Im on the same boat
Is it too different?? And where did you read it?
I think the overall atmosphere has been changed. The novel was somehow dark and gloomy (in my opinion.) Ex: 1st commander was not worried about soldiers etc. He was the accomplice of the war profiteer. It conveyed the pure sense of treason. And, Ashler was not soft at all. Ex: Abel is touched that Karas stayed beside him then kiss and blah blah. How can I cheer for their kiss when I know that Karas had slaughtered almost every doctor nurse and person who was unable to save Abel. How does this make him better than the council to rule over the people?
Ahhh so they softened many characters here huh. Ig the atmosphere is a lot different then. Maybe he was like yandere type in novel or blackflag maybe. I wonder why they changed it so much though? No censorship in Korea.
Maybe they found it dark too. Idk. As I said, I dropped the novel. So, I don't know the characters' development there but the impression I got from Karas was "mad king"
It makes sense. So these are two different versions then. Maybe they thought people can't really accept that much cruelty in main character. Who knows maybe they might just insert 2-3 lines like backstory and not really explore it much.
Tbh it wasn't the cruelty it was Abel excusing Karas for brutal horrible things with 0 work on Karas's part. It gets really graphic with SA between and it generally doesn't handle mature topics with grace. I LOVE game of thrones and it's WAAAY worse but it doesn't try apologizing for horrible people. If the SA and murder weren't romanticized I would be there for the novel, grit and all.
That's a point
S/a between who????
Abel gets assaulted by so many people it is insane.... ML included...
Aghhh. Manhwa looks nothing like it. Would that not ruin the flow? I hope they don't take it here but let's see. Though why others?? Who are these people? I am okay with spoiler.
Most are randos that are there just to assault him. The one that was the worst was with the ML it is extremely graphic dubcon that describes how Abel feels scared and in pain. There was one where he was abducted by soldiers and they try to gang r*** him. There are points in the Manga that show people lusting after Abel and most of the imagine assaulting him or try to. There are more that I can't remember and I dropped it at the ML dubcon scene so there were definitely more after.
I see. Thanks for the spoiler.
I was fond of this story so I decided to read the novel which turned to be a big mistake(in my case.) I dropped the novel but I can't anymore relate to one of my favorite manhwas cuz of changes and modifications. What should I do
