I don't like it as much as I thought I would doesn't deserve that high rating tbh. she's stupid plus idk what it is but I don't connect with the fl at all like she's bland there's also not much rapport building done at all with the cast. the ml is cringe like pls u r 14, that r u an angel line was barf. it's a 14 yr old with a 6 yr olds face makes him look eery/ugly/bizarre? The art is pretty but the artist's skill level must not be good if many times they avoid drawing faces n I'm just looking at faceless characters w speech bubbles or backshots of characters.
Anyway fight me all u want can't change my mind n can't stop me from commenting these hysteric fans were bullying a commenter about not liking the fl. Girly pop just like u like something n comment on it others can have different opinions n comment on it.
How is she stupid? It's up to you on how you feel about a series but serious question, how is fl stupid?
Skill is not a question when you choose not to draw faces.its time constraints and efficiency
When u grow up with ppl like that u can't end up with the personality of flowers n rainbows. How she never questioned things when she got out like he removed the curse there's no way for her to get hurt by him now so y didn't she get suspicious or try to investigate she was free for 2 yearsplus we see that she doubted byron somewhat because of how he treated her in a hot n cold way! a normal reaction would be to just accept that whether she thought she was afake or not she was gonna be Ayla now, n maybe find answers from onwards. She'd have to have some braincells if she master's poison, swordsmanship n other miscellaneous things he taught her.
I get time n efficiency is important but maybe make art n costumes less extravagant n focus on other things. All settings don't require such lavishness. The faces thing I said is not a big deal but it was so overdone that it sticks out a lot. Many series use this tactic but it's not noticable because it's not in every chapter n in every few panels. The chapters aren't even that long so.....
Also u say it's upto me how I feel but then get hurt n question y I feel how I feel about the fl
Are we reading the same manhwa here?
lol just don’t read it then.
Idk, my first thought abt the curse was that he didn’t remove it back then, just created new one. Plus, she barely spent any time w/ her real parents, and that redhairdude was messing her head since she was a kid, it's surprising that she even managed to break free from his influence.
but true, ml is weird, he analyzes stuff so well sometimes, then suddenly he’s just dumb af
Like genuinely asking because this type of a storyline is only ever present in smut fiction. There's no depth whatsoever, her stomach growls n she tells him she hasn't eaten any normal person's response would be: y not would u like something to eat n so on but he thinks the sound of her stomach grumbling is desirable???? Pls get this man laid his puberty came late. And this girl coming from a harsh environment should logically be vary n can be naive but not this stupid infailized thinking.
The thing that's the worst crime thoo this disgusting greasy old fart count asks a young girl if she's consummated her marriage making disgusting hand gestures n proceeds to tell her how to seduce, internally thinking he would've taught her if he had time
Read a bit more. It's not a bad read if u don't want to use any braincells while reading I guess. Still not something I would read so byee
Woah is there a word limit I'm pretty sure that's not the last line I wrote in my og comment. Did they add a word limit after the comments were added back?
I don't think so? Sometimes they erase the emojis and I also noticed if you put emoji in middle, all other words behind it will also vanish. But you should be able to edit it by clicking on the title and edit
I see. Did some experimenting and there's quite a few words u can't write or it will just not post the comment/reply not just the curse words. Things like T-rash or garb-age n so on some sites censor god n hell too idk about this one
This story is already such a good adaptation but there's still new details to find when I read the novel
Hey could you please share where I could also read the novel, thank you!
I'm sorry I lost the tab a long time ago. It was a PDF link n at some point the translations were horrid idk how I read the thing I still have the PDF but idk if it's still on the web tho.
