I think the author is going for a "I'll put my loved one above everything" type of character with Horus but it comes across as like...childish "you're mine" kind of dynamic. I really cannot feel the chemistry between H & S at all, not even one bit. I'm so done with both Horus and Foreign god this is the first time ever in a BL where I'm like are we done with the romantic interactions and can we please get back to the plot? If the author were to retake the Seth/Isis sibling relationship and expand on it/repair it, I would find it way more interesting than Horus & FG sniffing around Seth like perverts.... Once again tho this webtoon has an absolutely stunning art style ...
You fucking get it
These three characters (Horus, Seth, Foreign god) have no chemistry between each other. I really dislike Horus I just feel like he is so childish and has little personality despite being in the story for 100+ chapters, and the foreign god it's not much better. I think lately I lost the plot of the story and would've dropped the series were not for the fact that the art style is drop dead gorgeous, so is the character design and the environments (and I also think despite it all Seth is an interesting main character and I do like him). The author/artist definitely knows her stuff when it comes to drawing and is extremely talented. the character design truly shines through, this webcomic looks incredible and is way above average in the style department. Had it not looked so good I would've stopped reading at least 10 problematic scenes back. I hope the author finds her way in her story-telling, her art is beautiful and it's what I'm sticking out for
I agree with you about the chemistry of Seth and Horus, it needs way more development for a love story with 150+ chapters. So far, it is more a story of Seth trying to redeem himself with his son Anubis and escaping Osiris. I personally like Horus, but their love scenes don’t feel like they are real lovers yet. Even they already kissed, it needs way more development so we can root for them until the end. And FG is not helping for them to be alone and resolve their love. And how it looks, the FG is going to stay alone again with Seth and Horus is going to see how his mom or the kingdom are doing.
Taking out all those problematic scenes, Ennead would have been a remarkable story telling. The R15 version has taken out those scenes and were replaced by more story and I think it is worthy. The r15 side story was cute.
I still love Ennead and I support the author in every way possible but I wish it has more romantic scenes or more development with the obvios endgame Horus.
That's why I speculated the author wanted a poly relationship but is chickening out now cause they already introduced Horus as the ML. Seriously, even the Geezus guy has more chem with Seth. I'm not saying I hate Horus but development is so little, to the point that readers are confused on who's the real ML is.
I want to make an app just to continuously find a way to give you multiple kudos.. I mean, I do not get people that genuily root for Horus. Horus has one line, he's so mediocre and just cling to Seth.. its unsightly..
one of the seemingly controversial opinions I had on this comic and got downvoted for (lol) is that I truly felt like the foreign god had more chemistry with Seth because at least he gets responses from him, and the interactions are fun to read, foreign god, despite having way less screen time has much more characterization than Horus and his personality shines through. of course FG is a POS who R*** Seth but so is Horus. ugh all ML kinda suck here. to be honest the only character I like is Seth.
He feels vastly under developed. there's nothing I can think of him that makes him an interesting character worth following, his personality nowhere to be seen. I think this is a fault on the writing part, my constructive criticism is the author failed to give Horus a well rounded personality, also missed the opportunity to establish romantic tension early on, (at least to me) failed to establish chemistry between the two. their relationship feels extremely EXTREMELY one sided and the kiss they shared felt unearned, even after 100+ chapters. Of course doesn't help that the author has a very obvious R**** fetish which immediately undermines any interesting interaction be it between Horus or Foreign god (who I find to be more interesting than Horus, at least his personality is evident) I do get why some people root for Horus and the answer is simple: He's hot and they're here to read about hot men going at it. a lot of people tolerate lackluster story telling if the art style and character design is good. I'm done with the story but I stick around to learn from this author because the way they do paneling is really good, I really like their art but they suffer from somewhat weak character writing.
I'm sorry for the essay, wanted to vent lol
If you like good writing and well rounded personality in characters you might be interested in reading bongchon bride. it's here on mangago, I really liked it even though the art style is simpler
No, I agree... I did not want them to kiss. It felt forced. I pictured in my head two cardboard rubbing together...
