GODZILLA's Favorite

I feel really really sad for Christoph
All his life people were making decisions for him
And his love was the only thing he actually wanted for himself ,the only thing that make him feel bette
And yet that was taken away from him without his consent

I understand why they did it but I dont think it was their decision to make
Maybe he would chose to relive all the memories he had while being sad instead of losing the one person he cherished

it's been about a year since i last read this but my thoughts have changed a bit about ryan and christoph. i do think in a way they deserved what they got even though their story is super tragic. ryan aided in a poison that would kill the family he was supposed to protect and christoph although he was ordered to kill them, cecilia says so herself that christoph wasn't sorry about what he had done but was scared to lose ryan and serving sihan. i wanted christoph to die but forgetting the one person who you felt comfortable with and loved with never being able to feel is a fitting punishment. christoph will essentially die without remembering that he was truly loved by anyone or being able to, all he lives for is to obey orders. //// now about kyon and lucaon, i'm sad to know kyon doesn't magically have an extended life like lucaon does after getting the symbol BUT in my headcanon i would like to believe that he is determined to be a royal blood and gets a core and they live a long happy life together (again my headcanon). that was a lot to write but i just wanted to say it once lol

This manhwa, I was reading it a year ago and left it bc I thought it was boring, I came back to read it again bc someone said it was their favorite, I didn’t enjoy reading it and was a bit confused but finished it anyway

I will start by saying the art style is so beautiful , but the story doesn’t do it for me, the real min siwon who committed suicide was just forgotten, the main character siwoon.. how can someone like him? He is beautiful but his personality screams psychopath, he was watching an innocent boy getting raped and he said it didn’t bother him and felt nothing, his overall personality is just unlikable, he gives me bullies vibes, it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t good either..

Just clarifying since this seems to come up over and over again in discussions that everything Jin does is for power. It's come up multiple times in his conversations with Suu that he just wants to leave, but he can't.
When Suu was under the impression that Jin works for the crown prince and asks him what he'll do if the crown prince loses, Jin tells him he'll run away since he's always wanted to do it anyway. Also, when they talk about growing millet, selling millet cakes and making wine, it's clear that he's actually given it a lot of thought and would love nothing more than to just leave the palace and live a peaceful life being a farmer and running a business. But like we saw in the latest chapters, it's no longer just about him. If he blinks, not just him but everyone around him will pay the price. In olden day Korea, when a person becomes King, the first thing they do is kill off all possible competition and the families of people likely to support a competitor (every generation from the oldest to the youngest) or sell them as slaves. That's how Nadan ended up a slave (because he was the illegitimate child of a noble who was killed for treason along with his family when the current King came to power).
So yeah, just clarifying a point. No opinions.

I think the author picked the wrong time for the back story. The action was finally moving and now we have to wait. Personally things have gone too far for me to care about his intentions as a child. He is a ruthless man now. That is who we are dealing with.

People must understand that the characters move and decide with a goal to achieve. Their wrong doings are for them to reach that goal. Jin wanted stability, Suu wanted freedom. Suu killed people to liberate both him and Nadan. Jin killed people to achieve a power that will never be questioned.

Up until now, only Nadan and a few minor characters had upheld a righteous act. And those acts could have caused them or someone else to die.

The reason Suryeon and Suu met was because Suu was going to drug his horse to kill him. But Sahara ate the horses before he could. When Suu was brought to the shrine, each of them was doing it for their own selfishness. Sahara wanted to eat Suu, Suryeon wanted to find a not too expensive and messy meal for Sahara and someone to handle him, Suu wanted to use the influence of Sahara & Suryeon for his own ends. Considering Suryeon is a prince and Suu is his servant, Suryeon has always treated Suu well while Suu has continued to betray him, selling information about him and Sahara to the Queen. In the latest plot, Suu sold out both Sahara and Suryeon to the Queen to save himself and Nadan. He is getting Sahara to use up so much of his energy to make rain and then he plans to leave Sahara behind to face the consequences coz he doesn't even plan to take him with him when he flees. Also, he plans to kill Suryeon by giving him poisoned tea and the only reason he can do that is because Suryeon will take a drink from him though he doesn't trust anyone else enough to take a drink from them.
I'm surprised Suu didn't think this through. If the dragon were to bring rain in line with what the Queen proclaims, obviously Suryeon would know that Suu and Sahara are plotting against him. How exactly did he think it would go down? Also, even after he knew that Suu has something to do with what was happening (since he said "it always ends up this way" as in people he trusts always betray him), he limited himself to breaking his ankle (which he would be fixing shortly anyway) and not killing him. In fact, he was about to jump in the lake when the dragon pulled Suu in. To sum it up, Suu was willing to use Sahara and kill Suryeon to get what he wants even though both of them trust him and would go out of their way to protect him.
So, basically, stop hating on characters and just enjoy the ride. None of them are good and none of them are evil. As for Sahara, most human emotions don't even apply to him. It is not the typical manga where characters are black and white.

