Started out good. it was engaging throughout and I was curious about the world it's set in and wanted happiness for the MC, interesting supporting characters as well. You really end up rooting for the main pairing just for the bloody (pun intended) ending to completely let you down and ruin the experience.
A good ending (and I don't mean Happy endings) that suits the story is really important. This story's ending is not a good one. At all and is the reason I do not recommend this manhwa to anyone.

The ending is too abrupt and just felt like the author just wanted there ... to be twist ending just for the sake of it.
Take my advice don't read this story. Just don't. I wasted enough of my time on it. I should have just stopped it at Ch 58. It's only because of the ending that I am rating this one 3/10 or else it would've been a 7





Spoiler Warning:

The MC's husband and some other humans get killed by a mysterious killer who is clearly a Vampire These killings are done by a Black haired yellow eyed person. Isaac (ML) is highly suspected as the killer. FL sends him to people who can protect him as they know well about this world and Vampires. There are Vampires in this group of people. Isaac looks happy there.

Fl ends up escaping her horrible life and goes to them as well just before her husband is killed. FL's maid who becomes FL's friend gets fired for helping the FL meet the ML and then almost executed as an accomplice to all these killings, she get rescued by these people too.

All in all, we get a good story till then as they get to be free and live new lives and form a little unit of their own. They are all also investigating the real killer to clear Isaac's and other Vampires' names. MC decides to take a medicine that turns her into a Vampire too to live forever with Isaac
Everything is great till CH 59. Just stop before that if you do end up reading it.

Major Spoilers about the endings:

It turns out Isaac is the killer and all I could think was "What! That came out of nowhere". IT doesn't feel like the right ending at all. What feels like what should have been a cliffhanger for a Season ending ends up being " The End" and the Epilogue is worse.

Anime which took a little over 15 minutes to complete(all 10 eps), puts a huge smile on your face while watching each ep and each pairing. The stories are set in a slice of life situation.
The dialogues used don't feel like your typical anime setting, it feels more like listening to two people just conversing in Japanese language which feels so nice to hear.
No drama or complicated topics, no drama. Just sweet moments shared between people in their ordinary lives.
The animation has a certain charm to it. It feels like watching an Animatic in Youtube. Love it!
I wish there were more eps and more ... such ordinary moments we could see.

Music is also very pleasant and gives a happy feeling when you hear it.

Anyways highly recommended for a relaxing happy watch which doesn't take much time to complete.

Highly Recommended!

Yuzuki Family's Four Sons is what we call a Feel good story. Though it starts with the tragic death of the parents. The anime does maintain a good balance of The Four Sons doing their best to support one another and lead good happy lives while also showing the heavier side of things that come with losing their parents.

The anime also uses many of the Anime gags we are used to like *cough* Mikoto's Bro-Con side *cough* is a fun normal way that isn't too daunting on casual anime viewers or even those who don't usually watch anime.
This anime has an amazing cast ... of MCs along with great supporting cast (their neighbours). Everyone is memorable and likeable. we get to look through their eyes (all 4 of the boys and their neightbours) and truly get them.

Every episode is a delight to watch and experience without feeling bored. We learn something new about our boys in each episode that will make us cry and smile with them.

I would recommend this story to anyone and I mean anyone. Another amazing anime added to my Masterpiece list.

An Unexpected Gem.
I have read so many mangas bl or otherwise and I gotta say for 6 (+extra ch) chapters story both the MCs are properly introduced and we really like them instantly. They don't just instantly sleep together like in so many other BL mangas I read.
They are adorable, awkward, nervous, excited. I love how real they felt. Neither of them felt like your typical Uke and Seme dynamic we find in mangas.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is a fan of BL genre, who wants to try BL genre or just are a romance fan who wants to read two ... working adults faliing in love with each other with no unnecessary drama whatsoever.
If only it was longer. I wanna see where their relationship goes.

The only Supporting character is a female co worker of the Office Worker and she is great too. Giving proper advice to our MC.

The Art is really nice.

