World: the "vampire" set-up was interesting, a new point of view on a theme that was abused a lot over the years, but nothing really original btw. I found myself crying a lot, especially at the end I was a sobbing mess (lol) Representation of trauma: some of the side characters story are really well written and, with the art, you can feel their sadness and despair. Strong protagonist: the FMC is like the strongest in the world, and she's always improving, but sometimes felt like she's was even overpowered, like nobody can compare to her Incredible art: I looked at the panels for minutes because I was amazed by it, really incredible Overall I really liked it even if it was fast-paced, in fact sometimes is good that the story isn't dragged out, but it must not at the price of a good plot.
If you like a story with a badass female lead, this is for you, but you must also like lack of consistency and a rushed plot. That's how much of an impact it had on the story. It could have been no romance and only a dent of difference would be noticable. Just wasn't strong enough for me as a reader to see how their romantic relationship mattered. It wasn't that bad.It made sense why the female lead would like the male lead but that's it. I can assume how they came to love each other but it felt like through most of the story it was forgotten and then brought up again and relied more on attraction and lust and perspective of the readers. It like as readers we knew they were supposed to fall in love but I can't help but feel this was what we got as a result of the female leads loneliness and the authors forgetfulness. I mean the relationship and friendships felt natural but them liking each other I couldn't pin point were or when either character fell in love. The romance wasn't all too strong either. Dude was aware he was a wreck for ten years but only felt guilty cause he knew he blew his chances with the female lead. The side villians had clear motivations even if they were simple ones. He was luke warm and wasn't sure about what he wanted in the end. Also he justifies killing humans which was one thing but nothing ever justifies him killing the parents. It's understandable with the female leads development because she was emotional and felt betrayed but this guy hated the whole world and yet couldn't kill the female lead they knew they had no chance with after what they did. Like no matter how many times I wrapped my head around it he had multiple chances. I found them to be a problem because despite how much they were capable of they were hindered because they were in love the female lead? Yet they had an easy time taking out her parents who also showed him kindness. The reason why I couldn't bring myself to give it an 8.0 because of how the main villain was handled compared to the side villains who seemed to be more interesting. Giving it at least 6.7 excluding the way the the art was handled giving the story more depth atmosphere and left me feeling amazed. The emotional expression of the characters makes the story more believable and helps it feels more real. The author and her assistants did a very good job at capturing emotions such as loneliness.
It doesn't have the deepest story now that I look back at it but the way the story was handled is why it gets a high rating.
However the story took itself seriously and character development was handled nicely. You'll find characters boasting about themselves not too often but still the characters are very flirty excluding the female lead. But some things were dragged on for too long but was fixed with comedy. It was enjoyable and kind of funny and some parts were a little unpredictable. But why it loses points has nothing to do with the Mary sue part.
