I'm very much entertained. I saw someone say that the art quality drops but I didn't really feel that with the current art? It's a pretty casual read and I occasionally feel called out by some of Leehan's thoughts as a university student as well lol

The Twin Siblings’ New Life

I didn't read the epilogue for reasons you probably already know. They did Arhen so dirty. The title says the "twins" new life but somehow it ended up as only Arienne's new life. I'm not totally opposed to romance per se in stories like this, I just wish it wasn't the guardian that ended up being her love interest. Because in the first place Arhen was the one who had more imperial blood than his sister, but he's being shoved aside by the guardian (he was so excited about meeting this guy btw, like Arienne couldn't even feel her connection with this guy properly when they first met) since now his sister and guardian are in love. Arhen even had to give them the space for their relationship to progress, what is up with that development? The favoritism isn't even subtle because it feels as if Arhen just doesn't exist in the story anymore. He deserves his happiness too, him and Arienne suffered together from both this life and their previous one. But in the end the author decided to give everything to Arienne, leaving Arhen with nothing in return for his sacrifices and battles he fought. Wish we could've just gone the route where the twins would travel to places together like they initially planned at the beginning of the story, it was that bond between them that drew me in to reading this in the first place.

Initially, I was only interested in this because of the fact that it takes place in the same world as Estio. It grew on me though, and I like how Egret isn't actually a flawless wise sage during his first life. He made mistakes, he's a coward, a kid that was forced to grow too early who suddenly got handed this power which was too much to handle for him when he couldn't even have a proper upbringing. In the first place all he wanted was to not be alone, but suddenly he has this power that can change the world and the first time he tried to use it thinking he could help others, things turned out for the worse. Speaking of how Egret handled his first life, seeing how his relationship with Freed, Reina, and Halder during the first timeline, I understand why it must've been so frustrating to see their father-figure wither away like that when they know that he could do better. However, I don't agree with the path they chose to get revenge on him. On the other hand, I do understand why Egret turned out to be a "coward" and not wanting to be too deeply involved in other people's affairs, or how he holds himself back from feeling too much (showing intense emotions), considering the first time he let himself do such a thing, he quite literally blew up a whole basement and including the humans inside there that he wanted to protect. Thinking about it from his perspective, I'd be scared too in letting myself feel. Because I know that my actions can bring about pain and suffering to people even if I actually had good intentions to help them. With this whole deal of the antagonist's situation. Honestly, I think Freed is obsessed and we can't really call what he's feeling for Egret to be just hatred or remorse. His feelings for Egret is so complicated that even if I'm seeing everything through a third person's perspective, it's difficult for me to make out what he really wants. I don't think he actually wants to kill Egret and that's what I'll believe until proven otherwise. It's quite an interesting premise, I didn't expect to get this hooked. Truth be told it is a bit slowburn on everything, but I do like the MC's personality and the growth he's showing us in this second life, so I'm looking forward to see how this story develops in the future.

I Can't Believe I've Been Reincarnated and Fallen in Love with My Favorite Character of a Shoujo

The plot is quite generic and predictable, the art is pretty nice though. Sometimes, it's fun to read cliché stories like this.

Legend of the Snake Cave

Ongoing | 조은,확천금 | 2022 released

I came here for snake smut but this ended up being a wholesome story QwQ Of course the smut is still there, but there's also this evil snake god that turns into a golden retriever for Yeon-hwa, so cute. Wish there was more of their shenanigans tbh, but this is a nice short read and the art is amazing.
