pluviophiliac's manga / #precious as hell(687)

this lady is a QUEEN. love her. the whole story is fire af. i really miss the old art-style from season 1, though… i felt like that’s what made the story particularly unique since it was quite different from what i’m used to. still, i’m going to continue reading! hopefully, the overall quality hasn’t dropped over these past 2 or so years since it first went on hiatus. (edit: also, i sped-read my way through the raws in about 40 minutes or so, so i kinda finished the story already, lol. i clearly don’t know all the details, though, but i feel like i understand the gist of it.)

another stan-worthy queen!!! ughhh, love her. and asher, too, obviously. the art is freakin’ gorgeous, the plot is cliché but intriguing, and the character development is great as well! it’s been nice seeing the both of them ‘grow up’, if you will… and to witness their relationship slowly develop and mature. P.S. these epilogue chapters are low-key keeping me on my toes, though. such a nice, innovative touch! edit: it’s been wholly completed now and i don’t know what to do with myself. <33 gosh, these epilogue chapters really hit different. it’s awesome that they were included! it almost felt like a different story altogether… or a side-story, if nothing else. in any case, i’ve lived every single minute of this. i’ll probably reread it (again) at some point later on as well! it probably won’t be for a little while, though. still, i’m happy with how things ended up for these guys. amazing character development and enthralling story line as well, i’ve really got no complaints. awesome!!!

that’s an ice queen right there. i stan her. i do enjoy the political aspects of it all, too!

ugh, i miss this. where are the updates?!

…why the hell hadn’t i marked this as complete yet? c’: anyway, it’s great!!!

damn, what a goddamn QUEEN. love it!!! at this point, i can barely cope with how adorable, amazing and admirable they both are. even more so when they’re together! FML. in any case, i can’t believe it’s over already, sheesh. i hope there’ll be some bonus chapters or something, that’d be amazing!

this is simply magical. gorgeous, gorgeous writing! i’m practically getting choked up every single chapter, i kid you not. such a beautiful travesty… i’m hoping she’ll pull through, but i don’t think she will. either way, it’ll be worth it. (what an excellent read, ugh…) i straight up feel like crying right now. karina deserves to have the whole damn world at her feet. meanwhile, milian’s trying his absolute best to give it to her, and he doesn’t even realize it himself yet. i can’t wait for them to come to terms with the fact that the BOTH of them have feelings for the other. it’ll definitely be devastating once it inevitably occurs (since this is a tragedy and all… and unfortunately, we all know what that means), but i could honestly ask for nothing more. <33 however things go, and wherever she might end up… i know i’ll be sobbing like a baby. for what it’s worth, i genuinely hope that they’ll get to experience a lot more of those happy, genuine and serene moments together. i know they will; i’m just sad and impatient and i’m already DREADING the aftermath of all this. i love and cherish them both. they’re such good people. i’m so glad they found each other. P.S. my god, i didn’t know i still had the ability to empathize this way. guess i’m still a human being after all! and, well, i suppose it’s a bittersweet relief. (better than slowly turning into numbness itself, aye?)

god, these sisters and their respective relationships are so freakin’ wholesome!!! loving the overall dynamics here. and i appreciate the fact that the ‘hardcore’ sister fell head over heels first and got all lovey-dovey with her hubby before ‘the main sister’ did. it wasn’t something i expected, but it was refreshing and a nice change of pace nonetheless! these couples, y’all… aaaand, as the great sandor clegane once said: “fuck the king.” i’m so happy he finally dropped the issue, my god!!! it was tiring me out like crazy. i’m not gonna lie, though—i quite liked his ‘change’ and the brothers’ final resolution. i literally thought it’d end in a bloodbath. so happy that wasn’t the case! since i’m more of a diplomatic problem-solver myself, this is 100% a win in my book. forgiveness and redemption wins. <33
