Academy's Undercover Professor sort-of review?? Lol (Part 1) (because there's a photo limit apparently)
A few days ago, I binged another manhwa in two days. What do I have to say about Academy's Undercover Professor? MC IS SO DAMN HOT???? AND BADASS??? SIGN ME UP!
(Kind of out of context spoilers if you didn't read it and plan to? Like, just screenshots of MC? But I also comment them, so expect spoilers there lmao)
He's DAZZLING
Scary bastard
Low bun, yes sir 🫠 he's sad here, but he's so charming... hot damn
And his internal monologue is funny lmao
"Shounen protagonist," says the MC about a Harry Potter-esque character. Literally, the adventures of that trio really give me a Harry Potter vibe
I mean??
Look at that kid lmao dollar store Harry Potter at your service. Like, at this point, the similarities are funny to me
If I had a nickle for every time a fictional character borrows Moriarty’s name, fully knowing who James Moriarty is, I'd have two nickles. Which isn't a lot, but it's funny that it happened twice. Albeit, Klein only used the Moriarty part. The first name was stolen from Sherlock in his case
Even so, I bet Rudiger is not the first nor last character to do this. I fully endorse it heh. It's amusing to me
EPIC PANEL! SLAYYYYY (literally)
Professor Rudiger Chelsea, please have some mercy on us poor folk 😢 you're just too stylish
Yassss king! Be an underworld kingpin slayyyy <33
Majestic. Absolutely majestic man.
WAIT WHAT, 10 PHOTO LIMIT?? I HAVE MORE SCREENSHOTS, I'm making a part 2 lmao
ANYWAY, you get the idea. I am infatuated with this man. Nothing unusual.
Storywise, the twists and turns are really entertaining. I looked into the novel, if it was worth a read after LOTM. A lot of reviews aren't that kind, citing it is repetitive and cliché, but if it's done right, I enjoy that type of stuff. So I'm letting it marinate a bit, so it can have a good translation lmao
I adore smart, badass MCs, so this seems like my cup of tea. It's really interesting how we're 60 chapters in and we still don't know Rudiger's real name, only past fake identities. And those identities are impressive! He's like a jack of all trades, it keeps things interesting
Also, the fact that he needs to be cautious on multiple fronts really adds a bit of anxiety in the mix, it keeps me on my toes.
(His poker face is hilarious lmao)
INCOMING PART 2

Urza: Do not patronize me! If there is something wrong with me that I don't know about, then you owe it to me as my subordinate to tell me!
Gerrard: Alright. You're a narcissist, you're a sociopath, you're probably a psychopath, you're a-
(Few minutes later.)
Gerrard: …you're paranoid, sexist, and you make fun of the elderly.
Urza: These are just quirks!

"His feats are something which you’dnarrate to your kids and grandkids. Imagine instilling a feeling of ‘never being beaten’to an entire city. Walk into a pub or bakery in Liverpool and everyone’s got either a Beatles or Steven G story. There’s this cliché ‘no player bigger than the club’ but Gerrard has come closest to breaking it. Steven Gerrard is Liverpool and Liverpool is Steven Gerrard. A true Shakespearean tragic hero."

The Royals’ Jeweler Just Unveiled a Limited-Edition Pin and Pendant for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee
Platinum Jubilee with four days of events next month, but the British jeweler Garrard is getting the festivities started a little bit early.
Garrard has created a limited-edition pin and pendant honoring the monarch’s 70 years on the throne. The Jubilee pin features the jeweler’s iconic Sovereign motif around a 4.9-carat London Blue topaz. Resembling a peacock feather, the piece can pull triple duty as a lapel pin, a hair jewel or a hat accessory, according to Garrard. The Royal Blue Aloria enamel pendant showcases a similar deep blue on one side and white diamonds on the other
The jeweler has a long history with the British royal family. Founded in 1735 by the silversmith George Wicks, Garrard was tapped for a royal commission by Frederick, Prince of Wales, the very same year. In 1843, it become the first ever official crown jeweler, and its notable designs include everything from Queen Mary’s consort crown to Princess Diana’s engagement ring. More recently, in 2018, on the occasion of Queen Elizabeth’s 65th coronation anniversary, the jeweler unveiled the massive 118-carat Jubilee Sapphire brooch.
As for the newest pieces, the Sovereign motif found in both the one-of-a-kind pin and the enamel pendant actually dates back to 1910. Its creation was inspired by the legendary 530-carat Cullinan I diamond, which was added to the Sovereign’s Scepter that year. Now the motif has been reimagined for the modern era in both a striking and subtle way.
“For the Jubilee, I wanted to create jewels that celebrated our incredible royal history and design,” Prentice said.
Mission accomplished. Both the new pin and pendant will be available to buy online starting May 21. The pin, of which there is only one, is asking $17,000