Horus wants Seth, My annoyance is that he feels entitled to Seth's attention. I do not get it. He keeps saying he loves Seth and forcing himself into Seth's life. he knows that his mother does not have a good relationship with him YET he is in his space. Seth has said NUMEROUS times that he is not gay but Horus does not care. he even wants to deprive Seth from being with his son due to some misplaced jealousy..I just.. do not like his personality. he abandoned his duty to rule to chase after Seth. He is so irresponsible. The annoying thing is that the way he is badgering Seth for his attention without reprieve will make Seth give in.. not because he feels the same but just to please him because he has been with him from the beginning.. that is not love...
I hate the foreign god too, feigning ignorance like he doesn't know Seth is a god too and claiming he bought him.. the whole town is mad.
The author does have a R*** fetish cause that market scene where Seth was kidnapped and sold was so out of pocket, like, what did that scene do to the overall story?? nothing!! it was so off and almost made me drop the manhwa...
The only character here that is almost well-written is Seth. We have seen Seth go through so many personality changes from the beginning of the series to now. He has gone from the lovable devoted brother, husband and friend to the heartbroken tyrant and then to the repentant god.. He is so malleable and adaptable to every environment he is in.
That is why I am still here but believe me, If Seth goes through one more R*** situation again, I'll be dropping this...
Nah, I liked Horus before the face reveal. I always liked him despite admitting his characterization seems bland and needs depth and development because, so far he's just been a reactive character whose whole story has been developed around Seth (and it doesn't help that his face has been kept hidden for way too long), but I think Horus' future character development will be huge, as it will definitely include a BIG CONFRONTATION with Osiris. Meanwhile, he kept underdeveloped because the author's obviously been trying to keep him mysterious (like, with how the heck does Horus seem to always be "aware" and able to figure out everything? He's almost psychic, on par with Sekhmet in that respect). He's contradictory and mysterious because he's supposed to be A) the youngest and most inexperienced character, having his very first experience out in the real world, yet B) still the one destined to become king of all the gods, and the greatest one, at the same time... I like how the story makes us wonder how the heck he will make the transition from A to B, in the future... so, at least for now, I don't mind that he stays a bit longer as this type of "underdeveloped" character.
Of course you get down voted. Fans blindly follow on who's the ML rather than actually analyzing and reading the story. They can't see the shortcomings of the author.
The Jez guy RAPED Seth??! Are y'all fucking kidding me? U fucking Shipp the Jez guy with Seth ?? When he buyed him from the merchants and then was a slave??! Do y'all remember that Seth was r by him? Or did y'all just forget it like that bc y'all are fetishizers and weird fucking ppl. Please stop with the bullshit!! And yes so did HORUS but he was controlled by that thing idk I forgot but I'd rather ship Horus and Seth than that bitch with Seth. PERIODT!! And Horus is still trying to get that character development and the author def wants to develop his story, character etc..
You sound 12 years old.
So did Horus, you can defend him all you want, but the mirror is an indication that part of him wanted that. Seth isn't blameless either.
Also, we're not shipping Jesus with Seth, we're pointing out that the author failed to make chemistry between Seth and Horus, that even Jesus has more chemistry with Seth. Basically it's author's lacking. And if we did so what? Every fandom has some blackbelly ships. Get over it.
So if Horus is still trying to get character development, it's not our fault that the author gave J and Seth too much development at first.
Also, J bought him to save Seth from the humans. In the latest chapter too, J said he didn't intend to treat Seth as slave in the first place.
Lmaoo
So everyone r*ped Seth at this point, as you say. And you'd rather ship him with Horus? If you really hate that fetishizing bullsh, then you shouldn't ship him with anyone at all. Please stop your online wokeism here.
