what a lovely series with beautiful artwork!!!! such beautiful eyes, such bountiful chests, such breathtaking kisses…
the beginning confused me a little… i feel like i’m missing a story beat that shows Karlyle and Ash not so good “first” (after the new year kiss) meeting??? since Karlyle mentions they got off on a bad start and i just never really understood Ash’s relationship with Kyle either? but that confusion aside. i loved Karlyle so much, poor baby’s self esteem is so low… but Ash is here now for him!!!! i want to squish them both—RRRRR CUTENESS AGRESSION!!!!
my first impression of this was Pluto is born to draw action manhwa, but is working with BL too, and what a magnificent match up this is!!!!! love the panels of actions and non-actions, those lewd scenes are insanely dynamic.
the story is wild hahaha i can’t help but just enjoy the ride, vaguely reminiscent of how things kept escalating in TTGL, so the acceleration was expected—and i was curious on how the plot was going to resolve. i do wonder about the time passing and things seem to remain the same despite a century difference. and i still worry over all of the dead humans BUT YANNO IT’S FIIIIIIIINE.
all in all. i love the art, sid my beloved!!!!!! i love. the. bountifulness of everyone’s um heart.











dang so many characters get shot/killed in this series. stuart noooo!!!!
personally, fhe pacing is a little over the place for me and it feels like a lot of filler. i love, love, love Peter’s character design and i wish he kept his glasses on more often! the thick glasses+fluffy hair combo is so cute!
i wished we didn’t have to go too hard with the CIA/weapon dealio because Linus’ obsession over controlling Peter’s life was way more interesting to me. the visuals of the bird cage and him overseeing all of Peter’s movements were haunting and so ominous, would have loved to see more around that than hunting the nuclear weapon down. having it come full circle and revealed that Linus knew what happened with Peter in the past was great—his breaking point being him realizing he was the one who pushed his beloved to such act was a surprise for me that I should’ve seen coming.
anyway, wish for less explosives and more emotions, but it was still a fun ride!
(poor Jonathan, dude just keeps getting shot.)
