Where the Dragon's Rain Falls

Complete | Summer | 2000 released

P: According to legend, a nation in which a dragon appears is destined for prosperity. Finally a new dragon is born in the desert-covered empire Rahan, but...as a fragile young boy! Until the boy comes of age, the crown prince orders him hidden away in the depths of the palace. But one night, Suu, a lowly palace servant hoping to run away with his dear Nadan, stumbles upon an unexpected mystery… And so begins their tale of love, obsession... and desire. O: Looks nice. The art is satisfying. I'm interested in Sahara, and how he can shapeshift but be dumb at times. From reading some comments, it seems like Suu may be the bastard child of the royal bloodline of another country, which is why Sahara can turn adult after having Suu's blood.. All the characters are manipulative/sneaky. I am not totally on board with Jin or Sahara. Jin is manipulative af. I just wish happiness for Nadan and Suu, like wtf, why do they have to get all caught up in this shit! Oof I'd have to say I'm on team Sahara rn. Jin is such an ASS. C72 - ahhh.. the bittersweet romance btwn Suu and Nadan :( Suu is too much of a realist and didn't consider Nadan's feelings. I love how Suu is also scheming xD he is a force to be reckoned with. C98 - WOW I feel terrible for Sahara :/ C106 - WTF Nadan is dead?! CMON MAN C130 - omg... it seems like Saharah is manipulating people, and are thus acting fake o-o C180 - brooo how is this the end?? This manhwa was so confusing lol, maybe I'll have to reread this some time again

Complete | Haji | 2016 released

P: When I woke up, I was in the land of the dead...Calen, who remembers nothing except that he was a soldier when he was alive, begins a life with Makoto, the person in charge of this land called "limbo". Calen is given the duty of being a shinigami by God to make up for his sins. Supported and cared for by Makoto, Calen's love for him grows. But once he learns that Makoto is a doll made from dirt that will one day die and return to the land...This is a story of love through redemption, full of sadness and caring, told by amazing characters and a dramatic world view. O: So many feels. This is so cute and touching. Beautiful! I wish we could learn more of Calen's past but oh well. OMG those nagamimi (bunnies) are so adorable! So glad they ended up together! Rereading. C7 - stop... this is killing me :( I agree with my previous comment, this was a nice read, but it felt slightly lacking since it was very short and there is still quite a lot that has yet to be explored fully. 5-->4

The couple traveled to a scenic spot to spend their first hot night together, but at that place, they were toyed with by a strange, yet erotic tentacle beast… O: Literally no plot, but damn, their bodies are so stunning. This is hot and interesting.

Yunho runs out from shock and bumps into a mysterious man, Hanwool who happens to be a mythical tiger. When they run into each other, Hanwool senses a sweet scent coming from Yunho, and although Hanwoo has never been interested in humans he finds himself intrigued by Yunho. O: Very intriguing, Hanwoo is drop dead gorgeous, and Yunho looks so cool when he's singing. The little ball of light (ghost/spirit) is so cute. So sad how this isn't yaoi. Jooho, Yunho's ex seems like a nice guy... I mean I don't ship them, but he deserves a good person. Ah yeah... C38, even though they broke up, they're still on good terms. He would rather see him happy than have him... Awww C25 explains the title, mythical tiger x butterfly (Yun) TT so precious... ahh I just cried for a butterfly (C26). The side stories are spicy >///<

The beginning after the end

Ongoing | Turtleme,Fuyuki23 | 2000 released

P: King Grey has unrivaled strength, wealth, and prestige in a world governed by martial ability. However, solitude lingers closely behind those with great power. Beneath the glamorous exterior of a powerful king lurks the shell of man, devoid of purpose and will. Reincarnated into a new world filled with magic and monsters, the king has a second chance to relive his life. Correcting the mistakes of his past will not be his only challenge, however. Underneath the peace and prosperity of the new world is an undercurrent threatening to destroy everything he has worked for, questioning his role and reason for being born again. O: This is AMAZING!!! Really interesting. The art is so nice to look at and the story is awesome. So sad when Sylvia disappeared, she was such an amazing dragon. :( Also happy/sad when Art saw his dad and mum again through that special magic. Lol Sylvie and Tess are so adorable! Can't help but like Virion too. Everyone is awesome! Nice colour schemes. Ew Lucas is utter trash. C101 - Oml that kiss btwn Tess and Art is so cringe... I literally died inside. C119 - omg... no way wtf... TT I didn't really pay attention to her in the story but holy sht... C136 - yo wtf... this is so horrible... f/163 dropped because this got confusing and boring, seeing Arthur get agitated over the fake Tessa just sealed the deal for me. 5-->3

