This is the most wholesome thing ever omg. So like the powers are manifestations of childhood trauma and like watching them moving pass them is giving me a proud parent moment. They’re so adorable omg OLAY SO IK THERE ARE A FEW PLOT HOLES (like who tf is the ginger) BUT READING THIS BRINGS OUT SO MUCH HAPPINESS THAT I CAN GLOSS OVER IT.

It was good but the ending was not it for me.. he just ends up with both of them?? I like the concept and the plot but god the ending.. they’re so possessive too which is normal in manhwas I guess BUT STILL. So many questions and not enough answers despite having so many chapters. IS HIS FRIEND ALIVE OR NOT?? They said he was but then it just goes to the palace.. also it’s not bc I don’t like a poly ending but it’s jsut so strange due to how jealous they both are of each other but now they’re jsut okay with it? Well they HAVE to be okay with it or else the whole kingdom would burn. (“Coexisiting is unavoidable and I don’t want Suu to die”) Honestly kinda opening up to the ending now. Reading it like both of them would die without Suu what choice is there really? I forget if the two assistants get married or not but I want the one who really hates him job please <3. ALSO ANY SCENE WHERE HES DOING YK WITH THE DRAGON ALWAYS FEELS RLLY AWKWARD AND FORCED UNLIKE WHEN ITS WITH THE CROWN PRINCE YKYK? Now thinking about it the ending does really fit, the story isn’t a pure sweet romance but rather the manipulation of others in order you reach your goal at the end. The wrongs that must be done for survival, not that this is wrong but ykj get it. It’s the most practical solution that leads to the most happiness on both sides and they’re okay with it so it’s okay. Idk why I was so against it, it makes senses. Also I love Suu sm.. AWWEE DO YOU SEE HOW SWEET THE I HATE MY JOB GUY IS WITH HIS BROTHER??? HUSBAND MATERIAL. “Horses are expensive just eat humans.” I love husband material sm. The dragon’s baby form is better. No but where can I get a Heegeon… Reread it and honestly it’s so much better than the first time. I hope in his next life he can finally have the life he wants because even at the end he never really finds true peace he just learns to accept his fate, which could be annoying or a bad ending, but I think it’s just realistic. There never is a definitive conclusion, even when you jsut want to run away from everything you can’t. Someone can be your whole world and then become nothing in the blink of an eye. He loves the crown prince and he’s a part of the dragon but still does not give a shit about the land they live in. That’s crazy. One of my favs. I was kinda confused how he ended up with both at the end but after this rereading it makes sense and it’s the best ending for all of them. Still a bit upsetting how Suu still can’t find his purpose Also to answer my past self’s question Nadar is alive and he’s living in the village with no memory of his past self. Suu got the chance to go live with him again but he chooses to go back to the crown prince sooo. All time fav

It’s similar to the dragon rain one but a lot shorter. The story is quite beautiful and it was very exhilarating (every chapter ended with me going OHH or OOO) reading it. The romance is more on the tame side and also I have no clue who the big angry guy is called but he has some real anger issues. I’m so glad no one died tho because it was looking close..

Shit translations but interesting concept Update: The translations got better over the chapters and the ending was really cute. I’m a curious about how he got to the other world tho, they literally never explain it in any of the manhwas.. ALSO WHERE DID HIS BROTHER GOO I NEED EXPLANATIONSS

The Expert Boyfriend Snatcher

Ongoing | manman | 2019 released

I’m so confused like what’s happening??! And like also that last arc was so incredibly uncomfortable to read.. some of these are just not it.. where does he go back to at the end?? Why is he going to different worlds? Where is he? So incredibly confusing.. it’s fine if you don’t think too much about it tho. I read the summary but if I didn’t then I would have no clue.

Something about the clueless friends to lovers trope makes me so unbelievably mad, BOY HOW CAN ONE BE SO DENSE. Some parts made me cringe really badly but it’s alright! It was cute and extremely frustrating at the same time. I loved the art and the little sheep story imagery, it added a unique aspect of the story. So cute.

YESS LITERALLY SO GOOD. THE ART, THE CHARACTERS ARE SO AMAZING. LIKE MR.DRAGON AND MAIMAI ARE THE BEST SIDE CHARACTERS! I think it’s weird how the kid he raised is dating him now but uh we can push that aside IG..

I CAN’T EXPRESS MY LOVE FOR THIS ONE. Like literally crying because of how good this was. I like how Jimmy realizes his feelings and doesn’t lie to himself and how he helps Ethan with his problems and is just there for him unconditionally. They totally forgot about Jimmy’s backstory but it doesn’t matter that much because the ending is SO FUCKING SWEET. The last line too made me cry..

YESS I LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS IN THIS!! There’s an age gap but for some reason it doesn’t feel that weird AND ALSO I LOVE THE SIDE CHARACTERS!! The story was so compelling and I just had to keep reading even without the whole romance aspect. I wish this was actually complete but ig I’ll just have to wait for the break to be over.
