Agathe's manga / #showbiz(7)

20 - not much to say but it’s sweet and cute

70 - boring, super slow, little on showbiz - less than no character development I also don’t like the cat mouth of the MC, while the art could have been really looking good Worse than that : i don’t like spices in my sweet cakes :/ : For once, i was reading a shounen ai, and it became more and more explicit , s3 is literally starting with lasers ***** ! I’m far from a prude by what the heck ! I read some excellent titles that went from chaste to burning hot, it was the flow of a good story, whatever was shown little or a lot did fit the story, as some accomplishments would - but not here, it never serves any narrative purpose Shounen ai, has cute vibe, pasting porn into feels like it is like strange compulsion : it’s like porn page in a rom com ? Why ? a certain scene of titanic movie was super hot without showing anything - meat is not necessarily needed to be sexy or intense I don’t mind smut, but it’s not really the right vibe here, and there should be more story to actually build the relationships or characters instead Maybe it’s public demand, and it may make some readers happy, but i don’t get it - i don’t need to spectate people sexuality to be happy about a love story If there’s a real demand, why not make a side story that would follow its own pace

314 - 4.5 - on Webcomics - Very good in the idol register, there’s a lot about the carrier and artistic challenges - there’s quite a bit about the mystery behind the tragedy of the MC’s mom So while I’m not into the revenge part, i like it that the art competition becomes more important and the core values of the MC switch for the best - the mystery add some danger to the story - there are a big bunch of secondary characters, it feels like a lesser glass mask in many way (except it’s music not theater of course) - i say lesser but it’s still a compliment ;p i’d love to read a lot more !!

41 - very good, the plot is sufficient to carry the story It might be a bit disappointing that the ML is made to be some kind of sociopath with a big trauma again - would being that calculating necessarily the sign of an obsessional disease ? It might be hard to deny, but at the same time, there was no need for a trauma behind With that in mind, it’s really hard to relate to anyone with empathy deficiency - That’s about it, i read for the plot, the rest is too clinical, the romance is cold and calculated : without being bad, it’s the opposite of good?

4.5 - Very sweet and cute, beautiful in many ways

48 - 4.5 - exceptional in that category, there’s a lot of professional life, it’s entertaining, the characters are great, it not too badly centered on the MC (let’s hope it last ?) and teamwork matters Great pace good vibe for a light and fun read !

67 - like « real man », but in show business Real values, big heart, and interesting entertainment background It’s the second time i read a story about someone « accomplished «  in modern society criteria, turning time to be a better person, protect the good guys and bring a bit of fairness to the world, instead of making poor human choices, that’s leads to one’s « success « at the cost of others suffering and ruin. This seams like a « soft version » of the more business oriented « real man », there’s a lot of cute and humorous characters, which in a way makes for an easier read albeit probably not as deep (both are great) How refreshing in anycase : i want more !
