max2payne0's Manga

Not bad, I'm just kinda bored. I stopped at ch9. The MC's ex is a piece of work. he cheats on her, dumps her, wants to get back with her, and is still sleeping with the woman he cheated on her with. The woman happens to be an ex of her new boyfriend and childhood friend, in middle school (but like the final year so I guess equivalent to the first year of high school.)
The focus is more on the story than on the smut so I can't really call this a smut manga.

I'm only on the first chapter, but... I just really want to point this out. Even if she believes in love and he doesn't, that doesn't mean she has to force him to see her point of view. Everyone has their own experiences, thoughts, and opinions, and forcing yours on someone else is not right. Because you wouldn't like it if someone did that to you, either. And of course they kiss and practically fall in love (or start to) by the end of ch1, so they're both that easy.

Another character sums it up perfectly, even though it's a josei manga she's totally a shoujo heroine.

Ch 9
I skimmed to ch 18, they finally sleep together in ch10. I'll say one thing, for a smut manga they took a while, although there was still some action from ch1.

I feel awkward with smut manga that read too much like shoujo manga. So far I like the friend and I hope it doesn't go the cliche route where he falls for her. The story with the leads is good, but not that great to me. Maybe if I'd read this a couple of years ago I might like it, but by this point I've read better. There's some spontaneous intimacy but it doesn't feel like dubious consent.

Something seems to be missing btw ch 4-5. That's where I've paused for now.

I've never been someone with patience ┐(´ー｀)┌ the same day I said I'd put this to rest, I continued to read it (since I'm bored anyway and finding new, interesting things to read is hard). But only because I skipped to the final chapters and got interested in a new character.
The op delivery knight 5-8 (Changmin) is great, but he doesn't show up a lot, since he isn't the MC, Sawol is. I don't dislike her, although I do think she made some stupid decisions that only worked well because of her ability, and a lot of luck. If not for that she would have just died. But! Moowon and his fabulous hair saved the story for me. He doesn't show up a lot either and that's just sad. I love everything about his character, but especially his hair.

This story tackles some deep themes about politics and humanity, a lot of people die. It's a very bleak world and that could be why I had a hard time getting into it. Even at first, the story didn't use much color. Was it actually grey in the beginning or was my screen too dim to see the color? Anyway it does get interesting later on, the fights were on point, but I still skimmed like 60% of this story. Not bad, just not for me.


Previous review
Ch 2 so far but it's not very interesting. Will probably skim until I either grow interest or I give up

Stopped at ch24, skipped to ch85 and read to the end (ch89).
I guess it's interesting but what's with that ending? Maybe I just missed too much, but the whole idea was that she wanted to find her sister and she supposedly does, but the end is just her crying and saying her sister's name. But I'll add one more star. Maybe I'll come back to it in the future and read the whole thing.

It takes 47 chaps just for her to become a delivery knight. Aaand ch54 for her to ruin it just when she's brought other refugees to the place she was given. She doesn't even stop to think what could happen to them if she just disappeared, ugh. Then she shouldn't have brought them there in the first place! (Tho she returns in ch63 and realized she was being selfish)
Ch 50 the new character (old blonde dude) introduced is so far the most interesting, even more than the op black haired delivery knight.


Ch 73? She makes a stupid decision to try and get into the central district or special or whatever it is. Of course she gets caught by cops immediately, and even after she's saved, somehow thinks getting into the center will be simple after ignoring warnings of special guards. If not for her cheat ability this girl would have died very quickly.

Ch85 Moowon, this sexy bastard! He and Changmin (5-8) are my favorites in this. Although, how quickly did they get the MC's DNA into a mutant because it feels like they just caught her and got her to cooperate.

Ch 5

Lots of explaining games and game mechanics than actual story
I might read in this genre but I definitely don't read them because I'm interested in the games. I'm always more interested in the people. The cover looks nice but it's not worth it to me.

Ch 30 sn 1end

First couple, cute.

Ch 42
2nd couple, a bit angsty, alot just dumb.

Ch 21

Very interesting. Would love to see the rest of it, it's actually complete already.

Don't know what I think about it yet.

Cute high school couple

Can't stand sad things, read ch 1 and skipped to ch 5
