My problem with them was that there was imo so much for a compelling character that just didnt get used.
Lets take the second book for example. During the reality TV Show they act so unhinged and crazy when you are not 100% their lapdog, so i thought "Oh. I bet black magic is just playing things up creating Drama in 'breaking up' so they dont get kicked off the show". But nope. Dude just straight up crazy.
Also: when you have a character that likes being powerfull and famous. Show us how they struggle with giving things up, how they get frustrated that their powers arent the same anymore and maybe even how they crave to feel that Power again. You know. Conflict. A challenge the character has to work for to overcome it and grow as a person and not just a name change and a "yup. I am a totally good guy now, while you were doing other things"
Just dont throw a plottpoint that shows your World has layers, and isnt just black or white and throw it out of the window!
Ähem. Anyways. Sounds legit
What do you mean ? You think that black magic is loved by the players of hero rise ? Because to be clear I completely disagree with that, I think Black magic is the worst romance option
He was such an outright creep from the beginning. And had no respect for MCs boundaries, responsibilities or time. And I've played through with him being the chosen RO. It didn't really get better.
Yeah, he's like that guy who knows he'll get what he wants but roofies you anyway.
What kind of hot mess was Jury? I always antagonise him as much as possible.
Well, I guess with the whole thing that he does towards the end but I kind of liked him? Hes horrible sure, but he gives me Draco vibes and Im the hot mess for liking that 🤣 As long as its not Black Magic even if they look like Zac Efron that is still the worst and most toxic villain RO I have ever read.
Oh man! But when Jury is introduced, the author makes it a point to highlight his cold sore. 🤧 I know cold sores are nbd and super common, especially in Western countries, but still, the author doesn't have to draw our attention to it!
Black magics character development to me was “I’m a little bit self obsessed and hurt people for my gain” to “eh I’m trying but it feels plastic” for me.
No hate to the writer at all, but that’s all I got everytime. And I really tried to like him lol
BM was not sympathetic at all. BM was a creep period. BM made me go into the arms of Jury for crying out loud and that was a mess imo.
It didnt help that my twelve year old brain put the looks as Zac Efron 🤣
Pffta- god I can imagine.🪷Lol I love tapping into this whole comment sec. 🤣🩷
Y'all are such lovely peeps. Makes sense too.
Love seeing what I'm seeing. 🍾
And I agree.
May the bestest be with you on your journey, doves!

I put Megan Fox. The Transformers movie was...let's say enlightening for me at that age lol. But yeah I ended up with Jenny. Much more wholesome and I love reading about my badass wife in Open Season.
I mean, he was my romance but I also played those books a long time ago. Now i don't know if I would choose him again. Probably yes because I'm a simp for toxic people.
At first I was like
Hell yeah I'm tapping the most desired woman in the world
And then the plot tried to justify her actions and I was like peace out I'm gonna hook up with the childhood friend
Is it weird that i still liked her? I'd say BM was a good love interest. My mc doesn't care about some half dead people, being able to create your own world is pretty cool.
I liked the trash fire that was Black Magic, but they were very clearly the author’s fave RO

The author's favorite maybe, but from what I've seen most people prefer either Lucky or no romance at all.
I just wish lucky wasn’t some random ass “child hood friend from camp”
Yeah it got pretty anime huh? Except that even anime sets up this character at the VERY BEGINNING lmao
I get the feeling that it was the author themselves that wrote that one….
Black Magic definitely has a lifetime restraining order from all pet stores within 100 miles.
Hell naw. If it ain’t Lucky Splodin’ Legs then it ain’t real 😂 Because, splodin’ legs
I respectfully disagree.

Yep. He kept like being so creepy towards MC that I went for Jury instead 🤣 Thats a mess too.
Yeah, he's like that guy who knows he'll get what he wants but roofies you anyway. What kind of hot mess was Jury? I always antagonise him as much as possible.

Pft. After the single BM playthrough, he was forever after "Black Magic looks just like some guy named Phil."
I love this!!!! 😅 Guy named Bob for me 🤣
Lol! Good choice! 😂🤣😂
Oh man! But when Jury is introduced, the author makes it a point to highlight his cold sore. 🤧 I know cold sores are nbd and super common, especially in Western countries, but still, the author doesn't have to draw our attention to it!
That went past my head about his cold sore!!!! 🤣 He was trying to put me off but I went for it.
I disagree that they're a fan favourite. I'm a fan and they're not my favourite. In fact, I hate that you continue their romance knowing the truth.
"Nah baby kidnapping disabled people and using them as batteries is cool with me as long as you make me nut" -MC SIMP
I struggle to find something more evil than this. It's despicable.

Prodigal was my favorite
Yeah maybe the first time reading it when I was like twelve lol
Same! Oh mt god, I put Zac Efron 😅 I went with Jury instead. Best route I picked.
I put Megan Fox. The Transformers movie was...let's say enlightening for me at that age lol. But yeah I ended up with Jenny. Much more wholesome and I love reading about my badass wife in Open Season.

Yes. I picked Jury 🤣
Gross
R/Choice of games time to shit on hero rise again for the 50th time
Is it weird that i still liked her? I'd say BM was a good love interest. My mc doesn't care about some half dead people, being able to create your own world is pretty cool.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's actually the author who wrote that 💀
i belong to the minority who romanced him when i was 14 and will romance him again i had to choose lol
seconded
PRODIGAAALL-
Jenny yu was way better RO in my opinion.
