haha, i'm a sucker for period dramas and period mangas (eastern or western based) so i didn't notice. i rather enjoy the political aspect of the story.
I wonder what others period manga you've read?? I didn't find many like this in BL/Yaoi world so far.....
well I follow this manga for years, I forgot how many years, the storyline not as shallow as some most other period yaoi mangas, the two main characters depth and development also the dialogue line will draw you into their circle so you'll grow to love the main characters and their life line, I sort of grow with this manga so I say this one is one of my baby. ^^.
I've tried to get into this story several times, but I always lose interest. The problem is reading it is like reading something I've already read five times before. It's so much like every other period drama I've ever read or seen I find it boring.
Anyone else notice the same thing?
