Disappointing on all fronts?

ReviewRaptor October 15, 2024 7:14 am

I saw the promo and then headed over here.
EDIT: Promo is this one: https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/the_planned_first_kiss/

Don't get me wrong, the art here is still decent but it's SO generic looking now that neither the MC nor the emperor look special in any way or have appeal.
I mean, the emperor himself looks like a generic 'cold northern duke' fuckboy.
At least the version in the promo actually looked like an adult man with something going on behind the scenes and his facial shape had some flavour to it. This one is just a generic young dude copy pasta.
I like young dudes but come the fuck on, would it kill comic adaptations to at least put SOME effort into making them look special for a change? Or actually making them look like grown adults with a high social title??

And based on the short part i read AND comments, the writing was made just as half-assed for this.

I'm really not sure if i want to bother with this.
Sounds like another candidate for the list of: Story is nice, but the comic doesn't do the novel justice. ( ̄へ ̄)
