REVIEW:
(with some spoilers…)
(Only read the first two paragraph out of the four paragraphs for no spoilers)

I have google translated and read all updated 158 chapters so far of Idol is a God (three seasons) in one sitting and I really REALLY love the story!! I’m more of a korean novel/manhwa girl type of reader as I understand the Korean language more/etc so I typically don’t read chinese manhua, but even though this was a chinese manhua, I found myself wanting to keep reading it and in the end really loving/enjoying the story as it didn’t feel too cheesy as others. Characters didn’t feel like they were one dimensional and the story is a fun read with some drama/problems for each character and group to face along the way together. Relationships between characters (like Haochen and Shiyu) really just tug at your heartstrings making you at times say, "Just get together already!!!!!” or “You’re boyfriend is here again hehe” even if it isn’t a BL LMAO. Some characters will make you laugh at times with how you can relate to them, make you angry at times with their decisions, make your heart ache by seeing them struggle, and more.

Now like I said, this isn’t a BL/YAOI/SHOUNEN AI manhua or whatever related genre but WHEN I TELL YOU THE BL FEELING IS STRONG AHHHH!!! Especially to all my fellow Shiyu and Haochen shippers like me ;D (and Zhongyun + Donjun peeps). Even though the story isn’t BL, in my heart, it is- (delulu is the solulu ok) it explores on the idol/trainee journey + hardships, friendships, feelings of not being the best at times, personal conflicts, pressure from expectations, and I guess the dark side of being a celebrity… yeah :D

Just letting y’all know, Idol is a God has three seasons. The first two seasons are together in one manhua which is this one. These two seasons mainly follow Shiyu…(and his lovely boyfriend Haochen… my OTP… if you can’t tell…), along with the relationship between SWEN members, other idols/group, the company/gods while the third season is its own separate published manhua. It seems to be called, “C位成神3” IDOL IS A GOD 3… yeah LOL (based on my own findings and searching). Season 3 of course still has the same characters and stuff, but with new additional characters. It takes place 3 years later focusing on a newly created survival show and focuses more on the new characters Xuan Dixing and Ren Ziwei (. . . pairing it seems HAHAHA). Season three is still ongoing and only has 26 chapters so far hinggggg as I’m writing this.

To all the Shiyu and Haochen shippers like me. . . TURN BACK WHILE YOU CAN!! STOP READING BEFORE IT GETS TO LATE FROM THE SADNESS AUGHHH *ugly cries* thank you for reading the manhua till now, farewell buddy. . . but if you continue to read instead of heeding- I pray for you for the upcoming sadness (I guess bittersweet ending) later very near at the end of season two. Season three still didn’t help/cure my aching heart so far HAHAHA but it’s still on-going soooooo I still have some hope for my little rain Shiyu and little star Haochen LOL

THIS MANHUA IS SO GOOD!!!! Read all the chapters with google translation that are out currently and with season three currently releasing, I’m so excited reading the upcoming plot and new characters so far… and especially, ESPECIALLY looking forward to the relationship with my two babies!! Might post spoilers later for the whole series so far or not- have about like… 1/4 of the story written down right now

My lovely Shiyu and Haochen <3 I will forever support you two ok?!!! HAHAHAHA- even if this is not a BL LOL
