Emerald's manga / #reencounter(126)

dropped ch. 45. too much drama for me

Pretty decent, interesting plot and premise. Execution was kinda meh though. The end felt rushed, didn't feel that conclusive. Like what happened to the bro? Is the brother being the reason for amnesia being swept under the rug? Is the MC's memories coming back? I felt like it was going at a good steady pace till the last 10-15 chapters. I do like that the ML seems in depth, most ML can come off one dimensional.

surprisingly forgot about the first couple after reading the second couple. I liked the second couple more, they took over the manhwa. I like redemption arcs. Interesting to use the villain from the first story as the mc for second. I hated his guts before, but enjoyed him as morally dubious mc becoming better. I enjoyed the first couple too from memory. Tho so much miscommunication for both stories.

Disappointed. I really enjoyed the story up until the past life flashbacks. To find out MC raised ML, and even referred to himself like a parent is just gross. Then ML getting aged quickly... I liked the reincarnation and dragon mate bit at the start, but finding out their past lives just changed how I saw the couple, like no wonder ML acts childish, like ick.

what an exhausting read. I cant believe i read this till the sun rose T_T Like the high school arc, they were cute and lovey-dovey, I really enjoyed it. But after that? The MC just kept suffering and suffering. After the rapes, ML 'tries' to act like he's changing but then he'd try to control and lock the MC away, and would lie or withhold important info to him. It was such a frustrating read. Also, a lot of nonchalant murder in this, something I'd expect from a gangster BL, not this. So it caught me off guard. I finished reading it cause I just needed to see how it ended, to see the MC after like 8 years find out the antagonist is bad. I hoped it would get better but it just kept frustrating me. Also, they probably could've skipped the 4 year reunion, like I think it was unneccesary because they seperate immediately. Also, I guess props for calling out rape? Most BL would skim or glorify it. Still wish it didn't happen
