The Duke's Servant
In the beginning, i was kinda obsessed with this one, to the point of creating a tapas profile just to read it. I liked the ml and fl, bc even if they where a little cliché, as the story itself dictated, they weren't silly, overdramatic and they made sense so i was pulled into the story and i was enjoying it (maybe a lil too much). As the chapters progressed though, i saw the change in the art style but didn't pay it any mind as for me the story was more important. But after that, i noticed that the characters themselves started to change as well, to the point that I couldn't recognise them anymore. You might say "character development, duh" but not like that,not worse development in their core characteristics.. Establishing one thing as fact and then doing another just to advance the plot or to show a certain scene, Characters turning toxic out of nowhere to create conflict or make a character realise something and then just not addressing an out-of-character behaviour at all, to name some of the things that weren't sitting well with me. So at the end i lost my interest and I ended up dropping it. Such a shame, really. It had so much potential..
Kimetsu no Yaiba
Bitch, this one did a 180 on me and while i started it, thinking it was a classic shounen with the protagonist as the 'chosen one', 'the one who's gonna be on top' etc. etc., i ended up rooting for everyone and crying for everyone and fuck, my feelings..just read it without any expectations
A Painter Behind the Curtain
Kinda stereotypical, kinda felt bad for the poor painter but nice art and SPOILER a cute ending (from where I read elsewhere)
Contract Concubine Webtoon
Read until the brother(?) I think was introduced. Then dropped. Did not appeal to me anymore. It's a cute and funny read, but once you start to think about the plot and characters more it kinda falls apart. My opinion
Tale of the Yellow Dragon
I don't remember how i felt wjen i started this but i do remember finishing it with tears and rooting for the main couple. Maybe i need to read it once more now that's finished. The art is beautiful and the sex scenes are steamyyy. The plot is a stereotypical one that I've seen before but it was well made. 9/10
