MagicalSakura's Reviews

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!
