Hello loves <3 Now that Season 2 is underway, I thought it would be a good time to ask for some feedback on how the reading experience is coming along for you guys. If you missed the first feedback poll, you can view it here . Also, I'm opening this poll only to Fast Passers for now, so feel free to discuss Fast Pass episodes in here.

Important disclaimer - Because this always comes up whenever I ask for feedback, I want to assure you guys that I KNOW this is my story, and  I WILL tell it the way I want to.  Rest assured that this poll and the opinions of readers does not, and will not change anything about how I'm telling the MPL story. However, reader feedback is always helpful because it informs me on how much screen time I should allocate to what types of plot, or if I'm falling behind on any aspect of the storytelling process. Some of y'all might already know that I'm a hardcore romance buff so my personal  vote will always go to more Poppy/Tora romance 🥂🥂🥂

Feel free to vote and leave your comments and feedback below. Critiques are welcome, but please be gentle - my wretched brain has a very unfortunate habit of retaining and rehashing the 'negative' over the 'positive', oy vey  🤷🏻‍♀️

Let's begin!

Mori

Sis the fandom is horny get ready for the steamy option to get those votes😅

Ambrose

What about the "looking for more wholesome Poppy/Tora" scenes? :)

Michelle Moore

But seriously I love the direction we are taking & the path we are currently on!!

Tina Olavarria

Is it bad that I clicked everything cause I just want more 😂😂😂😂

GenshinIchigo

A little softcore porn never hurt anyone 😌

melistave

i personallu love seeing the story develop between poppy and tora, and i'd love to know more about tora's life, but i think you've paced it well and am cool with the speed of progress you've set up. :)

Bea

I love sexy Tora and Popps but I'm here for the story hun so however you do it I'll support it! You've been amazing and yes I can't wait for that big tiger to pounce that little hamster but I'm ready to wait as long as necessary! I love this story

Courtney Bare

I'm here for all of it! Although there serial tensions, got me wanting way more! Love the story and the cliff hangers Although I wish I wouldn't have to wait. But I'd wait for as long as you need for me to see these two continue to grow! ❤❤ love your writing🥰❤❤

Vera_P5

I LOVE EVERYTHING you do Lily!!! I take whatever is there and I feel that there’s an equal amount of romance, sexy time, and mafia in the story. It’s PERFECT IMO!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Tele_Novella

I really want to see their relationship grow stronger 😍

MK802

Dead serious - if you ever made a novel out of this, I would run not walk to the nearest pre-order option. You are a gifted storyteller, lilydusk!!

VPshhh

I love the romance and back story aspects of this comic and am enjoying the pace I can be a little gremlin though and wish I could devour more content faster but am really into how the story is moving as it is Really looking forward to how more of Tora's backstory is going to play out

Emma Annunziato

I’d genuinely love to see them cuddle is that weird? Lol

💕author eurydice fiori 💕

more sexy time, of course 😂 but also, Lily, I think the story is moving along just fine! and I mean that from the bottom of my heart 💕🙏🏽

Luz Cuaboy

I wish I could click the both 1 and 2 but I’ll go with 2 for now 😉😉

Ghosti

Personally I like a little action in my stories but coming to the Patreon for the spicy stuff keeps me happy till things progress in the story

Ororo Munroe

Please and thank you more Tora.

kirosm

I honestly like the pace it’s going. I don’t feel like anything is lacking. I don’t feel like it’s too slow or too rushed. I like slowly finding out information versus having a lot thrown at me and being expected to catch all of the hints and red herrings then trying to make sense of things.

Gina Miyazaki

OK I couldn't help but vote for nearly all of them, but um hello I did not even realize sexy time was allowed on Webtoon and if it is please sign me up 🙋‍♀️

Jessica Rodriguez

This is one of my favorite webtoons, thank you for all of your hard work!!

Anastacia

I love everything you’ve written so far, but I feel my vote is slightly swayed due to the amount of smut books I’ve been reading thanks to TikTok… also all of the secret garden drawings that make me swoooon.

Analy Salas

I love everything as you are creating it! Thank you!

STEPHANIE HORN

I love sexy extras that are canonical and tie into the story at large, especially when they come from Tora's viewpoint.

Sunshine Fuu

*cackle* I mean, I love it all and am grateful for any bit of story you give, but I've officially joined the brass section to assemble the Horn crew. You guys are amazing.

