bookworm's manga / #meh(382)

Skipped around a bit, but my impression didn't change, weak FL that only believes in the original and never changes/is super naive, villains that feel very flat and 2D, tbh all the characters feel flat and boring, nothing is really fleshed out, they skipped the whole childhood friends arc and had tiny flashbacks which is like??? Why establish it without any info and then give the barest of tidbits, idk I didn't like it

Ch35 - Dropped Duke (most probable ML) is the most annoying character istg, a terrible father and partner and doesn't listen to anyone and is super easily manipulated. Sire he's split in 2 but if the other part is also aware why can't they do bare minimum of communicating and work together rather than dump everything onto someone else and then give up at the first sign of struggle

This would be so much better if they changed the setting/character's names and didn't try to butcher the original characters to this degree. Wanted to like it cuz the story is cute, but everytime they introduce a new god they genderbend them and make their personality do a 180 ugh

Ch16 - Dropped Started off alright, but just feels like incel self-insert fanfic. The characters are all so 2d and such... caricatures?? It's like everyone is painted to be incompetent and/or a loser bad guy except for the MC and FL (and then of course she's that mix of rich, pretty, smart but super naive with a sad backstory to boot) and then the age gap is a little awkward, find it weird how there's no resistance to his romantic feelings toward a minor as a 30yo. That last challenge with this new villain dude though ugh yeah made it completely clear that FL is not a person but only there for the sake of being objectified ew

Ch83 - Dropped Also really, they were just summoning her for succubus simping wow Hhhhhh already felt bad for lilith before, but damn mc is really a douche Bahahaha reunion time Lmao he's gonna eat his words Ch65 - End of Season 1 Tbh it feels mc is a little too op, feels like they keep inventing new power of x so that he can do everything, and it becomes boring quick + hard to keep track of, especially since there's only supposed to be 7 demon lords that he took power from And then there's a holy power? How the heck does that work from hell?

A little too op mc, lacking worldbuilding and character development, things just happen because plot, it feels like they're speedrunning the isekai tropes like a checklist

It's so flat i hated all the characters, especially the 2mls. Honestly feel bad for the kids' moms having to deal with partners that won't be honest about their own sexuality smh. And then the mls are all so forceful and assault-y and it's like oh it's ok cuz they liked it ew

Just another meh/very toxic bl https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/guide_to_raise_a_loyal_dog/

Ch15 - dropped None of the adults in this story actually adult. They need fcking therapy and Shou (mc) should not be that role for all of them, even if she is technically an adult on the inside. How is it that Gina is the most mature but even then trauma dumps her guardian's story on to mc without falco's consent? Like wtf is wrong with everyone gere and the complete and utter lack of boundaries and common sense? And everything gets swept under the rug so easily too which pisses me off sm istg
