apopoi's manga / #Drama(189)

I like the MC. She's reasonable and has a personality as well. The ML although not having much depth to him outside the stereotypical 'prince who had a horrible childhood' trope is pleasant to read as well. The deal with the grandson of the bookstore, the magical book and the og fl is fascinating to say the least. The Crown Prince's aide/cousin is such an inflexible character that it makes me laugh. He is oddly cute in a way. The third prince is a young boy, the second prince is dumb as hell, the first prince is a slimy motherfucker. There's not much option besides the ml. It's very intriguing that the ML doesn't trust his aide.. I would imagine he's the only one he trusts currently but that isn't the case. The comparison made the MC of the church being akin to a cult rings true to me.

This is super cute. Soo much second hand embarrassment but that's part of the charm, it's like watching Mark Lee..it's all part of what makes it so lovable. I love that it's in his POV, he's so complex.. I thought it would be the typical yandere trope but this actually has a lot of depth. I'm not that fond of Olive's brother and Carlos but that's mainly because I'm attached to the ML now. I like Olive's friend, the Black Dog, she chose her loyalty over her personal feelings. I like her. She also seemed to genuinely care for the ML in the past timeline as well, telling the conservative fool that the head butler was someone the ML was fond of and if he knew his condition, he could've been an ally. She's so amazing. Her personality, her character design.. I love all of it. I like the beastmen children and Menas(?) as well. It's such a shame that the ML cut his hair, him with his long hair was chef's kiss.. Olive's crush on the 2nd prince was amusing but I like her dynamic with ML much moree.. The way they bicker.. And how the ML talks back to her as well, instead of accepting everything and smiling like the 2nd prince would do. That's why most age gap ick me the fuck out. Also I was so surprised that the ML actually had a personality.. I thought he would just be pining for her and do everything she likes, accepting everything.. I mean he would but the way they bicker and all, when she tutored him as well.. He's almost immune to her now that it's funny.

Okayy.. I dropped this. Maybe I should see this through because people are putting this in the same tier as TCF and ORV. The Big Three of Manhwa?? Up until where I read, this definitely was not on par with the two. Hmmm Update (26/8/24) : I like it so far. It's not up to par in my opinion with TCF and ORV but it's very decent. I didn't even know that people shipped Hyunjae with Soojin.. It's saur funny that I never side eyed them. Maybe if I reread it, I can catch some moments here and there but so far nada. The lil bro is a bit much but I understand his sentiment, the whole big bro act is kind of pissing me the fuck off so I'm on his side. That sequence of their childhood was my fav... It recontextualizes everything and adds so much layers to the story.. Mwahh chef's kiss

The translation is horrid. I hate hate hate the lines.. It's sooo cringey!! What the heck! This is just tropes on top of tropes.. "I want to make you kneel".. The problem I'm having with this is it feels chopped.. There's no continuity to the story.. It feels like one liners after the next and jumping through scenes to get to the next.. Where's the story.. It feels so disjointed. The humour isn't hitting either.

It's aight. The translation is bad and the characters aren't memorable. The storyline is plain. The aunt actually liking her nephew was a surprise but everything else is just eh. The MC having a white healing ability and using it by praying whenever she serves coffee.. I like how they personalised it but that's where my compliments end.

Cute. I like them both. It's a bit childish for me since they are in high school..I got out of that phase a while ago so this isn't my forte. I do like the innocent and warm feelings of high school first love but I can't handle teenage romance no more. I do like their first meeting tho, her memories and his are different.. In hers, we see him crying and smiling saying 'You look like a fairy' and in his, we see him crying over a broken music box (the only memory of his mom) and her fixing it for him and promising she'd fix it for him the next time they meet if it gets broken again. I like the drama about the ML's older brother as well and him hitting him then telling the maid to fix him up.

This is so intriguing. I love it, I love the MC and I love the ML. I also love his friends and how the MC unintentionally lit a spark amongst the awakened who thought their talents to be useless. I also like the way the MC utilises his knowledge of the first timeline and efficiently manages things and leaves nothing to chance. Someone in the comment section also pointed out that the MC is an unreliable narrator so I'm hella excited for that, and what it entails. I Their chemistry is top tier, I live for their dynamic.. I wonder why he killed him in the first timeline. So far the characters are top notch. The crown prince annoys the living shit out of me but other than that.. All good

I like this. I love how messy it gets, sure it seems unnecessary but I looove the drama here. The bro in law is so fascinating to me, I don't think he's like obsessed but definitely a jealous and possesive man. Because of the title I for sure thought they got together after the two were married.. Turns out it's the opposite. They were in a relationship, in love and got into arguments all the time because he prioritised his sister above all else and suggested they take a break.. In the meantime the two suddenly announced that they were getting married. Now he kissed the seme and even sucked him while he was asleep so all this is to have his man to himself. However I was still surprised when we were in the sister's POV, where we're told she fell in love with him at first sight and was the one who proposed as well. The guy even told him that he was still in love with her brother and used to be in a relationship. He even sent his pic the morning after they slept as proof. Clearly this man only see u as an obstacle. The girl also gives homophobic vibeszz..

Ooh I love this! Poor uke tho! He looks so good and seems so used to the seme, even when he holds his waist or fiddles with his fingers and licks it.. So I assume he's been this way since the beginning? I love a story like this and the plot is plotting as well saurr.. I love that he's so smart as he's a Baedong as well

Mmhhmm.. I like this saurr much. I loove loove loove that you can just feel the attraction the ML has towards MC. Like u can tell he hates being attracted to MC and is actively fighting it(at first) and is disgusted that he likes him. I love when the attraction starts. The sex scenes were droolworthy and I like the characters. The fellow painter, the second ML.. I live for them. The MC isn't as annoying as Steel Under Silk and I actually really like him. I can tell why people are so charmed by him.
