Honestly, I started reading this out of pure boredom, and when I say I read all of this in one day with no break I mean it. I genuinely love the characters so much, I thought at the start that this would be generic. I was holding onto Kaluna/Karuna(??? they keep writing it differently), for dear life because I thought he'd get discarded at the first U-turn like how most interesting starter characters do in manhwa like this. I was very very pleasantly surprised. although Kaluna is still sorta drenched in mystery, I think like how Jhamad, Kaluna will also be unveiled at some point.
And as I mention Jhamad, I assumed he'd be used as some boring tank and not get an inkling of personality other than "I strong and I submit so yeah that's it, oh wait I'm also a troll and have no personality", but I'm fairly happy with how they built his character, he's fairly interesting and is actually being treated as a good character.
Same thing for Karen. I can understand that some people don't like her, but I don't know why they straight up hate on her. I was already from the start surprised that, unlike most other females in this genre, she actually didn't submit to the MC until much later. And her personality also wasn't "oh look at my boobs please, and I act like a child for some reason", but her actions had meaning. She wasn't perfect and didn't sugar up to the protagonist. I really like that about her. I'm so happy I haven't seen her blush at him once or even show signs of attraction since most females just get degraded into eye candy material by this point in the plot. I still think her design is a bit eh (coming from a graphic designer with too much time on their hands).
Right, next point. The designs. Honestly, not that bad, the protagonist actually stands out a bit in the midst of black haired protagonist. Not by a lot but I can appreciate the slight differences that set him apart from most average "I'm so op" stories. He's not that special in terms of design in my opinion. Honestly, all of the designs, apart from honestly the trolls (for some reason I really like how special they look, just so satisfying), aren't all that special. Kaluna, while not average, isn't that special either same thing for Karen. Both of them, don't get me wrong, have great designs but in a swarm they don't stand out by much. What makes them stand out is their backstory, their unique plot. I genuinely like what the twins are, and how they interact with eachother and others. It's the reason I like this story so much, it isn't generic but still upholds a similar plot/story line that is currently popular. I think it's lovely.
Now, my final thoughts, I think that if you're open minded to a different story, and unique characters I'd definitely recommend this to you. This is absolutely amazing. I'm setting off reading the novel because I don't have the time but also because I like the art style and I enjoy seeing the characters and their surroundings come to life. I'm in love with this story, it's amazing, please sit down to read it, give it a pinch of salt at first. But when your desperate like me for some genuine peak content, you're fairly open minded.

Thanks for letting me rant.
