I love it! The story delivers what you expect. The title and tags do justice to what it is. As I like relationships between brothers, I was very satisfied. Now if you don't like it, well, the title and tags already tell you what to expect, so don't even waste your time ^^

I look forward to their relationship progressing <3

WARNING!

If you want to read this, then prepare yourself mentally and throw away all your morals and common sense. *In short, shut down your brain

I have mixed feelings about this. *Unless you have neglected all good morals and have become completely pe*verted!

Well, there are other smut stories out there that are much more violent and immoral than this. But this is also more or less the same. The difference is that the main couple is not truly blood relatives. What makes me feel complicated are their children. (Also how denser... more>> than a neutron star the MC was!)

I was annoyed by how naive and s*upid the MC was. You could be naive or good-hearted but please don't be an idiot! Not all naive people have to be s*upid! The characters I dislike the most are the types that when they had naivety and idiot only had one line apart! Until now I still don't understand why most of Japanese novels like this type as their madona character. Very few main characters are not this kind of s*upid naive.

I want to give 2 stars bcs of how irritated the MC (or 1 star) but I give it 3 because other factors. <<less

Well, this might be not a cup of tea for some people while it does for another people. In my opinion, this is kind of simple and light story and mainly focus in ML & MC cuddling activity so that's way it won't consist any complexity of plot, character's growth, logic and so on. Regarding to "in*est" tag, up to ch.11 I can assure you that they're not real brothers (in fact both of them were born from different father and mother but because ML's mother is another wife of... more>> MC's father who is kidnapped by Demon King and ML was born of them) people thought ML was King's son while he isn't, so they are not real brothers. The tags is already there so if this is not into your liking guys, just kindly make detour. For those who look for kind of simple-full-of-smexy-and-cuddling without any complicated plot and logic, you may try this story. <<less

I'm okay with all the tags, and naive protagonists + yandere ML are kinda my thing too. So, I read it. (I dropped it later at c39)

1. The plot– It was fine, not amazing but not that bad either. It focuses mainly on the romance between the MC and ML, which is fine for me. You don't have to think or memorize anything (like me) because it's not complicated. But it gets pretty boring for me as the story progresses, I can't really find anything interesting which would supposedly... more>> motivate me to continue on.

2. The MC– He's supposed to be an adult, right? Again, I'm okay with naive or dense protagonists, but he's an exemption. At first, I kinda liked him. He looked promising. But after the kissing started, he was acting all weird and his mental age regressed. He knows his brother (ML) is doing it out of guilt, but he's like "I know he doesn't really love me but I love his kisses, his tongue, and his body. It makes me feel hot all over and I CAN'T SURVIVE WITHOUT HIM BY MY SIDE". Is he that h**ny? It also felt like MC is originally the character he transmigrated into. He's not my type of "naive" protagonist.

3. The ML– He was kinda okay, not as bad as the other MLs in novels I usually read. He fell in love with MC so fast, but I doubt it's actually love. What weirded me out was that he's already doing s*xual things with the MC even with the latter being a minor (physically). And God, his reason for not doing the deed quickly is that he wants to move out of the palace first. At least make it because MC is still underage.

4. The side characters– Most are really garbage and wants to violate the MINOR MC. For the good ones, their screentime (idk what it's called) were short and not that much.

Overall, it's an okay read. Not for everyone. Even if you're fine with the tags, it won't guarantee you'd like the novel itself (from what happened to me). I was actually here for the smut and the pregnancy, but turns out I won't be able to reach those parts since the earlier chapters disappoint me. <<less

Little brother is denser than a neutron star. The intimacy between them feels like it progresses really quickly since the chapters are short.

It's the kind of story where you need no think too much. The lightest light novel. Still, the story is passable as romance. Like the extended version of prologue of h doujin lol

I have only read the first 10 chapters of this novel at the time of writing this review, but I can say for sure that it is a relatively good story. However, that is just my own opinion so to whomever is interested in reading this: please look at the tags, this is brother x brother and the protagonist is the most naive little shou you'll ever find. If this bothers you, DON'T READ. The age-gap between the two is 4 years and the male lead is an adult. If... more>> you dislike this, you will probably dislike the story.

