Let's Talk About Heartbeat Conquest Before it Leaves Webtoon!

Currently up to 119 is available without paying on webtoon, so I'll stick to that.

I loved the first season and the beginning of the second season. The characters were likable, the harem was hilarious, the romance was pretty good. And the mystery was interesting and enjoyable.

I know there must be some kind of publishing issue with Webtoon etc., but there seems like something else happened with the writing quality in season 2. The story needed more time to cook. When things really begin unfolding with the lore, it just takes a hard sideways turn. I think it begins with the red eyed/black haired dude plot.

There is suddenly so much focus on a new character getting scenes by himself, and a lot of exposition being half-given about side characters. There are these huge stretches of chapters where the audience is kept in the dark and the side characters are just "doing things mysteriously". The effect is the plot became very disjointed and random.

Hopefully it will still have a satisfying conclusion? It is still interesting enough to finish, but sadly it has slipped out of my "all time favourites" list.