Noshoutouts

As much as I would love to see some 🎉🎉🎉 between them, I just think it would be more meaningful and impactful later when more of a relationship is established between them and the notebook thing is resolved, esp since everyone is hiding it from Poppy. I’m honestly just here for the ride at this point I am enjoying the unpredictability.

Christina Agan

Okay....so is there a option for “I just really wanna see Tora and Poppy snuggle and have some cutesy time?” Because I legit want that so much. Also, I miss Quincey. I’d be happy with a whole episode just following Quincey around and just have him be Quincey.....

LW

I love it no matter what ❤️ I'm good with whatever happens lol

BegoniaRex

Honestly, I have loved every single episode this season so far in one way or another. I feel like season 1 was a very extended prologue and now we're really getting into things. I would like to see more romance but I feel like that's coming along and they're getting closer and closer. I am SO curious about Goliath and what his role is in the larger story, which I'm sure you will tantalizingly unspool for us. I personally love sweet, tender emotional moments over overtly sexusl stuff, as it feels more impactful to me. But I am totally on board with where you're taking things and have been enjoying the ride so far!

PotatoSquish

So it's fine as is because it's honestly perfect. I'm expecting an increase in sexual tension, romance, and some more mafia/secrets stuff surrounding it. So if I'm right that that's kinda the plan anyway, I am HERE for it. I'm just impatient and this slow burn is so good I'm waiting for more between the love birds.

Aznkittie

Love love love MPL. I made someone who absolutely loathed reading manga/webtoon anything LOVE MPL! This girl like never ever wanted to read anything like this. MPL opened her world!

Jocelyn Quarstad

Personally, I feel that the story itself is fantastic and progressing well all-around. Of course, I want (and I'm sure 99% of the other readers want) more sexy time scenes, but that's also why there's the Secret Garden updates 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I guess maybe as some feedback, more canon sexy time Secret Gardens?🤔🥴 We all seemed to go nuts for them recently 😂 Otherwise, keep doing you Lily! We love you and the story no matter what!💜

Emily Basso

I think Poppy and Tora’s relationship is unfolding wonderfully. I think the build up is making me want them to fuck like rabbits. But I also love the organic real feel of how their relationship is unfolding. The tension is DELICIOUS. But I do also want more depth in the long game. More mafia background. More past events that lead to who they are today. I live for the childhood questions. The getting to know you interview thats lead to understanding why people are the way they are today. And the people in their lives are a major part of who they are. So seeing the Mafia/friend/adoptive family of Tora and the mysterious Past of Poppy’s family will make seeing who they are and why they are approaching this relationship the way they are all the more glorious.

Christina Agan

Is Goliath a “mystery?” Because I wanna know what our sneaky blue boy has been doing....besides jumping off cliffs....

Kseniaaa

Me: for everything) my dad: where is hentai?)))) Well~ of course I want some hot stuff too 😅 as much as webtoon allows to))))

Antonia Moore

Why is there no all of the above option?

Aznkittie

Anyway back to the whole point… love the tension, love the romance. I’m a huge romance buff and I love the comic relief that they have in their love story. I’m excited to see how the story opens and I’m hoping poppy is able to stay safe from Toras mafia side.. like she’s never found and used against him. That would be horrible. However, I’m very excited to see where it all goes! Thanks for all the NSFW stuff too. Wooo a way to get a woman going! Hahaha.

Sinny

I'm stuck on the sexy thing because horny brain says they need to fuck NOW but for the purposes of actual good story telling, the slow build up both makes it better/more intense and makes me like both characters more for actually building a relationship and having boundaries. The romance and sexual tension is definitely the meat of it for me... But I think it would lose some of its impact if it was constant. The secret gardens help a lot lol.

Christina Agan

And I love when you toss humor into the episodes. I live for silliness, and what you’ve given us cracks me up so much. Please sprinkle the humor.

Nikki Fricker

The poll just shows how much of drooling hyenas we are 🤣

lily_ofthevalley

I voted 3 options 😅 because honestly this is my favorite webtoon for a damn GOOD REASON. It's perfection and I'm obsessed. So it is most definitely fine as it is. But im also hot for tora like the rest of us so I can't help the thought of feeling blessed with even more sexy scenes between him and poppy, and also more badass scenes in his mafia element 🥵😎

Becks

It's amazing as it is! The progress of their relationship and the story is fantastic. For sure I would love for them to go past kissing, but the way they're building up to it is awesome. I love how real it is. Thankfully we have the secret Gardens. Definitely can't wait for more mafia secrets, it's going to be exciting to see what we learn and how Poppy takes it all. I'm very curious about her mother too. As impatient as I am, the way everything is progressing is fantastic. Keep doing what you're doing, you're doing an amazing job! Thank you for your hard work.