For the ppl who say why can't she end up with her killer go away n so on blah blah Stockholm syndrome apologists
Please do US a favor, Move along pls we have mouths too n we can have opinions don't like it then don't step outside snowflake
If a story is already bad n it ends badly I don't mind but if a story is good and ends badly/rushed without proper closure I'm maddd. It tickles all my inverse scales n I feel betrayed so Im harsh with it tough love baby
This was...... underwhelming after that amazing season 1 we get this. At the start this had a sort of similar vibe to "Kill the villainess" so I was really looking forward to it however we got garbage I'm gonna be severe with this cz the author was vv inconsiderate to the character as a person n only focused on short term gain by satisfying inexperienced younglings shallow readers. wth all her suffering trauma was left unresolved n unaddressed so we get this in the end her scurrying off to find something to do which was pathetic out of place. she didn't have a problem running away as unknown girl in one of her past lives so how come she's feeling lost n purposeless after moving into sion mansion.
Their was a checklist n the author was sprinting to complete it in the second season
1. Randomly introduce a new obsessive 2nd male lead-ish character/villain
2. Force Sion's death so he can move to the plot of hero
3. How to Kill the Hildegards? Use fl who's vv big brainy now?
4. Introduce some new inconsequential characters to save the fl
5. Muddle through somehow the all powerful villain not finding the fl at Cecils place???
6. Sion's alive n defeats the big bad off screen
7. He's back n gets Laila pardoned
8. They meet n oh she's not reminded of her murderer wohioo great job dumbass
9. BOTH Stuck in a loop of I don't deserve her/him
10. Solution? Don't confess but get married??????
I'm not asking for much here I don't care if u wanna create drama but if he's so guilty at least he should confess that he remembers everything!!! There u get drama n then the subsequent confession of feelings become easier, I'm taking bout the trauma feelings that were seemingly forgotten n now invalid for some reason. After that if they get together then it's up to the writer n I won't complain after. This romance is disgusts me because it's based on a woman's suffering n I know that's not what was intended but that's what it is... Byee
Wow the ml has the trashiest personality I've ever seen so off putting read it again if u still don't see it u must be visually impaired
Quick question in comparison with jinx why is bj Alex so highly rated if it's also a similar trope of trash ml wife chasing crematorium. I never got to reading it but I read some comments where readers made mentions of similarities n all so I thought it's rating would also be in the dumps
Idk I never rate, I go back just for the second couple
ml was less of an asshole compared to compared to this dumbfuck shitface we hace over here, and the groveling was reeeaally intense and satisfying to see. personally i hate both mls but bj alex's ml was a bit more forgivable. (though both mcs follow that pushover stereotype at first, i personally think kim dan is better than bj's mc)
Bc most of the angry comments are from 12 year olds who shouldn't be reading this. None of them are truly mad at jjk they just want to watch a hot guy be sorry for the shit he did. They say they hate the story but they lurk in the comments even when there's no release.
Lol so true
Bj alex and jinx have the same exact narrative structure, ppl complaining will fking shut their mouths at the end of the redemption arc just like they did with bj alex. Just fking impatient kids.
They don't hate JJk, they are just obsessed about his actions and want him to be perfect ASAP.
I agree
:)))
Yesssssss that couple is so cute
Wow very interesting replies. I agree, too many kids on here mess up the ratings of good stories. Childishly scuttling in the comments with things like "don't like it don't read it then". N I'm like kid respectfully, shut up.
Literally like someone said they were 12 I’m like gtf of this website bruh for your mental growth health
When I read the novel I imagined his mother a lot more beautiful cz that's how she was described so a bit of a let down that they didn't make her as such cz she's a villain
I mean sure I'll read it is it the same title as love in eastern game fantasy? Also if you have link that would be very much appreciated

I know I'm late but for those still looking it's on novel updates. Name is The guide to capturing a black lotus
Gurl you are late lucky for you I am still alive lmao
Well that was ashitshow of an ending. Anytime there's a dialogue like "what's happening" I'm like gurl same so many plot points were abandoned to accommodate new ones it's killing me. it's one star because many manhwa publishers only want to gather views through virality they might be giving the projects to unskilled personal after season one or until they can get as much juice out of readers. I know I can't talk high and mighty since I am consuming it for free but if readers keep giving great ratings to low quality and nowadays AI slop, we'll only get this. It makes sense why they'd do this since once readers start reading they are less likely to leave midway especially after spending their coin but that doesn't make it okay
