apopoi's manga / #Ｏ(≧∇≦)Ｏ(96)

A dragon? Sign me up! This will be nice cuz my logical ass won't be questioning how someone can be that proud, narcissistic and selfish cuz duh he a dragon This is very sweet, I didn't expect that. The smut is very tasteful, their bodies are very bulky so I needed some time to get around it. The ML crying, being clingy and acting cute..just stole my heart away. The MC is such hubby material, seriously he's so attentive, intelligent, mature and all things good. Their dynamic wasn't what I thought it was going to be haha. My first impression is the first paragraph I wrote. The Emperor's obsession with him was very interesting to read about, the way he looked at the MC send chills down my spine. It's the blush in his cheeks, his downcast eyes and his gaze that seal the deal for me. I love that he escaped from him but the people that helped him escape were punished so it's unfortunate. Knowing the Emperor, it probably didn't end with a simple punishment either. The fact that he isolated him from his friends, made him marry yet prohibit the married couple to meet again, sending his friends to other places etc. If it were another manhwa, he would be the ML and girls would be swooning after him for sure.

This is top tier. One of the best manhwas I have read and that's on periodt. It has the perfect ending. It wasn't abrupt and overstayed its welcome, it feels complete. The side stories are a joy to read. It puts a smile on my face. This has to be the same artist/writer who worked on 'Dawn of the Dragon' because the art style, the characters, the dynamic.. Uncanny. I love this trope of crybaby seme and mature uke. Give me more!! The story is very simple but executed so perfectly. Around chapter six, the story alludes to the seme being this typical controlling psychopath mastermind but instead he's a sweetheart, a babygirl, a cinnamon roll(ू•ᴗ•ू❁). Jaewoo is so kind and patient towards everything but the seme especially. He is so mature and is an adult in handling misunderstandings. He reassures the seme and actually communicates to him about stuff instead of assuming shit and clears things out when the seme misunderstands things. When he ran outside barefoot bawling his eyes out when he thought that Jaewoo cheated on him (he would never!) He tells him that it wasn't what it seemed "Let's go inside and talk". Then when he hyperventilates, he handled that very well as well. The reason for the seme's interest in Jaewoo recontextualized everything. He didn't laugh or cry as a kid, he didn't feel emotions, he was empty so when he met his complete opposite who freely expressed his emotions, he was curious. He had seen people cry before but when he saw Jaewoo cry, he felt something so he wanted to see him cry again. Then in high school, when he met him again he came on very strong so he slowed down and latched himself to him so he sticks out in his mind. He asked around and still couldn't find him but finally in the old library, they could be alone so he initiated a conversation and the uke didn't know him at all so that was the reason he followed him everywhere. They were also very close as students, we didn't see that in the uke's flashback. This is why I say that both POV's are invaluable since we get both sides. The thing they priorities, the things they remember.. In how much detail etc. I also love that Jaewoo went back to college. Love education, hopefully I'll start college next year

Wow.. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this. I like the dynamic between the main leads as well as the second leads. It's so very different yet equally interesting. Personally the main leads dynamic is my favourite because there's so much teasing going on, and the way they interact with eo is such a breath of fresh air. It's been a while since we've got an ML with personality!! I love that he has a sharp tongue, love that he trusts his instincts and love him overall. The MC gives me so much second hand embarrassment, yet I still come back for more. They are such engaging characters, truly the backbone of this manhwa. The romance is the main plot, but its sub-plots are very fascinating as well. I like that the MC's past is supposedly shrouded in mystery, the deal with White (what entity is he?) And that we have two regressors and a transmigrator. Also the ML isn't needlessly edgy or sketchy and moves with a purpose. I love how the MC just assumes stuff and just goes with it. I love that it subverted my expectations. It's so light-hearted and I love that it pokes fun at the genre it's in.. A parody of its genre. It reminds of Gintama in that sense. As someone well endowed in this genre, there's a sense of satisfaction in that I'm privy to the inside jokes made in this manhwa.

I can't believe I didn't leave a review for this because I absolutely adored this when I read it. I'm thinking of starting it again after everything that's going on right now (CUET exam). I was on a BL craze back then, reading everything my grubbly hands could take a hold on. And the cover intrigued me because hello? It's so visually appealing. I always check the featured photos first so I could get a feel for the type of story I was getting myself into and I loved it. The top was everything I looked for in this type of BL manhwa so I was thoroughly satisfied but the bottom??!! The bottom was the icing on the cake, cherry on top.. He reminded me so much of Jeonghan from SVT and I was hooked from the get go. I love me a beautiful bottom. The plot itself though it holds its own, it's not the reason I carried on reading it till Ch30.. It was the characters, the dynamic and so forth. I could tell from the get go that the bottom's revenge was futile, that his motivations were misguided, that he was childish but that was one of his charming points. His temper was also another aspect that was adorable and charming even. By this point I was expecting the top to be head over heels in love with him, not knowing which way was left or right but he kept his heads on his shoulders and ngl that deterred me a little bit. It made me realize that this was going to be a slow burn manhwa and right then and there I needed a quick fix so I dropped it to pick it up at a better time. I know people clown on the Shakespearean language that is being used but honestly I find that it elevates the reading experience. The dirty talk is quite an amusing task to read through but nevertheless I enjoyed it.

