Really loved the art style but I think the multitude of characters/plot lines really weighed everything down. There are so many mini arcs going on at the same time that it's difficult to even follow what the main plot is going on half the time.
I can see how this would be easier to follow through various Webtoon updates, but as a single comic volume, it's a little too weighty and I wish it had been broken up a little better. I think there's an interesting storyline here, but I don't want to be bogged down by six other ones.
I'm currently reading the author's other comic, Marionetta, and I feel like that one has the right amount of polish and consistency for me, so I don't think I'll be continuing this specific series.
