Plot/Story
An excellent plot, very instructive and indicative, although the ending seems to me to be somewhat blurry and crude. This manhwa tells us about the wondrous, beautiful, cruel and dangerous world of modern witches, moreover, not in a figurative sense (malefic women who dirty everyone with the human powers of mortals), but real witches, that is, over women and over creatures in human bodies. They know how to mix highly effective potions, as is customary, from unusual ingredients. They know how to release clots of destructive energy generated in their biofield from their hands. They know how to walk through walls and even ... create people out of nothing. With all this, they are beautiful and successful, they work in cool, high-tech companies in high positions. They are also ... prone to sexual perversion. The tragedy of the two sisters depicted in this manhwa is terrible. In a short time, to lose both your beloved mother and your beloved pet - and even at the same time become villains in the eyes of your own father ... God forbid anyone such a childhood, oh-oh. It is difficult to advise something to their daddy. He was clearly in a state of nervous breakdown or passion, since he began to treat his daughters so aggressively, but ... Was it not he who, by his violence against two young women who, in fact, committed an act of self-defense, gave rise to all that villainous in Hwa Yong's soul, how did it manifest itself already in the first chapters, and hardened it to such an extent ... that it became completely furious? And she began to use almost uncontrollably in the future the flawed power of her gift of God (and after all, the witch's gift is still God, and if the witch uses it for good, and even disinterestedly, then I have no complaints about such a witch - forgive me, but I believing liberal) Isn't this a lesson to all villainous dads around the world? .. What kind of monster, filled with what power of hatred, can grow out of a little girl beaten and humiliated by her father? ... It's just scary to think. Thus, trying to entertain us as much as possible with erotic, romantic and humorous (there is not so much humor, and it is rather black and misanthropic) with pictures, P.P and Son Won, in general, are trying to inspire their readers that love you will not drink, and you will not bring up an ashtray. By the way ... It seems that all this bloody and hard prequel in the second season hints at the difficult childhood of homosexual children in heterosexual families, really. Well, now about the ending. I am disappointed. Guys, I'm really disappointed: 50+ chapters of great sex, brutal violence, frank kissing, cool fights - and such an unfinished end. And so - for the umpteenth time. Well, the authors of the manhwa, well, why do you, all (almost always) not have any endings? The ending had to be done like this: Ryu Si Young brings Hwa Young to tears, but gets stuck in her and leaves his body forever. Yoo Bin, filled with doubts, manages to add Hwa Young's tear to the potion for Eun Ha Ya, and runs rather to his beloved to restore her memory. Eun Ha Ya drinks the potion, and immediately remembers everything, she has a terrible tantrum. Yu Bin forcibly calms her down and promises to love her more than Ryu Si Young. Eun Ha Ya agrees and they have sex to celebrate. Meanwhile, Ryu Si Young continues his metaphysical life within Ryu Hwa Young. They are happy together, pleasantly spending their subconscious days in a comatose state, resigned to their past and living in joy and peace with the images of their mother and father, as they knew them before all their misfortunes. (hmmm, I'm afraid that in this regard, the authors will probably want to raise the traditional hentai topic of the relationship between daughter and mother) Thus, Ryu Si Young sacrificed herself for Eun Ha Ya and found happiness with her sister. Of course, Eun Ha Ya will again cover Ryu Si Young with all possible Korean swearing for the fact that she (Ryu Si Young) again decided everything for her, but such an ending will be very in the spirit of the best examples of modern European auteur cinema, although, of course , and sad enough.
Characters
Eun Ha Ya:
A pretty designer with rather large breasts and a long, sensual bluish hairstyle, with two small strands in the front, on the collarbone and shoulders, as is the custom of many authors of the manhwa. And what, what kind of beauty, sweet. (a brunette, probably, or a brown-haired woman - or maybe a dyed or a former punk?) A pleasant, good-natured face. Boyish style of dress: trousers and tight jeans, jacket and shoes Marty McFly. In general, good-natured and friendly, but if you get it and press, then frenzied and hysterical. A bit idiotic sometimes ... It evokes sympathy, a desire to substitute a vest. Oh, and the poor thing is she: at once 3 witches pounced on her, and even in such a short period of time ...
Ryu Si Young:
Attractive, showy, but not very pretty girl. Long red hair brings back memories of C.C. Catch, Blondie, Cher and Donna Summer - and other famous long-haired women from the 70's and 80's with similar hair styling. Tall, slender, with normal (I would say, small) breasts and long legs. A kind, pleasant face. I like her smile at rest, but in anger, she's just the devil, huh. Perhaps, rather a positive, not a negative character (although, with the elixir, she's really a devil.) As soon as I saw her in the first chapters, I immediately understood: well, she was just stupid, well, she gave Eun Ha Ya a potion to drink for fun. In about the same way as teenagers put sleeping pills or drugs on girls in order to have sex with them. So she seems to be a normal woman, she conducts business responsibly and assiduously, she is in solidarity with other women in the struggle for their feminist rights, and for Eun Ha Ya - just a mountain, even against her dear Hwa Young, her sister, she can go , uh. It evokes sympathy, encourages pity, although, of course, for this ill-fated elixir she also raked it all in the first place. How can you not recall the famous reggae hit of the Russian boy's trio "Inveterate Fraudsters": "There are different girls - black, white, red - but everyone equally wants to be fooled into something." By the way, Ryu Si Young is just white-skinned and red-haired, and often dresses in black. An interesting contrast ...
