eishin's manga / #Drama(36)

It ended so abruptly... I might change the rating if we get side stories. I enjoyed this when it started, it was cute. But it started getting a bit frustrating around the middle. It's not bad but I've definitely read better stories, and even the smut was a bit meh. There were a few ones that was hot and the art is fine but maybe I just got burned out with the plot idk. If I revisit this again one day, perhaps I'll figure out how I feel about this story.

The plot is ass, which tbh I guess the title did say it all. I skipped through most of the drama because I wanted to know how it'll end and I'm actually glad I just skipped past. Even the dialogues tend to flow unnaturally, so it really broke my immersion for the 'angst' that I actually didn't skip.

Both leads are really freaky... also Youngtae (seme) thought that Daehyun (uke) was very plain looking upon first meeting (he was a playboy before going to the countryside). He fell hard, though, so that's fun. Daehyun knows what he wants too, it's so funny that he just goes for it haha, a very proactive virgin indeed.

Dropped. It was cute, until Tita grew up and all the romance stuff started showing to the surface. It would've been nice if they stayed as a mother and son, their relationship was so wholesome but then it got wasted. Initial premise was nice, a pity really. If it was going to head to this direction, I wish the author didn't establish Clete as a mother figure in the first place, or maybe just make them the same age then they'd grow up with each other but still keep the immortality stuff for the FL if they wish to do so (seems like good angst material if you ask me). The reality of the ML was definitely a hard pill to swallow that I decided to just throw it up. Gave 2 stars because I genuinely liked the fluff at the start of the story. Now I shall gaslight myself to have selective memory and pretend that the romance never existed in the first place.

Dropped. I've tried to power through this multiple times but I always end up loosing motivation and moving on to reading a different series instead halfway through. It doesn't even have that many chapters but it's just frustrating, because the plot is built upon unnecessary drama. Yoonsoo's character in particular confuses me, her powers seem really OP but she doesn't actually use it... why? I could go on and on about every character about plot holes like this but I don't even have the motivation to exert that much effort for a review.

Jaewon (omega) got sold off by his father to be Joonhee's (alpha) partner because of a business deal. It's played off as a comedy but the problem is that Jaewon isn't the type to settle (i.e., mostly spent his time having flings with alphas) while Joonhee is an obsessive alpha who pretends to be a green flag to fit Jaewon's preferences. It's an alright read, I suppose. Honestly, I didn't enjoy it that much because Jaewon immediately tries to cheat a month after their wedding. I get that Joonhee forcing him into a marriage isn't great either, but any kind of cheating plot point makes me uncomfortable (even tho Jaewon didn't actually go through with it because ofc Joonhee had a tracker on him ). Overall, it's a really shallow story. I think it's more of a pornhwa and the plot is barely there, things just happened for the heck of it. At the very least I was hoping to see what their kids look like but we didn't get that either :'(
