ALisAnimeLover's manga / #fantasy(29)

Ch 37 then skipped to ch 60++ lol. Might read properly when I have time (+ when I'm in the mood) Edit: dropped. I just couldn't get into the mood reading it when the story is all over the place. I'm just keeping it at 2 stars for the kids and the lore --------- That girl is annoying smh. Thank god Yun just let her stay crippled after she threw away the medicine. Reap what you sow, bitch. Lore seems to be good though it feels all over the place. Terms and details are placed here and there while the story progresses, but they weren't even there at the start (the mc just went to a new planet, got revealed as an empty man (which is only explained at that time too), and somehow got into a contract with a devil where it wasn't even explained yet what hell has to do with the story, and then it says that there are people with magic, with no magic and with strong magic (nobles) but without full context on the weight of these roles, etc etc). There's also the family tree that's suddenly growing left and right. Lol, it feels like when you go to a family reunion then you first meet your 100th cousin 99 removed Story kinda started off with rape (on the seme's defense, he's the one on aphrodisiac (and the uke got affected) so he's not stable that time too). Though the bigger problem is that after the aphrodisiac chapter (idr if it was just ch 1 or if it was longer or what), the seme kept pestering the uke and trying to make him into his lover when the uke is obviously not into him. Unless he's a tsundere, lol. While it MAY be because of the family differences (nobleman and a non-nobleman (lol, is he even still considered a commoner?)) that he doesn't want to get involved with the seme, the uke's actions and words suggest that he's simply not interested in the seme and is straight 乁( •_• )ㄏ The kids are cute though. They're the only ones keeping me wanting to read this comics

I'd prefer it to be longer since there wasn't much time to develop the lore (like okay, there's 3 shinigami levels, but what does that mean?) and their relationship (it is what it is). And Connor was just there to tell the MC the truth; I liked Connor's design and would want more to his character. Does he really care about Caleb? (he does; but again, why and how? Lore said shinigamis don't have feelings (which in Caleb's case, I'll interpret as him getting feelings due to his corruption)) Why does he want to get promoted? What does it even mean for him? (Again, nothing was mentioned about the shinigami levels) I could ponder on and on about what could've been, but I'll get nowhere because this is a completed manga. And even if it got a sequel, it'll be a bit late for that.

Last story deserves a 5 star, but the other 3 stories are just so-so. Ch 1 and 2-3 (is it really 2 chapters in one?) is about a transferee and his classmate. Pretty chill, though a tidbit cliche and bland. I liked how their friend knows about them just through intuition, and how he just kept quiet instead of causing drama. Ch 4 is um... idk if it's the translation or if it's just really short so the story felt like it went at the speed of light. A guy attending his unrequited love's wedding meets his senpai at the wedding. Senpai offered to be his rebound back in high school, and again now after the wedding. Then all of a sudden, MC says he actually couldn't forget senpai (as if he's in love with senpai), and that's it. That's just it. Didn't really feel any emotions from the MC nor the senpai. Ch 5 is a fantasy story about a kitsune and a dying monk. A lil bittersweet, but a lil too short. Ch 6 is the best in this anthology, which isn't just because all the other 3 are not good. I can't say anything without spoiling it though.

Well, that was anticlimactic. Though I guess that's the point of the story (as the wizard promised the hero, he'll wake him up when everyone can accept him. And the only world that can accept him is one that can handle him ig) Smh at people who thinks it's racist to call him "Black". Aren't you the racist ones to associate everything with race?

Ch1-4 is the title story "Whoa, I'm naked! Ah, but I'm wearing underwear!" Lmao. Also, I can't help but read the title as Teacup Boy Toy. Help Although the story seems a little absurd (no, not just a little... Also, unintentional pun lol), it's just a classic fairytale-style of story which has its own charm. Though the bad thing about the story is that it's too short to develop the characters and the non-existent romance - it's even worse than some Disney fairytales. ... Which leads to the second lead syndrome being too strong let's be honest, the ML didn't actually do anything except express interest in the MC because he's tiny and ~out of this world~. He wasn't shown to have interest in the MC as a person, unlike the second ML who's shown to care for the MC (though it could be as a genuine friend/brotherly figure, not much romantically). I would really love to see more stories of this type. And hopefully a longer one or a better-paced one. Ch5-8 is different story. This time about a pretty guy who got confessed to by another guy. To make the confessor stop from harassing him with daily confessions, they strike a deal to have a date once and if he's still not interested, the confessor will stop. Sadly, this story lacks the magic of the first story. Not to mention that the plot is very very very overused, and the story doesn't offer more than the trope. Ch9 is a one-shot about a longtime couple who got into domestic troubles due to the seme's increasing sloppiness. Ironically the best-paced story out of the three. While cliche like the 2nd story, its charm is that it's a perfect story for a one-shot. The character of the characters (erm, what is English), their relationship concerns, the resolution to their problem are all well established.

Idk. It feels so horribly long. It's interesting though ... okay, dropped. Its premise is interesting, but it's horribly boring (for me, at least) to the point I can't bother reading it.

Somehow it feels like there's something missing that I can't put my hands on

Too short to like. Elf just keeps raping the hero and erasing his memories. Good thing the hero actually liked the elf at the end. Still fucked up though
