Story- a manwha with so much premise but ultimately ruined by the writer wanting to be done with it. It started off so great, Rai and shinwoon especially, seeing Rai interact with society - then just went downhill with repetative arcs. A quick summary of the story is werewolves , vampires ( nobles) and humans fighting essentially over centuries in secret, with Rai being 'the noble' and just wants a normal life. Eventually the union ( a mixture of all three with evil purposes ) start to do things and things escalate. Its not a bad concept at all right? The issue is there is SO many plot holes and just generic combat type themes that are used that essentially ruin it. Why does Rai stop using mind control? How come the union never used missiles at all? The story is pretty much : funny scene - bad guy appears - either get saved by Frankenstein or they lose, and ask Frankenstein to make them stronger - refight, bad guy loses - next bad guy appears and repeat.
P.S. the ending is disappointing - just rushed.
Art- honestly, wasn't bad at all, the characters themselves look REALLY well done, my only gripe would be in some fight scenes, it's so hard to tell what's going on.
Character- this was really nice. Minor characters got a lot of development , and it wasn't just focused on elegant Rai being overpowered. M-21, yao and more had so much screen time and it was so nice watching them develop. It really does suck the writer hinted at romance but never commited to anything at all - another reason why it feels like he rushed it. He starts character development then just forgets about it. E.g. did m-21 find the names? Why does he hint at shinwoon being recruited for the KSA but never do anything with it?
Enjoyment/overall - honestly, it's worth a read. The beginning 100% got me hooked, but as you read more you'll find out it's so predictable and you'll probably end up skipping through a lot of the fight scenes, since they're so minor and so many of them.
If I had to describe this show in a short sentence it would be: 'A great concept with such wasted potential'
Feel free to message me if you're agree/disagree and why!