MaeT

I’m living for the romance and more with poppy and tora together is always gonna be my pick! But I also know them suddenly living in each others pockets doesn’t make narrative sense.

Krystal

As a person who agonizes over those "I am not a robot" captcha quizzes that says "choose all the pictures that have a crosswalk in them" and one kiiiiinda does in the bottom right corner...I don't feel like any of these choices really captured my sentiments lol As it is known, I am a theorist, so I be needing answers. If not answers, more clues. I am as invested in the mafia plot/ the Tora, Quincey, Gyu dynamic, and backstory as I am in the progressing romance. I'm also a horny goat who absolutely loves a slow burn but needs to vent sometimes. It's not lost on me that it has only been 3 weeks for them but I want some confessions lol

Tina-z

Honestly your work is just perfect!!, maybe the story is a little slow for me but thats just because i like everything to happen fast. Anyway, i like everything you’ve done, the mafia story, the comedy, the romance and of course the sexual tension between Tora and Poppy; just perfect as it is hon.

Emily

I’m here for it all! I came for the romance (and absolutely stellar art!); the mystery/mafia plots, characterizations, humor and growth hooked me. I’m a fan of couples dealing with obstacles together rather than being pulled apart by misunderstandings and “self sacrifice” so the honesty and comfort that’s developing is like catnip to me.

Isabel Gil

As much as I like the romance and The sexy story side, I'm Here too for the mafia plots and the backstories *A* But romance and sexy stuff is never enough for my horny brain 🤣

Kels

I've been curious about the Mafia theme but I think a lot of our questions will be answered later on once Poppy is fully aware of Tora's past/current position. She'll be thrown into that mess soon enough I bet, so I'll be patient 😅 Romance... Gimme all dat fluff. I think it is the perfect amount right now. Sexual tension is 🔥. If you give the big whambam to us now, we may demand more and more and I think Tora would pass out 😵😂. The comic relief is quite refreshing. I love the Gyu bits. Go Lily Go! You got this!!! ❤️

Janice Angelica

As much as I want to see their romance to build up, but I wanted to know where the notebook goes and the whole thing meaning behind all of this. I mean the original story plot. The dark, the gore (tho i'm not a fans of gore scenes haha)

Christina Agan

I want Poppy to realize that’s she’s beautiful and a wonderful person. That Julri lost a GODDESS and that Tora actually cares about her. I want to see her grow. As much as I love the idea of sexy time happening, they’ve only known each other for a short time and I think their relationship is coming along rather nicely. I’m fine with them not jumping into bed together right away. Either way, I’m here for character development just as much as plot.

larosamorada

I will never say no to Poppy and Tora screen time... whether it's sweet, sexy, angsty or dangerous. At the same time, I'm waiting for that bastard Vincent to pop back into the story...Scharch and his sadistic ways, and the ever elusive Goliath. I'm so down with the mafia mysteries and the depth of the plot. And maybe this is going out on a limb... But something I notice a lot in romance WT's is they end with the couple banging/getting married/etc. I would love to see a budding sexual relationship in the most realistic form. Let them fuck for half the series. I'm totally here for stolen nights together, the "are we just in this for the sex or is it more" plotline, and ya know... Not everyone is a virgin until their wedding night. I'm here for whatever you wanna do Lily, but as long as you're taking requests...how about Poppy get some kinks along the way 😈😈😈

Andrea

I LOVE Tora’s internal monologues and his impressions of things unfolding. It made the steamy scenes so much more intense. It shows more how their relationship is evolving when we hear it from him. He is reflective in S1. The romantic pacing is going really well. I also can’t wait for some Lake Secret Garden.

Lori Miller

I want more of everything!! The story is so good, it’s impossible to choose. I suppose more Poppy/Tora is top. I love watching their relationship progress. I want all the romance. Both of their back stories and histories are really interesting too. And more Quincy and Tora bro time. So, everything. Thank you for such an entertaining story.

