Ray is such a freaking menace I love him so much lol!! I love how he's not afraid to throw fists with nobility. Often times in these types of manga the good guys are just pushovers and the bad guys get away with everything just because they're upper class. It's so refreshing to see the good guys getting the upper hand this time. I also like how Ray is portrayed as being extremely capable physically (especially during the mugwort hunting scene) which is an unexpected character trait for someone who looks beautiful like him. Yay for breaking character stereotypes!
P/s : Eddy x Andrew where?? Author teased us a bit with their small interaction so I was hoping to see more of them. And Eddy is freaking hot too! Its a crime for him to not have his own story!!
As others have mentioned in the comments, this is corny as fuck. It's like someone took all the showbiz related BL tropes and then dial it up to 11. The overall plot and characters also feels a bit shallow. While I didn't stop reading it, I can't say I'm fully invested in it either. It's more like "I'm already at ch5, might as well finish it.."
That being said, I can't say its a bad manga either. It's like one of those cheesy rom-com stories where you can just turn off your brain and enjoy the fluff. It's written for a specific group of people. Its not for me, but I'm sure a lot of people enjoyed reading this..
First off, I enjoyed reading it. Especially in the beginning because I think it has a lot of premise for a good single father BL story. But then the whole 'father complex' thing kinda threw me off a bit. It's not like its bad, but I think it could've been done better? Not to mention the overall plot seems a bit rushed? They both just met each other and they already told their whole life story. Also, this is one of the instances where the sex disrupts the storytelling. If there were more communication and spending time together and less sex, their relationship would've been more believable.
Overall its still an ok manga, its just a shame because it could've been better. Usually single father BL or childcare stories consists of a small child or baby, so I was hoping to see more with a teenage son/daughter..
Surprisingly, there aren't a lot of Korean x Japanese, or even with Chinese characters in BL. When it comes to foreigner love interest in BL mangas, it's always either European, American or Middle Eastern. So this manga feels like a 'fresh' idea even though its plot isn't that uncommon.
I also like the concept of having language barrier between the two characters. The way they kept used their phones to keep communicating with each other felt very endearing to me. Their situation also kinda reminds me of a k-drama where a Korean and a Japanese became roommates lol..
P/s: Woojin is a bitch. I get that the author wanna add some drama into the story. But I would've enjoyed the manga even if he wasn't in the picture, probably more so ..
Almost everyone in this manga is an idiot lol .. This is exactly what I need right now since I've been reading mostly stressful and depressing BLs lately. I love that there's not much twist and turn, and everyone ended up being rather wholesome especially the CEO. Also, I absolutely love the way the mangaka draws the characters reaction faces, they're either really cute or downright hilarious..
It's above average I guess. I still enjoyed reading some parts of it. While I didn't like how Allon was unnecessarily dickish towards Nox in the beginning (I know he had his reasons but still), I like him more when he started to warm up to Nox in later chapters. But overall the writing still feels a bit weak. Maybe its because I've been binging on a lot of Korean medieval fantasy manhwas but the setting, world and lore feels generic to me. I saw some comments that mentioned that this is the author's first published work so I think its pretty good for a first attempt..
I'm glad the story doesn't have much drama (except for some chapters near the end). Sometimes you just wanna sit back and enjoy the fluff you know..
p/s: I wish Lou kept the short hair look, he looks hotter imo lol ..
