pluviophiliac's manga / #♡(204)

…i CANNOT. he’s such a weird agent. never seen one as easily flustered as him before, shdkwhjsjajdhqjs. this cringe-fest is just TOO MUCH!!! (in a good way, tho!) i’m only seven chapters in and i can already tell that this’ll be a wild ride. edit: just finished all the available chapters and i’m in love. <33 definitely another new favorite. i’ve been sleeping on some really good comics lately, goshdarnit!!! — - — - — - — - — these were the notes i made while reading. thought they were pretty self-explanatory, so i’m just gonna go ahead and leave them here… ‘cause i’ve been lazy as fuck lately and i just don’t have it in me to do this properly at the moment, lol. either way, i’ve been thoroughly obsessed with this one ever since i first started out! man, i can’t believe it’s over. i’m really going to miss these guys. the smut was RIDICULOUSLY good, y’all. literally getting turned on just recalling it like the freak i am, haha. oh, and the character development’s been pretty damn evident, too! i quite liked hajun and shihyeon’s ever-changing dynamics. they were surprisingly wholesome together… and entertaining. especially towards the end! anyway, to sum things up real quick: THIS. HAS. BEEN. GREAT. no regrets. absolutely none whatsoever. i’ll definitely reread it one of these days, too! (side note: by now, i actually have. oopsie.) edit #2: LMFAOOO, I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY BROKE THE FUCKING BED LIKE THAT, SKSHDIQHDAKS. this is a first for me. like, genuinely. damn, son!!! must’ve been some real good sex. ;) i’ve loved those epilogue chapters so much.

i adore stories like these. so wholesome. ;-;

this shit is fucking wild and i’m LOVING it. edit: can season 2 launch, like, right now??? please????? edit #2: I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF SEXY AND FUNNY, Y’ALL. this shouldn’t happen!!! this shit just keeps getting better and better each chapter. kinda feels like i’m on an everlasting high, lol. (not that i’d know what that feels like, but it’s whatever.) this duo is just perfect. splendid. i love them together!!! and the art is simply gorgeous. i can’t see any flaws. none whatsoever. #blessed edit #3: just finished chapter 39 and i’m literally holding in my screams as we speak, lmfao. they’re just the best duo, my god. i love how comfortable they are with each other now, too! it’s just as kinky as it is wholesome. just get married already!!! everyone’s waiting. edit #4: it’s over… and so is my life. i’ve loved every minute of this one, truly. ABSOLUTELY A 10/10 RATING, ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. ALWAYS. i’ll definitely be rereading it at some point as well. if it’s not already obvious at this point: the smut is next level INCREDIBLE, seriously… the number of times i’ve used this shit as masturbation material is just… embarrassingly high at this point. it’s actually kind of concerning. am i a sex addict??? but anyway, it’s whatever!!! what a hilariously sexy masterpiece. so, so good. just know that i’ve absolutely ADORED these characters and all their wild interactions. it’s been a hoot. (that’s the understatement of the year.) wowzaaaa. <33 edit #5: all these bonus chapters brought me back to life, omfg. I. LOVE. THIS. STORY. AND. THESE. PEOPLE.

omgomgomgomgOMG!!! literally just finished ‘at the end of the road’ for the umpteenth time just a minute ago and noticed this by accident, i already know that my whole damn year has been blessed. ;_; edit: 17 chapters later and i’m still rejoicing. <3 edit: 20 chapters in and i can officially allow the ship to set sail!!! edit #2: A 19+ SIDE STORY IS COMING OUR WAY!!! SIGN ME TF UP.

AHHHH, SO WHOLESOME!!!! i seriously love these characters, lol. one of the few graphic novels i genuinely look forward to (and want to read ASAP) each week. and we’re blessed with new chapters every week!!! sometimes more than one, y’all. we’re so spoiled. but anyway, i adore them all. ESPECIALLY ‘the second couple’ or whatever i should call them, i just love their energy. or perhaps synergy would be a more fitting term? if you’re a fan, you’d know what i mean by that. hahahaha edit: so, we just hit season 3… AND IT’S BEEN UPGRADED TO A FUCKING YAOI, FAM!!! they just went ahead and hit us with a “cherry blossoms after winter” shounen-ai-turned-yaoi, you guys. but hey, y’all don’t understand just how unexpectedly turned on i am right now, sheesh. this just made my whole damn day. aaaand i need a shower. (mini-edit: went back and reread it later in the evening for masturbation material, heh. i’m kinda sick in the head for doing that to our precious babies, i know, but my GOOOOD, i just live for their chemistry!!! it’s so good and i’m so, so, soooo looking forward to this new season. surprise us, author-nim!)

this is pure magic. <33 more like dark magic, but magic nonetheless. spectacular!

