This manhua/manhwa/whatever this is, reader, is quite the "okay" experience. I perused its pages in the year 2022 and thought to myself, "Wow! This artwork catches my eye!" Indeed, the art style is commendable, but, the character designs struck me as rather ordinary. Countless protagonists have sported white hair, while their love interests have black locks. Although this formula can work wonders if accompanied by solid story and character development, that, my friends, is where the main problem lies. The story is lackluster. There is no growth in the characters' personalities, and it adheres to the tired trope of a feeble princess (our protagonist, Garland) perpetually unable to defend themselves, constantly reliant on the prince (the dark-haired Duke) for salvation. I kid you not, not once did Garland exhibit an ounce of assertiveness. Save your breath, for the evidence is plain to see—Garland relies solely on the Duke's heroics. And let us not forget the incessant sexualization of poor Garland. Yes, as I ventured back through this manhua or manhwa, I discovered countless occasions where the black-haired Duke could not resist disrobing our protagonist, engaging in inappropriate fondling, and completely disregarding Garland's right to consent. Truly, a veritable "wow, fish bone” indeed (in a negative way). I am aware that much of the literary world in this app caters to, shall we say, the more amorous readers. So, if you seek a pathetic protagonist unable to fend for oneself, persistently rescued by their love interest, devoid of character development for any of the cast, set within an unfinished and abandoned narrative that is unlikely to see future updates, (yes, I know it reaches up to 80+ chapters in non translated version.) then, reader, this work is precisely tailored to your tastes. P.S. Upon revisiting this literary endeavor in November of the year 2023, I am compelled to declare that it continues to exude an egregious level of mediocrity that defies comprehension. Not only has the work failed to undergo any form of enhancement or rejuvenation, but it languishes in a state of abysmal obsolescence, with no foreseeable prospects of ever escaping its wretched fate. Kindly be advised that I have penned this elaboration for the sole purpose of apprising those inquisitive souls who may harbor a modicum of curiosity regarding the true nature of this manhua/manhwa.
