Look. This has been on my 'to-read' list for a long time. And it had over 200 chapters TLed. I really wanted to like this... [Edit: Apparently it's COMPLETE at ch 206. I just can't see this improving by then]
But I just can't. It has great character design. It has a couple of entertaining side characters, like Im Nari.
Most every character has some depth thanks to past trauma.
But.... it's just kinda... boring.
And the MC IS just very annoying. Not in an 'oh he starts annoying so he can develop' way. He's just not a good person, not interesting, constantly messes up. At one point when he decides to intervene in something I let out an internal sigh because I was certain it'd just get messed up..
You know when people say 'Why would the FMC be into him?' ... well this is very much that, but not an exaggeration. I know she has her own thing going on, but it seems ridiculous that she didn't choose someone else first.
Yeah I just... I gave it a shot cos I really wanted to like it. Role reversal, great art, character designs, cast that's given depth. But this bores me and I'd enjoy reading other series on my lists much more.
