pluviophiliac's manga / #historical excellence(244)

ahhh, this is excellent. mercilessly graphic and sexually violent, that’s for sure—yet the actual art itself is just fucking PERFECT, man. literally one of the best art-styles i’ve ever seen through all my years of reading these joyous things. ughhh, i can’t!!! it’s so abusive and so goddamn toxic, but despite myself, i’m so, so enticed. i’d never condone rape or any other dehumanizing crime (well, unless it’s part of a play), but oohhhh, shit… i might just have to cross that line this one time. IT’S. SO. FUCKING. HOT. and yes, i’m well aware of just how detestable i am for even daring to say something like this. can’t help it! i’m a freak, lol. in any case, i do expect a great deal of character development to take form for this… ‘demon prince’ of ours, sometime down the line. we might still be too far off… heh. who knows? aaaand, hopefully, the bond between our two mains will start to strengthen emotionally soon. we already know they’re sexually compatible and all that… but the emotional aspects clearly aren’t there yet. i do love a nice redemption arc, though! looking forward to see how this’ll go down. truly can’t get over how beautiful the art is, though—it’s driving me crazy. ethereal, almost… wallpaper material, that’s for sure. uuuugh. you’re awesome, creator!!! edit: my god, this is such a hot, steamy, toxic freakin’ MESS, man... nonetheless, it’s got me dripping wet, and there’s absolutely nothing i can do about it. nor do i really want to, for that matter… i’m a kinky, amoral piece of shit—i’m well aware—but i can’t be bothered to care anymore tbh. who cares. (i’m low-key putting the niagara falls to shame with these floods down under, tho. slayyyy) edit 2: thinking about it, it might just be this epic, ethereal-looking art-style that’s driving me absolutely WILD. if nothing else lose, it’s definitely part of my intrigue… ahhh, how wonderful it is. <33 haha

this is most definitely a new favorite! such a hidden gem, my god. i absolutely LOVE everything about this!!! and our boy’s incredibly freakin’ likable and admirable and i’m so excited for this manhwa it’s freakin’ INSANE. 10/10 would 100% recommend. P.S. ahhh, how i’ve missed these power-trippy stories. <33 thank you, all you amazing authors!!! #blessed

whoa. this is fucking HEAVY, man… albeit in the best type of way. i don’t even know what to say. this is pretty damn dark; oh, so dark… but simultaneously, it’s so undeniably exquisite—genuinely enthralling writing. this is exactly what a graphic novel ought to be: art in the shape of words; a rare masterpiece. it almost has this… ‘dark maturity’ feel to it that just keeps pulling me further and further in. it’s intricate and pure and depressing and compelling and unique and delicate all at once and ughhh, fuck… the level of artistry’s strong with this one. not only is it beautifully complex, well-paced and so fucking well-written, but the art’s also out-of-this-world ETHEREAL… even my hollow heart feels heavy at this point. whatever the case: ’twilight poem’ deserves so much more recognition than it’s currently receiving, and it sure as hell deserves a lot more than a couple of nice words from me. the overall quality’s definitely not something one comes across every day… knowing that, there should be much more high ratings for this; much much HIGHER ratings. so much depth, so much emotion with these characters… i can’t stress this enough. and i CANNOT understand why it hasn’t gotten as much attention as i feel it’s earned. truly, genuinely striking. my emotions are all over the place right now. this is art! i wish there’d be a side story somewhere down the line, though. however much i appreciate the ending, i was informed of how lacking the manhwa’s ending was compared to the novel’s—which is somewhat understandable, now that i know the circumstances of said rushed ending to some degree… but i also won’t mind if this really is the end. i’m just so happy for soru to be at peace, honestly. and even more happy that she got to be with yato! ughhh, i love this match. good for them. <33

can’t wait to immerse myself in this one. i’m getting RIDICULOUSLY horny just from briefly looking at those photos down below. like wtf. i’m starting to suspect i’m a sex addict or something… can a virgin be a sex addict? c’: edit; wait, it’s brothers without a tomorrow?? no wonder the art felt familiar!!! omg

ohhh. definitely an adequate take on the whole ‘historical-eastern-asian-martial-arts’ trope. it’s pretty good! would i say it’s ingenious writing? no. will it make it onto my list of manhwa favorites? it won’t. however, i definitely don’t feel like it’s a waste of time or anything of the sort! still, i doubt i’d choose to reread it based on what i’ve seen up until this point. :) but hey, who knows? the tide could always change. it’s happened before! P.S. i AM looking forward to the day when he’ll finally be able to get his revenge, though. ^^

i can already tell that this one IS GOING TO SLAAAAY. same author slash artist as the one(s) who wrote “mayday mayday”, so i’m already thoroughly excited. <33
