TheChilliest's Manga

Hesitant to read at first but other than the strange beauty standards with scars, freckles, birthmarks, and even weight I kinda like that in a way women have more power and are respected especially with the men to women ratio bein unbalanced. When they say beast men they really mean that though what with the territory conflicts, desire for reproduction, I'm not a fan of eating someone else's cubs even if they won't stay off my land (sorry Curtis), the power ranking... many things are discussed about wild animals that I just remembered or learned. In this civilization men are the ones that get discarded if they find the right solo partner but women actually practice polygamy...I was shook when the level of connection between the women and her partner means they can be imparted with the powers of their husbands. However, it doesn't look like many women have strong connections with their husbands and beautiful women aren't as common. What confuses me is why don't the beast women have ears and tails like the males? I've gotta say I think that maybe feral beast men aren't as bad as the rumors say because I love Curtis...he definitely doesn't treat Bai poorly once he understands warm blooded mammals better and for the most part that instinctive fear of snakes fades with his maturity and sweetness but he does have a fiercely predatory side as well not to mention his jealously. Parker isn't bad he's kinda cute and thoughtful...Winston,Harvey, and Muiri grow on me more and more but you've gots to have serious bravery and power to go up against Curtis...as sweet as he can be is literally deadly! I didn't think I get so caught up in this beastly world but I'm interested in what the merfolk look like, only downside is that if you get pregnant it's just you and your husbands handling the labor unless there are complications plus you've got to get inventive with cooking and clothes.

The fun part about this is that I didn't know exactly how they recognize they're mutual feelings for each other...I loved how Del wanted to start calling her by a nickname so he just did so casually and she took it as a competition by giving him one back! I get that the earth and water gods wanted to suppress fire and wind gods but it was very reckless creating a being with no direction then at some point he winds up in the human world full of sounds and smells that he's unaccustomed to...I'm glad that he got a bit of warmth and kindness in his life it was wonderful seeing the changes in Del and LynLyn and how everything slowly started to tie together.

I really really enjoy the wit and personalities in this plot plus it helps that there is no damsel in distress b.s.! It's cool how the female protagonist entered the past while the former owner of her body had just attempted to kill her husband for a pitiful love of the crown and oldest prince as well as the development of love and admiration for the female protagonist and the third prince is fun as after a year of marriage they go back to the dating stages! A running theme is also the dedication of the closest servants it's truly beautiful as well as the need to seek justice for its own sake and not for personal gain...also the sad yet cool thing is that the female protagonist is praised for her intellect surpassing women her own age which is awesome but it's because she was allowed such education from modern times while women in the past weren't.