Ryu Hwa Young:
"Why did you get your hair cut, you wicked man?" - I just wanted to ask this character in the bass voice of a male actor in a restaurant from the Soviet feature film "The Diamond Hand" during the reading of the chapters of the entire second season. S-s-s, what kind of hairstyle she has in the first season: original, asymmetrical, sexy, and even red (or a little blonde), and even long, ah ... How did it happen that she cut it under boy at all, huh? Well, by the way, this is her business, of course - you shouldn't blame her for it, but ... Nevertheless, I have already caught an interesting feature of the genre: in almost every manhwa, one of the characters must have a haircut like a boy, apparently to imitate its emphatic masculinity and alpha self, or something ... But what I love Asians so much for is their craft of assembling high-quality crazy villains in their action and fantasy products. The villains of the creators of anime, manhwa and Asian games are almost always frostbitten psychopaths and madmen. It is clear that many authors who create anime have read a lot of comics about Batman at one time, because there are more than enough crazy villains - instead of prison, they are immediately put in a psychiatric hospital. But this is how the mad villains have taken root so well in Asian culture, with its Buddhism, feng shui, self-improvement and love of nature, I do not directly enter. What is this crazy doctor from Sailor Moon, who baked infernal women in his miracle microwave ... This image so sunk into my soul that I recently had a nightmare with his participation. And, to be honest, it was so terrible that I thanked God that I woke up ... (this season is perhaps one of the scariest in that anime, along with the story about a talking tree that gives birth to people). But now it's not about him. Hwa Yong seems to be one of those women who, after experiencing abuse in childhood or adolescence, began to perpetrate it against others in adulthood. Of course, sometimes she is tormented by doubts, but, basically, a woman she is a fire and rarely thinks about the consequences of her emotional attacks, so she scatters magical deadly rays to the right and to the left. Of course, the fact that she took responsibility for her sister is commendable. But, at the same time, she also turned her into an object of her erotic adoration, which already smells of perverted incest, for which high-flown phrases about protection and well-being are just awkward excuses with an understanding of the flaw in her position. Oh-ho-ho, how I laughed at her when the youngest tricked her in a magical way while trying to have sex with her, heh. Yes, the witches' jokes and jokes are very peculiar ... Another thing is that, judging by this manhwa, the Korean witches do not erase memory well, because all the same, the memories of their "patients" return after a while through dreams and random associations, otherwise I would have turned to them in order to forget something forever. By the way: the episode in which Hwa Young erases Si Young from Eun Ha Ya's memory, in my opinion, deserves some kind of award - great done ...
Om Bora:
A sexy character with a completely "gone roof" on a sexual "soil" ... Om Bora should be studied by psychiatrists and sexologists, physicists and chemists should describe it, biologists and physiologists should do it. Because this character is unrealistically cool and, perhaps, by right the most noticeable of all in this manhwa, because it is necessary to be able to portray a lustful woman who is so sexually anxious that she is even able to satisfy herself. I expect that Boraism can become the same scientific term as dombiism in Dickens and Mowgliism in Kipling. For a woman so obsessed with sex that she is ready to temporarily get a job specifically in order to rape someone for her own pleasure should be called that way from now on. In addition to the rooftop and the ability to be cute, Om Bora lives with taste, eats erotically, and during sex she is just an insatiable beast. I am truly sorry for Eun Ha Ya for running into her and Om Bora getting kicked by her for the cause. And so, of course, a pretty woman of European appearance, however, her eyes are simply terrifying - red and spiral. As for the episode where Yu Bin shot her, you know, I somehow lacked realism. Yes, I understand everything perfectly: the author of the graphics in this manhwa found it unpleasant to draw in detail a sex bomb, riddled with many bullets and bleeding (and what, it's a pity somehow, "and I drew it, drew it&quot😉, but in his last shots, Om Bora resembles a washcloth (in the literal sense - a tool for washing or cleaning in everyday life), rather than a wounded human female, pierced by numerous shots from a pistol. Yu Bin didn't shoot her with a shotgun? .. Or maybe explosive bullets?
