dunno about you all but i for once appreciate a bl where the plot overshadows the romance. king's maker has always been a plot-heavy story and it's obvious the story was gonna get more complicated once the wolfgang became king. i'm glad the authors kept the focus on the story instead of the romance because many stories tend to deviate from the plot and into romance/smut once the second or third season starts. there's not a lot of stories like this in the bl genre which is why i appreciate it a lot.
the worldbuilding is so good and the art is beautiful
