SPOILERS!!
Dawg wtf is this hoe shagar talking abt at the end of the second volume going bout sum ‘you were kind and caring’ to luso like this is NOT the same dude???? Are we still talking about that microaggression master rapist motherfucker from the first volume??? Did you forget how you implied he only comes to help you after you’re in critical state???? Hello???? Hello???? Hello????????
From Shagar's perspective he probably was caring, considering his circumstances, I can manage to over look Luso, because I have a bigger thorn in my side.
My biggest pet peeve with this manga is Shagar's relationship with the kingdom. Like they literally set him up to choose between survival and rape, but now they're all acting like all is well in the land of the living.
I hate both tbh. Luso literally let him get critical so Shagar's energy would get more potent. Shagar literally explained in first 2 chapters that having overflowing or not enough energy for a long period of time can cause serious health problems. So him overflowing repeatedly to the point that he passes out in puddles of blood, should at some point have very negative effect on his body.
And then the Kingdom. In the 2nd fucking chapter he detests the Kingdom and people in it because they put a seal on him, yet were mad when he shared his energy with anyone and everyone because he just had too much and he couldn't be picky with who he shares it with. He literally said he is mad at the Kingdom (King) because they are the ones making to exhange energy, yet are still mad the people he shared the energy with, created problems.
And then later chapters as well touch up on his stance
Yet in volume 2 the King is yeah no foul. And Shagar is like "Ofc bestie no biggie" like dude. DUDE???????????? Are we reading the same fucking story
I still dislike Luso, but I just hate the kingdom more. When I read chapter 7.5 I "kind of" understood Shagar's you were nice statement. In a world that just kept on taking from Shagar, Luso at least gave something even though the relationship was basically a farmer and farm situation, with Shagar being the farm.
Also it's been a while since I read this but wasn't in inferred that Shagar could have released himself or something, if that's the case why did he put himself through all this.
If you’re looking at the reviews trying to decide wether or not to, this is why you should:
-it’s completed and has a bingeable amount of chapters (51)
-Tall nerdy cute sweet “protagonist” character who’s a huge stan of “female love interest” but most importantly ISNT STUPID OR DENSE
-“Villain” of the story does not induce high cortisol and has a nice ending imo
-“Female love interest” has short hair and gives hot vibes you could swoon for and is like half butch but still feminine plenty
-No sexual assault or harassment or rape
-Sweet ending
-Doesn’t give underlying tones of misogyny like most yuri I’ve read
-MISUNDERSTANDING ARC IS RESOLVED IN LIKE TWO CHAPTERS!!!
-Doesn’t feel like it was made for the male gaze in the SLIGHTEST
-The characters unfortunately don’t get a large amount of backstory info at all, but characters feel 3D and well-rounded, and it’s not hard to fill in the rest of the story w context clues









I think this is pretty good, but the author absolutely fumbled the ball on the part where Manaria shows up. The ending of that part of the story was trash, in my opinion. The author has them shake hands and sort of make up, and Manaria goes on her merry way, like it’s supposed to make us like her. Is the author forgetting the fact she’s literally a rapist? Like, her whole sob story background is “wahhh I SA’d a girl and she left meeee” like I’m sorry YOU RAPED a girl, but now all my respect for you is eternally gone. Not to mention she THREATENS TO RAPE ANOTHER GIRL, IN FRONT OF THE GIRL WHO LIKES HER. And even more importantly, the author just completely throws away the girl who got raped? She shows up in like two panels and disappears. At the VERY least, if Manaria is trying to be a character we like, she needs to properly apologize, do her time in fucking JAIL, and pay for that girl’s therapy for life. NONE of that makes me like her, and another thing! Is that seriously how she treats the girl she likes?!? We’ve already established she likes raping people she likes, and her treatment of our MC really sets in stone that she’s just a straight awful person. I get the author had to make it convincing that she was in love with Claire, but her treatment of Rae is downright horrid. She duels her in a DEFENSIVE AREA and still makes her THROW UP BLOOD AND PASS OUT. Very loving. Then she threatens to rape someone in front of her, very seductive. And overall is just a massive asshole to her. And were expected to not hate the shit out of her at the end and just accept their neutral parting???? No, she literally deserves to be thrown into jail. Only reason she gets away with it is because she’s royalty, and that poor girl she raped didn’t tell anyone and just left, probably because she couldn’t do anything in her situation.
