Congrats on finishing, sorry for clowning your kids every chapter neyehe
I think you've received a lot of praise for juggling a large main cast, and I wholeheartedly agree. It's very hard to strike a balance between having characters who are just a collection of memorable tropes, and having all of them read like real people, and that's what cumpid's BL does the best. Your characters are vibrant and colorful and the way they interplay with each other is unique, but slots into that niche of feeling exactly *right.*
Something else that struck me for a while is how you created a romcom in the fairly sad premise of dead children trying their best >:( there's a lot to be said for how good you are at controlling the tone and letting the romcom shine through despite trapping your characters in a hell dimension for a whole arc (OP hates caves)
And on a parting note, I'd like to mention how much I absolutely love and envy how well you've adapted your style to the genre. A lot of writers fall into the trap of over embellishing just because they can, but the way Cumpid was written was like the story itself--sweet, fun, and a very good representation of kids running straight towards their happy futures.
