cool concept

I have to admit I don’t care for the romance in this, but I’m much more interested in the ancient Egyptian mythology and culture, as well as much more humanized gods. I found the title interesting, as it seems like a reference to Vergil’s Aeneid (also translates to Ennead), which is about the founding of Rome. The Aeneid is essentially about Roman supremacy, and is very critical(/racist) of the Egyptian culture, which I found strange considering the story is literally about the Egyptian gods. I liked the stylistic choice to make the anthropomorphic gods ‘wear’ their respective animal heads instead of actually being anthropomorphic, and I’m a little bit in love with the character design of the sun goddess. I’m hoping that the title Ennead implies that there might be at some point an inclusion of the Roman gods, even though that’s probably just a stretch. I think it would be really cool to see another ‘cast’ of gods, just because I love the artist’s design of the Egyptian ones. Unfortunately I can’t be bothered with the romance, but I’m so in love with the execution of the idea and all of the art/design choices in the story.

    Pretty much why I stick around too. Design-wise, it's executed to perfection. This manwha is absolutely gorgeous, there's no denying that. the character design is amazing, (Seth is my favorite design, which is a huge plus since he's the main character. I also liked the foreign god) I love it when there's expositional information on the myths and you have these stylized figures narrating the story.. it's so good. Story-wise, it does lack. there are times were I find it stagnant and repetitive, even confusing, and too sadistic in it's depictions r4pe. No way I'm sticking it out for Romance. The art style is superior quality to most manwhas I've seen produced.

    Same here, lmao. Lets gather signatures to make a petition for the author to pay more attention to the non.erotic scenes

    This comment chain made me smile. This is also a large part of why I stick with this story, the art and the setting is so good. I cannot let go and willing to overlook its flaws. I genuinely struggle to through the non-con scenes. It feels gross to read it at times and feels like the authors are being deliberate with the constant degradation. Cannot let go though.
