?
I'll continue this because the design for the seme is fking hot. Holy crap. I love how he looks. I'm a sucker when it comes to these kinda designs for the top. Ughhh
Maybe I'm old but for Isabel to lose her memories and all. And as she gets older, she met those who knew her younger self. It's kinda too easy?
I also got really annoyed like almost every early to mid chapters she keeps saying, "We're just fake couples..."
"We're not a real couple.. we're gonna divorce after a year" like F me man. It is so infuriating. Like yeah we get it but must you keep saying that to remind the readers? Author why? Can you tell me why you keep making Isabel repeat it?
The villains are very 1 dimensional and stupid. Very stupid but i guess they're just unfit to be a good villain. Just outright spewing villains vibes from recordings or whatever. Saying your plans outloud, EVEN saying names of those who worked together with you?
"Thanks to Blank, i get this and that"
"The family even plan to put a curse on her!"
"Yay to Red castle!"
The fact that the mastermind of all this, the "true" villain is just a man shrouded in the dark. Judging the blue eyes and brown hair, why can't they stop hinting who's the bad guy or something?
I just think Isabel gets everything she wants. It IS nice to read without thinking but as time goes by, it's ridiculously easy. Everything is so easy. No puzzles to be solved without someone be like "oh i know a person that can do that!" "I'm the divine beast!" "I'm this" "I'm that" "btw guys it's just coding"
Reading this does feel like I'm auto-reading without thinking what the next part of the story will be nor will I be looking forward to the next chapter. So i can't say I hate it, I'm just not this manhwa's demographic.
Am I going to continue? Yes. It's easy mode! Ain't the best story for this genre but I can at least learn what I like and add inspiration in my works.
Nah I get what you mean. Like I’m under 25 years old but halfway thru I just started skimming the chapters cause I feel like nothings really happening.
Like I’m glad the FL is living her life freely but also it annoys me how she’s lowkey an airhead. I like how the ML is a green flag overall but a part of me feels like he’s been kinda boring. Idk their relationship isn’t really screaming to me
It’s because the writers don’t bother putting any effort into thinking up schemes, intrigue, or anything like that anymore. They’ve gotten lazy and just throw in pretty art while repeating the same formula: the female lead is always mistreated, her adoptive family is mean and jealous, her biological family is wealthy and affectionate, and then the guy falls in love with her in everything is perfect. I swear, like 80% of straight novels are basically like this.
I felt like the ending was a bit rushed. They suddenly entered the witch's lore and i was confused. Overall it was nice but i sorta want to see more of the i love yous from Sion to Laila
Everyone is a victim of the spell. But i do understand it manifest their love far beyond, and seeing how the one with the least thought of power can control their desire a bit better comparing to someone who has everything and can't control their desire says something about the bachelors.
Honestly, sometimes I do think the MC is infuriating but if I were to be in her place, man. I'll just blame myself for what happened and probably isolate myself from the rest of the world.
Man. The art is good but god damn, the story is fucking ass. Like, pseudo incest man. 8 chapters in AND then they be like "we're not actually biological btw so it's okay if we rape you" like what kind of bullshit is that lol
For Paula's excuse being that Alice is "a noble and had a good upbringing and suddenly stealing the spotlight because she's pregnant and new in town." Like, it seems as though Paula doesn't understand the meaning of welcoming a newcomer into their village and help them get comfortable.
For Paula to be in love immediately with a man that has horrendous flirting tactic is beyond me. For her to get the same treatment as how her father abused her is ridiculously too.
I understand the blinded by love but man, that dick can make you sacrifice the whole village, blame MC for their death and willing to get abused once again??
That penis itself is a demon. Holy shit.
Perhaps she had yearn a noble life. Maybe she did not want to live in a village forever. Wanted to be taken away by a prince. But man, the visual did not make him looking like a prince lol.