Also, Jesus guy knew buying Seth as a slave from humans will do nothing to Seth. Do you think Seth will agree to actually be a slave for him? Do u also think Jesus guy thought so too? Of course not, a god willing to abide in the rules of humans? Bullcrap. J knew Seth wouldn't acknowledge, but he still did even if it costed him alot of money to save Seth. Just getting your facts straight. Next time please learn to analyze before writing hypocritical bullsh*t and labeling people fetishizers.
that person calling people out for "fetishizing" when the author of Ennead has the most blatant and obvious R*** fetish I've ever seen in BL... reading comprehension flew out the window
LMAOOOOOO
But…In this latest chapter, Horus definitely is deeper in with Seth than FG. Cause he does say “Because he is the undefeatable god. I trust him” and I thought that was really respectable. He seemed way closer to Seth than that clown. But I don’t like any of them because Seth deserves better.
Nah, just cause he said that, doesn't mean he's closer. We're talking about how the author developed their relationships. You can't expect readers to believe they're more developed using a one-liner, when all you did before was make Seth have funny and annoying interactions with the FG.
Actions speak louder than words. So far that's how it went. However, the author must've noticed this and us starting to put some work just like the one you mentioned. But it's too late, 100+ chapters and Horus finally gets to say this one-liner on this chapter.
True. This story is invoking a lot of debates lol. The debates are more feisty than season 2 of ennead
The author truly has some concerning fetishes. It’s not good and I hope author realizes it is not what the general public is reading this for. But it may be too late for that
I can't w this author they're bordering on sick for this. After all this time we finally get to see him somewhat reciprocate Horus, his love interest, and we get the non con BS again. I really just can't find Horus sympathetic, he's just as r4pey as the others. Has the nerve to cry about Seth being w the foreign god against his will when he's doing the exact same. At this point I'm only reading along bc the art style is gorgeous and I'm already 146 chapters deep. I honestly feel like dropping this manhwa, I don't really feel the connection between Horus/Seth at all, it's so forced. I really like Seth as a character though, he saves this story for me
A few weeks ago I wrote something along the lines "I'm getting bored of Horus. I need at least his face reveal to not loose interest" next chapter we got a Horus face reveal. (In the raws) then I made I a comment a few days ago saying something like "if Seth were to make a move I would be surprised since I don't find their relationship reciprocal" BAM Seth just kissed Horus in the Korean raws. Now, what do you guys want. ask away and I'll will it into existence by complaining
Lol, we can ask away for anything? then I'll ask that you always be happy, fam. There'll probably be others asking for the webtoon's happy ending. So I'll leave that to them and ask for our prophet's happiness
This actually touched my heart in such a way.... damn. I was not expecting to shed a couple tears over a comment on a random manga website, this hit me out of nowhere. Thank you. Even though I wrote that I'm a complainer you were still sweet to me...I'm touched. I will YOUR happiness into existence.
Truly, love can be found anywhere, even in the comment section of a Yaoi manga <3
Have them make sweet love by the fire
I actually do not feel the chemistry between Horus and Seth at all (is this controversial?). I feel like it's way too one-sided, for it to be a whopping 140 chapters long there hasn't been much development in their relationship, It's even developed a pattern:
-Seth in trouble, Horus rescues him, Horus shows affection, Seth rejects him. It gets quite repetitive. Seems like this might be a true slow burn, or at least I hope so. Even 140 chapters in I feel like reciprocal love from Seth would come out of nowhere.
I think the issue is you’re reading this with the expectation that this is a romance (it really is not) when it’s actually a redemption story with a whole lot of incest.
I don’t doubt that Mojito will have them get together and focus on the romance but this is what we in the industry call an extra slow burn (no one else call it that there is not industry but you get the point).
I do agree there’s a pattern presented here but it’s not one I’m too upset about since we do get a lot about Seth learning to cope with the problems he created.
He's kinda boring I hope the author at least shows his face soon to spice things up. The foreign god was at least funny
His face was exposed once before...
What chapter?!
Give me a moment homie
I thought they showed his whole face before, (I haven't reread ennead) but in ch. 22 (some before & after) they just show shots of his eye(s) :D my bad lolz
Lol it’s all good XD writer probably won’t show Horus’ face in fear it would incapacitate the fans.
