δìмíтяα's manga / #webtoon(23)

OMG THE LAST CHAPTER!!! i need to know if there is going to be a sequel to Sweet Home . There is so much more to this story !! Anyway, I liked Shotgun Boy more than sweet home. I have no idea why. Maybe because it explained more as to why the monsters came to be. Nonetheless both Shotgun Boy and Sweet Home are definitely worth the hype! I just wish to see the characters from both stories fight together the monsters. Is that too much to ask ?

This is one of the few mangas that actually gets more interesting during the second half of the story. Don’t get me wrong it’s pretty good from the very beginning, it just gets better later on. I really loved Bastard and Pigpen, so I had pretty high expectations for Sweet Home and I wasn’t disappointed! I would love to see a sequel to Sweet Home, as there are a lot of things open for interpretation. It would be great if we got to explore the premise of the evolving humans and furthermore the universe of the story after the first few weeks of the monster apocalypse.

I tried to actually complete this manga, but I failed miserably twice. It starts off quite promising and that's what keeps the reader going. The first 50 chapters or so are undeniably interesting. The same cannot be said for the rest. I managed to reach chapter 131, if I am not mistaken, where the princess gets attacked ONCE MORE for being oh so potentially powerfull? maybe? The protagonist though is not by any means a "strong female lead" as the tag used suggests. Although likable, I would personally describe her as a coward, depending on others to save her from difficult or dangerous situations. EVERY SINGLE TIME. Those others being her fiancee, father or brothers for the most part. Furthermore, it is quite annoying that the whole female population is treated so badly, while the protagonist is the exception to that rule and the reason being that she acts "cute" towards the males she encounters. I find this deeply problematic. I am under the impression that this is not headed the direction the author intended to.

The way the story unraveled was interesting, though I do believe that the author failed to progressively build suspense when it came to big moments and revelations. I really enjoyed the protagonist's personality duality and her struggle to live as Edna, while her identity as Eden came to the surface to remind her of her past life. The main couple had quite the chemistry and I personally enjoyed the side couples, although their stories developed only briefly. All in all, a great webtoon. I can't wait to read the sequel!!

I'll try to be objective with this one. *Spoilers ahead, continue with caution * So the main lead is the queen (second to the empress) and is being hated by the emperor, because in his eyes she has received more affection from the people he had desperately yearned affection from. So, he is cruel to her! He actually rapes her, redicules her every chance he gets and eventually executes her and her family. The protagonist turns back in time and has the chance to rewrite her story. She chooses a different path, works hard and becomes quite accompliced, making friends and having beautiful interactions along the way, including two lovable boys who fall in love with her. So far so good. That part of the story was excellent in my opinion. I enjoyed every moment! Unfortunately she rejects the kind hearted men who approach her and ends up with the cruel emperor, who through the twist of events, changed and came to love the protagonist, but again he remains the same man who was capable of such cruelty in the past. He wasn't under any spell, everything he did was out of his own volition. And now for the true tragic heroine the original empress, the one from the first time line. She was transferred into this world by accident and was told to marry the emperor. She didn't know anything about this new world but somehow she managed. After a few years of marriege she got neglected by her husband, abandoned by him, after giving birth to his child, and eventually murdered. In addition to that she got back in time only to be transfered into this strange world again. I couldn't help but feel sorry for her. *Spoiler free zone * There are some major plot points I consider deeply problematic but I cannot ignore the fact that this was an enjoyable read. It had its fair share of drama, adventure and decent amount of funny scenes that made me giggle. So all in all I believe that this is a good story with some flaws. If one is willing to see past them, then give this a try.

What a heartwarming story! Seeing Athanasia struggle to win her father's love was preety agonizing to me. I couldn't fathom how a father could be so cold and cruel towards his own daughter for no apparent reason. As the story progressed and we got to learn why he behaved this way I couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Their relationship developed and they came to love each other. Claude found something precious to hold onto other than his beloved Diana and a reason to lead a meaningful life, whilst Athanasia found what she longed for for so long, a family. I am just dying to see who she ends up with. It better be Lucas! I just love his character and his interaction with the princess. They were both adorable and funny. Also he is the one that helped her the most throughout her journey and understands her completely. It's not mere attraction, it is genuine love.
