Taught me one more time to never trust an omegaverse manga.

I actually preferred season 2 over season 1. I found season 2 a lot more engaging because we got more backstory, lore, and action. The pacing was also a lot faster, and I was a lot more emotionally invested in the outcomes of the characters.

Season 1 dragged on a lot. There were lots of hints at interesting plot lines that didn't satisfy. For example one side character was hinted at being up to something nefarious, but it turned out they just wanted to meet another character and had zero ill intention. It was such a wind-up for a super boring resolution of that plot line. Season 1 also attempted a lot of fluff, but some of it didn't hit and just made the plot drag on.

There was also a LOT of sex that was purely gratuitous and didn't contribute to the plot. It was to the point that I wondered if the sex was just filler because the plot wasn't strong enough to fill an entire season on its own.

The other big gripe I had with both seasons was how confusing the story was at times. There's a balance between over-explaining things (which makes the reader feel like their intelligence is being insulted) and under-explaining things (which confuses the reader). This definitely suffered from under-explaining multiple really important plot points that led to a lot of dialogue not making complete sense.

For these reasons, I'd give season 1 a 5.5/10 and season 2 a 7.5/10. And a 6.8 overall because I feel the backstory and lore in season 2 helped to elevate season 1 and the story as a whole. (For me a 5 or 6 is in the middle of the scale and means Average.)

Overall it's decent, and I would recommend reading it especially if you like the vampire and lycan tropes.

I want to emphasize I loved this story and the artwork.

But it was just too much…like a few other reviews have said this should have been completely separate stories in the same universe.

The 2 main couples of the second season were just not given the depth and time they deserved after dedicating a whole season to one couple.

Also I do love time jumps that go into the kids stories as they grow up (in the side stories) this usually really polishes the story and makes me miss it once it’s gone, However because in season 2 the focus was on main couple (from season 1) plus the two new couples it just proved to be too much for me. It would have been different if all three couples would’ve been equally focused on for both seasons.

Dragged dragged and more dragged

Honestly, this feels like it should have been three seperate series.

Season 1 is amazing. The relationship is sweet, it's well written, etc.
Season 2 comes with an over 20 year time skip. Instead of showing us the hardships the relationship from season 1 had to face, it just switches to new characters. Season 2 also tried to force in a third relationship with only a couple chapters and it ends up being way too rushed as a result.
Season 2 is also full of waaaaay too much information. The backstory of the lycans, the relationship with the vampires, new powers and how those work, a new future hierarchy as well.
It would have been best if season 2 was about what was not shown during the timeskip, and if spinoffs were created for both hwa's story as will as ino's.
Especially ino's. His was particularly heartbreaking but it was only given about three chapters overall and even his ending was melancholy. It just seemed unfair.

I'd give it a 10 if it was just season 1. But more isn't always better. Because season 2 skipped over what felt like important times, and then hurriedly crammed in two more couples, it hurt the story. Hwa's story also took long to get interested in, mainly because you don't care about him at all because you missed getting to know him first. So I almost got too bored to continue. It eventually picked up but then by the time it did it rushed everything to get it all finished.

So in all I'd have to give it an 8.
Tldr; season 1 is amazing and 2 tries to do too much and should have been a spinoff instead.

The first season was really great I loved it, but second season was a bit bland for me. I did not like the unnecessary drama and the same type of trope as the fist season. Maybe I would have liked it if second season was based on lee bin and hwa gok instead of their son. Overall it's good.

Besides the obvious love story as is expected in these stories, there is a background story that could not just have been explored satisfactory in just one volume.

The story not only revolves around the main couple(s), we also have important support characters that needed development, the science behind certain biological "events" in how and why they are possible, the psychological trauma of what they have gone through (death of a child, kidnapping, etc.) social pressure, and discrimination because they are gay, or they are from a different species, even the subject of how children are affected when they are from a same-gender parent household is touched and how they handle it. There is also conspiracy, action, live, and death situations, this story has everything!

I do hope they come out with an extra or two, I feel there are events at the end of season 2 that are briefly updated or mentioned, a bit more details would have been nice. The art is really beautiful, I personally like their eyes!

It started out ok. Hot vampire dude got really into cute Lycan dude. Hot sex ensues. Then some drama. Then a male pregnancy thing. It should have ended there imo. I was getting bored around ch.30+ so I skipped to the end. Apparently we get the son's whole story and love life too *sigh*.
