just came from rereading magic emperor
honestly it shares a lot of qualities with this one as far as clan building and war arcs go
if u like this go check it out!!
it’s a chinese manhua and a bit less serious but it’s pretty good
and the mc (my illustrious king zhuo fan) is the most devious mc i’ve ever seen (even more than lloyd…)
i wish i would go into a coma for a month so that when i wake up there’s 4 chapters instead of 1
so i just read spoilers of the ending
turns out they end up together. but before that, taekjoo gets r*ped a few more times by zhenya, who then kidnaps him and traps him on an island. on the island, zhenya is the only one taekjoo can rely on. so basically taekjoo gets stockholm syndrome and that’s how they end up together.
i know it’s kinda indirect, but fun fact:
saint joseph’s hospital was founded in atlanta in the 1800s. now, it’s apart of emory’s hospitals (emory is a renowned medical university and group of hospitals). so yeah, this manhwa mentions atlanta
what a great read!!
i love it when manhwa tell the stories of the main couple’s children
i think the plot twists were interesting and stuff but they didn’t really contribute to or change the story. like the fact that she’s actually a princess doesn’t seem to be acknowledged at all. i feel like it would make more sense if they considered putting her on the throne or something like that.
i love how this manhwa was done. the characters are all complex and there’s no stupid romance when everyone just falls in love with the fl. we also NEVER get to see the fl go back to her own world. and they also didn’t drag it on nor rush the end. very well done. five stars.
i hadn’t read this since the end of the previous season, so i just reread it. at first, i read the second most recent chapter (145) and i was giggling and kicking my feet bc it was so cute!! i was so happy to see penelope and callisto flirting. but upon rereading it, it’s definitely much more dark.
penelope is in a situation where she’s likely going to die in 2 days, and then to be betrayed and cut off from her only chance of survival? on top of that, she finds out that the og female lead is evil and can brainwash people, so now she quite literally cannot trust anyone, so she’s in a constant state of depression while being on guard.
and as for callisto, she knows that it’ll be impossible to raise him rate to 100% in 2 days, even if she accepts his proposal, because he quite literally told her he’s only interested in her because they could cohabitate and support each other, not because of love. and penelope knows that to reach 100%, it has to be feeling of love. she learned from elclis that the rate can be increased to 99% max through other emotions such as obsession (redish-black). and she doesn’t know which other colors will mean a situation like that.
and as for winter, i saw in the comments that some of yall think she’s contacting him to try to make him 100%, but she’s most definitely contacting him about the yvonne being the evil goddess.
so yeah, i get why penelope is so fed up with callisto right now and why she insists on rejecting him. she’s under some serious mental distress. and she’s right. that’s exactly what she should do with callisto. but, i think she should tell him about yvonne. he’s a reliable ally and would help her, but unfortunately, right now she only sees him as a dead end.
am i the only one who doesn’t like roman’s new design? i think he looked more mature/handsome/scary before. the expressions just don’t hit the same anymore
i almost LOST IT when yirim left for a SECOND TIME. like why are you making this so unnecessarily complicated???
