Mage & Demon Queen

Aug 4, 2019

Good read, it's a romantic comedy where the girl keeps trying but the queen says no, but really enjoyes the attention. You pretty much know exactly what your getting and it delivers it well. it also get's surprisingly real later on with death being seriously brought up and just how annoying the "constantly coming back after rejection" thing would be in real life, but not enough to take away from the story.

The main problem in this is Queen Vel. For most of the story Vel is just your typical tsundere before they melt, she's insulting, violent, and doesn't believe a romantic word said, only with explosions. As the demon queen she's THE plot device in this world, not just for Malori as the would-be love interest, but for the world at large Vel is the strongest thing alive or at least by far the strongest thing even hinted at. But until the last dozen or so chapters she get's nothing, she get's less then the snake lady. The only reason to invest in the romance until the end of Season 1 is Malori's stubborn love, they look great, and we know they'll get together.

That all being said it's still a worth while read if you want to smile and this is your thing. Oh and the art's pretty good, not mind blowing but leagues better then other manga/webtoons I've seen.
