I prepared to leave a review asap but then the sudden jump from chapter 5 to 6 happened and now I'm confused if someone forgot to upload a chapter or multiple or if it's actually THAT much of a writing fault to have such a large, randomly placed and glossed over skip.
The story is lovely, sweet innocent romance on each persons part, but that time skip with the way to random and quick plot solution threw me off so far you'll need to send my mail to Jupiter.
I know full well we have romances (hetero and BL alike) with a literally crazy or borderline crazy obsessive love interest (emperor, king, northern duke, etc.) and an oblivious, kind gentle, ditzy and so on MC he's persuing and said MC happily accepts or at leats isn't opposed to it.
Anyone remember any titles?
I know we have comics out there with this dynamic and someone is looking for an example of the crazy obsessed ML actually being appealing, not off putting.
So I'm hoping anyone can help, because I can't remember any titles (and I didn't tag them in my bookmarks to find them T~T).
Thanks in advance!
i'm not sure about the specific title you're looking for but i do have a list of stories that are in set in monarchy: https://www.mangago.zone/home/mangalist/2702007
maybe you'll find the title there.
Anyone know if there is a BL that revolves around the korean military or similar settings?
Not looking for war or action (or something like a Zombie apocalypse), I'm just wondering if there even IS a comic that has the protagonists meet during military service.
We always see them meet in college and then someone goes to military service for 2 years, but I have not yet seen a story that actually utilizes that as the 'meeting him' part of the story.
Missed opportunity, as I had just realized, hence my question.
this one ^^

I'll be honest this is very basic and bland, I just can't get into it or enjoy it. :(
The MC is so shallow and basically just a typical 2001 ditzy highschool girl in the body of a 24 year old man, it's just obnoxious.
The emperor isn't in love, he's factually mentally ill and the plot treats it as if that's how obsessive love/love at first sight (since childhood) is. Which it is NOT, in case anyone isn't aware for some reason.
The art is inconsistent and each face is just copy pasta with some different sauce added, anatomy is also wonky and no standard can be found for shapes and sizes. The art looks like it was made with stiff 3d models just re-drawn if I'm being honest. Not always but VERY heavily so at many times.
To boot, the overall detail is bland, tacky if there IS stuff like jewelery and it all just feels like stock image type of designing, just to slap clothes onto them because they can't be naked.
The plot itself is very predictable and not as interesting as I first hoped. While it DOES work as a comedy, the art portrayal of said comedy is too little and too bland as well. It would need much more effort on that front to be an actual comedy and work as such a piece, tho it is a good casual page flipper if you are VERY bored. But even then I care little for the 'politics' and the romance is just not existent. The romance in this story is simply: there is romance because the author says so/demands it at the moment.
The concept of marriage laws to allow their relationship IS something new and interesting, but everything else is just not good enough to make me read more.
It's not quite well written and not well designed when it comes to portrayal of comedy, so it's below mid-levels of ranking for me.
Maybe the novel is better but the comic I would honestly not ever recommend, it's just too low-mid levels on all fronts and nothing special or interesting compared to even dusty old BL stories with REALLY predictable and cliche plots (which is sad tbh).
I think younger/less experienced people who don't know much about good writing can have a total blast with this, but to seasoned readers I think this is to bland, too basic and too boring. Wouldn't recommend but check it out to see if you don't mind it as much. If you don't mind something simple and basic to flip pages when bored, you might still like it nonetheless.
If it's not your cup of tea time for you to dip then
I did. XD
If I write it's not my thing, I leave my review and go rummage through other stuff on my lists. The only time I stay is when my review is mixed or positive, of course. ^^