DesRoj

I love this series! If I had to choose, it’d be the romance and sexy time! 😍🥰😍🥰

Hayley Tymczyszyn

I LOVE seeing Tora’s POV on certain scenes, and how he interprets getting Poppy’s attention IE the Fallen Angels club storyline and his inner monologue of “this is why I don’t drink.” I love seeing his point of view when it comes to Poppy.

Michaela Kaleja

Your webtoon is one of my first top list to read 💖and your comic is going amazing im happy with equals amount of romance,sexy,backstory about tora and poppy and mafia in the story. I'll support it 🙏and Keep all your hardwork 👏❤ Lilydusk

Nicole Vogt

I really love when you do these polls! I think it’s so much fun to see the diversity in the group ❤️

Rebecca C Lewinski

God, I love ALL OF IT. Graphic novels I think by their nature unveil a story slower than bingeing through a regular novel. It's not possible to distill a whole chapter of 3000 to 5000 words into a few dozen frames... I think you are doing GREAT.

Maria E.

As much as I adore the romance and am eagerly awaiting any sexy time, I really love how you've been rolling out the story. I will always be eager and anxious for more relationship development and plot development and mystery solving, but I'm excited every week. And I think keeping your readers eager and anxious and excited is a mark of a great story teller. I vote for continuing exactly as you've been doing. I look forward to seeing more of this world you've created and this story you've written. 🐯❤

Alec Haukeness

I LOVE as is. Will always be here for the romance but so excited to learn how Tora will navigate his current situation with Poppy and his role in the mafia. But however you’re telling it is working. So, thank you for all your hard work!!!

MarieEclaire

Sex-E- time!! 🙌 Yes, I like how it is already, though. It's a romance/crime/thriller all balled into one!

Emilee Niebel

I love Poppy and Tora time together. I love their moments, them learning each other, and Poppy finding herself. So of course I'd love that sexy time too! I love the story and where it's going. My feedback would be sort of revolving around the moments without dialogue. In my personal opinion, I think this is where the confusion about pacing is coming in for people. I totally understand pauses add and are saying something without saying something! I think it would just help add clarity if I knew what I should be feeling during the silence moments. Sometimes I honestly can't tell if it's an awkward pause between Toppy, if it's Tora being moody, just meaningful silence, or the kind of quiet that happens before everything goes down. I get confused and I have to read it like 5 times. Maybe it's because Tora has been so stoic lately 😅 I hope I was being gentle enough! I try but it's hard with the internet. I love this last episode!

juju

Heavy breathing. Bobby needs the pit removed okai Lily. But also more on her career, Goliath's death and if Tora will have to sacrifice his relationship if Bobs gets in endangered.

Sarah Hernandez

While I may have voted for some (More sexy time for Pops and Tora, the mafia, and about her mum (which is the one I'm curious about the most)) just know Lily, I mean this from the bottom of my heart I love the story just how it is and I know all of it will happen when the time is right and it annoys me how I have seen some comments saying "It's just Poppy and Tora flirting back and fourth" and I'm just like "Uh...are you new to romance? You must be cause if you weren't you would know that romance series start with the main couple getting to know each other and flirt a lot and all the drama and action will come later in the story when the time is right" Which is why I also voted the story is fine as it is❤️

Audrey

I’m a slut for smut

Kritzia

I love Poppy and Tora together and I love the back stories for these characters it’s just so great! Overall the story is going great because you give us enough plot with sprinkles of cute moments between them that keeps me coming back for more. Idk I just love this story and am excited to see what you pull out next.

mina griffith

Muahahaahahah thirsty thirsty thirsty. 🤣 Burst out laughing once I saw the poll percentages, aint gonna lie, I too am parched. One of us, One of us 👏👏🤤😏

Hyena

Honestly, I think the story is extremely well balanced and I appreciate all of the world building and side characters that you have put time and effort into! It gives the story and romance so much more to cling onto. Poppy and Tora will always be #1 but I'm in love with the world that you have created!! 🖤

B. D. Church

As one writer to another, keep doing what you’re doing at the speed you’re doing it. All in good time. You don’t want to rush it and make it feel unnatural and I think you have done a pretty good job so far. Keep up the good work!!👍👍❤️❤️❤️

Lou Schoenhult

Both romance + sexy time plz 😍😍😍

Alexa Seeger

As for the romance, ENOUGH IS NEVER ENOUGH. Seriously though, I’m eating it up, I’ve really enjoyed all the Poppy/Tora time this season.

