The art is BEAUTIFUL and I really loved some of the characters (like Hera and Hermes). There is a lot of sexual content (including sexual assault and one instance of r*pe) but that’s not too surprising since it is a take on Greek myth.
I just didn’t vibe with the story. It was entertaining but I wouldn’t read the second volume. Some of the dialogue seems a little cringe and cliche but it wasn’t too bad (sort of wattpad-y IMO). But it was a nice quick read nonetheless.
