Ending...

by TrulyDistreet

Rating: N/A

Truthfully when i started reading, it seemed as a great start/ But the end just didn't click for me. I'm not saying it was a waste, its was acutally a very enoyable read, just the ending didn't click for me, but the characters do have a somewhat realistic happy ending. I perfer more real tradegy story's, but happy endings are alright at times.

A shinning gem in a pile of stone... yet in the end it was nothing more than a stone

The author gave us a brilliant plot, every chapter a mystery will be unveiled only to be replaced by another one that will pull your deeper and deeper into the story.
She kept on pilling up a another dark plot with a sinister one,

The heroine's origin (Fallen Nobel).
Jeremy's family background.
A love affair between a maid and a nobel child which turned out to be an adult.
A fiance who turned out to be the nobel child's sister with personality issues.
A megane character with psychological issues after the death of his lover.
The brother's messed up family.
A potential love quadruplet happening in the future.
And finally a girl in an all boys school that is a very open to homosexual relationship!

The author presented us with a perfect setting for a tragic/dark story and unfortunately she pathetically failed to deliver it... The only thing I could think of the ending she presented us is that she herself doesn't know how to end her story after putting so much plot line in one series so in the end she lost interest in it.

I also don't get the point while Euan had to die, I mean if he was meant to die then the author have let him get stab during the struggle in the train. I also didn't like how Ray looked so much like Euan in the end, I feel like it's Euan in there rather than Ray because of the change in personality. Also the heroine's real name was never revealed. Well at least Ray and Gab ended up together.

Yes a 3 because I like the setting and some of the characters. The art "meh". The pacing (-_-). The characters, Gabriel seemed like an angel because the author seemed to think that all the females in Victorian period are b*tches besides the main star. The men are portrayed smart and yet they are easily manipulated by the women around them except Euan who is a gay and immune to feminine charms. The ending, try reading it because I don't think -10 is enough.

A masterpiece, but...

Okay, I am not going to repeat it since that's what everyone here has said. Intriguing, complex and compelling story, extremely beautiful art, great characters, but as you all know, the ending. It didn't have to be like that. It was too rushed and things weren't exactly explained in the end. More time should have been devoted, it would have completed it. But for those who love dark, beautiful stories, I recommend you to read this.

It was okay. I liked it at time and at times not. Someone people died for no reason. I wasn't even sad! I was just like wtf o_0 Tragedy okay if it leads to development. When I was done all I thought was "waste of time" =o=. I used to like gender-bender. Now I know just read yaoi. No I won't let this ruin GB. Yaoi is different enjoyment like shoujo mahou.

mixed feelings

LEE Hyeon-Sook sensei is really good in storytelling, and not only in illustrating pretty art in panels. She would wove a story with several characters, not like any typical shoujo cliche where the romance greatly center on the main charas alone. She would always manage to create a theme in her stories, and this time, it's victorian style. The only common theme I can see from her being in shoujo catergory is the school life aside from the usual trait in shoujo which is in love interest. I say this series is good but not the other two manhwa I read from hers. While the story ended somehow happy for the two main characters, it's not for the others. I think Eun and Angela also deserve to be happy. In addition to that, while the pacing was really good from vol 1 towards vol 6, vol 7 ended rather in rush to my taste too, just what others here said about the ending.

While I said that other characters have tragic end to theirs' stories, I also think that made impact an impression on me about their characters and on this manhwa, of which provoked me to have thoughts of the ending I would have like to see but, that's sensei for you. She managed to captivate her readers and eventually provoke their thoughts.

There some questions left unanswered to me like, who really killed Marianne. Did Gabriel went to America or did she ever leave London?

Truthfully, I was rooting for Eun for Gabriel. He really cares for her. Eun is mature but due to his maturity, he would sacrifice things even for his own happiness. He is really a good older brother. Ah poor Euan...even how his life ended.

Sensei why did you created that tensions? That tensions and atmosphere that gripped my heart whenever Eun long to reach out to Jeremy but couldn't. Ah...my heart. I had my hope for them but got crushed in the end. Eun, can I have you myself instead? :D

Boring, not really worth it

Hideously boring and frustrating. The plot doesn't seem to know where it's going. Maybe it's just because I'm not really a yaoi/shounen-ai fan, but I really couldn't get into this.

The ending was just as boring and anticlimactic as the rest of the shoujo and it will leave you scratching your head. Absolutely nothing is accomplished in this story. The whole thing felt like an excuse to write a boylove story about old England.

i have to agree with one of the comments here. all the volumes except the last one sucked! ending is rushed. 7 volumes isn't enough to settle all the things that happened in this manga.

the author took the easy way out of ending the story by having euan dead. and gabriel getting away. wtf!

non-satisfying end

Rating: 5.0 / 10.0

I was dissapointed. I expected so much more from this story. I knew from the beginning, that it was a tragedy. But the end was just horrible. Euan was for me the main character. It was tragedy enough that Jeremy didn´t end up with Euan. Euan died in such a simple and incomprehensible way. He should have died heroically. And Raymond shouldn´t have found Jeremy. Now it´s somehowe inadmissible, that they could live a happy life. Perhaps I am heartless. But it was really not the end I have wished for. I thought they (Ray+Jeremy or Euan+Jeremy) would die as a couple from eating this poisonous poisonous berries. :D Sorry for my bad english. I hope you understand what I wanted to say. :D
