Like seriously, why in the world were the train guys that came before Cyril (silver haired Dom guy) so freaking obsessed with purée????
I had to laugh every time one of them started _demanding_ purée to be brought out or be used on Sovian in some way.
I'm giggling right now typing this. I need to know! What's so good about this stupid purée? Like, how did that even cross their minds?
"You know what would be good with super dubious consensual sex right now?"
"No Gerald, what?"
"Some purée...I can really go for some of that right now. Pour it on everything. "
"Oh my God, yes! These mf-ers are gonna LOVE that."
WHAT!? Σ(  ̄□ ̄||)
I actually really enjoyed reading this, despite its short nature and the time skips from childhood to adulthood.

HOWEVER the gap between chapter 18 and 19, where he's just become a part of his family's hotel to suddenly asking her for a job at her own hotel which she apparently opened sometime _when_??? Well...it really through me off.
That, coupled with the final two chapters felt very rushed and like the author just wanted it to be over for some reason.
Another thing is the sub plots that were laid out but never really approached:
1) His conflict with his half-sister is just suddenly over; and while I don't think she ever apologized or they ever really spoke in depth about their issues and how to resolve them, she's close enough with him and the FL to take a vacation with her child at *their* resort instead of one of her own or someplace entirely elsewhere. When did everyone get so close? How did his a**hole father let him go so he could live his life the way he wanted?
2) His mother...she supposedly left and he was looking into her from childhood until taking a position under his sister at the family hotel, but...it just never popped up again.
3) The FL realizing that she didn't want to be just be a concierge, but that she wanted to create a welcoming place for everyone that felt like a home away from home. It's mentioned in passing in like 2 panels. When and how did she come to this realization? What was her experience like? What happened to her grandma btw? HOW THE HECK DID THEY FALL IN LOVE???????
And then they finally remember each other, and it's really cute, but it's over so quickly and only mentioned at the very very end...
There was a lot left to be desired in those final chapters, even though it was doing so well in the beginning....All the way up until chapter 18.

The recent uploads for chapter 90 and now 91 is good, but why is a new group scanlating and uploading it when there was already a high quality uploader doing it on a weekly basis?
It's not like the previous uploader dropped off the face of the earth for a couple months without a word. It feels like unnecessary poaching, not fair play.
There's a lot happening all across the board with various members of his (ex?)classmates, and what he and the other characters discover...but there's no actual progress being made plot wise. Honestly, it's getting kind of boring and aside from the actual MC (not the guy who thinks he is, lol), everyone is ridiculously stupid that it's a little hard to bear. The good characters growth and development is slow and shallow, and KHS's is too fast— which, again, feels shallow.
The enemies were kind of interesting at one point, but now that Kang Han Soo is so OP, they lack impact and depth. Why even have an enemy appear if he's going to get rid of it and turn a battle into a useless game within two minutes? Seems pointless.
I'm still holding out that things will suddenly get interesting, so i stick around...but I'm not hoping for much, sadly.
Doing it seriously, or just to scare them, either way the author shouldn't have done that. It's harassment and actually gives the uploader a real reason to fear for their safety. How do they know the author is just lying to scare them?
Besides that, there are people on the internet who would actually take the author seriously (even /if/ she didn't actually mean it), and support her in finding out all that personal info of the uploader. Maybe even take action to "support" author and hurt the uploader.
That's f*ing terrifying...
Sure, the uploaders and all of us reading this illegally are all in the wrong (I'll agree with that no problem), but what the author is doing is bad too. Worse, in my opinion, because now they're giving someone anxiety over being physically harmed and/or stalked and harassed.
The author said she'd felt depressed and was thinking of self harm over this issue, and I believed it and felt bad and guilty enough to start reading properly on lezhin, but doesn't she realize she's possibly causing the same feelings to someone else with her actions? That's unacceptable.
A lawsuit over mangago made sense, even if I would hate it because *I enjoy free stuff* but this....This is just the worst decision. I don't even want to support the author by going to lezhin or buying it elsewhere because I just feel like she's a pretty horrible person.
Why would I support someone like this?
So I'm not reading this anywhere anymore, but I'm still here to keep up with the drama. I hope this issue is resolved soon. I don't want mangago to go away, but I hope the author gets a settlement that matches her revenue loss or something. And I hope more for the people threatened by her that they have peace of mind and don't fear what she's done.
But what's the point in Succhan, Hujin, and Dohwa going at all?? The baddies already know what they look like, and a sh*tty disguise isn't going to fool them (at least the top baddies like purple girl and water spider guy) unless they're absolute idiots. Moreover, they're more of a liability since if they get caught, those three are literally ALL THE TARGETS WATER SPIDER GUY WANTS.... It's just a bad idea imo.
Send a less valuable target who's still capable, and have our MCs as standby in case of emergency.

So, does the next arc get interesting again, and does Arjen (the male twin) actually die at some point? Or become obsolete to the story? I've seen several people mentioning it, and I'd like to know *now* bc him and the elder brother Alex are the only 2 characters I truly like right now.
Arien is nice and all, and she's a fairly good character, but I was reading first for the "twin" aspect that was unique to this story, and secondly for the plot. I'm not currently into the heibi arc all that much. I was satisfied with the first arc...
So, If it's just going to eventually focus solely on her, and they get rid of Arjen for abitrary reasons, then I'm considering dropping if the next arc isn't interesting.
It's not that it doesn't suit me. It's fine so far, but I'm wondering if it changes further down a line where I won't want to read it. For me, as a personal incentive, I wouldn't want to read it anymore if Arjen is *completely* dropped from the story, since I decided to read this primarily bc of the new "twins" aspect that I hadn't seen before. If the plot is still good, and continues in a way that makes sense, I'll still consider reading it, but I was really interested in that twins perspective...
But that's why I was asking, so I can get more info and make a final decision myself~ I could wait and read another fifty to one hundred chapters, but I'm also impatient
I don’t really think they’ll drop Arjen from the story cause *spoiler* (kinda)
I’ve seen people talking about how arien and arjen travel the world together in the end, since that’s what they wanted to do when they grow up. I’m not sure but I’m pretty sure the whole *twin* aspect of the story will remain. Definitely praying it will. I dont mind arien being the mc as long as arjen doesnt completely become a side character (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
Are we just going to forget that Chihwan has *many* other enemies for eating other vampires for hundreds of years? Maybe millennia?? These two need to live in seclusion, or learn how to use their respective new powers STAT if they wanna live without hiding for the rest of eternity, bc the moment those vengeful bastards learn of Chihwan no longer being a vamp.... It's gonna be chaos to see who can kill finally kill him.
And most likely Sooin.(╯°Д °)╯╧╧ ┗( T﹏T )┛
Hmm
Eh....I just realized the rest of my review was entirely deleted after the first word??? What the heck!? I left a full ass review, posted, and it was there in full for like an hour but now it's gone... Whatever, I'm not writing it all out again.
Just know that this was essentially mindbreak porn dragged out for 51 chapters. Good if that's what you were looking for, but don't expect any plot or for the MC to be actually intelligent. He's not completely dumb, but he doesn't learn from anything or make any good decisions for himself either even when he gets the chance.
And the final chapter is complete garbage (even for mindbreak porn).
I'm honestly just really pissed my entire review was deleted, because I gave a fair one with the ups and downs. Whatever. Jeez.