Jennifer

I love how pervy we all are 😂😂

Mari

I love how lily knows her fans. She knows we want more poppy ans tora spicy romance. Like she knows what's up 😏

JaxStarGazer

I have to really dig deep to answer your feedback because I’m so satisfied with how this is progressing. Especially between Tora and Poppy. I feel like there’s been a huge shift in Poppy since confronting Julri and I am so here for that. So I feel like we’re getting those cute and sexy moments between them enough to keep the pacing realistic with how long they’ve known each other and the progression of how they both feel. I’m confident in your story telling that we’ll see some stolen sexy time and fluffy and humour sprinkled through to keep a great balance. The humour especially you weave into it seamlessly and I always find something that makes me genuinely laugh aloud. As for the rest of it, the mafia/Quincey/Poppy mum/Goliath mystery, of course I’d love to see all of that. And I’m thoroughly enjoying the tidbits and clues to make us theorise. But again, I know we’ll get there because you’ve written it like this for a reason and I’m down for whatever happens. So yeah, no idea if that’s helpful feedback or not, but thank you Lily for giving us the options to leave feedback and creating a fantastic story in the first place for us thirst/theorise over. ❤️

Sharni

Equal parts romance and sexy time. 💛

Alayne Austin

I would love to vote for a few things, I have so many questions about all the mafia, Poppy's mom and Goliath, but I am also very much all for the on screen romance and the sexual tension. That last episode I think since it dropped I have read 40 times. One of my all time favorite episodes. 🥰🥰 Thank you again Lily for this amazing and beautiful story, it makes my heart sing with happiness. 🥰🥰 Your story gives me life and I look forward to keep reading every week

Maudie

Regardless of what you bring to the table, regardless of what anyone wants from this story, I'm here for you and absolutely anything and everything you share with us 💕 love and appreciate you so much Lily!

Michele Frueh

Thanks for the poll. I voted for no changes, as I am loving how you're telling this story. Your artwork and hard work have made us fans, Lily. No other author has made me care enough about their fictional characters for me to want to picture them in reality. But when you revealed how tall Tora was, I got out my measuring tape, and marked it with blue painter's tape on my door frame to create a visual reference! Then added a piece of tape to mark Poppy's much shorter height. I left them up as a reminder. Kudos to you!

Chai

I voted for the sexual tension, HOWEVER, I don’t think that it’s “not getting anywhere” I actually prefer keeping the tension! The nuances of their relationship are so important, and I can’t get enough of the slow burn. That and I want some more Mafia action, and bring back Pinky and the gang ❤️

PetitLikeMe

I love MPL from the bottom of my heart and I appreshiate all the time you spend on that story, giving us the chance to read it, Lily. So I just wanna give a minor feedback from my perspective and in no way I want to imply with that, that I don't know how much time each panel takes to make. Here we go: Sometimes I feel like the panels are missing one more panel inbetween for the transition. Like in the last chapter, last panel: Poppy suddenly has her arms around Tora, but a "second" ago they both were talking and the arms are not in sight. I feel like a panel where Poppy places her hand on Toras shoulder or something to imply what follows next, like just that they're stare into each others eyes without talking or so, was what I personally missed there.

Rdpz24

I voted, fine as is. The build/sexual tension is always the best part of a budding relationship (to me) and for Poppy and Tora both wanting to be cautious I feel the speed it is going is perfect for two unsure and kind of scared characters. Yes wanting some of the side story questions lingering out there answered would be cool, but every time the main focus isn't on Poppy and Tora I'm sad lol! I personally think the length of each week's is good as is also, it's best to get quality over quantity. Even though I'm always guilty of crying at the end bc its over til the next week lol, I know sometimes life has other plans for how much time you have to spend on working.

Hannah

I absolutely love mpl and I'm really liking the story so far this season everything feels pretty good so far

Rachel Torres

Food for thought: this poll is gonna lean towards sexy time since a lot of your patreons were attracted here for your NSFW content. If you were able to run the same poll on webtoons directly, I suspect you would get different results

CL

Still trying to figure out how Tora lost his tucked in, very tight fitting, long-sleeved, turtleneck shirt but Poppy's flimsy little barely there top remained firmly in place. Things that make you go hmmmm. Must be the spaghetti straps holding down the fort, right? Lol! I love this story. Waiting for him to touch her someplace totally inappropriate!

Christina Agan

-whispers- I also miss the Thuglet shenanigans.....

