The Story of a Low-Rank Soldier Becoming a Monarch
Boss Bitch Baby
wow… this really is nothing like what i expected, lol. it’s pretty damn great, though!!! it’s a shame that the translations kinda suck, but the story itself is good enough for me to put up with it. heh. i’m kinda excited to see what’ll happen next, not gonna lie. this is such a toxic (but still weirdly wholesome) mess. i don’t even know what to think anymore. edit: ‘weirdly wholesome, weirdly toxic mess’ sounds just right for this one, lol. they seem to be happy together despite… um, everything…? ehem, despite all the shit they put each other through, so i won’t pass judgment on them, their dynamics, OR any of their choices. i mean, why would i? if they’re content, as will i be. god, manhwa’s desensitized me to violence and abusive relationships soooo fucking badly…! this would never fly in real life, at least i know that much… even for me. sheeeesh. 0.o edit #2: THIS FUCKING SIDE STORY NEARLY KILLED MEEEE. omfg, i love them. what a wholesome, toxic mess. <33 like, bruuuuh… i never knew what to expect reading this, that’s for sure. hahahaha
ALPHA
apparently related to noblesse!!! can’t possibly be anything subpar, then.
Weak Hero
…the fact that some dumbasses choose to behave this way, abusing and looking down on others for no other reason than physical and mental domination, thinking they’re all cool and ‘badass’ for doing so… is legit so fucking infantile i could barf, ew. i can’t take any of them seriously. don’t know whether to laugh, snort or cry at this point. perhaps i’ll just do all three. it fits!!! “lOoK aT mEeEeEe, i bEaT uP a tEaCheR aNd rOdE oN a mOpEd ‘cAuSe i’M sO gAnGsTeR!!! i’M sUpEr cOoL!!!!!” *cries in lmfao* (this wasn’t even an important part of the story, either. i simply used it as reference since it was a good example of just how silly some of these adolescent ‘men’ are behaving.) this manhwa’s so much fun to read, though! i’m getting a whole lot of nice, explosive dopamine boosts as i’m reading this. and i get them damn often, too!!! really, i didn’t even know one could read such violently graphic comics on webtoon! i’m pleasantly surprised, i’ll admit... not at all disappointed. go get ‘em, gray & company!!! edit: i’ve now reread the whole thing (i’m fully caught up at chapter 240–excitedly awaiting updates), and this is soooo much better than i remembered it being! not just that, but it just keeps getting better and more intense by the chapter!!! excellent character development, for one… great world-building… and amazing emotional complexity, too! there’s so much one can take from this. honestly, i figured ’weak hero’ would just be one of those typical school-bullying, nerd-turns-boss type shit… but it’s actually so much deeper than that. other than the incessant fighting, it’s mainly a story about loyalty, friendship, strategy, corruption… and we’re even starting to enter the realm of politics now as well! man, i can’t WAIT for gray and donald’s final fight somewhere down the line, lol. it’s definitely heading our way!!! there’s absolutely NO. CHANCE. IN. HELL. that our two geniuses with infinite (?) potential in both strategizing and martial arts prowess… won’t ever go head to head. there’s just no way. i have no idea when—or how—it’ll happen… but it surely will. i’d be genuinely disappointed if it didn’t at this point. i mean, the manhwa’s already incredibly action-packed, well-drawn and enticing… but that’d be some next-level storytelling if you ask me, lol. either way, this is an excellent read! seeing this through was definitely a good decision on my part, and ’m really looking forward to see how their story ends. :) edit #2: DID MY BOY DONALD NA SERIOUSLY JUST FUCKING DIE ON ME??? stop. please tell me he didn’t. :( he had some of the best redemption arc potential i’ve get seen in a comic, what the hell??!!! this CAN’T be it… i’m gonna fucking cry if it is. no, no, no, no, NO. fuck this shit, i won’t accept it. P.S. i know he’s technically supposed to be ‘the final boss’ and all, but i truly can’t see him as one. there’s way too much depth, complexity and background information to solely paint him as the villain when he’s literally just a broken boy with a devastating past whose mere existence was cursed by existence itself. fuuuuck meeeee. donald deserved a real chance to heal and find himself. :( he was never going to hide behind this ‘bad boy persona’ of his forever… it wasn’t real and i motherfucking saw that!!! any reader who actually paid attention to the development of the story (and its characters) would see that, too… and they’d feel equally as shattered as i do right now. this is genuinely so upsetting to me. i don’t even know what to do with myself right now. i was so looking forward to him and gray bonding and eventually becoming best buds… the vibes were there, the groundwork was there, and the redemption arc was literally RIGHT. FUCKING. THERE!!! not fair if you, author. you took away my favorite character. (ಥ﹏ಥ) …but still, though donald na’s chapter WAS closed near damn impeccably, i’ll admit. i couldn’t have asked for a better send-off for my favorite character... i’m just so upset and needed to vent. i wanted to see him thrive and find happiness so, so badly… STOP. i’m gonna need a minute to process this… or two. or two-hundred and sixty-three. whatever. ༶ඬ༝ඬ༶ (please be a dream, please be a dream, please be a dream, please be a dream—)