What's happening to Suu ? why He gots scales ?? Thrufully, I'm reading this manga without understanding it LOL

I wonder if we'll get more development with Sahara. So far, Sahara has been somewhat of a one-dimensional character. Suu and Hwaryun have had the most development so far (individually and in terms of "relationship"). I'm genuinely curious as to how the story will play out as I can't really see Suu ending up with anyone romantically. However, we already know that Suu has been independent and self-reliant his whole life, so it wouldn't make much sense for his character development to head in that direction. We can see that he has always yearned to love someone and be loved in return (regardless of what kind of love it is, he has received little of it in any form). So far Sahara has displayed blind devotion to Suu after supposedly "imprinting" on him. As of now, it seems that Suu doesn't really acknowledge Sahara. A few chapters back, when Suu felt that "nobody cared for him" when clearly Sahara was prepared to give his all for him, Suu only thought about Nadan and Hwaryun. I think this is because Suu was subconsciously thinking in terms of "romantic love" (even if his feelings for both of them were messed up at that point). It's clear that Suu has never seen Sahara as a romantic partner thus far in the story. This is completely understandable, seeing as how Sahara has been a literal child for the majority of the story. I could see the author developing their relationship more in season 3 with Sahara in his adult form, but at the same time it feels a little late to finally introduce him as a potential love interest. Suu's relationship with Hwaryun is even more complicated. Honestly, these two are the ones that threw me off the most. At first, I though that Hwaryun and Suu would both gradually develop feelings for each other and learn to trust each other. As the story went on, I thought "Oh I was right, this is what's happening". I was quite wrong. Suu and Hwaryun's relationship had been incredibly shallow from the start, and it didn't get much better. It's clear that both of the characters had some level of attraction to each other, but it ended there. They do not trust each other, and their end goal was to ultimately use each other. However, they are not the same in doing so. Suu never wanted to harm anyone. He wanted to get out of Rahan safely while doing the least possible amount of damage. Hwaryun, on the other hand, doesn't mind putting Suu in danger as long as he could save him in the end. I was reading back a while before, and in chapter 36 Suu tells Hwaryun that he's afraid of getting murdered. Hwaryun laughs, but then his face goes dark and says "I will save you, over and over again". Suu notices that he says "I'll save you" instead of "I'll protect you" but it gets brushed off. As you guys can see, this has happened multiple times in the story. Suu has been put in danger because of Hwaryun multiple times, but Hwaryun has always come to save him. This is also similar to when Hwaryun broke Suu's ankle and then had it treated and fixed. There's a lot more with Suu and Hwaryun but I'm pretty sure the rest of it is obvious and whatnot. As we all know, Hwaryun grew up in a bad environment and his outlook on the world is warped because of this. He probably genuinely thinks that he was doing the right thing by taking care of Suu and "saving him", even though he was the one who put him in danger first. I think that Hwaryun does have some genuine feelings for Suu, but these feelings aren't the most important thing to him. Suu and Hwaryun have a very toxic relationship right now, and I don't really want them to be a couple unless Hwaryun goes through some serious character development. I kind of have a feeling that Suu and Hwaryun are going to be endgame because that's how the author seems to have set it up. You can also see in the author's extra art that Suu and Hwaryun are always closer together than Suu and Sahara. Usually that indicates something. Anyways, regardless of who ends up with who, I'm completely hooked onto this story. I really didn't expect things to develop the way they did, and I'd love to see where this all goes.

Royalty and Dragon has a give & take relationship, Royalty needs tha Dragons power in exchange the Dragon feeds on the Royalty. For some reason the Dragon and Jins family is not on good terms and was cursed by the prev dragon (Saharas mom, i think) So Sahara can't feed directly on Jin so thats why they need a medium which as it happens, sahara chose Suu. Now Sahara mentioned before that to grow up as a real dragon,Suu and sahara needs to be one. Slowly these past chapters, thats what happened and I think was only delayed a bit coz each time Jin heals Suu he loses memories and I think kinda supressed it. Jin was still unsure if the Dragons loyalty was to him so to weaken him but not kill him he was putting his blood on the water thing underground, again, the dragon cant feed on him directly and it hurts him. When Suu made a deal with the consort, Jin thinks that his better of w/o the dragon and tries to kill him but Suu and sahara connection was already quite strong and wheb he dragged suu down, i think there it was complete. Now Suu needs life and Jin to feed.

