ReviewRaptor's manga / #DO NOT READ(139)

My review will be short because there is legit nothing to adress here besides the obvious fact this is the type of 'deep' and 'cool' story a 14 year old horny teenager would think of when writing a self-insert fanfiction. And it's about as appealing too. The writing is below average, the main character just pitiful, the guy who just acts like a dog in heat is dislikable and unappealing in every way except looks. And the ending is just obnoxiously weird, rushed and bland. Making the already dislikable story even more dislikable. Even the smut scenes are not appealing. They look more like sketch practice for different poses, but not the interesting kind except maybe 2 in the entire comic. It's not worth reading tbh. Not even as jack off material I would recommend this because even those scenes lack any appeal. I hope that artist tries to make more comics, the artstyle is decent enough, but the writing needs ALOT of improvement.

I'll be honest this is very basic and bland, I just can't get into it or enjoy it. :( The MC is so shallow and basically just a typical 2001 ditzy highschool girl in the body of a 24 year old man, it's just obnoxious. The emperor isn't in love, he's factually mentally ill and the plot treats it as if that's how obsessive love/love at first sight (since childhood) is. Which it is NOT, in case anyone isn't aware for some reason. The art is inconsistent and each face is just copy pasta with some different sauce added, anatomy is also wonky and no standard can be found for shapes and sizes. To boot, the overall detail is bland, tacky if there IS stuff like jewelery and it all just feels like stock image type of designing, just to slap clothes onto them because they can't be naked. The plot itself is very predictable and not as interesting as I first hoped. While it DOES work as a comedy, the art portrayal of said comedy is too little and too bland as well. It would need much more effort on that front to be an actual comedy and work as such a piece, tho it is a good casual page flipper if you are VERY bored. But even then I care little for the 'politics' and the romance is just not existent. The romance in this story is simply: there is romance because the author says so/demands it at the moment. The concept of marriage laws to allow their relationship IS something new and interesting, but everything else is just not good enough to make me read more. It's not quite well written and not well designed when it comes to portrayal of comedy, so it's below mid-levels of ranking for me. Maybe the novel is better but the comic I would honestly not ever recommend, it's just too low-mid levels on all fronts and nothing special or interesting compared to even dusty old BL stories with REALLY predictable and cliche plots (which is sad tbh). I think younger/less experienced people who don't know much about good writing can have a total blast with this, but to seasoned readers I think this is to bland, too basic and too boring. Wouldn't recommend but check it out to see if you don't mind it as much. If you don't mind something simple and basic to flip pages when bored, you might still like it nonetheless.

I have a medium kink for this setup of a scenario, but this story honestly does a shit job with it. It's just unappealing tbh. I know what the author wanted to go for but it doesn't work for me. This is just the dumbest, most basic porn plot taken and acting as if it's deep, detailed and good. Which it isn't. XD It's not just the base scenario that is unappealing and causing an issue, it's either the translation or the writing itself. The unofficial was a shitfest that had ZERO to do with the actual dialogue but even the official translation doesn't make sense in the earliest chapters, going back and forth, contradiction what was previously said, etc.. The beginning of the story is lacklusterly written and completely half-assed which immediately makes me uninterested in giving this more of a chance. It's like a movie posting a shitty trailer online; ain't gonna go to the cinema to watch it. I know what the idea was, but the execution didn't work for me at all. This might be a good read for people who do not care about a good setup and intro to a story, just looking for jerk off material, but this doesn't do anything for me other than create annoyance. So I'm out. Sad to see that we finally get a military-type setting and the writing just ruins it. I'm starved for military setups, so this is quite the disappointment. :(

I am 3 chapters in and this writing feels like the lovechild of ChatGPT and a 14 year old thinking they just wrote the rough draft to an epic love story (but it's really just cliche tacky stuff we have all seen before). Sometimes i think it's the translations that are off and make it weird but I can't tell. So I think I'll have to wait for official chapters. As is, this isn't written well. Almost random at times (both in dialogue and panels and what is happening in them). Not sure if the translations are so off and typical localizer shennanigans at play that it seems weird or if it IS this weirdly written. It really feels like a rough draft, almost random at times like sidenotes scribbled at the corner of the page just randomly got thrown in as well. No immersion comes up for me personally. Hopefully we can get official uploads, otherwise I don't think this is the type of comic I'd really care for, except for page flipping. I am 8 chapters in and this writing feels like the lovechild of ChatGPT and a 14 year old thinking they just wrote the rough draft to an epic love story (but it's really just cliche tacky stuff we have all seen before). And I cannot tell if it's 'localizer translations' at fault or if the story IS written like this. (╯▽╰ ) EDIT: Read further and it only gets more random and more rough draft-like, as if someone collected common cliche moments and stitched them together. No immersion or build up, just a collection of happenings we have seen elsewhere, just that here it makes little sense. really not an enjoyable read or page flipper tbh. So I'll not bother further. Sadly. I really love these stepmother stories, so this was quite the disappointment. ╥﹏╥

This is the first time I have absolute ZERO interest in such a workplace dynamic story. And I usually inhale these by default. So that's a bummer. :( The seme was supposed to be a certain type of stoic guy but that somehow completely missed the mark in the appeal's department for me, the MC is generic and the workplace/job absolutely uninteresting or even unappealing. The job and happenings are simply not interesting enough for me to read dozens of pages or even chapters about regular work talk that has very little to do with setting up the characters for their dynamic or relationship. The first 7 chapters alone could have been heavily condensed and not lost any important detail for the actual story. The workplace abuse by that one cunt SO early on in the story is also not really winning any appeal points. That was really a turn off when reading tbh. :/ It's just not interesting on any front to me. Which is a first for work romance lots, I absolutely love those usually. But this one is just yapping too much and too long about the job which could have been condensed into MUCh shorter chapters. Not a fan of the drag and unappealing and very generic character personalities, but you give it a read and see if it might be your thing. It's not necessarily bad, depending on your standard for good writing or personal preferences, but I honestly think it's not good either. Mid, sure. But maybe that's just me. Give it a go and see for yourself.

I need bleach after reading this.

Wonky ass anatomy nonsense slop.

I'll make it short, so you don't waste as much time as I did reading this: - the MC is heavily dislikable and quite frankly stupid from chapter 1 already (feels often very Mary Sue-ish tbh) - the writing is nothing special and does a bad job many times - the shittily used trope of the mentally ill father is, yet again, seemingly only used to make him the hate-able male figure - the pace is odd - the character logic idiotic more often than not (also from the very start) - some stuff is not quite making sense (not sure if that is due to this being based on a novel and comic adaptors just cutting stuff away as they please) I honestly couldn't care less about this and the MC alone is reason enough for me to heavily dislike this. She's got no appeal other than being drawn pretty. That's literally it. And that's just not a good basis for a story. Give it a try. If you have seen these types of plots before, you are likely not gonna see anything new. If you haven't and you don't mind the issues I found or have lower standards than me in some of these things, you might find this enjoyable to read. it depends on the person.

Whoever is actually reading this shit because they find this fap-worthy: Please go get therapy, institutionalized or take your meds.

Review: Self-insert fap material, but shitty as a romance story.
