It was doing so well up until the ending-- well, part of the ending at least.

It was a nice ending, don't get me wrong, it was heartfelt and decent; I just think that it was pointless how the seme turned himself human on grounds that being immortal is hard and meaningless, and then his wish was to turn back into immortal BUT with the uke being dragged along with that immortality shizz too. Ok fine, they have each other this time around so that's part of the appeal BUT if it's so easy to turn back a former god into that state, why even make turning into a human such a huge offense? If it's such a big deal, there should be caveats to the wishes surely; just imagine a thief being caught stealing some jewelry then they get asked for their last wish and then they say they wish to turn back in time to when they weren't labeled as a thief yet and also have the stolen jewelry be originally theirs while they're at it- it's so freaking odd lol.

Another thing, the reason for returning to the god realm came off as shallow for me- it was just after a year and basically the reason that made the uke decide that he's ready is because he's tired of the human world (I don't blame him tho) they didn't get to explore much of the human world or actually spend quality time with each other; matter of fact the uke sort of disliked (?) living with the seme coz of how messy and reckless he is at home, yeah he gave him pointers here and there but seme himself barely attempted to adjust to the human realm (I get that it's a pun on his god-complex but he was supposedly prepared to live life as a human before; imagine if he wasn't granted that wish- what on earth will happen to those two in the long run? it feels like they'll eventually blame each other for the hardships). Honestly, author-nim could've cut that part out and just skip to the good part where they were both granted immortality. How? I dunno, they could pull a divine intervention plot device, if anything, this story's plot and trope is the best one to use it since it's literally about gods and them intervening- have Eros or Aphrodite pop in there, or even Hera since she's also in charge of marriages; that would also give them more character exposure which would've been fun.

Also the heck with that attempted plot twist, it was so out of the blue it just lacked impact for me. So you mean to tell me, on the earlier chapters that friend was just lowkey flexing his work to the uke? lmao; but then again, I think he's just collecting the stories though coz it was the uke's name under the that book, and also it was said that he (uke) did write it (adapted from his blogs) so what was the point of that friend? was he one of the fates then? a nudger or someone whose job is to fulfill prophecies (unlikely tho coz he mentioned being surprised when the leads fell in love, unless he's subtly talking about Tres and Hermes)?

I'm taking this too seriously coz I was really enjoying it a lot, and then the ending wasn't really satisfying for me. Still good though, if you're into Greek myths and alternative mythology this work is for you. 4/5.