The protagonist is simple and sweet, naive and s*upidly silly at times, whereas the male lead is already in love and likes to do not-so-age-appropriate things to his younger brother shou. He already shows signs of becoming a yandere. Currently both care for each other and the protagonist is also starting to develop feelings for the ML (although he neither realises it nor admits it).

Spoiler

The MC has already used his light powers in the first chapter and it is with his sacrifice and wholehearted kindness that the ML has fallen for him.

[collapse]

The ML can be quite manipulative and, coupled with the MC's naivity, has successfully gotten the MC to think that what they are doing is normal.

Spoiler

ML uses the reason that he wants to give back the magic power the MC gave him by kissing him, the way the MC did to restore his original looks, in order to get MC to let him kiss him.

[collapse]

Again, and I cannot emphasis this enough, look at the tags and pay attention to the plot summary. If you dislike any of the tags, don't bother reading the story only to come back and complain in a review. You could mislead others who might actually enjoy the novel. Everyone has their likes and dislikes, it might not fit your taste, but it could fit others'. <<less

I hope this is the author's first attempt at writing, because yikes..

It feels like something a junior high student would write..

I wasn't expecting much really, I know what I'm into when I specifically search for japanese yaoi novel (lol).

But.. This is just to painfull to keep reading, I don't even have the willpower to continue reading till the smutty part..

I give extra stars just for the translation group for picking this up as their first translation project.. My condolence

this novel is okay, it's quite interesting at the start... but then there are those things that make me go anxious throughout the story

• I'm thinking of dropping this because of how the MC is treated after he lost the " useful " part of being a prince, I'm not good with s*xual harassment.

• I may have a thing for brotherly love in some type of way, but after I read each chapter I have lost the feeling of enjoying the brotherly love. rather I became more and more anxious... more>> about the MC

• talking about the MC, he can be called " innocently s*upid ". by his actions and how he reacts, there's no feeling of " awww, what a cute MC. must protecc!!! " for me, but " I know you're trying to act like this, but can you please use your logical brain and not your heart? " <<less

(dropped reading at 24)

It's not about the in*est tag, the problem is how the story is written.

The conversations are like, broken? Rather than not thinking deeply because the story isn't deep, I find myself trying hard to understand the lines and connect the dots since it's not polishedly written. Not just the dialogues, same thing with the thought process (since this uses alternating pov). And I think something's wrong with the translation

The MC is reincarnated, or transmigrated? But after the part where he saves the brother, you'll forget... more>> about him being another person. That trope is not properly integrated to the character

I decided to drop this because this has a lot of chapters and I don't I'll enjoy reading through it all <<less

The novel is okay for you who read with your brain turn off / okay with accepting kiss with you all of suddenly out of no where. Don't forgot the in*est tag btw.

The ML fell in love easy, that is okay.

The MC automatically accept ML nonsense is weird, but okay if you're just searching for smut, I mean hey, smut doesn't need to be 'logical' right. But if you are irked by this kind of MC, "kissing? Well okay since he said it just for X, so it is not... more>> count as kissing".

Personally when the MC and ML start become ambiguous, MC personality before meeting him is thrown to garbage, automatically tamed by ML / become spineless and dull, I see MC as brave and s*upid, but OK I guess for fav character before, but after meet ML lost the magical he become different person, becoming mr. Yes man accepting weird thing ML do without doubting any, dependent to him and the flow seemed kinda forced? I guess they aiming for fast romance or just not my cup of tea.

TDLR:

When reading this you should turn off all the logical brain you have, okay with pseudo in*est, then you can enjoy this. <<less

[Dropped at v1c2]

It's honestly not that great. Maybe when you want to read something at 3 a.m., while drunk and wasted, it might be worth checking, but otherwise I don't recommend this to anyone.

The MC's feelings aren't detailed and I cant bring myself to feel the chemistry because it's nonexistent.

You literally have to turn off your thoughts for this.
