Fantasy regression/rebirth bl manhwa with fairly decent plot and pretty art.
Actually it reads more like the typical straight romance or villainess manhwas out there, even the MC and ML's looks are quite generic (especially Carlton lol, he's so familiar, the hot and dark-haired ml types in every romance manhwa) BUT I enjoyed season 1 nonetheless.
The atmosphere is lighthearted and I love the silly interactions between Louison and Carlton. They went from being mutually distasteful and cautious to slowly gaining trust and understanding of each other as they spend more time together.
Likeable MC and ML. A slow burn romance with mild enemies to lovers trope. It's cliche. A pretty average story but I'm giving this a 4 star rating in consideration for the lovely art and my overall enjoyment. The novel however, is a different case. It's also worth noting that the events following Louison's regression feels natural and realistic and I honestly prefer it that way unlike a lot of isekai/rebirth stories with ridiculous
character changes or over-the-top transformation.
Hopefully there won't be any long flashbacks to delay the story's progression in Season 2 but I guess we'll see.
