imcrazybutimfree's manga / #Supernatural(39)

Maetel’s appearance is sO BLINDING. It’s like looking at a fucking supernova. Louis’ smile tho

I honestly don’t know why this is not as famous as others BLs out there. Perhaps for the lack of sex scenes? Honestly, I didn’t even realise it and I didn’t even care. The plot line was just immaculate as it was without any additional scene or detail or change. When the story developed from a simple body exchange between the MCs to a whole reincarnation AU with aboriginal background I LOST MY MIND!!! I’M A SUCKER FOR REINCARNATION AU and this was sooo original and well portrayed, with no angst and toxicity in the MCs’ relationship, but just growth. I honestly wish such things as fate and destiny and soulmates and reincarnation were real (T—T) then life would probably be meaningful.

I was thinking “why is it described as a comedy if I’m crying?” than the MC died because he drank alcohol after taking his meds and honestly I’m still laughing. what’s wrong with the ending tho :( I get that it’s a Chinese manhua with censorship and all but fuckkkkkkk not even a confession or a proper ending c’monnnn. I need sides chapters, this is not enough!!!

At first I really thought Kunimi had gone back in time as a second chance to make things right, but the fact that it was only a projection of his subconscious desires while he was in a coma after attempting suicide really made it hit real different and real hard. I liked the process of Kunimi recollecting his memories and waking up after that, finally knowing what he had to do to make his life meaningful once again and this time for good. Very beautiful!! Also Gaku wtf the commitment.

Reincarnation BLs just hit different. Prefect.

otohime my p*ssy is at your service

There are two problematic things with this story; the beginning and the end. I liked how the story developed but at the beginning it really made no sense at all. It wasn’t really shown how the seme developed his feelings towards the uke, to me most of his words sounded like excuses he used to win the uke over since he actually did fall in love with him at some point and didn’t want to lose him because of his sick alpha wolf mind games. The ending between the main couple is perfect but it’s totally unsatisfying for the secondary couple that had SO MUCH potential. The manhwa ended without revealing whether the second uke has feelings towards the second seme or he’s just fucking with him while being in love with the first uke instead. I’d like a spin-off about them.

I still don’t know if my vote is just and fair or too low for such a particular story. The author managed to escape commonplaces and stereotypes crafting an original story. It was a little bit confusing tho, some scenes were chained to one another through association of ideas, while other links seemed to be completely unrelated. The plot is clear though, but I would have liked some important development on the crowned prince and his physician’s side and on noah himself. Talking about Noah enneagram he’s probably a 6w7, seeking security and fucking around to avoid pain, using his nature as a witch as an excuse to mask his feelings. Even his low self esteem to be born a male is probably an excuse he uses to keep running away in the belief he doesn’t deserve anyone’s love, but he still desires someone to love him unconditionally. And this is where Ryan enters the picture: what about their first encounter? The same scene was shown through all the possible angles and povs but the author didn’t give us the whole picture. Of course the scheme of their meeting is pretty clear: Ryan gets lost, he meets the witches, since he’s a kid they spare him, he gets to know Noah but almost forgets about him since he also forgot about the other witches thanks to a potion. I felt like the whole encounter was labelled as something happening due to “fate”, just like the kid witch’s prophecy about them dying in the castle, which also felt like an irrelevant element used only to make the reader anxious. Overall, amazing plot and characters with not so good development and organising.

I intended to rate it as a four star story, but then I read it again to save some scan (the details of the artwork are LIT!) and realised how the story was particular and uncommon. The author deserves respect and acknowledgement. So here I am with my 5 stars vote!