Onggg I bet he'd be so fine >;))))
Am I lacking my knowledge of Egyptian Mithology of does Horus doesnt have an eye due to Seth? Maybe it's because of that his face was not shown yet.
Yo they be showing Horus face on Instagram (latest chapter in Korea came out) Have you seen it?! Even more handsome then I could imagine (≧∀≦) suddenly I’m team Horus
Yea! His jawline is so smexy
lol yeah! he is good looking. It's so funny his face reveal happened like 2 days after I made my comment complaining about becoming bored of him not showing his face hahahah
Lol now complain how the plot is slow (≧∀≦)
The plot really is slow lately! It needs to pick up !!
(hoping my brainwaves reach the author again)
Seth has more chemistry with the foreign god (not a lot either way) but still is a lot more than he has with Horus
yes, Horus is hot but there's not much personality to go around, I feel like Seth at least can hold a conversation with FG and have some chemistry.
Chemistry as in? And I don’t think I’ll ever like the foreign god, but he is funny at times.
I don't really like the guy, he's like the class clown without a sad backstory (for now at least)
I measure then both in the scale of "Can I trust them with my kids?" Horus? Sure of course, total sweetheart, I would let him watch my kids any day, Foreing guy? Hell no
Class clown, best description. And I put my bets that he’s Zeus, fits him; rapist hah.
Foreing guy. Lmao.
How could seth have chemistry with a dude who literally wants him as his slave plaything
That’s why I asked chemistry as in which one, cause there’s diff kinds haha.
not sure if it's chemistry or just the fact that walmart jesus has a few more braincells to go around whereas horus's only thought at any given time just seems to be "uncle pretty <3"
Man... So many people seriously don't understand this story. They be tripping. Horus is literally just a unique character with SO much too to grow.
He's very wise and super caring, but he's childlike and is jealous. He is impulsive and stubborn. He would do anything for Seth and if it wasn't for Horus, Seth would be dead or repeatedly raped by FG after taking him as his "slave." Horus is the reason Seth has been able to change and open up.
Horus is clingy, but for good reason.
He's not a dull or boring character. He's just misunderstood by so many readers. Especially readers who don't know the lore behind him and his previous life.
Seth doesn't have chemistry with FG. He pushes FG away, where as he allows Horus to be close even if it annoys him.
FG is a funny character, I guess, but we still don't know much about him. My guess is he Helius (the Greek god that is a part of the Olympian Greek god Apollo.)
Helius is said to have yellow glowing eyes.
I actually disagree, I wouldn't trust horus with my kids cuz I feel like he gives zero fucks about anyone but Seth and would instantly leave him to kiss Seth's ass
Valid, Horus is still better than rapist Zeus tho. If I had to choose either, it has to be Horus. Hopefully there’s more to him than just set in future lol
If anyone's intentions were to hurt Seth, yeah hed not give two fucks about Seth.
I think FG is Helios the Greek god that had yellow glowing eyes.
If you have all been following the lore, Horus lived a past life and I wonder why that with him dying, everyone forgot about him. I wonder what he was like.
Who are you referring to by he’d not give two fucks about Set?
If you ask me, I’m lost with the lore lmaoo. Juggling many Bl books and this story going on hiatus, etc, lost would be my only destination.
I don’t mind you telling me the lore, not everything ofc. I’ll probably re read this once I’m done with my other stories.
Oh my god I'm sorry I was tired when I wrote that. I meant to say about them*, not Seth. Lol my bad.
Haha yeah I just have everything fresh and new because I binged it in a day, and looking up stuff on Twitter ans finding the hieroglyphs translations. It's a lot. Lol.
Well what DO you know about the Lore?
The only reason fg is around is cause he thinks seth is pretty, whereas horus genuinely thinks about seth's past and everything. I mean he literally talks about it in a chapter..
Yesssss!!!!!
EGGGSACTLAYYYY
