I always love QT stories, especially QT BL. So, this one is right up my alley. There's lots of dog food (fluff) in all the arcs that I've read. The stories might be a bit repetitive, but I enjoyed them so far. As a typical QT BL, it has certain tropes that it follows, as well as its share of loopholes. What I liked was that some of the antagonists in the novel (the ones in arc3 for example), weren't brainless evil people. I felt like it was possible to see such people in real life (even if they seem scummy). I liked how these villains were given certain depth of character. Rather than complete black and white portrayals, we get more grayish villains. Props to the author for doing that. The biggest negative for me would be the ending of each arc. I feel like the author becomes impatient by the end of each arc and just stops abruptly by giving us 1 or 2 perfunctory lines about the livea of the characters. I hope this improves later on.The translation quality is pretty ok, but sometimes you will feel confused about who's saying what because of the misuse of pronouns or grammatical errors. (I found this especially true for the current translation, but I believe the problems can be easily solved by employing a proper proofreader or editor. I'm still grateful for the translation though. So, I hope translator-sama doesn't feel offended by my comment. Kudos to you for continuing the translation splendidly) Tl;dr : a typical QT BL, enjoyable but not mindblowing. RECOMMENDED for a light read.