Although Suu and Sahara are now one they are still seperate people and I think its just one life, they are totally connected now. They are like to halves of one person now. And as much as they don't trust Jin, they need him and Suu, confuses it with Love, and I really am not sure if it is or if its just the dragons influence. In jins part, he has a lot going on as well, the back story explains it a bit. He never really wanted anything and he mentioned that his prime objective is he does just not want others taking it. I hope I'm saying that right xD Jins a sad case of complicated childhood and life. Anyways, Suu and Sahara are hiding, coz I think theyre not sure yet what to do with all this. And I think the consort gave birth but with the Emperor dead, Sahara killed him btw, Jin is automatically Emperor as of now. That where raws end for now.:) Again this is all base on my own understanding of the story so far and looking not reading the raws

if suu really hates the crown prince WHY THE FUCK ISNT HE SHOWING HATRED TOWARDS HIM?! AND THEY'RE FUCKING EVEN AFTER THEY BETRAYED EACH OTHER PLENTY OF TIMES?! oh my god I am so fucking mad about the story line. GIVE SUU A BREAK! and why is the crown prince treating suu like shit if he really does have feelings for him wtf. I want suu to kill that damn prince and everyone who used him and live a happy life with that cute dragon. THE END. although suu can really be a pushover at times. I thought his character was supposed to have a strong mentality. why's he acting so soft now? ugh

oh wait- so sahara and suu are kinda like one now?? and i don’t know if it’s just me- but i find it ironic that Suryeon didn’t like Sahara and yet he (in a way) is about to literally fuck him lol. (because Suu and Sahara are kinda like fused together now ya know?) ANYWAYS- IM ACTUALLY SO FUCKING SAD THO, I WANT SAHARA BACKKKKKKKKK T^T LIKE I WANT TO JUMP IN THE STORY AND TAKE SAHARA WITH ME,

So, about Huan Wen and Yuan. (I remember their names but I forgot who is who TwT, but ya know the pink hair guy and the grey/whits-ish haired guy?) yeah, basically in the raws. It shows there that the pink haired boy actually developed feelings for the grey/white-ish haired boy TwT FUCC THE PINK HAIRED DUD WAS SO CUTE WITH THE GREY WHITE-ISH HAIRED GUY HE PUT HIS HEAD ON THE WHITE-ISH GREY HAIRED GUY'S HAND WHEN HE WAS ASLEEP OMFG

Why are people talking about sympathizing with the Wolf Bailang when this chapter was more focused on showing sympathy for the Snake Danqing?

this got me fricked I thought all of them would have a happy ending but nah it just got me in a helluva rollercoaster-the other stories warmed my heart tho ╥﹏╥

Bruh the endimg for the THEREPIST story i thought they may end up together, but it caught me off guard when he was like “gian, look back, please look back”, and gian didnt. I HATE IT now im crying

I've read all chapters in a row and stayed up very very very late but DAMN ! I ain't complaining because it was worth it (▰˘◡˘▰)... I can't help myself but think this manga should be adapted in an anime or a series because the story is great and I really appreciate the fact that all the characters have flaws and aren't so perfect, which actually makes them even more likeable or more detestable.
Also I think everybody is going to die at the end.

HOWEVER (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ I DON'T WANT RICHARD TO END UP WITH BUCKINGHAM !!!!!! sorry but I can't stand seeing them together...
┗( T﹏T )┛Poor Catesby, he doesn't deserve that much pain... Nor Anne, my girl !
Also, this scene in the Tower between Richard and Henry（/TДT)/ it was absolutely heart-breaking... like, they were about to accept each other until Henry went crazy because of THIS FREAKIN' MAMA !!!! (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
(Henry is also very fragile).
Can we talk about Edward Lancaster's death ? ┗( T﹏T )┛I was sad because I was starting to like this character...

Thanks for the translators !
This manga is gold.

I've foolishly read this all in the span of 1 1/2 night and-
I'm sorry but it's so painful to see Buckingham with Richard, those intimate scenes between the two made me feel so ...idk wronged. I actually hate it lol. There's no romance or appeal in it for me, yea Buck's kinda hot but knowing Catesby's true feelings for Richard- I can't bring myself to enjoy the scenes. It feels empty.

It hurts to see Richard's obliviousness to his childhood friend's silenced love. Imagine how he must feel to see him sexually with Buck. I'm aching and I'm just a mere reader lol. I mean, Richard's rlly only with glasses bc he feels that he is the only one who wants him...ugh I just feel so sad. Every time Buck says he's the only one who understands him, I mentally roll my eyes. I really really hope for Catesby to become more assertive and stop hesitating (?) to become his "light" and more than a loyal retainer. Need more private interactions.

When Richard truly and finally becomes King, what's next? He's still going to feel unaccomplished even when he reaches that status, what he really needs is to be loved- and he couldn't achieve that with Henry. They say he's changed but I feel like he fell even deeper.
Idk why but I have this sinister, formidable feeling that Catesby's death is near. I honestly hope I'm wrong. Haven't seen the raws but if Catesby dies before professing his love, I don't know if I can take it.
Yeah ultimately just want a happy ending with R x C but I know this manga is gonna relish in screwing me over
