So glad im not the only one who is very peeved about this damn dog. It’s there solely to artificially push the sexual plotline, which is absolutely unnecessary since the ailment espers get from running instances in this story already does just that.
I really hope this isn’t going to continue to be used, as it’s surely going to lead to this manhwa’s downfall
Every character was written exceptionally well, and frustrating within good reason. Raymond especially, as I could never bring myself to totally hate him. The guy was fueled by the sole purpose of achieving a goal for the past 20 years, so it makes perfect sense that when his love for Ian and that said goal conflicted, there came the major dilemma of having to sacrifice either that said goal, or Ian. It was essentially Raymond needing to set aside his life-long purpose and essentially reason to live for a gamble at new beginnings. This story conveys it perfectly and realistically. If I were in his position, I’d probably feel the exact same way, as frustrating as it was to see this from an omniscient lens.
Ian is also another character that, despite me typically disliking character of his personality, I thoroughly enjoyed. The clinginess to Raymond, his trauma response, him being his own mental captor at times when it came to Raymond, his will despite everything. It is probably one of the most realistically conveyed portrayals of the lingering affects of a SA + Abuse victim and PTSD that I’ve seen in a BL webtoon.
Kaya and Nicolas are characters who I also have come to enjoy greatly, and easily took the spot as my favorites.
I ABSOLUTELY ADORED THIS STORY, But I feel the ending was a tad bit anticlimactic and open
Not that an open ending is a bad thing, not at all, but considering how the past 100 chapters were slowly and intricately building up to this point, I expected more resolution and answers than what was given.
i almost skipped out on reading it due to the somewhat low star rating. Turns out it’s low due to people not reading the T/N.
i’m glad I clicked on it, insta bookmark. Praying this becomes a series just as 19 days did, or if not, a constantly uploading 4koma.
The violent depiction of rape and how it was just… glossed over in this really, really threw me off? Idk why people are saying elsewise.
Writing such things into your story doesn’t automatically make it a bad story, but instead how it’s handled and how the author chooses to navigate their characters.
With how graphic it was here, you’d expect more from the MC and actual insight on his psych and mental state, and most importantly, NOT a H.E (happy ending)… but no. It was a stark contrast from how seemingly deep the writing and substance went into the actual mafioso.
I’m ignoring anyone who goes “b-but Caeser was already riddled with red flags!1!1!!!” since that is not the point and does not matter, as the action itself wasn’t what caused this story to go downhill, but how this author chose to handle the ‘aftermath’ (if you can even call it that, as said before, it was glossed over.)
Ikrrr...i was so pissed at tht time but seeing how majority readers have moved on... I'll let go too, this type of story at the end makes u feel unsatisfied and empty
Right? The fact that he shot, kidnapped, and raped him was so quickly dismissed, it really irritated me because Lee Won was obviously bothered by it (see chapter 56, Lee Won's nightmare). Honestly, I hoped that he would talk with Caesar about it, but no, instead, they had to play a survival game , which I don't think did anything to help him resolve that nightmare.
I totally agree it threw me off too, it's just not ok that's why I gave it a low rating. You need to develop a story well if you're gonna include that kind of content and even so I don't know if it deserves a happy ending after that.
I feel conflicted about this part as well
Tsar is at fault and indeed I too think that it happened because of his attitude and personality type wrote by author
But I did hope that they will have a healthier relationship somehow by talking about what happened I mean lee got shot and raped and he forgave tsar but I kinda feel sad ,it was not explained in more detail about how lee won processed what happened you know ... If it was shown at least we will have known a bit of why he forgave tsar that easily
There’s a fine line between patching up plotholes and tying loose ends vs just straight up dragging out the story; and this manhua has managed to cross long beyond that line. This could’ve ended HUNDREDS of chapters ago
If they really felt it necessary to make an… entire spin off, season, whatever for WoWo (that’s twice or even thrice as long as the original story?!), they could’ve made it an entire different series and actually put more… thought into the plot because this has long become ridiculous.
It’s like reading a non beta-read word-count minimum essay of word vomit that was conjured hours before the deadline.
exactly, should’ve just ended with the main couple having kids
As much as I love this story, yes should have been ended long ago.
And the redhead coupled with douding is so forced and out of nowhere..he deserves so much better tbh
The author went BOTW cooking pot on this manhua— by that I mean throwing the most random yet common danmei troupes inside this comic— and created a damn feast. They cooked and devoured with no crumbs left behind.
My expectations of BL have been very, very low and holy fuck … that 180 Andrew did in personality after the misunderstanding cleared, and his legitimate reasoning for being an ass at the beginning was so unexpected, but so very welcomed. I can’t believe I’m this pumped at an author doing the bare minimum of actually writing out multiple, logical faucets for their character…
If you’re worried about him being a copy and paste of those arrogant ML’s in other BL, please don’t worry. If you’re able to slug past the first 10 chapters it gets so so much better.