I fucking love this. This is great. I love the MC, I love the brother and I love the ML. This is so wholesome. I like that she makes do with what she has and is so normal, no trying to be cool or too curt. She's a normal average citizen of a society. No quirkiness or anything. I like the puppy ML, how he becomes talkative when he's drunk etc. I like his brother too, the complete opposite of him.. Organised, responsible, very put together.. I like how everyone adores the MC. Also the way this author writes the female characters..Chef's kiss mwah.. The CEO is a woman.. The team leader is a woman(I thought she was a man at first)..and no underlying message that just because a woman has a job, she's a bad person/sister/wife and has bad personality etc.. Nice female representation..

The eyebrows are eyebrowing. The MC is a self made CEO.. Albeit to a small company. She is very normal. She is hung up on her ex of five years since she overheard him on a call with someone talking about her, that he was never attracted to her, he would marry her since it was what she wanted, he would spend his whole life trying to be repay her for the debt he owes her. What is the debt? We don't know and tbh I'm not curious. She broke up with him in a restaurant when he proposed to her (not sure).. She dumped him wearing a perfect haughty expression.. The ML is also there. It's obvious. Maybe he got the inspiration to break up from his celebrity girlfriend because of that? The ML is a chef with heavy eyebags and dark circles for days.. Like a Mappa animator.. He is at the beck and call of his ex. She is such a red flag honestly and it seems she doesn't love him. She just uses him. The first we see them together is when he runs off after getting a call.. Then the MC runs after him to give him his wallet that he dropped. She comes across them.. Him trash talking her.. What a tsundere.. Telling her he just felt pity for her yada yada.. The MC of course is offended by this since it's the exact same thing with her situation.. She throws the wallet at his head.. Blah blah.. She is also a huge fan of his ex.. She doesn't know this of course. We see MC's ex laughing with a girl.. He is quite the looker as well.. That makes me mad

Why am I eating this shit up? I'm sooo enjoying this.. I don't even recognize myself. What is life? I am so curious how the prince became so obsessed with her.. I'm sure we'll find out but man I'm so excited! Of course she makes a spectacle of herself everytime she's with her family because of their bullshit. He knows the ins and outs of their household.. And I love the dead eyes/empty yet strangely alluring eyes he has everytime he looks at Courtney. He seems to be testing her.. He's so dom in the way he's so sub.. I love it! This is mad! I have seen my fair share of kinks but this tops everything! It may have awakened something in me. PS I hate her family.. Her dumb father, her mother who thinks money grows on trees and is totally oblivious to their financial issues, her elder brother who keeps drowning them in debt, even selling her in the process, her crybaby sister in law who gives Karen from 'Mean Girls' a run for her money. Like what the fuck!! I love iove love her nephew tho.. He's all that's good in the world..

It's smut first of all. The art style is really unique and I don't hate it. It's growing on me ngl. At first I felt iffy about the ML's face but then he looked different as time went on so it's all good. I also really like the MC, she's feminine, stylish, isn't too much of a pushover and the way she prioritise herself above all else is so refreshing. Their dynamic is interesting.. I mean right off the bat it was clear that Sijin liked her, but we never knew to what extent. Tbh I expected his past to be dark and explain his hesitance to be in a relationship but it turned out to be more simple than I thought. It was hilarious really. I also like the way he dealt with Nayul's delusional ex. The way he took her soju glasses and gulped it all down, then gave it to the drunk Nayul and she ends up drinking the air. That single handedly sold me on this manhwa. I properly read till Chapter 30 but I skipped to Ch 47 to Ch 55. I like that they're solid now.

I can already tell that this is going to be a frustrating read. I skipped upto chapter 40 onwards but I still love it. Ain't going back to the previous ones tho.. I already get the story. It took a while for our MC to figure out that Reez was the author, didn't it? I guess I understand but then there are so many clues and moments as well. Even Killian figured it out before her. I love Killian btw... And I love how he is no longer attached to his stupid father.. Even his mother standing by while all this bullshit was taking place. His complex towards that psychopath of a brother was sad to see. He is one obsessed motherfucker ain't he? Like he doesn't care about his family one bit... The only thing he cares about is Reez.

Awww... This got me in my feels... I felt very bad for the ML, he's so cute, so patient, so enduring, so hopeful, so tender, so gentle, so willing to do anything for the FL that he makes me tear up. I almost lost my logic there for a second and had to remind myself what the princess' circumstance was like and look from her perspective. She always liked him, from the beginning... That's why it hurts. She was left out in the dark. She's truly innocent in all this. I know but when she admitted that she forgot him when she went back home and seeing her wear his heart so proudly like that just hurts. But she makes up for it. She clears up misunderstandings and is truly making effort. I love her for this. Should I read the novel? The emperor and the FL's dad made me mad ngl but I understand... Man I love the ML so much.
