Why is every angle of the crown prince fine but looking straight at his face make him look like a parody of an overly exaggerated male lead in a manga! Lol his too long sharp chin and beefy neck make him look stupidly funny looking!
As a fellow artist (although a different type, I suck at humans rly) I might be able to help clear this one up. XD
There are times when an inexperienced or just not perfectly skilled artist can draw things at certain angles and have it look incredibly gorgeous while some other angles are...well, let's just say things might not be as easy to get the form right or even match up to previous drawings and their anatomy. It happens in case there is lack of experience, tho it usually fades over time.
BUT, i have to admit that frontal view or clear sideview is usually the easiest forms to draw for people. It tends to make it easier to get the anatomy right since there is such easy focus points and it should be easier to align things correctly. Tho i know there are angles an artist might just not be fond of, so maybe in this case we have someone that just really hates working on that angle and hence doesn't spend time fixing up their skills for that. I personally have those habits too, tho it's easy to work around them anyway if you use other angles. Especially in comics it's very easy to do so.
Anyway, it's something I have noticed a lot too over the years (especially in webtoons and comics). Either with the frontal view or a 'oblique' angle (either taken from the front or back, not sure if that is the official word but you can google what I mean with: anime angle oblique).
I agree with you on the things you talked about. The art style is really good! With the other male characters you see, they look pretty fine. Besides the frontal angle of the ML, all the angles you see of him are not bad. The intention of him being the ML is supposed to be exaggerated I think he to exaggerated in the frontal angle for me. I just feel weird looking at that part. IDK. But I will say, I do like the way the Female characters are drawn.

Oh shoot! Sorry for the extra reply!(￣∇￣")
There is a third chapter already translated but there is no more after that. SAD
