Same, love the art like everyone else but I feel like every character BUT the prince was likable and fleshed out, even while jiuen came in rushed, she was hella enjoyable and had her reasons and wit. It was so enjoyable, right up until it was so obvious that the prince was the main ML and every other well thought out and meaningful plot point with the rest of the characters was just another piece to help the true love ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
Yeah I agree jiuen actually had a fleshed out character i just didn't like how they brought her in soo early and made it seem like tia has to fight for ruve. That did not make sense to me, they barely had become civil around each other by the time jiuen arrived.
Kind of glad to see it end. It started off strong then tapered off. Art was beautiful but the writing got weird in the last chapters. Both the fl & ml were bland. Ml never became redeemable, fl became this weak lovesick damsel and they brought jiuen her "rival" way to early into the series. I did not care at all about those millions of political scenes, should have cut those down to put more scenes of the fl & ml building up or I guess patching up their relationship.
