Well, this is a hard manhwa to rate. Although the art is breathtaking (I very much enjoy the drawings and the coloring design, every new page is a masterpiece), I don’t particularly enjoy manhwa plots where a character is locked somewhere and has to do whatever the seme says to get out and it eventually gets used to being tied. And the aggressiveness is what I enjoy the least, usually the seme is powerful and agressive and the uke is poor (what I mean is that they are never at the equal level of power, they are almost always below) and submissive. That’s why it isn’t a five star rate. For me, what kept me going was the art, honestly. Not the plot, nor the character’s personality.
The plot is frustrating sometimes, mostly because it is a weak plot with a slow development (I felt like the story lost itself halfway through, it’s more like a pretext just to lock the uke guy and make him a toy for the seme to use as he pleases. And it’s ok, if you’re into it.), sometimes the art isn’t enough to keep me entertained and I just have to skip some chapters to see what happens next. It’s slow, and sometimes I just feel bad because the story could be finished in 10 chapters if the publisher used the whole space on screen lol.
Aside of all, it is a good read, it’s good to be in the same page as the new readers, it’s just that the style is not for me.
Oh, and I don’t know if it’s to spare time or something, but the characters look the same. If it wasn’t colored I think it would be near impossible to tell the difference between some of the characters. Anyways, just and observation lol.
