People are calling it bad

And only stating what it doesn’t have. Sure, the characters are a little underdeveloped, but overall the story is nice. It’s a large break from the intense drama that BL’s tend to have, plus the lack of SA is also amazing. I think though the main couple should’ve been more developed, side characters like the queen and her brother were relatively well written. The art isn’t honestly that bad, and improves quite a bit over the story.

I had already gotten the feeling that MC was probably su!cid@l, probably because I used to be as well. I’m glad it wasn’t too dwelled on, but instead was lightly hinted at during the final arc. It seems a bit rushed to most people, but finding a reason to live, though sometimes sudden, can become a much needed life line like ML was. I also like how he chose to keep the Prince, reflecting on similarities that the characters had when they were younger. Though only later stating his feelings of isolation, he still went on to protect his people, no matter how lowly they thought of him. I especially liked how he didn’t explicitly focus on his problems, showing how selfless he can be (to the point it becomes a fault) and further developing the nature of his character.

Readers are used to grand displays of character growth, especially in the romance genre, but tend to skim over the more realistic and smaller instances within the story itself.

That’s it from me ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
