ReviewRaptor's manga / #GORGEOUS Character(s)(756)

A simple smut comic with a bit of a nice story. One could easily make this a longer, more detailed comic tbh, there is plenty potential for that! It does what it was supposed to but didn't overstay it's welcome at the risk of feeling dragged or not well written. Which I think was a good choice instead of having another 50+ chapter fuckfest around. Art is quite nice, especially the chibi art is lovely, tho the overall story could definitely have done with some more detail and a few more chapters to make it better. Just so we can get a bit more immersive on the emotions side of things. ML especially would have benefitted from this. Dropping hints like glances and blushing and whatnot before having them bonk. To make us slowly realize something's up. I'd even have welcomed just reading about other characters around them too. Despite me not really liking that usually. XD But the idol x bodyguard setup IS very nice. Give it a try, it's something simple but still decent I'd say. Nothing deep or grand, but a good read if you want something quick to spend some time on. :)

The falling in love fell a bit short and felt too emotionless in a way, but all in all I really love this!

This is definitely a decent read. Reminds me of the typical stories I grew up with that shaped my like for more realistic and detailed stories rather than blushy shoujo-girl-but-it-is-a-boy-instead stories of quick, random romances I constantly read as a newbie. XD Good art, no overdone and elongated drama tropes, all characters are detailed and likable while still having flaws to them. And the stories themselves are interesting as a setup. Tho I think it could have been nicer to give both stories more time to develope. Sure, the last one was likely more of a quick idea so it ended in a oneshot, but the first one could have definitely been longer. Mind you tho, that doesn't mean it's really rushed! It's just not as detailed and slow burn as it could have been made. All in all a good comic to read, so I'd recommend giving it a try. :)

I think the base story is good but the execution is just really lacking, it feels too random. Maybe with giving it some more chapters and emotional detail it could have worked. Or maybe by making it more comedy-focused. That could have also shifted the story for the better. This just felt too random as it is now. Do like the base idea tho. I think showing an orphan turned criminal and someone who's concerned about them and tries to chase them down to give them a normal life again is a really neat concept. There's plenty of potential with that sorta setup.

No unneeded drama, characters that feel realistic and a perfect fit for each other and the overall details are just right. Not too much bonking, not too little, plenty of life details but not too much to get boring. Definitely a great read. I would have loved more chapters but it's great as is! <3
