From the very beginning Diana wasn't fit to be a royal. She was inflexible and too narrow-minded. But she wasn't a lunatic or evil, there was no need for this change the manhwa did to her character. I think the ending she had in the novel fit her the best, until the very end, she was devoted to the dying king and then returned to the church. Originally she was a pure and righteous character who was very devoted to the poor and ill commoners, but even when she fell from the pinnacle, she didn't turn evil. These changes defiled the novel.
Eeeeh...I don't like this change. It is way easier when there is a god who personally gives an answer for all your insecurities. Reminds me on the movie Constantine, when the archangel told him "No, you KNOW that god exists! That's different!" compared to people who don't know but still believe in god's existence. In the novel, Hestia faced all her insecurities herself. And overcame them herself. Yes, she got some help from Helios but he only helped her to think deeper of herself and the whole situation. For me, it was more substantive than this.
Oh, Kanda's story. I really hope someone would update it or it'll get an official translation like Contrast.
First time I see a translator messing up with the pronouns like this. Even an elementary level English speaker can make a difference between I, you and he, can't imagine the reason there are so many mistakes in this...
I wonder why was there a need to do this part different from the novel. It's not bad like this, the novel was more angsty with a bigger focus on Hestia's lack of attachment to this world and Kael's panic of loosing her, here, he gives his reasons so Hestia doesn't suffer that long and they don't need Helios to solve their problem.
If you decide to translate, please, at least use the correct pronouns, this is the only hurdle MTL cannot jump right now, it's not a huge work to correct it...
The story is promising but I wonder, doesn't the artist have az editor to tell them how disproportionate their characters are? Compared to the heads, the shoulders are too small, arms and legs too short. I'm 174 cm and if I take the proportions of the artist, I could say goodbye to half of my legs :)
I just realized that Iku makes a short cameo in Fukyagaku-sei no Himawari
