Icl, I found a few pictures of this manhwa on TikTok and thought it’d be some comedy, but I was so wrong. I’m just completely weirded out after the chapter with the other ghost and now this. I felt my stomach revolt out of disgust
I think I started reading this story when I was 15, and I’ve been following it ever since. I’m already 20, and at this point, death is the only ending for the villainess will always be a core memory of mine. Reading Penelope’s journey, her struggles, achievements, etc always had me on edge, excited to read what’s next, and I suppose the best way to express how I felt throughout the manhwa is like a rollercoaster of emotions for a while. I’ll miss reading each update, and hopefully there will be side stories to go with it. A part of me still can’t believe that technically it’s already over since it’s been so long, but everything has to come to an end at some point.
I love this story a lot, and I somewhat enjoyed the whole Yvonne ending arc, ig, but a part of me just felt like the story was dragging on towards the end compared to the beginning and middle. At the start, I remember I used to swipe immediately to figure out what’s going on and got really excited to see whatever happened in that chapter, but towards the end, it was somewhat of a bore. I just kept swiping, but still understanding what was going on. This is one of my few complaints. Another of my complaints concerns Winter and Eckles. I cared enough for Winter, and I felt like the way they ended things without figuring out what happened to him is just… sad. But my biggest issue is Eckles. I commented on this issue a year ago. Still, it just saddens me that his ending was disregarded after he was used as the crazy yandere psychopath semi-antagonist. It just irks me how they just ruined his character and killed him off afterward, though understandably he’s done shit himself that’s very unjustifiable and terrible. I wish that they could have given him a decent ending at least. Aside from that, I would’ve loved to see more about Yvonne, if that’s how you spell her name. Not saying that I liked her, but her character is interesting and there are just so many questions involving her, but I don’t know if it’s me, but I felt like her whole antagonist arc was somewhat… bleak??? If that’s understandable at least.
That's pretty much it though. I feel like most of the characters are flawed, even our amazing protagonist, Penelope, but that’s what I like about them: how they aren’t completely innocent or perfect. The art was beautiful, and it honestly inspired me to get back into it after putting it on hold for so long. The plot and dialogue were interesting; sometimes they were funny, sometimes depressing, and sometimes suspenseful, and that’s what I loved about it. And it just feels unreal to me still that it’s over. Anyways, I'd love to see some short stories between Penelope and Callisto if their relationship progresses, including everyone else’s lives.
As a novel reader I can tell you there is more to be shown. After the main story concluded (in the novel) there were a lot of bonus chapters to explain what happened to Winter, Og Yvonne, Eckles, the Dukedom, and what happened to Penelope and Callisto as well. I can definitely say there is still more to come, and now that I have seen that the creator of the webtoon has confirmed side stories, I can't wait to see how they will portray everything.
It’s been a while since I read a GL, and I just saw this story on my TikTok fyp, and honestly. It was okay. I loved the art and the setting itself, but honestly, the MC, the American woman, was doing too much, if you ask me. I get that she’s supposed to be a yearner, but at the same time I felt like the entire relationship was so unbalanced for a while until closing into the very end of the story. I honestly found Dr. Lee very interesting though, even though she herself can be considered a flawed character. I do think the characters are pretty well written in some circumstances, but I honestly found it a bore sometimes, and I couldn’t really get into the story .
The art looks amazing, I’ll admit that, but honestly, it weirds me out how this type of thing is romanticized. The mc is taking care of the ml as a child, and once the child is of age, they fuck . It genuinely weirds me out how many stories I’ve seen with a similar storyline to this from a romantic perspective; it just grosses me out, tbh. I’m sure the story has a interesting plot, but I’m just gonna drop this
I agree with you!! it's a shame since the art is pretty, but I hate to see this type of weird age gap plot over and over again
I’ve finally caught up with this story, and honestly, there are some things that I liked, and others that I didn’t. First, the main couple is pretty cute, though I wouldn’t say I was completely entertained or on the edge of my seat whenever something happened. I did enjoy the slice-of-life feel of their relationship, and, honestly, I adored the ML.
Now, secondly, the situation with the second couple.
I did not enjoy them together at all. Yes, I felt that the main couple was pretty rushed, but this pairing?? I just felt like there should’ve been more time for them to develop, not as a couple yet, but to get to know each other far better, to understand each other, and, honestly, to help each other grow. I felt like there wasn’t much of that, and I was so disappointed. I wouldn’t say it was a slow burn, but they definitely needed more development. Even if the silver-haired guy helped the alpha slowly get out of his comfort zone, I think there should’ve been more. I pictured more of a friendship between these two than a relationship icl. And thirdly, the latest chapters.
What the fuck was that??? I get that it’s their first time, but if someone is telling you to stop, you stop. It was pretty forceful, and I couldn’t stand the beta at all, which made me dislike him even more as a person. The alpha did talk about his past, and bottoming was a completely new experience for him, but the silver-haired guy genuinely did not give a fuck and wasn't patient at all. It was uncomfortable reading all that, and I would've preferred to see chapters where the alpha became more social, learned to love right, and grew as a person, because I really liked how he changed after we were first introduced to him in the story. But then this happened. Idk, this just gave me the ick.
THANK UUUU OMGGG
I thought the cover looked really cute, and I only read one chapter… it’s fucking pedophilia , I am not reading shit like this.
LITERALLLLLY like that’s ur kid u cannot fuck that lil ass dog
Frr, I’ve been reading the comments, and hardly anyone is addressing this . It’s just fucking weird, especially how people are just hyping this shit up. I feel like this crap is just becoming normalized in some manhwas sometimes…
It definitely is and this shit is just sooo weird!! It doesn’t matter if he grew up in 2 yrs u still raised that kid and it’s ur CHILD u don’t fuck ur kid which might be a hot take to the ppl in the comment section
D: oh yeah wtaf. Showing him in his fuckin onesie and highchair what is wrong with people can we PLEASE just make something regular </3
Facts, idk it’s genuinely so fucking weird , there are so many ideas that could’ve been used instead of pedophilia.
Exactlyy!!
only saw the cover, didn't even read ch1 bc of this comment. vro. wdym p#dophilia???? yoooooo authors these days just be publishing anything...
Yep, I read the first chapter and I’m not even going to read the rest , it’s just full on pedo garbage. And literally, some authors just post whatever comes to their mind, even if it’s crazy and disgusting
I thought that this could be an interesting story. I don’t really find many monster stories, and I was hoping for some romance, something cute excluding the whole cover ofc, but instead it’s just a whole rape plot. I do think the whole story world is interesting, ig, but I won’t be continuing it .