Life is beautiful

Honestly, I love it. A year ago or so, I would have never thought I would be so immersed in to a "webtoon" I had never heard of such a thing. I was just minding my own business and OMG the most beautiful golden eyes looked right back at me. He was wearing a suit and I would ignore it but then my Instagram kept bumping me to this scary guy who was handsome and I had to finally see what it was all about. I fell head over heels for Tora and the plot and omg Poppyland! So much one of my close friends gave me a patreon link on my birthday and since then I have been here.

Ari Peacock

Hi Lily I'm sorry if you've already answered this question (I wish patron would give us reply notifications!) I was wondering how the censorship will be for sexy-time on webtoons? If you are forced to limit it, would you give us the Uncut version here in secret garden?

Tara Taylor

Well, i had no idea what to pick as i love the slow build romance, but i also really would love to get the sexy times, but thanks to Juniebug (so cute that her hubs calls her that) reminding us in the last episode, it has only been a few weeks since Poppy dumped that waste of space Julri, im prepared to wait a while for the sexy times 😁 i picked its fine as it is, because honestly i just love reading MPL and it really is progressing just fine, but im secretly really glad we get all the secret garden stuff on here 😏🥵😋

Kayleigh Colvin

Okay but this is hard to choose i like all the options in the poll 😂

LouCas27

Giyu and the Thuglets 😜

Firefly

I like a slow but hot fire. Take you're time teasing me with Poppy's and Tora's romance.

Julie F

I voted for the last option. However, here's my take on all of this start of the second season: I find (and this is my personal opinion and my feelings) that the story progresses more slowly. Like a kind of slow motion in the evolution of the story and the characters. So yes, I hope from the bottom of my heart that the relationship between Poppy and Tora advances in a positive way, but ... not at the expense of the story. What I like about this webtoon is the realism of the characters. They are believable and i can feel a lot of work on your part, Lily. That's what I like and I think I told you before. I like the plot around the mafia. I'm curious (very) about Poppy's mother. I'm making a whole bunch of theories about her. In fact. It's the whole story that I love. Not just the romance, not just the sexiness. It's a whole. As said above, I want the relationship between Tora and Poppy to move forward, but not at the expense of the common thread I don't want to read that. And I hope, I cross my fingers that they have a happy ending. Even if I suspect that they will have to overcome a lot of obstacles, that it will not be easy for them. But it's just a wish. Again, the important thing is that the story is believable and well brought up.

Rosie Fillythechino

I like how it’s going right now! I think what hooked me to the series was how it was the perfect amount of everything and it’s so weird to say because usually people want the characters to kiss so soon and I’m like “hehe don’t kiss just yet, let it BUILD!!!!” lol!! I think it’s very organic but I’m a sucker for romance and a hint of jealousy from one of the two. I miss Quincey and would love to learn more about Tora but again, the pace is very nice so even then I can wait for however long it takes for back stories.

Sarah Miller

I love the story and how it’s going. The romance and sexy stuff will come in time (which I can’t wait for) but I love the story having so many different facets. I love how you touch base on by all of them building up without loosing touch on other components of the plot. I will say I love the secret gardens when the plot is more emotionally involved!

babyanvil

I wanna see even more character growth from Tora and Poppy when they're in separate scenes. Like taking what they're learning from being with each other and improving themselves for their own sake, too. I understand that neither of them, especially Tora, are emotionally prepared for major things though. But little things here and there. 😊 I hope that makes sense...

Rayvin 🦇⛓️‍💥🖤 🔮

I voted for sexy time but that’s because I adore how well you write NSFW scenes. They always feel authentic, not like a performance. I LOVE the slow build up and the tension you’ve created though! Otherwise, truly the only thing I’m dying to see is why Tora and Gyu were crying in the locker room, that’s the biggest mystery for me.

Ester-bean

I feel like my comment will not be very helpful, but it's my truth: I love MPL as it is. The balance is just perfect. Trust your genius instincts 😌❤ Literally: the first thing I say that I love about this webtoon is that there is action in every episode. There are no long stretches of build up to a mediocre plot point. I sincerely don't understand how anyone thinks the story is slow.... I literally am I huge fan because I think it's NOT slow compared to other webtoons 😅 maybe someone can explain their point of view to me? I'm always willing to listen, though I may respectfully disagree 💕

Ericha Gramblin

I love this story how it is! I honestly wouldn’t mind for it to keep going like it is. I would loveeee to see some more sexy time 😂. But I also love how they are truly getting to know each other and I want to get deeper into Tora’s past . I def want to see about Poppylans Mom though. Seeing if she actually has any ties to the Mafia would be interesting! Honestly at the end of the day you’re doing an amazing job and I will take whatever comes my way through the story line! It keeps me entertained during stressful times!