SO FUCKING CUTE, MY HEAAAART. ashton owns my heart. <3 edit: i’m surprised i haven’t written any other notes given how goddamn OBSESSED i’ve been with this manhwa, sheesh. i seriously and wholeheartedly adore all these characters. excellent plot- and character development, too. <33 nonetheless, i hope we’ll get a couple of bonus chapters to finish things off! ugh, they’re just so adorable, the whole lot of ‘em. goddammit.

wooow... that was one beautiful story. first of all, i LOVED our two main characters—(and yes, i’m referring to daddy dearest)—whenever they spent time together. their relationship was borderlining on sheer PURITY, man. the care and loyalty they felt for each other by the time we’d reached the end of the story… it was so sweet, and even though their emotional journey might’ve been an agonizingly slow process at times, they eventually found solace in each other and grew into a true family. it was amazing to see. personality wise, i’d say they had originality and complexity and intelligence and elegance… and a whole bunch of other nice things, lol. athanasia and claude (and lucas as well, though, not gonna lie) must belong to a superior species of humanity or something, seriously. waaaack. (ugh, don’t mind meeee.) anyway!!! for whatever my opinion(s) might be worth, i also really enjoyed the pacing of this! it didn’t feel rushed or forced or ‘too slow’ or anything of the like at all to me. it had pretty excellent timing, i thought. an overall nice development and a subtle (yet progressive) layout. not a whole lot of the stereotypical ‘isekai drama’ happened in this manhwa—which was refreshing and something i personally appreciated! however, despite the lack of ‘events’, so to speak, i never lost interest. i’m actually quite happy about the fact that it was more focused on the emotional developments and the growing relationships between the characters (and similar aspects) instead of a more clear, progressive plot; like an obvious revenge trope or perhaps an all-consuming yearning for wealth or power. honestly, i’d like to say it was more lighthearted in that regard… but that’s definitely not the right word for it—especially since it became surprisingly heavy at times, and it felt consistently (and emotionally) intricate to me as well. i don’t know that expression makes sense to anyone else, but i can’t really find a more befitting word as of right now, sheesh. perhaps others would say that’s an overestimation, but i really did grow attached to these guys… and i for sure sobbed on at least one or more occasions, which is quite unlike my usual character when it comes to this genre. i don’t feel i would’ve done that unless the emotional buildup was there and felt authentic. since it was mostly centered around athanasia, claude and their slow-changing dynamic, the author was clearly able to focus on their father-daughter relationship a lot… and i think that shone through in the end. perhaps it shouldn’t have been all that surprising, after all. aaaand, despite the general lack of ‘events’, as i so nicely put it earlier, i still made sure to read every single update as soon as i saw one was available. to be fair, i suspect i might’ve ended up feeling quite bored with this if i hadn’t found the characters as interesting and likable as i did… but i obviously wasn’t, in any way, disappointed or frustrated with the final outcome! well, i suppose i could be biased… but that’s why you’re here reading this review, correct? (heh.) i might even come to reread this one day—simply because, once again, i loved this father-daughter duo and their slowly (but sweetly) progressing relationship. but hey, let’s not forget about my guy lucas!!! i’m actually quite fond of that one as well, lol. either way, i feel pretty content with the final conclusion we got, too! i think it was a smart way to create a (sort of) open ending. i’m sure plenty others would disagree with me, though… but who cares about themmm!!! although, despite of what i literally just said two seconds ago, i’ll still be looking forward to the upcoming side stories! i just hope they won’t leave us with more questions than answers. but you never know! doubt i’ll be unhappy about it, whatever it might be about. in any case: gorgeous, enthralling writing. otherworldly, ethereal-looking art. excellent, believable character development. perfect, balanced pacing… overall, i’ve absolutely ADORED this slow-paced, wholesome father-daughter relationship of theirs. genuinely—i even felt so touched that i actually SOBBED. i mean, what more can i say? 100% worth reading the whole thing, and i’d do it again. honestly, i probably will… and soon, too. #noregrets <3

bro, this is gonna be EPIC. one chapter in and i’m already wheezing, lololol. edit: i CANNOT cope with this awkwardness. my god, i have take mental health breaks every other ten seconds at this point. c’: #sendhelp edit #2: THIS THING IS SERIOUSLY FUCKING HYSTERICAL LMFAOOOO AHAHAHAHA I DON’T KNKW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF edit #3: just casually getting goosebumps every other second because of these two RIDICULOUSLY GOOD LOOKING MEN who’re both TOTALLY OBSESSED WITH HYUN!!1!1!!1!1! this lucky bitch… tch. anyway, wanna trade? i’ll take them off your hands if you want. <33

this one looks so good!!! can’t wait to start reading. edit: haha, this is funnier than i expected it to be! i’m thoroughly amused. jinmu’s such a savage, lol. i suppose living for 80+ years will do that to a person. what a boss ass bitch!!! well, anyway. keep it up, jinmu! you’re quite the character—so entertaining. i’m really digging this plot, too! i’m curious about what the final conclusion will be down the line. ^^ edit #2: HE’S SUCH A MANIPULATIVE, GREEDY LITTLE BITCH LMFAOOOO, I FUCKING LOVE HIM!!! edit #3: oh my god, this is AMAZING. i love jinmu!!! call me simp or whatever, i don’t care. daddy edit #4: LMFAOOO!!! just finished reading chapter 57 and i fucking wheezed hard enough to give me a coughing fit. this is excellent writing, truly. comedic genius. this guy… jinmu’s definitely a character, that’s for sure. would i want to meet him? NO. is he a good person? ABSOLUTELY NOT. but do i respect his ingenuity and tenacity? FOR. SURE. he’s so cunning in everything he does, seriously. i admire the shit out of him. this dude is so funny, i can’t even... i just can’t. edit #5: THINGS. JUST. KEEP. GETTING. BETTER. AND. BETTER. this cunning motherfucker gives me purpose. whenever i see there’s a new update, i click on it immediately ’cause i already know i’m about to be cracking up like a cracked up hyena on motherfucking CRACK. this is comedic genius.