The Abandoned Empress

Complete | Ina, yuna | 2000 released

P: As proud daughter of House Monique, Aristia was raised to become the next empress of the Castina Empire. But with the appearance of a mysterious new girl, everything has fallen apart: the Emperor has turned his back, and Aristia’s miserable life as a lower queen is cut short by death. However a second chance to change her fate sees her reborn to 7 years earlier! “Is this a dream or reality? Will my destiny repeat?” O: This is epic. The art is so cute. I can't help but love almost everyone! Except the Ruve (the blue-haired guy). Despite his handsome appearance, he is so unappreciative, disgusting and rude. What did Tia to do deserve his hate?! After she was reincarnated, I feel that he hated her because he was constantly compared to her. Even though Jieun looks so innocent, I feel that she has a darker side. She seemed nice at start, but she's low-key jealous af. And she doesn't do her duty as an empress properly. In chapter 20 near the end when Ruve thinks "What did I ever do to her", when Tia is trembling whilst drinking tea with him, it makes me laugh... yikes and chapter 54? So sad how Tia was traumatised and ended up losing herself. Ik it's not quite this Ruve's fault, but ouch. You did a shit ton of crap later in another worldline... This point was addressed later, which is good. I don't really want Ruve to end up with Tia, but it probably will happen. Allendis (green-haired guy) is such a sweetheart. Aww so cute when he ended up inventing white day. I feel like he's also hiding something too. I mean come on, he can't be kind all the time right? Yep, he seems dodgy/sneaky... I don't know how she doesn't see him for what he truly is. C100 he was revealed to have been obsessed w/ Tia b/c they were kinda similar. Lovely colour schemes. I totally ship Carsein and Tia, Sein is such an honest guy, it's hard to hate him. Jk he can be annoying, but I like direct he is. In front of Sein, Tia is more open and holds no fake appearances. I really love the art! So satisfying to see everyone's awesome outfits. Her dad is so caring ;-; he is such an awesome guy who understands and cherishes his daughter. I really like Tia, she's such a strong female lead. I really really like this manhwa as the characters aren't cardboard. They feel realistic. Tia is relatable, and so cute! Lol long gush. Ok I feel kinda sympathetic towards Jieun after C143... I can kinda see why Tia and Ruve get together later, but damn I still wish Tia ended up with Carsein instead ;-; I just don't see why we got such deep insight into Allendis and Carsein, only for her to end up with the same guy Ruve (albeit he's a changed man). ;-; Carsein.... TT

May I Ask For One Final Thing?

Ongoing | Nana otori,Hoonokisora | 2000 released

P: The engagement between Scarlet, a noblewoman from a ducal family and the Second Prince Kyle was suddenly annulled during the ball. She had been falsely accused of harassing a girl called Terenezza, daughter to a baron, whom the Prince doted on heavily. Condemned by everyone around her, forced to burden all manner of crimes, she finally decided enough was enough. “Before I leave here, may I ask for one final thing?” As the crowd threw their boos and jeers, and that good looking guy flung his insults?? Her palm spun like a drill and the ballroom floor was stained with blood. O: Not cliche. Very intriguing. I don't particularly like any of the guys yet. I like how badass Scarlet is. Ha! Serves them right This is gold. Can't believe Nanaka was a trap... so unexpected. 5-->4

La Dolce Vita di Adelaide

Complete | Chae habin,Suho, kim bomi | 2000 released

P: Was I reborn? In my previous life I was a designer who had just graduated but one day I had an accident. Adelaide, that's my new name. My new life feels very boring, but then I heard news that there is a girl who can move between dimensions so I decided to go to the capital to meet her. Is there something waiting for me in the capital? O: This is so good. So many snakes though. Eww that maid and Susan are truly a great match, they're so dumb. Lmao Susan expects the title of Saint but doesn't want to do the duties linked to it? B*tch. The villains here are so bad... but this is entertaining nonetheless. I don't really like Adele after C60, she used to be smart but not anymore... how can she not tell that the duke truly loves her?? Is she just playing with Yulia or what?? Ah she's just testing the duke, to make him realise his feelings. Still it makes me uncomfortable - she's just manipulating him...

Three Months to Live

Complete | Suizi | 2000 released

P: What?! I only have three months to live?! What the hell is that?! The officer from hell will work as my body guard?! Oh, my! This hell is so different! Could you please send another guy here?!! O: Fan (Black Guard) is so hot especially in his true form. Lol this is hilarious. So sad how Guan Yu doesn't remember his kiss though. It's a bit annoying how dense Guan Yu is - he believes the best in everyone, but it's hard to hate him.

This Girl is a Little Wild

Ongoing | kidari studio,coyo | 2000 released

P: KyoZaNa✿: In a battle with the Demon King, the captain of the Holy Knights, Roel got her soul trapped within body of a fragile girl, Sila whom’s also in fatal danger. So she tries to meet a bishop who can see souls to prove her identity by agreeing to be spy for the captain of the Special Squad, Jullius. They two blunt captains even easily engage to work together..!! O: This is interesting how she remains in the same world after swapping souls. Such nice art. I'm curious if and when others will discover that she was Roel. Did anyone know that she, as Roel, was a lady not a man? Sila and Jullius are so cute together. Jullius is such a cute cinnamon roll :3 I was a bit confused why he readily accepted Sila as a fiancee, but turns out he is from an unknown background, which is why people are reluctant to marry him. The Epheria family are so disgusting. Nooo the second season has been cancelled TT