Tatyana Colon

I'm honestly enjoying the story for what it is. The options you gave are all part of the story sometimes it's a little more serious talking about mafia stuff sprinkled with that comedic relief. Sometimes it gets spicy and/or adorable like last episode and I am here for it. I love the pace that the story develops and I wouldn't change it.

Lisa Rora

Im here for all the reasons listed in poll! Lol I love how complex your story is! I think you are balancing it well. While I can see people wanting to see more mafia plot, it is stated earlier that he's been drifting away from the action, and that he has to come back eventually. Also I loved Tora's men appearance at his birthday party.

Haley Halstead

I am here for all of the reasons listed, but when you say that the sexual tension isn’t getting anywhere I kind of disagree. I like the slow burn, if it’s too easy then there wouldn’t be anything to get excited about romance wise.

Eva Rodríguez

Can you even choose? The story is amazing! But my fav fav fav panels are always with Tora and Poppy in them❤️ im in love with their chemistry! ❤️😻

Wendy H

Hope it's fine I picked all but adding to the comedy since I find some parts go be funny in at least the expression and dialog. Though at the end of the night, I honestly am thankful for any content you create since it's been awesome so far.

Brittany John

In my opinion, I think, the sexual tension in the story is fine as it is, for me. However, I would like Tora to open up about his feelings for Poppy. I think it's time to have that conversation, what is their relationship. Boyfriend, girlfriend, or are they still just friends?

Tiffany Krug

I love where it's going and I feel so content with how you've delivered it, but I am eager for more angst coming from the mafia side. But I know that will come in due time so I'm being patient!

Leanne DuPree

I would love to see more Canon secret gardens associated with the story line. 😍

Erin S.

Loving everything so far, but story gremlin brain wants more of everything, so it's hard to choose! I know Lily is only human! But for real, I'll take more of everything, but the pacing has been great so far this season. The Story is progressing and plot points are having time to breathe without feeling like it's jumping around constantly trying to juggle multiple storylines at the same time. But there are things the story gremlin *needs* to know more about! Goliath, in general; Poppy's mom; what secret was Granny keeping; what did Tora and Quincey do to save Gyu; what's Tora's relationship with detective Lane??? All the questions!!!

Keely

I’m here for all the above lol

Alice

Definitely loving season two. I am looking forward to seeing T/P’s relationship continue to grow, and the romance and physicality that comes with that! Also excited to see how the plot develops. Great storytelling and beautiful art!

Cassandra Reddick

First of all, the story is ALREADY PERFECTION 😭🥺♥️! However, I did choose the “sexy time” poll (I mean come on, I haveee too haaha 🤤😂😂). Upon looking at the other poll options though, I just wanted to comment and say I am also interested in learning more about Tora and his mafia backstory. We’ve seen the change in his eyes when that side of him takes over or when he needs to intimate or beat the shit out of someone (*ahem* Julri *ahem* XD), so I’d genuinely just be intrigued in how dangerous Tora can actually become IF he really needed to be 👀…

Adriana Sabedra

Hello, long time reader, first time commenter: I love the characters and I love the mystery. But the “will he”/“will she” is dragging and forever taking. I’ve stopped watching whole a** anime’s cause of that plot defect. That being said, MiPL is the only reason I keep webtoons on my phone. Every paycheck I buy extra coins so that I can read ahead. I can’t wait for the merchandise and I can’t wait for Tora’s and “Bobby’s” happily ever after cause they both deserve it.

Laura Chavez

That's a tough choice... like I'm soooooo here for the tension between Tora and Poppy, but at the same time I'm here for the mysteries of the series..... cuz I'm getting vibes that Poppy is def not that foreign to Tora's life because of how she so well accepted his involvement with the mafia(he's literallya hitman/bodyguard), most people would react to push away or tread carefully around him... and im thinking she also already read through the notebook/notes from Goliath, there's NO way she could have gone that long with out reading her documents before Gil got to them.. Ahhhh I could go on and on 😅

Avery Ann

I mostly lurk here, but I did want to come by and say that I ended up voting for a little release of the sexual tension and more mafia stuff. I think especially with the drop from Poppy in this last episode (I won't elaborate just incase folks haven't read it yet) I'm now so curious about this crossing thread in their lives! This story is so beautifully crafted and truly one of my favorites in Webtoon right now. Thank you for your hard work, and for this poll asking us what we think. (And belated congrats on your Ringo nomination!)

