I think it would've been a lot more interesting as an eccentric elf because I don't like a story that runs on a lie for a long while but hey it can become pretty good regardless

Art is decent, the setup is interesting since it can go either direction, fully against the elves or side with the elves against the humans

Interested to find out why the MC was exiled and his reasons for wanting back in with the royal family

I feel like it'll be a double double-cross.

Yeah I think so too, a reversal of fortune kingdom building, sort of a slaves to power civilization type manga minus the usual isekai wouldve been good (like that goblin isekai one with the glasses). The twist at the end kinda pigeon holes it into more short term court intrigue and is gonna make it a lot more difficult to make it good... and to survive in jump. though kingdom building would also have it rough in jump.

The lifespan disparity and societal adaptability topics that got introduced are going to be important and i was looking forward to it more on the previous course it was hinting at the start than the way its unfolding at the end. Not sure how the elves are supposed to meaningfully change in the timespan of this manga given what we've been told about them unless it goes multigenerational. Either way I hope it gets addressed in a satisfying way.

okay, this looks promising. however, i also agree that him being a human in elf disguise made it kinda less interesting. but hey, we'll see
