What Makes a King? – A Concept Overview & Analysis

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @peggyseditorial​​ Above is my favorite scene from the manhwa King’s Maker (from Season 1 Episode/chapter 14).  I love this scene because it perfectly embodies the ideal of what it takes to be a just or good leader in the fictional world of this particular story (not just seen as one publicly, but actually being one). It’s an idea that relies … Continue reading What Makes a King? – A Concept Overview & Analysis

This is also a series I highly recommend and if Halloween is my vessel to serve you this manhwa, then so be it!

Akuyaku Reijo Nanode Rasubosu o Katte Mimashita: A Review

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @peggyseditorial​ In the ever-growing stock of isekai mangas featuring young women reborn in an otome game, what stands out to me about Akuyaku Reijo Nanode Rasubosu o Katte Mimashita is that Aileen/Irene (our main character) isn’t being given the full story of the game like her contemporaries. This is something her antagonist, and the game’s original protagonist, Lilia, seems to have gotten … Continue reading Akuyaku Reijo Nanode Rasubosu o Katte Mimashita: A Review

The Wolf Lord’s Lady: Ghosts of the Past (Analysis)

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @peggyseditorial​ Many things stand out about The Wolf Lord’s Lady. Particularly in how it opens–with our main character’s life completely falling apart. Her family, dead.

All while putting on a cruel persona as … Continue reading The Wolf Lord’s Lady: Ghosts of the Past (Analysis)
