Wolves behind bars
Seriously mysterious I hope it won’t be deranged
Tale of the Yellow Dragon
53 I’ll check only if there’s a he at the end ˆ ˆ;;; becoming a dragon’s lover in another world, Dojin, slowly has also to learn that his beloved dragon sacrificed himself 26 time already to save his life His power is exhausted and their loved seems cursed… so what can a simple guy do to make his happy ending happen ? The story telling is circonvoluted, and you learn little at a time The characters are interesting seems to have a bot of depth and room for growth… the art is pretty enough (it’s static and i don’t like the mouth much, but it’s ok otherwise) You don’t lose time with love me love me not, and our boys is a boy, not an effeminate version of a man…
The Villain's Savior
84 - a girl fall into a novel, her heart filled with compassion for a miserable vilain - she hopes to save him In that world everyone has a fated lover with a corresponding seal She got hers upon arrival, but his doesn’t show The odds are, he truly is her fated one, but his heart is too dark, corrupted and selfish So far it could be ok, but it’s long Not only we have to see him being tortured into madness before she comes in, after that we have to see the crazy him interacting with the hesitant her and it takes more than a third of the story to become sincere IN the mean time, she also cannot recognise the kindness of the god wha granted her her wish, she has no faith If it’s a short ride, than it could be ok, but it feels like it will last, and every possible clue they have to make their relationship clear is doomed to be rejected, lost or forgotten It makes for a painful first half and a lengthy second where the ML turn into a yandere, being stupidly mean ro the butler, the sister, etc - these might be attempt at humor, but it only shows him being nasty and fake once again in the end, the concept is weak yet nice, but, the execution is poor Above all, despite the MC claiming he’s a good man, the writer made the ML so nasty and petty that you can’t really root for him, also scars don’t mean depth and the characters are really oversimplified Even with a happy ending, i can’t say i enjoyed he ride so much
Starry Night Club
149 - very much like zodiac knights, yet different - i skip part each time i read, probably always from the forest part… It’s pretty, but the images are blurred and are to read, and so is the scenario It’s probably a little bit disappointing because it starts rather lightly, yes becomes seriously dark and gloomy, the curses are thick - I don’t like the bitterness of the story I’m not fond of the greek myth parts, because of the zodiac; there is nothing fresh, and the imagery is poor, i like much more zero’s girlfriend look and part, it’s more creative Ithad a lot of ambition , maybe like nana, the writer might have exhausted herself on too much drama - sacrificing beautiful characters is maybe really too much ?
Contract Concubine Webtoon
6 - 4.5 - surprisingly good - with just a little twist in the MC background, it manages to bring a common scenario to something quite mysterious and entertaining The characters are interesting, there’s a bitof plot (s?), the art is fine (the Mc does look boyish though) The romance part is what you could actually do without The most interesting part would be how two world don’t collide, parallel discussion that never meets and realities that simply diverge too much for any of them to reachan understanding Plot holes are probably many, but so far it holds between humour, and te raspy sour tint of the relationship
A Stepmother's Märchen
35 - 4.5 - a bit too dark as the plot grows It started with a fairy tale like narrative, followed by a « sound of music « like relationship between the new spouse/ widow and the four orphan kids (adorable) But just like the movie, darkness and political intricacies are not so far and it becomes a stressful read Nonetheless it pretty good, the characters are deep, the MC is not « strong « in an ordinary manner, in fact she’s rather weak - but also deep, brave, sincere, and strong willed - that makes her very relatable Characters are imperfect and feels true, with their contradictions and mistakes Now let’s wait and see ?
Lord of the Mysteries
28 - good, seemingly original, a bit short to have an opinion, albeit pretty dense and rich in information The beginning probably suffer from the abundance of introductions
Daughter of the Emperor
51 - made me run 25 years old baby is pretentious childish and dumb - fine The art is atrocious - made me think of middle age babies and infant - we’ll survive, grown ups seems ok Relationship are a bit cute, but it’s sooo dark and the background filled with unceasing wars and power struggle is really too much When we met the knight that beg for death, because he’s exhausted, i felt this was not enough feel good for that much pain and angst It also seems a number of new characters will hop in, but these first grown ups are in so much pain , i don’t want to wait a virtual decade or two to see them well
Herscherik - The Epic of the Reincarnated Prince
7.5 - baby against corruption, where can it go , starts strong and hard Absurd side story, that contradicts the character previous behavior Absurd number of brothers ans sisters Useless and powerless dad Op yet not op kid It's full of holes, despite that, there's a noble storytelling ambition behind, but how can it hop between the holes ?
