TDG is better if we're talking about the whole plot, cultivation ranking/system and etc, with a bit of romance. On the other hand, NAS isn't that good. Cultivation is kinda fast but not enough to be said that he is OP, and he also relies a lot with his pets and friends. MC is not decisive and not cunning enough (he often ask for direction to how he should plan next step) and always need his family, friends or lovers to sacrifice themselves in order for him to grow/progress which is pure stupid and ridiculous. Harem make the MC a fool. Also the translations are pretty inconsistent once you get around the mid part, if you can bear with it then do so.
This manga is, without a doubt, BL. And because of that, I found it enjoyable.<br /><br />However, let's dive deeper. "Abiru Junjou" stands out as an above-average BL manga, focusing on Yuka, a young man who inexplicably draws the attention of other males, which unfortunately makes him a target for relentless bullying by envious females. On the other side of this narrative is Gotou-sensei, a notorious womanizer whose path crosses with Yuka, capturing his interest.<br /><br />At first, it's challenging to empathize with either protagonist, as they both come across as... peculiar. Yuka, in particular. Yet, as their backstories unfold, you become more invested in their characters. The plot thickens as it delves into Yuka's missing parents and the primary cause behind the bullying. You might anticipate the story taking a somber turn here, but "Abiru Junjou" concludes on a positive note, leaving you feeling either satisfied or wanting more. Personally, I experienced a mix of both.
