I’m at chapter 30 season 1 and I’m pretty on the fence about this…
It’s somehow both slow and too fast at the same time, ykwim? Theres like three arcs we flew through already and I feel like none of them are executed properly. I understand Daiki’s character being the cold stoic yakuza with a painful history but he’s so…bland? The MC falls in love too quickly, Toma is sweet but has no substance, and the side characters we’re supposed to view as important don’t provide much to the story at all (the blue haired guy who likes the MC, for example). I guess where I’m getting at is, does it get better? Lots of praises and the high rating gave me high hopes but this is pretty cookie cutter as far as the “my kid loves you so I love you” trope goes.
Let me clarify because ik some of you will think I’m just being argumentative, I’m not trying to completely bash on the story. It has its cute moments, for sure. But theres so many other manhwas on my list and this just feels meh, I’m clinging onto straws atp. So…what do yall think? Is it worth it to keep going?

I totally agree with you. To be honest, I don't get how both fell in love so quickly. I get that joon may be attracted to Daiki, but how did Daiki just turn to men like that after telling joon he was disgusting in the first or second chapter? Felt a bit forced in my opinion. I still finished it because I can't stand to start something and then drop it in the middle, but I basically just scrolled all the chapters of season 2 without paying much attention to the dialogs

This story is heavy with rape, fighting, and blood. It’s not for the lighthearted and I feel it’s safe to say it’s not going to be sweet and romantic any time soon.
It’s like Jinx on steroids and if that was too much for you, this isn’t your forte. The viewer discretion (as with any warning) at the beginning should be taken seriously as this will likely be a running theme. If that’s not an issue, enjoy. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

It’s been 13 YEARS. Can we put a cork in it already??? ╥﹏╥

I should have added that it was a genuine question rather than judging. You're not the first nor will you be that last to say that but I always just wonder, if you as a reader feel the story is dragging then why not just drop it.
Yeah, everyone is entitled to their own opinion but when you say things like that, it just leave one curious as to well " Why continue a story that isn't holding your interest anymore?"
I do agree the story is long but personally, when an author has laid out from the beginning a massive world and many concepts, wouldn't you feel unsatisfied if none or most of it goes untouched?
Naruto had me feeling that way. Again imo.

Totally get it- and thank you for clarifying (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ my comment was just me venting a little steam, honestly not really something to pick apart.
The way you felt about Naruto is how I feel about this and I just wanted to put it out there. I don’t hate it, I’m just tired and wanted to connect with anyone who might feel the same way.
To answer your question tho- yes, it would be unsatisfying, and yes, the author has done a wonderful job keeping the hype, but over a decade of seeing the story go on has me jaded and I’m eager for an ending to at least be visible in the horizon. In my opinion, 13 years ongoing is a stretch for any fandom.
Yes yes- Ashley possible kidnapping- we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it
but why is NO ONE talking about the insane plot twist that is Ashley not being Cinderella??? That all this is the epilogue for the real story and Daniel, the already perfect man that he is, is actually a reality bending half-human son of THE fairy godmother?! UGH I am in shambles, we glossed over that way too quickly and I’m so mad I didn’t let this marinate longer.
I’ll be back in another two years
there is a comment here that mentions that as a spoiler way before. its buried now, but i guess most saw it.
I didn't see it, give me more spoilers please, is Cinderella the queen mother?
Yup! When Daniel reveals that he knows she’s a transmigrator, she reveals what she knows about the world their in (the Cinderella story) which Daniel confirms to be the story of the Queen Mother
Making Leon Cinderella’s son and everything we had assumed up until this point null
How does he know, if he's the fairy's son??? Like,
if he's a native from the story? Or did he transmigrate in the baron's body...?
It goes down around chapters 110-125
He doesn’t inherently know that the story is a fairytale, just that the plot Mildred describes are toe in toe with the Queen Mother and his mother’s experiences. He’s 100% a native, but because he’s part fairy, he explains that he knows the person inhabiting the real Mildred’s body was wished into existence by her in a time of despair- making the real Mildred one of the key reasons she’s there and likely dead by the time she’d arrived in her body.
The translation is a little confusing by that point because they bring in this mechanical “wish granting” fairy replacement thing (you have to read it to know what I mean) but this is what I got from it
Ooh
Thanks for explaining
I'm worried for Ashley... dude did not see her like a dad would... guys... things are gonna be dark.
