just_m3h's manga / #Master x Servant(3)

Hate these entitled dicks. Hate their outlook towards omegas. He's working so hard just to survive, he deserves better.

Well, well, well. Doesn't this look delicious XD Ch 4

Kyon becomes a servant at "aristocrat" Lucaon's mansion (aristrocrats are a class of humans born with superhuman abilities and a crystal embedded into their chest). At first, that's all they are, master and servant. But as the two become more and more involved with each other, the relationship between the gentle, lovestruck Kyon and arrogant Lucaon becomes more and more complicated. There are many things that prevent me from rating this 5/5. First of all, there's no clear resolution to the issue with Intron. The organisation still seems to be active, and their head still alive somewhere, scheming to stop the development of the antidote, possiblyby killing Lucaon. Second, Lucaon never seems to find out that his original servants never betrayed him. He goes on hating them AND other servants he currently employs. Third, I don't mind so much that Ryan passed away, as much as I mind how badly wrapped up his death was. There really wasn't much closure. He was not a great character, certainly (I kind of hated him, tbh). Being at the root of the development of VS, pulling all the shit he did with Kyon, etc., it's hard not to. But Lucaon and Sihan do deserve closure. Fourthly, while I would like to learn more about Karin and Sihan, I did feel like their background stories which were covered in the final chapters, were kinda forced and rushed (out of place, too). Fifth, I don't like Christoph, despite his being forced by his brother to do a lot of things, we also know he's a selfish arsehole. But. But, my heart breaks for him. That is such a sad way to live. All in all, the story had amazing potential, but didn't really live up to everything it could have been. It wasn't bad. Just not amazing, either. 4.6
