Written at the time of completion on Webtoon. This comic is utterly beautiful, sumptuous, and clearly has a lot of love poured into it. I do have my critiques of the early-middle portion of the story, but as soon as I realized the trajectory of the plot it fit into place. I do kind of wish that the other prominent female characters (other than the goat Saintess Tania) had more focus in the narrative, but the ones whose narratives intersected with Rieta's were well-executed.

The character art, storyboarding and blocking, writing, and designs are beautiful and feel convincingly hand-crafted.

They're excellent at conveying the delicate nature ... of growing close to people with baggage they haven't worked through, but in the process of growing close enough to them to help them work through their baggage, you have to watch them churn up something ugly in themselves before they can truly begin to heal. Intricately layered story about grief and well-written.

Written after the series completed on Webtoon. Generally speaking I liked the characters, the double isekai premise, and the protag-villain role reversal. Everyone in the fl's little group was fun even if I was constantly laughing at them making a character named Lady Chedar the owner of the Cheese Information Boutique with a completely straight face. The main antagonist was pretty nothing though, even if she was kinda fun to dunk on. She was so over the top and without any real reason or flavor other than to ragebait the readers I guess. The god plotline at the end was also pretty dumb and thrown ... in there last second.

Art is kind of mid. Standard manwha eurofantasy stock. Designs are kind of nothing and the posing is pretty stiff.

Very much a your mileage may very sort of comic because if you're super into watching people step on rakes it's honestly pretty good fun.

Written at the time of completion on Webtoon. I Thought My Time Was Up opens strongly, and the dynamic between the two leads is charming and cute. It's a rareish instance of the ml being overly shy and demure where the fl is just trying to get her rocks off before she dies so that element was really fresh and engaging, especially when it's time for the fl runaway arc. The 2nd ml is good and I liked to look at him, but the writing kind of fell off with regards to him in the epilogue because he kind of gets Jacob and Renesmee'd (😬). ... The epilogue in general is kind of just fanservice but he was NOT served by it.

Artistically it's kind of nothing special. Standard manwha eurofantasy fare. Only thing that was a little grating is the way they showed the curse as just black scribbles on the ml's body and some kind of awful stink. That was the best they had I guess.
