apopoi's manga / #historical(125)

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.

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.

I don't like it as much as I thought I would. The story got stale after a while, with stronger enemies he must vanquish. Not to mention the people that got caught in the crossfire. I'm not the biggest fan of this so I'll most likely not continue this, the only reason I got this far was through sheer willpower. I wonder if we'll get to see his friends from his time training as assassins. The white haired girl dying was a shame but I'm glad the MC remembers her, and that it was her wish he fulfilled. Him sleeping around gave me the ick honestly but what can I expect from a Murim manhwa.. I was deluding myself. I hate how people keep on underestimating the MC and trouble keeps on brewing.. Just leave it be. I hate when there is no end goal and we just keep on going and going and going.

Cute. Adorbs. Love them. 10 year age gap but it doesn't show so I don't have a problem with it. As long as it ain't obvious and also my mans love to play around so.. Because it's a manga and the art style is kind of generic I didn't get it when they complimented their looks or whatever.. Like talking about pale skin.. U guys are literally on a black and white paper. The vampire cosplay was nice. I love MC's development. Family is trash per usual, can someone tell me what's up with sisters being in competition or just being trashy, jealous literally in every shoujo!! The hairstyles were really pretty. Volume 4 Ch14

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.

I actually enjoyed this. The twin brother is so intriguing to me, actually I started this only because of him. I saw a reel of him in glasses sitting on the MC's lap and he was serving looks so I had to read it. The characters aren't interesting, the plot isn't there but I can keep reading. Nothing's really special about the MC, it's just she has blue eyes that only heirs have so technically speaking she should be the ruler but obviously that didn't happen. Also everything moves so quickly, the ML gets attached to her right away and things are set in motion without any setting up. No ground work whatsoever. The fact that her twin has never touched her is so interesting.. He offers her to other people but is again an obsessive and jealous person who has what seems to be separation anxiety. The way he looks at the MC, obviously he lusts after her and the way he reacted when she made that sound as well. Like everything points towards incest so I am very intrigued about this. The ML isn't giving sorry.. The sex scenes are alright tho.

So far it's okay. It doesn't reel me in and make me glued to the screen. Nothing major. The MC isn't unlikable but he isn't the most enjoyable either. He's stubborn, bull headed and doesn't think things through. It's like looking at a third rate villain. The thing is he is perceived as being smart because the other characters are so damn stoopid that it's verging on the realm of absurdity. Forget the misunderstood trope, I actually like that, this is just plain creativity on their parts. I don't get this. About his third concubine, I hope we don't meet her.. So far we haven't met female characters except for the one shot assassins and prostitutes. And I would like to keep it that way please. The other first disciple... Man he's so fineeeee. Like what? That slutty hairstyle with that strand and his beauty mark.. The earrings, the attire... Him.. Ugh he's phenomenal. What a waste of character design. Pretty privilege is so real.. He's so stupid and sooo goddamn slow but he's so pretttyyyy