Started watching this anime because of the Luck of the Draw stack challenge but finished it because of how fun the anime turned out to be.
For those who love stories about Nakama, superpowers, action, a buddy cop type story and with an overarching mystery this anime is perfect. The first 4 eps are a good introduction to this story and it's characters.It's from Ep 5 the story really kicks in. All the characters in High Card (Finn,Chris,Leo,Vijay and Wendy) really grow on you and the episodes keep things interesting giving us more backstory on the characters and the cards at an even pace. I feel ... like Season 1 is just the beginning and am looking forward to the next season.

Finn and Chris are a nice duo to follow. From Ep 7 we really get to see their friendship blossom and I can't wait to see more of them working together and depending on one another. Becoming 'buddies'
Leo, Wendy and Vijay are also awesome! I wanna know more about them and see all 5 of them actually work as a team in the next season.
The bad guys are menacing and the higher up our team reports to is equally strong and dangerous.
The soundtrack is fun to listen to. Nothing special but good.
I love the art and the colour scheme used. Reminded me of Balance Unlimited. The action sequences too. Very fun to watch.
All in all Recommended!

The same mangaka as Kamisama Hajimemashite and frankly I enjoyed the story a bit more than Kamisama Hajimemashite and it's mainly due to the cute couple who are our main characters. Recommended for sure!
Our Couple is truly the highlight of this story. From the moment our FL summons the ML by accident to the end everything is just super sweet and the development of their love makes sense. it feels natural.

Good for light reading with fluff, demons and shojo romance.

I like the art style too. The supporting cast is good especially Mako. I would love learn more about our MC's mother and her contract. Sounds ... like it would be an interesting story.
All in all a good story to binge read and have fun!

I didn't expect much from a 5 chapter manga but the MCs quickly won me over. They both were not the type of characters I expected and their straightforwardness and lack of over-dramatic cold behaviour towards each other or lack of rivalry was also very nice.
The first 3 chapters and the bonus slice of life moments are highly recommended.
Overall it's a good manga. Not the greatest out there but one of the better ones. Especially considering how many mangas end up with the MCs having non-consensual or dub-con "making love".
No such thing here.
Both love each other and meet naturally from eating each others sweets and ... then confessing feelings properly before diving into a stable relationship.
I just wish there was more. I would love to just read their daily lives and how they influence each other both personally and work wise.

Important:- I wouldn't recommend this movie as anyone's First BL! It is so much better than some of the BLs I had the displeasure of getting exposed to like Junjou Romantica that made me glad YuuriXVictor from Yuri On Ice is the first homosexual relationship I watched. So if it is your first BL I recommend Doukyuusei movie instead.

Review:-
Surprisingly Good. I like the plot and how our MC is living a double life. One as a Calm, Friendly, Polite News Anchor and other as a well... his inner thoughts which are filled with frankness about his feelings without holding anything back. Everyone only sees the ... New Anchor persona and not the Inner thoughts one. Then he meets the LI and I surprised by how well their relationship developed.

The LI meets both personas of our MC and gets close to both. Is friends and has heart to heart conversations with both. I expected the LI to be your typical Yaoi Seme but he's not. Wow
I like how MC and LI get together too. All in all I am impressed!
I really like our MC and how his hardwork is recognised.
If you are used to BL then you can give this a shot. Both of them have a good relationship growth and their feelings felt natural.

The only problem which can't be ignored no matter what is the last 5 mins where they sleep together. It's not rape like in so many BL animes where it's easily brushed aside by the Anime like it's not rape where the Uke(the Bottom) is clearly trying to push away the Seme(the top) and is trying to escape the situation and the Seme is basically forcing himself on the Uke and calls it love. It's not that! It is consensual for the most part but... if you don't mind minor spoilers read ahead. Nothing Plot Related. I had to bring down my rating from 7 to 6 all because of this scene and how troubling it is and how much of a wrong message it sends.