Yu Bin:
A beautiful and brave killer girl, with enchanting lilac or violet eyes (which are simply brutally beautiful in times of anger), a nice vintage dark hairstyle, a masculine style of dressing and ... a bad temper. Oh, I sense that for Eun Ha Ya Yoo Bin will be the same owner and exploiter as Hwa Young is for Si Young, heh. Oh, how she molested her, oh, how she threw her during intimacy ... "Play, beloved hormone" just ... This young woman has testosterone for a couple of mature men. But, nevertheless, she is clearly a good person and seeks to help people, although, of course, the law is clearly not written to her, and she apparently works for a group of Christian or Buddhist fanatics. She is very hot-tempered and nervous, but at the same time very caring, loving. Despite its tough internal program, it has that special, Western European nobility. And it encourages her to express a chivalrous, respectful attitude towards the enemy, which has certain virtues in her understanding - therefore she does not kill one of the sisters, but cooperates with her. Although, at any opportunity, she is rude to her, as if a Soviet KGB chekist from the KGB to an intellectual under interrogation, in bright light in the face.
Drawing Style
Background Graphics Quality:
The use of three-dimensional models, Gaussian blur (or non-focusing of distant shots) and various ways of displaying plasma emitted by witches from their biofield, at a fairly good level, but ... some three-dimensional models have very strong polygonal edges, which betrays their "proletarian origin ". For the fact that the author everywhere saved on TurbooSmooth and OpenSubDivs in 3D Studio MAX, I rate the graphics of this manhwa at a below average level. But, otherwise, hand-drawn graphics are great here. Drool, snot, tears, female ejaculation are drawn in such a way that the author of the graphics clearly could not do without personal experience, heh. Sex scenes deserve a separate lesbian pose pack for RenderErotica. The kissing scenes were the same, although the plan was often too close. The lighting is great too: soft shadows, crisp shadows, global illumination, ambient lighting, sunbeams and aura from strong / multiple lights all look great in this manhwa. Blood, flesh, and the violence that exposes them are portrayed as frightening and sickening, as it should be. True, the author of the graphics depicted this Cerberus, who bitten the beloved dog of the sisters, painfully demonic, such completely black and at the same time aggressive dogs are rare even on my street, where there are a lot of dog breeders. Normal, in general, almost normal. But, to be honest, this reading (and spectacle) is not for little kids, and even more so, not for cowardly adults - only for hardcore lovers.
Character graphics quality:
Each character in this manhwa is drawn with loving detail. These are not some primitive sprites from "Final Fantasy" for the SNES, but attractive female bodies very believably worked in various places. The skin naturally (albeit stylized) stretches the bones or forms folds. In places where the characters were injured, of course, one should not look for special anatomical correctness, since such frames are drawn with noticeable frenzy and agitation. But with the places in which the sexual characteristics are located, everything looks more believable ... And although I did not see the open vagina here, I admired all kinds of beautiful female breasts and nipples here in abundance. The hairstyles are also well-defined: they are really beautiful European hairstyles with attractive styling, making the characters even more pleasing to my heterosexual eyes. The peasants, by the way, are also well drawn, but, as it seems to me, the male characters were drawn here by a woman, since they are all some scoundrels and perverts, whom I really want to beat and swear for their dirty tricks and pranks ... Well, this is in full compliance with the Manichean-feminist ideas about them (which are not always false, I admit as a man). Yes, and here's another thing about the characters from this manhwa. I didn't understand something: why do they all have solid iPhones, huh? Samsung their Korean blessed where? Here's a strange thing: do ordinary, real South Koreans have iPhones instead of Galaxy?
Enjoyment
I don’t have enough bad words to describe how good this manhwa is ... It’s just one of those positive emotional evaluations, when bad words (in my native language) mean approval. A very, very instructive story. This is what can happen to you, dear ladies ... If you lie to those you love and give all sorts of intoxicating drinks to those you love. I really hope that this manhwa will set every alcoholic on the right path, and its translation will help to enlighten and instruct the Russian "fair half" as well.
Overall
Despite the overall high level, the background is of a rather low quality (very ribbed polygons on the objects, stick out straight), the behavior of some characters is sometimes incomprehensible, and the ending did not satisfy at all, only puzzled and outraged. But well done, of course, well done ... Epic and erotic, and so instructive - I praise. I read for a month, 2-6 chapters a day. This is really a very rude, cruel, bloody and slobbering sight - I was just shaking with fear every time I turned the next page. I read for an hour - and for an hour I was shaking, although I do not have a corresponding illness, and the room was warm, light and quiet. In general, to be honest, this manhwa is 25-50 percent terrible (although, of course, there are not very many grubs and dismembered ones here), so think a few times before buying it. Not for the faint of heart. By the way, I noticed here ... The title of this manhwa has 2 capital letters, not one, heh. "Elik Sir" or "Sir Elik". A clear hint, in general, of dominant alpha females and rude treatment of females at the bottom of the hierarchy in this manhwa ...
