I'm sorry but this shit is pure comedy gold how is it taking itself so seriously from begining to end that is just so funny to me
I will preface by saying that the prior artist can rot. It's good they got replave and I am purely going to talk abt the art style seperated from the artist.
I think the reason a lot of people heavily dislike the art style is because it emphasizes much more on trying to look aesthetically pleasing just like almost every other BL. And there is nothing wrong with this type of style, it functions, it looks fine but what it misses is it's own identity, it's own style. And this is where the prior art style came in because it was oozing with it's own style and did something more unique than a lot of other BL manhwas. (Which isn't to say there isn't a good amount of BL manhwa with an unique style but in comparision to the more aesthetic ones they r rlly in the minority)
Emotions, movements, etc. were composited in a very different and more interesting way than you'd see in a usual more "aesthetic" BL.
While I don't hate this new art style, I think it's weaker in terms in illustrating and setting apart the story, in comparision to the old one.
I think the new art doesn't deserve hate but I get why some people are frustrated over this change.
I am curious about all of your opinions though :3
i totally agree with how the new art style completely changed to be the same style as any other manhwa bl because i loved the old one so much that i felt like it added more to the story other than the amazing plot, u could say i was jumpscared… it felt like they wanted to be more appealing to the bl commjnity and that resulted in losing their own artistic identity
I don't think it's that deep, the new artist (or team) just doesn't have enough experience yet to form a strong artistic sense of style or make vocational judgement. That's something that takes decades to master. They're inexperienced but still putting in the effort to remain proportionally consistent, and that's really all we can ask for right now.
But definitely, in a few years, I imagine they'll get better at their craft if they keep at it, since the fundamentals seem to be there.
Basically I'm just saying they're still a new to intermediate artist compared to the last one.
That is deffo the case too (hell I am an artist with a very inconsistent artstyle so ik the struggle) but even then, it still looks like your usual BL manhwa that doesn't stand out from the crowd. If it had looked like this from the begining I think less people would be frustrated about it than the kinda glaring art style change that happened instead because it just made so many people realize the way the art style enhanced the story.
I agree. I feel like for this new art style, the characters feel very stiff, thus making their relationship seem stiff, plain, almost predictable and boring. The whole scenes were supposed to be super intense with lots of emotion, but it wasn't there because of the new art I feel.
I love the story though. I read from when it last ended to the end of the extras of the novel and it was so good and angsty. So the art definitely missed the mark. But it's okay, I'm glad we got it at least!
This geniunly reads like an edgelord revenge fantasy shounen manga but make it BL and honestly? The 14 yo within me digs it. It's not good at all but it's quite enjoyable to say the least
Season 1 was absolute peak 10/10
Season 2 was still quite good imo, it expanded on the world and had a strong story (not as strong as s1 but it still invested me)
Season 3... Bro they should have just focused on Epsilon, it just felt like a bundle of side stories mushed together while in the midst of trying to tell a more important narrative. And imma be honest I did not care about any of the side story stuff that much. It feels like wasted potential to not have it revolve solely around Epsilon + her dads and how the kingdom slowly begins to change. Also the magic disappearing thing vould have been handled way better or shouldn't have been a thing to begin with but I digress.
Anyways, it's s3 isn't awful but in vomparision to s2 & 3 it's a let-down.
real the previous seasons were peak especially when Shin plotted against the old King to make Wolfgang the new King. After that the author just went down a more comedic route imo.
Listen I want the villain couple to get their ass team rocket blasted into prison but I'd also most deffo want an entire sequel manhwa where they break out and cause chaos away from the main couple (please let them be happy omg I love them so fucking much if anything happens to them shfunajs)
Team rocket blasted snorted so hard I was watching pokemon with my younger siblings earlier
I'm curious on how the one manga website that tends to be more critical of shi like this has this rated so highly lol
It's because when it was just posted ppl were convinced it was just wholesome admiration and ignored all the sighs including the name and authors track record. That's how it got a great rating. You should have seen how delusional ppl were lmao
Damn bunch of people seem to be delusional abt it even now
Honestly! Ppl actually like this and enjoy these cuties journey, it's just that you don't see all the ppl who like it here in the comment section.
This needs way more than 6 chapters. It is a really intriguing story but sadly it gets limited by the little amount of time it can build itself up, thus not being able to be fleshed out more which this typa story deffo needs
Also not a lot of people are talking about how mc is also just an absolutely awful person like the guy didn't seem to have a problem with getting a father killed (who yes is horrible too but mc didn't even know nor care abt that) and slapping that father's child in the face right afterwards, the guy has probably done some actual horrible shit. And he doesn't seem to have changed or even want to change into a better person either. I fw his characterizarion such a shame it's kinda wasted here
But yeah I read it as a what comes around goes around story where both are absolutely awful people.
Some of you all see a character inconvenience the main character/couple and straight up hating them to the point of wanting them dead not even considering any complexity the story might have given them
This is both about blondie, who yes does do a ton of stupid crap but considering his circumstances and from a writing perspective it make sense and abt the villain couple which like have so much potential for their own spin off story I am not even joking. I enjoyed their characters tremendously I cannot believe so many people here want them dead lol. I realize they are trying to kill mc but these bitches act like cartoon villains with more braincells, they are way too fun to just die plz
It's fine to dislike a character, just kinda find it sad some here either don't realize why they act the way they do or try to get invested in any way in them because they aren't the main characters which kinda sucks but oh well ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I totally agree with what youre saying here, i couldnt have said it better. Some ppl just dont understand or dont want to understand the reasoning behind the side characters actions and how it adds to the story and makes it better
Dude never had a proper parental figure in his life and was abuse throughtout his early childhood by the person who was supposed to protect and care for him by being THE PARENT. It's not suprising Seolho acts immature and erratic at times.
Ikr? it's like they didn't bother to get in into the story much. Like we get it, he's done a lot of stupid shit, but it's like they don't even bother trying to understand his circumstances and just turns a blind eye into his story. I'm sorry but their the kind of people that would blame someone solely because of one mistake instead of looking into more of the story.
I'm mixed on how I feel about this story because on one hand it has a very interesting and good potrayal of an avoidant attachment style (and also probably autistic lol) person and them slowly starting to be able to have a more secure attachment style, I'd love to read more stories exploring things like that
On the other hand, GOD IT IS GENIUNLY PAINFUL TO READ. Like reading the last 15 or so chapters just made me feel physical pain because these characters cannot clear cut communicate if their life depended on it. Which listen in this case it's kinda more realistic but godsdamn I was suffering hard <3
i wanted to like the comment, not to unlike
HONESTLYYY I actually at one point was out loud getting mad at them the miscommunication pissed me off to no end and then I realized it’s probably what I do as well and it made it very realistic but the suffering was very much there especially during the break up era
Listen I am whatever abt smut scenes but I want to see Jigu whimper
That man is the most submissive top I have ever laid my eyes upon, Yeonwoo could be sliding up and down his dick and not be the one moaning like a girl in this situation istg
