This review will be vague to avoid spoilers.
I've read many romantasy stories, but I've often times in the last 25% of the story the creator stuggles to blend the fantasy plot elements and romance, leaving many loose ends. This story, however, manages to balance both the romance and fantasy elements in a completely satisfying way.
I've found with other romantasy, they build up the hype of a fantasy element like the choosen one or the saintess or anything else like that, but then it falls off. Some times other authors forget to tie up those loose ends leaving you feeling dissatisfied with an incomplete feeling story.
This story, on the otherhand, didn't hype up some major fantasy element. But at the end, it was there was a very much implied fantasy element in regards to the fate of humanity. At the same time, it didn't feel out of place. Throughout the story there are bits of fantasy elements that when you think back to while reading the big revelation, you go "oh, that actually makes so much sense." This made the end feel extremely satisfying as well as very complete. I can't recall the last time I read a story that felt so complete. It wrapped up very nicely.
Additionally, I enjoyed how cringe-y Alistea could be. Some of the things he did felt very much like unspoken human weirdness. The things people do that they wake up in a cold sweat thinking about 5 years later.
Fantastic Romance!

Love the main characters and storyline, but...This review contains spoilers. This story is unique in the sense that there's a plot twist! However the age gap that isn't an age gap is something I can't get over. While Alis is handsome and Lala is a strong-willed female lead, I just can't ship them comfortably for some reason. I'm not into possessive male leads that are in love with someone who used to be their mom!!!

He is not seductive but a abuserI‘ve read up to Chapter 5 and again it‘s a woman who is magically turned into liking being raped by her student and isn‘t mad about it.
The drawings are nice but I can’t read a story with a dumb female lead that says no to intimacy but is too nice to mean it and an said to be intelligent man who doesn’t even get that the first day of reunion isn’t the best time to get intimate, let’s better be an narcissistic a**hole and rape the woman until she loves me back
I hate that trope und it’s ambarissing that this is even a trope

Psycho LoveThis review contains spoilers. A lighter hearted look at the mind and emotions of someone who has fallen in love with their care giver. Obsessive only scratches the surface.

AmazingI loved how the author made the age-gap a safe bridge to walk with the story. That they both waited, there was no ugly grooming. Just time, communication and understanding from both parties involved.

beautifully executedOften this genre irritates me, but the author handles the uncomfortable subject matter (age gap/Oedipal issues) carefully through the dialogue clear explanations of intentions. Deliciously suspenseful with beautiful artwork. Would recommend!

Age Gap Executed Really WellUsually with age gap manhwas/mangas, I come in with a “turn brain off” setting, but I was just overall really surprised in a good way that this manga handled this relationship that’s NOT ped*philic, grooming, or manipulative at all! The “yandere”-ness is explored so thoroughly and is believable, and the connection is built on genuineness you don’t see often in fantasy mangas that’s often “forced” or “contractual” until they just “happened” to fall in love. HIGHLY recommended

I am obsessed with this storyThis review contains spoilers. I love the characters and how they develop. Many times female characters who are "good" tend to make them "so good that it's a bit silly", but Lala doesn't fall into that character construction, which I really like.
On the other hand, Alistea has a development marked by the loss of the person he loves most, it would have been very easy to give up and yet he decided to dedicate 30 years to fulfilling her beloved's dream. It's a charming story, I love each chapter even more.
