Im intrigued by the story but it's been 19 chapters and I still dont really care about any of the characters.
The romantic development btwn Killian and Mertensia also feels forced to me....like when she asked him if he was ok and that whole 'Sebastian don't be handsy at the ball dear' thing obviously scream see guys?! He's totally falling for her!!

Like I feel bad for our baby Nine but that was too funny lol
Also who else got Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun flashbacks during the firework scene. Poor Nine is gonna end up with endless botched up confessions just like Chiyo. I see it already Nine confessing and Melissa just assuming it's a friendly "like"
I loved the art. The story was very meh. It's something we've all read before. Person A likes person B. Person B is oblivious until jelousy strikes and then the ' damn I don't want anyone else to tap that' hits and we run into the sunset.
Look I love my tropes but they either need to add a twist or make me love the characters. This did neither. Madoka doesn't have a personality. Literally all I know about him is that he is in love with Tamaki and that he's hot. All I know about Tamaki is that he's supposed to be a good guy- and that's really just from that random dude saying how Tamaki is always helping people and from Madoka's rose tinted glasses.
By this point I've made peace that a pretty big chunk of BL will have forceful tops due to author's fantasy/culture/preference so whatever floats their boat right? they're the ones that created this and aren't forcing other people to consume it. Honestly what made me the most uncomfortable was Madoka being so obsessed with Tamaki and how unhealthy that is in IRL relationships.
