I'm a sucker for gender bender and this one simply draws me into it. Ley is really beautiful (as woman and man lol) and I couldn't help feeling excited, wanting to know what's the progress. She started off alone and in no time her allies increased... they are attracted by her charisma.
I'm curious... how will the story end? |

If the first chapter or so was it's own manga, I'd give this a 10/10 but then the heroine becomes some character that I did not enjoy reading. I love strong female characters but her characterization is far from realistic. Granted, it's manwha and they go back in time but! I prefer to relate to heroines, no watch my character surround themselves with so much angst they don't know what to do with it.
On a good note, everyone looked fabulous.

| Lena Ha has this gritty determination that most of her sex in manga/manhwa seldom possess. Admiration doesn't stem from her beauty and grace, though it's worth mentioning, but more of her humbling forbearance and daunting strength. Enjoy a roller-coaster ride as Lena searches for the truth and establshes who she really is. |

I often felt as if I would have skipped a page or panel in this manga, but NO, I haven't. You have to watch out a little because of the fast pace and sometimes you will even have to go back and look who that character was again.
It's annoying, but the story is really good and the characters awesome. (especially the herione).
So it's absolutely worth the trouble.

I love the main character Lena/Ley she is strong, and is able to fight for herself, not like one of those shy heroines that are weak and helpless, and rely on the men

Man, I wish I was as strong and charismatic as this girl. (Meaning Lena/ Ley) By simply being herself; the androgynous enigma Lena unwittingly draws all sorts of characters to herself, much like the way a high burning flame calls forth many moths. Lena's character; her appearance earn people's respect, their admiration, and this is even before the whole "Child of Prophecy / Save the world" deal. Her silent and dismissing attitude can and is often mistaken for coldness, while we the readers know this to not be the case...Inside of this girl boils all sorts of crippling emotions, and with good reason. Manga characters have given up on life for lesser burdens; compared to the many that this engaging heroine has to bear. The imagery in the overall artwork is beautifully depicted and detailed. The men are absolute bishies. Lucien, Micheal even the villainous count is gorgeous *Insert drool here*. The plot is rich in it's own history, politics, warring tribes etc. And by the gods, I tell you everyone has an agenda, so there are enough side stories to shift the focus of off Ley from time to time. The action is thrilling and yes there is action, not simply limited to sword fights either. Ley is a total bad-ass with a sword, especially when she's provoked/pissed. So lets see...
☑Engaging plot-line
☑Breathtaking characters/ Bishies
☑Fulfilling action sequences/fights
Now, that only leaves a surprisingly no-nonsense, un-yielding, enduring, and determined heroine; predestined to be the catalyst at the center of it all....
You bet your ass Check.

such... beautiful.. men..
really interesting. i also like how you can't guess who she will end up with. and the setting in the middle ages is very interesting to set the plot in. it didn't really stand out in the beginning to me.. but now it does~ (hehe)
lena is unlike any heroine i've ever encountered.. and i like it! cold, bearing pain, strong.. sometimes seemingly lacking humanity. but it's there!
ohhh and i am TOTALLY rooting for michael. he's sooooo beautiful, and i love long hair. XD plus Spoiler (highlight to view) he knows lena is really a girl, and i'm pretty sure he really really likes her since he's following her and "protecting" her. at least that's my take on it!

Amazing plot and art ^^
The heroine in this Manhwa is unique and well thought out, unlike the typical shoujo girls so commonly seen these days.

I really enjoy this series; it's fantastic! the main character suffers a lot in the beginning (I wasn't fond of the beginning but not because she was suffering) and throughout the series. i vote for Lucien although that might change- only read 6 volumes...but...exactly how old is he?

| A definite recommendation to shoujo/fantasy/adventure lovers by arrha on May 4th, 2009, 2:25am |

This manga reminds me of Fushigi Yuugi with its time travelling-storyline, the destined heroine, and the bishounen-s who serves as the heroine's guardians/travel buddies. Thankfully that's where the similarities end. I guess one of the things that I like in this manga so much is the heroine. Like what all the previous comments say, she really is bad ass (e.g. she can really fight) and is a very 'layered'/complicated character. Aside from the heroine, the story itself really draws you in. The romantic undertones of the story is handled really well, you're not overwhelmed with fluff (I would even say that there really is no fluff except for some parts of vol. 1), and it keeps you wanting to see who'll end up with who. (which I applaud myself being a very picky shoujo reader) The art is fantastic to the point that I keep pushing the print-screen button on my keyboard to save a particular scene so I can make a graphic using it later. The art I guess also compliments the story pretty well.
This is definitely one of my new favorite mangas I'll be watching out for in Mangaupdates' releases page. |