Minor Spoilers:-
It's hard to say it's not consensual and that's the problem. Is the MC being Playful? No! I don't think so... I think he was scared... to take that step maybe not terrified but scared of the new experience which is a a vulnerable moment and it wasn't respected enough by the LI and it feels OOC of the LI to just tell him that he can't hold bac.
The MC didn't hit the LI or push him away... I mean the MC is Not Rejecting the LI and the LI doesn't seem like he is forcing himself on the MC but It's just odd. It leaves an icky feeling. I don't like it. I hate that I have to bring down the 7 to 6 because of this one scene!!!

They could have gone the Consent route completely! I don't understand why they had to make the LI suddenly be the Yaoi troupe! That's the disappointing part. Very disappointing. Made me question all my enjoyment till now.

It could have been perfect because neither of them were being your typical Yaoi Anime Troupes. Their relationship felt natural. I love how they started to like each other for a reason! Then this happens.
The Sleeping Part which is I guess Mostly consensual but not really! UGH they should stop doing this!
If only there was a scene where the LI stops and talks to the MC about it and respects MC when he says no . I am giving a 6 for rest of the story and because MC doesn't look like he is scared of LI himself but more of going all the way.

What?? 6.84?? Why is the score so low?? how is it so low?? I am so surprised by how low it is. I at least expected it to be above 7. This story has everything! Royalty, politics, outsmarting your enemies, very strong Female lead and Male Lead, Isekai (Though the FL directly travels into the world in her original body- it's no webtoon she read in her previous life or anything of that sort), Contract marriage turned Love.

The FL is very practical and is just doing her very best to survive and return home. The King is horrifying and the ML is the King's ... son. The ML is also really practical and charismatic and strong. He is the one who proposes the Contract marriage and make her the empress and they clean the Kingdom together. They work so well together too! They are truly equals and the ML falls first.
He even changes the law on marrying more than 1 wife even though the FL is ok with it for it is advantageous for him to have a First Queen. That's how logical she is and she doesn't bring herself to love him at first because she doesn't want to stay as an Empress.
Their relationship just grows into love so naturally as they work together to make the kingdom a better place for everyone and aren't afraid to dirty their hands. Truly awesome rulers!

The Villainess man... we feel for her yet want her dead and she is a force to be reckoned with. The Supporting cast is great too.
The plot keeps you on your toes as you binge-read the whole Webtoon!

Highly Recommended!!! The ending too is so satisfying to read!

My very first Manhwa and a damn good one! This one created a Standard for me on what a webtoon should be like.
I highly recommend it. I've read it 3 times and it's all because how amazing all the characters are. No one is one dimensional or dumb in any way.
I absolutely love our MCs in this story and also the supporting cast is one of the best I have ever read and especially the OG FL, her name is Gracie and as someone who has read many isekai Webtoons by now didn't realise back then how much of a gem character Gracie really ... is. Og FL are usually so predictably ruined by the Isekai webtoons in order to elevate the FL but not in this one. Nope! Gracie stays true to her character as any Isekai Webtoon should!
Also shows the proper reason why Cesar and Gracie will no longer fall in love with each other as they would have had the FL not been in their lives.
My fav has to be the ML's brother, Noah! Noah is just so cute and awesome and honestly very smart himself. He knows what he wants and that is he does not want to fight his big brother for the throne. It's honestly endearing to see how good the relationship between Noah and his brother and his sister in law is.

Ceasar and Canaria are absolutely adorable and badass together. I adore them so much!! It's a little slow burn at first and takes Canaria time to realise and accept that she loves him and Ceasar loves her and once she does she is in it for the long haul and even before that they clearly are a couple and are very close to one another.
One of the more interesting dynamics of this story is how Canaria is with the Empress. I'm not gonna spoil anything. I want you to read and experience it yourselves

All in all A really good read with perfect Isekai elements, Romance, Friendship, Characters having brains and using it, Sweet moments, Royalty, no damsel in distresses or Male Characters being dumbed down in any way, interesting and very importantly engaging plot.
Now writing this review makes me want to go read it again.
It may not be a 10/10 for you guys who are reading this review but it'll most likely be at least a 7 or 8. So give it a try.
