It's really nice to be able to see the attention to detail that Smythe has in her illustrations on a larger scale compared to my smaller screen since the printed volumes are adapted from the webtoon.

It's so nice to go back and re-read the story as the comic is on hiatus but better to own my own copy. I'm still enjoying the modern settings and the way that Smythe has reconstructed the characters as she tells her narrative. It's a definite slow burn between Hades and Persephone as they're both still dealing with their own things as well as their trying to control their continuous flirtng, which is just not helping them.
A lot of additional characters have their moments in this volume as the romance takes a step back to allow the story to build on what was already introduced in the previous volumes plus the cliffhanger ending, again, on this one.

This volume collects episodes 103–126 of the Webtoon Comic
