Full Series Review!
Content Warnings will be for the entire series as a whole.
I started reading this in 2018 when the series first started being translated into English. I would’ve finished this 3 years ago but then the pandemic happened which understandably delayed the other volumes I needed. But now the wait is done and I have finished one of my favourite manga series. It feels great!
I’m going to read any story that involves a Monster/Non-Human and Human relationship. I love Monster Romance, and this is no exception. It is very much Beauty and the Beast inspired but less Stockholm Syndrome and way more Fantasy Racism. So yes, this is a dark read but it also has very lighthearted stuff to balance it out. I love this series so much, I’m so happy with how it wrapped itself up. I love the couple so much and I love seeing them develop into a stronger bond. I highly recommend it, just be sure if you need them please read the content warnings.
