Genboxxy's manga / #fantasy(54)

I get what the author was trying to pull, I really do, and the characters are fine enough. But the pacing for this work was just out of whack for me and the development felt skippy that I found it lukewarm in the end. Such a shame coz it's rare to find a sub top in yaoi that isn't an overwhelming puppy seme type like this one.

Wow, just wow. Scifi, fantasy, action, romance that doesn't feel forced, power couples all in one. Plot is fantastic, art is fantastic, everything went so well together, the only fault that I can find is that it's too short, I feel like the author wanted to put more and they could've definitely expanded but then got tired and settled for shorter chapters which is why the last few ones felt rushed and everything was just resolved by the other side characters. I dunno why, but it's still good, didn't feel like too much of a deus ex machina, probs due to the background building in the earlier chaps so the plot progression and resolution still makes sense. All in all, this work is really an anti-thesis to those webcomics with very slow pacing, this one's very quick and efficient in its resolutions, it's tagged as Shounen Ai, but there's one graphic seggz scene between the main couple, only once though, just a heads up for those who has aversion to smut for some reason.

Dunno why it has such low rating, it's good. You know those story where someone wants to rescue the princess but gets sidetracked? It's this one and the ml even ends up with the prince who also previously tried to rescue another princess. It's too fast-faced for me and there's not much room for lore. but do like how animated the uke is, he also has great potential for being a power bottom (specially since they're finally together, or at least implied at the end). Seme is stoic-looking but he's really a Himbo, I like it, love their dynamic. I wish the author would continue this in a much longer form. Really enjoyed it.
