MMedea's manga / #Royalty(16)

Ch 95 - end of epilogue Thoughts: - the main strength is how it handles serious matters (abortion, abuse) - the art style is so distinctive which is a treat - love the relationship between the prince and his parents, for once it’s not a simple oh they were evil - shorter and more contained that most historical romance manhwa which is not bad

Dropped CH 42 - bad ending

CH 96 - we got rid of Lariessa and the translation decided to go wildly aulic on me

CH 94 Main Story is Over - a bit of wasted potential here especially on the world building part - the whole home country part of the story never got fully explored - same for the magic/tower part, it was resolved very quickly - the villains are top notch though, and also THEY ALL DIE and don’t get forgiven - WELL HE AIN’T GETTING ANY DEADER! - DIANA MY GIRL poison that fucker! - the romance is mid, and the side couples are basically nonexistent - the beginning is super compelling and the FMC is really cool

CH 75 - Lauv protection squad - The mother being a 3D character who gets to fuck up sometimes is so important - Lyrica time skip when I’m begging you for adult Fjord - Dark skinned Male Lead you rare beast

CH 101

Ch 85 - truly the hottest male love interest I believe - her and her brother’s relationship is a highlight for sure - unfortunately a lot of it is sitting in a room talking about witches - kinda failed at the tragic villain backstory for me - but immediately redeemed itself by making the ex actually evil and not just brainwashed

FIN - this is insanely good - truly redefined the standards for fantasy bl I’d say - the political intrigue is great and there are stakes especially in part 1 - part 2 getting explicit content is a reeeeal treat let’s be honest
