*Thinks about this series🤔
*organizes thoughts🤗
I am repeating myself with every book review of these volumes, but they are absolutely intriguing. Immersive, atmospheric, and filled with action, this series is conducive to making you fall in love with manga. I find myself introducing this to every reader I meet. Tenyou is the sweetest love interest. So kind and caring, and I love how he cares for Rangetsu. Although the two have a very strong relationship and aren't lovers yet (judging by the covers in the other books. . . that intimidates me, especially book six-I mean what's going on THERE🤔?)
This is a true story. I got hacked by going on an illegal website trying to find out when Tenyou realizes Rangetsu's really a woman. It was worth it! I got early access to some interesting scenes with tension. . . but well, I got a virus on my computer. It was worth it for this series although I never actually got to see the scene🥲.
Rangetsu is an Ajin who owns her rights. She is fierce and brave. I love how Rangetsu is out-spoken but also has the right amount of self-control. Rangetsu's struggle with trusting Tenyou never felt ridiculous or repetitive. It made sense and was done in a relatable and reasonable way. The third prince is mysterious, and his character was intriguing, setting aside the confusion I have about looking at book six's cover?
I love the aesthetic of the art, the flowers, and beautiful costume design, buildings and scenery. The introduction of Kougai's sister, I enjoyed seeing their back-and-forth arguing AKA sibling relationship. Kougai's sister herself is just . . . the way she treated Rangetsu? Nah, I don't like her.
During stressful times, even if I didn't book two, I would flip ahead through these books because they bring me happiness! I hope I receive book five, six, seven, and eight from the library soon.
