I really need to process. First of all 6/10 because Jimmy/Henry is everything I want in a couple.
The author has literally so many twists in this my brain is practically spinning. And even though a lot of them I could kind of see coming, like Mason being a wolf, and Taylor having been one of the main people experimenting with wolves.
The art style is better than anything I could draw, so no comment on that.
The plot is pretty jumbled. There was a lot going on, but there was a clear beginning and end to each storyline.
I didn't enjoy how some characters developed, or how they were portrayed. Like, Scott suddenly being the good guy when he stepped up to save Henry and Jimmy. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the dude was not smart. Like, he could not have thought that far ahead, nothing in the story would lead me to believe he could come up with a plan like that, and if it wasn't just a ploy, nothing about his character would lead me to believe he would turn over a new lead all of a sudden.
Mason... Oh lovely, lovely, Mason. He was a dumbass from start to end. To say that Henry was the only person he ever cared about after what he tried to do to him? Honey, no. Mason was portrayed as a play boy who would cut people off at the drop of a hat. For ten cents and a piece of gum type shit. There was nothing to lead me to believe that he actually gave a damn about Henry.
Honestly, I do like this story. It's cute, sometimes, it's heart wrenching for no goddamn reason (fuck you Taylor, also thank you because Hemmy), the side characters were cool, and the personalities of the main characters came through in the best way... It's just... Trying to look past the translation (which some people dislike, as long as I can understand it, it's fine), the art (which some people also dislike, again, doesn't bother me), and the twists the author shoved into this hell of a story... It's actually okay.
This is a good story. I'd read it again. I hope y'all at least try and read from start to finish. If for nothing else, than to experience this author's vision. It's really not bad.
