I love this story but as a non-novel reader i really do think the manhwa vers. could have benefitted from a little more exposition, especially starting from the chairman's death. Like I feel like everything's moving a little fast considering the fact that a lot of major characters have been introduced in the last few chaps. Im not hating tho this is my all time favorite !!!
this story and https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/soulmate_yuri/ have basically the same premise, vibe, and quality. that being said, this one is worse, and i think its a good example of how length really affects the way a story can be told. there was no time for relationship building, and we had to be told that they were close instead of being shown. even in the interactions between these two that we did see, it was awkward and they dont seem like people who have been friends for a while. plus there was BARELY an ending. anyways go read soulmate(yuri) because its a fucking amazing story with the exact same plot.
ik people are against it but tessa's about as planned and introduced as you can get. she was basically there from the beginning. sure arthur had some other love interests but they were pretty obviously not going to go anywhere, at least the way i see it. plus shes strong so...idc. i actually kind of like ig
spoilers:
i actually really liked the story. the concept, while not the first of its type, is refreshing. i really liked the twist with the mark, and i honestly think the story could have ended there. i dont wanna sound mean but the last like 7 chapters with the rumor and flashbacks were not only confusing, but unecessary. i liked hyun as a character, cause its rare to find a character that naive and starry eyed without them being annoying pushovers. plus ivan was really sweet and probably one of my favorites. i liked alek ONLY because he acted like jumin and looked like zen from mm
+ im usually not one to really care too much about artstyle as long as its not awful, but i really liked the art in the beginning and i was kinda sad to see the style change so much. i liked both but i think the style was really cool, and it reminded me of the story Never Understand !! :)
i absolutely loved the concept of this story. like dragon, pearl, reincarnation, cool. The omegaverse came as a surprise but hey I have nothing against it. The pacing of the story was just really weird for me. Like Yeon went from being annoyed by Moon to being head over heels for him in literally like a chapter and a half, after about 20 chapters of him seeing the guy as a nuisance. And the two villains of the story were overall forgettable and seemingly came out of nowhere then disappeared into nowhere. I think this story definitely would have benefitted if they didnt spend so long on the "we're complete strangers" part and spent a bit more time on flashbacks and them slowly falling in love again. Didn't like the drama in their present lives at all and I feel like there could've been enough angst with the reincarnation plotline alone.
there were a lot of things that i liked though. The artstyle, for one, was fucking amazing. I'm still on the fence about how I feel about omegaverse in this story but I liked how they included ruts (most omegaverse rarely do), and I really liked the final few chapters with the kids. Plus that thing with their unborn child was a nice addition.
Topic section is finally back so I can write about this!!! I loved this story; honestly it got just a little confusing around the middle with the introduction to the monarchs, but I figured it out eventually lol. Sung Jinwoo is the ultimate OP protagonist. He's just damn cool. I can't wait for the anime ヽ(`Д´)ノ
