When I had just begun reading this, I wasn't too thrilled by it.
With the amount of dissatisfaction that had accumulated, I would read through some of the other peoples' opinions which only furthered the feeling that I just want to get this story over with.
This story is, for its greater part, a shonen story. That is to say that silly developments best described as instead of doing the logical, the plot-fertilising choices are made, are all that happens. But that that's all that happens is entirely incorrect..
The people who say this turned bad as it was nearing its end (as of around chapter 200) are exclusively the people who like what I've described above. They like shonen, fighting, dislike drama, or simply can't enjoy something in a way diferrent from the one they've grown to enjoy it in already.
"Girls of the Wild's" is a gem for me. I've been wanting to find a hybrid story, to call it so, such as this. A story which grows on its audience based on something which entirely changes as the story progresses.
It took me as long as it did to read the first 200 chapters, to read the last 60 (in days).
This story is a shonen-harem over the course of its first 200 chapters, and it has caused an innumerable amount of times for me to roll my eyes during the time of reading those first 200, having been unable to take the story seriously because of its developments.
That entirely ENTIRELY changes later on.
This story goes from being a shonen fighting genre, to being about love, turning in to a drama, becoming realistic, changing vastly from the extraordinary daily stuff occurring, to just life going about normally.
It somewhat feels to me like the author simply prepared the ground for his main intent for the story which is the chapters after the first season.
I was dragging myself through quite a number of chapters prior to the "season 2" of the story (literally, the manhwa in itself has a chapter at the end of which it's written that it marks the ending of the first season of the manhwa, that chapter is around ch. 200), but with the coming of the ”2nd" season.. Wow, as if the entirety of the first 200 chapters carry the purpose to cultivate the ground, the latter within me set in and bore fruit splendidly.
The most important thing to me is the characters, and in that aspect this story never made me "roll my eyes", as its plot in the beginning did.
I wish there was more to this story.
I wish there was more of The Girls of the Wild's..
I've been feeling down since I've read the story becauae my view of the world of that story's characters is done.
I can only imagine what goes on with their lives after the final chapter.
Moonyoung, Jaegu, Queen, Yeo Jung, Joon Gu, the Goo Ra high's teacher and miss Lee Na.. Jae Hyung, Jae Som, In Sung, Hye Sung.. All.. Each and every single one of those, not knowing more about them, being cut off from their world brings about a feeling of suffocating to me.
And then there's Dal Dal.
What went on with her in the story, and how it finalized, is scary to me. I don't know how else to put it.
If I remember Dal Dal or she comes up as a wallpaper on my phone when I'm about to sleep, I get woken up by the discomfort instigated by knowing what went on with her.
I feel horrible, because she's perfection that slipped away and can never be attained again.
Something along the lines of "You don't know what you have until you lose it".
Queen is also perfect, Dal Dal and her are both honorable while queen is also respectul, but I simply grew vastly attached to Dal Dal as she is an extremely direct, open and warm person.
This was a top-class story for me.
When I think about Dal Dal, it brings about the feeling of suffocating in me.
I was highly disencouraged by the a lot of the opinions, but it's just people who got lost in the story, as the author did perform a trick with the telling of it.
Basically, this story changes genre.
9/10 and not 10/10 because I had some trouble with keeping myself reading the story during its first 200 chapters, the first season, after it it turns 10/10.
I was annoyed over how I was swayed to expect that I would not like the story further more, but just the opposite, as I'd near its end.
It's really great to me, gave me melancholy.
I mean.. It's just come across my mind that this is the feeling of NTR, something I don't even remember having felt while reading Kuzu no Honkai.
This story is just so special. It was told in such an overall thought out way.
First the author built up the world or the story's characters, and then in the last 60 chapters focused just on it .
This is the only way I can actually legitimately experience the "NTR" feeling. It wasn't forced, it's not even in the "genres" of the series. I grew attached to the characters, but their story is only told of for a while, as their life together only lasted that much and the mangwa ended.
Gradually, they started going their seperate ways, just as it happens in real life..
This was a top-class experience, but but not story due to the first 200 chapters, for me.
I wish there was more to read through, at least 500 chapters. The story ended while it was soo good.. I love this.
