love me a good poly ending. like yes why choose one when you can have both! especially when both of them are willing? double dick double happiness or something like that…anyway! this was so good. i was skeptical at first cause it seemed a lot more like childish i guess than i expected but then it started getting hectic fast af boy but wow I’m so glad i read this. i almost couldn’t put it down
i hate when the characters are so hellbent on the original characters happiness that they keep defining what that happiness is based on a fucking novel that clearly been fucked up front the moment you started changing shit. like when will these mcs realize that just because you’re in a novel doesn’t mean that everything will have to go as the novel has written. like girl I’m on chapter 36 and she’s steady trying to run away because she believes his happiness is with the other girl. as if this mf hasn’t shown how obviously obsessed he is with you. please bffr
firstly, let me just say that i love when the female lead is strong willed and physically capable . I also love when they end up with someone that’s not the same trope of a prince or powerful duke, but instead someone without a proper title (second sons) that then take on the title/name of the wife. make him a simp and I’m in love. I also lovedddddd the magician so much! and tbh, i loved that his feelings for her weren’t romantic in nature as i always hate when authors make the female lead someone that’s romantically desirable to all male characters instead of just giving them good guy friends that want the best for them. that’s why i was so happy when he didn’t become jealous and vindictive of the ml when he found out they were together. he was more like a big brother watching out for his little sisters and that made me so happy.
listen, i really enjoyed this and i loved that they didn’t add a pile of filler chapters to stretch this story on to be 150+ chapters of easily overcome situations. however they definitely didn’t give enough in depth details of everything going on. it was more summarized to speed through than fleshed out to give it more depth. especially the end which felt more like they slapped a bandaid over a gunshot wound and called it a day. i really wished this delved more into their past lives and the gina character as well as the relationship between the two mcs at the end. but i guess i did this to myself, reading a 74 chapter story
bruh huh? was this good? sure, it’s pretty good if you focus solely on the plot development of the two leads. However. HOWEVER! you can definitely tell this author went into this initially thinking they’d throw everything at the wall and see what stuck and flesh that aspect out. because there are so many half finished subplot pieces that were just put into and then abandoned halfway that i almost feel like i read 2 different comics.
the TA had cameos as if he’d be apart of this bigger scene that would make him choose between his jealousy and doing the right thing. The “friend” side character had cameos that would lead you to believe if and when they suddenly came to know his friend was also a hybrid, he’d be disgusted and/or retaliate by selling him out. the parents appear and disappear as if by magic when they’re supposedly these worried protective type characters and then the drug plot and the primates attacking the MC plot. all of these things just kind of build and then fizz out like the author just didn’t know what to really focus on.
It could have been so much more interesting but they must have had a cap on chapters cause the end did nt even fill complete.
I’m not sure why yaoi always finds interest in incorporating rape tropes into shit as if the plot alone couldn’t have worked on its own. like, how is it fun or interesting that a victim gets to end up with their rapist/abuser and live “happily ever after” where’s the desirability in that? i genuinely don’t get it. i started this and found myself crying for the mc by chapter 9 and immediately dropped it by 10. i can’t read shit like this but it feels like comics and novels with an interesting plot always has this crap in it.
They spent far too much time on the extravagant and pretty art style that the plot lost its shape halfway through. by chapter 90 i figured nothing was going to be resolved well simply because a whole random ass magic villain popped up out of nowhere. it feels so lacking. this was a waste of time
thankfully i came to check the reviews cause i only made it to chapter 2 and was already getting annoyed at how she was so hell bent on trying to follow the plot even in the second life. and now I’m seeing they don’t even make much progress by 70? lol nah i don’t have the patience
listen idgaf what anyone says. I’m only on chapter 8 but I’m having to stop because of how terrible written this has been. not even just the translation, but the overall progress of the script.
She jumps back to when she first finds out she’s preggers after death and there’s barely any palpable surprise. it’s just straight to planning her escape. no shock or disbelief just straight to trying to plan a better life. then with the ger suddenly being able to see spirits, she show no surprise or shock about how she’s able to see them in this life as opposed to her previous one where she went her whole life without seeing them..
Then it’s like she claims them to be a rare phenomenon and that people are rarely able to even summon them let alone contract them but no one shows shock or confusion in the face of suddenly having her wash away the fire.
Plus??? they show no real sense of novelty at all new life or at the way new things are happening in this new life. like a whole fire breaks out that clearly didn’t happen before yet there’s no sense of suddenness, confusion, or worry about the future that’s already unfolding completely differently. like, if that’s how the first 8 chapters are, i can’t even begin to attempt to finish it. I’m sorry i really wanted to as well.
tbh, i think this was a lot more interesting than people give it credit for. I was going in thinking the mc would be a pushover that stuck his nose into everyone else’s business for righteousness sake thanks to a poster mentioning as such.
However, in reality everything that happened was either from targeting or because of his position in the college as a jr murim police officer so he didn’t exactly have a choice.
I also thought this was probably a great way to do a murim comic and wrap it up befpre it starts to drag because although murim can be interesting, the plots and schemes are usually so intricate and delicate that by the time you’re on chapter 200 it’s not only just getting to the crux of the story but also only have way over. i get so exhausted by that point i usually end up pausing indefinitely.
Meanwhile, this one, while action centered and plot heavy, managed to do a fine job at wrapping the story up and packaging it well enough that it doesn’t get too tiring.
the one thing i will say is that it lacked any real sense of struggle with the mc and his desire for strength. usually the character would find a master and get stronger gradually, but in this it just seemed like the mc leveled up after each fight without any real sense of development. it felt sudden.
overall, though, it was a pretty good read.
