andy2mc's manga / #God(6)

8 Felt too short but so good omg. The plot premise is super fresh and kinda reminded me of the titan’s bride. I wish it was longer!!

8 Fruit baskets meets bl. Love the art (especially the coloring details). Plot is plotting. So damn angsty. PAIN. The flashbacks of him old always got me in my feels. Sobbing!!! I wish we got some side stories. I would have given an 8.5 if there were a bit of happy moments in it too. It was almost too much angst, which was why I couldn’t read the whole thing in one go and took a several month wait in between. But overall it was *really* good!!

9 The leveling up is a bit too fast paced imo. I’d prefer a slower leveling up like Debut or Die So far the “reflective” one liners are kinda corny/overused “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” “If you look at the abyss for too long the abyss will look back at you” etc. It feels kinda gimmicky and cliche Also so far the plot progression is very linear and predictable. That said, it’s still quite enjoyable to read since seeing an underdog getting stronger through a shown progression manner is always incredibly satisfying! AND THE FIGHT SCENES ARE FUCKING EPIC️️️ truly phenomenal. Reading them is such an experience The fight scenes are absolutely phenomenal. So fucking thrilling to read! The harem coding annoys me tho It just keeps getting better and better The ending was a bit lame

8 The mc is so shameless, it's so iconic. He’s the master of bullshitting. No wonder it’s the same author of virgin witch. They really do feel related lmao It’s SO FUCKING FUNNY. This made me laugh soooo hard. It kinda reminds me of Single Not Ready to Mingle, but even better i think. There’s so many pop culture references it’s so fucking funny. “Wanna worship and chill” “fifty shades of abroria” And the religious dirty talk is so hawwwt. It feels so unholy to read lol, but really spicy eheheh The religious fanatism anecdotes are really poignant too. Chill inducing really. I hate the priest ml so much. He legit scares me I was reading it for shits and giggles. It was overall so light hearted and hilarious the whole time. But it suddenly shifted into such a heavy theme with the priest raping scenes. It broke me out in sobs…. the way the mc just tries to be complacent and gaslight himself that he’s not being raped since he knows he can’t escape either way so he’s trying to take back as little control as he can to survive through it. I’ve never seen such a triggering and raw insight into a victim’s mind during rape in BLs. I expected this to be a “turning your brain off” smutfest, but it sobered me right up. It’s so accurately written that makes it that much more triggering. It very accurately depicts PTSD from SA and what goes through a person’s mind while it’s occurring— which was completely unexpected from this series and well, made it incredibly triggering. I’m almost desensitized to rape in BLs since it’s so freaking common. For better or worse it’s usually romanticized the heck out of it, so you just kinda compartmentalize and be like “yaoi logic, just gotta turn off my brain for this one ig” But this time, it was so rawly depicted from the person’s being raped POV that it was sobering (and triggering)

7 (potential 7.5?) Ooop I thought it was already complete smh. The plot concept is kinda cool but the noncon was kinda unnecessary since it was made it a super wholesome manga right after