Schkaka

I think you are doing a fantastic job as you are. Keep up the good work.❤

Olga Kolusenko

It’s not too helpful but I’m here for EVERYTHING and ANYTHING in between.

30 Going on Confused

I absolutely love how the story is. As much as I would like to see a resolution to their sexual tension I'm aware that's how writing a story works to keep people coming back. It is dragging just a little, but I feel like the satisfaction is right around the corner. I would also like to see a little bit more about Tora, more along the lines from before and leading up to him getting adopted. But ultimately this is your story, tell it how you see fit! I will continue to love it and fast pass every week!

Jina Vargas

I see I’m not the only thirsty one… lol. I want to see a tad more romance and plot, but I REALLY want to see them breaking that tension and experiencing a sexual relationship that’s cannon.

Christina Agan

I think some of my favorite moments in these comics are the silly moments with them getting to be open with each other or the spontaneous comedy. So worth it! 💚🤣

comicbookwaifu

Can I choose more than one? Bc I’m definitely here for sexy time, more romance scenes, the mom mystery and Poppy’s “I am in the mafia as well” scene

Cora Moss

I just discovered MPL about 4 or 5 days ago and obsessively read everything, so my perspective is probably a bit different than people who have been following the story from the start at a slower pace. That being said... I will never complain about more romantic moments! Especially as Tora and Poppy both allow themselves to be emotionally vulnerable with each other. I don't mind the slower pace, because it feels very realistic to me (Poppy trying and failing not to withdraw when Tora doesn't respond, because of the years of manipulation and emotional abuse Julri put her through, really resonated with me) but I always love the tender moments and would love more of those. But I'm also really invested in the mafia storyline and the mysteries surrounding it (like if/how it connects to Poppy's mom), so I ended up voting for both romance and the mysteries. All that being said, I love the way the story is progressing as is, but a little more romance and a little more development of some of the plot mysteries would not go unappreciated!

S

I just want to say yes to everything. I would read 1000 Seasons of this. I love everything about it and the only thing that drives me crazy is having to wait a week each time. But patience is a virtue and great art and a beautiful story is worth waiting for. So yes, keep up the tension, the world building, the action, the intrigue, the sexy fun times (uwu), and the deep emotional healing they all need. I think we need more information on the Goliath situation soon because it is sort of the inciting incident for everything and the danger they are all in but it is very much forgotten 98% of the time because everything and everyone else is so much more compelling. It is absolutely the danger lurking and I would love to have a few more meaty teasers to know why and how it is motivating your characters and how this knowledge will change how we feel or what we know about them all. I think somewhere down the line, eventually, I would want to better understand how Quincy fits in with all this. He is not just the sassy, eccentric best friend or Tora’s Boss. He is heir apparent to a powerful crime syndicate. Why is he not more F-ed up and entitled? Is it because of Tora’s influence? What inspired his mutual loyalty to Tora and if his father suddenly died or was killed, what/how/if/would that stress change their relationship? Is Quincy wanting/looking forward to be in charge or is he just along for the perks? And if it all suddenly landed in his lap, what new danger does that bring to him and Tora and Poppy? Is Tora trying to get out of that life and is Quincy part of the escape plan, or a possible roadblock? And who else might have an interest in one or both of them leaving/staying? And if Tora left without Quincy, would Quincy be motivated to leave too, or to try to draw Tora back in? Or if Quincy was able to escape, would he make moves to get Tora out too? Because no matter how much Quincy loves Tora and vice versa, their other ambitions may or may not be in alignment. And how well do Poppy and Quincy function when book and Tora aren’t the motivation? Is Poppy someone that Quincy can/will respect and is Quincy someone Poppy can/will understand?

Hüskes

I wann toea and poppy run away from the Mafia and get lucky in a village far away

Shea

See this is hard because I’m here for mafia, poppy/tora romance, and sexual tension. This is my FAVORITE comic ever!!!!! You are amazing!!!

Mo

I'm here for all of it. Are we gonna find out about Poppy's mom? Where in the world is Goliath? Who has the black book? If Gil has it, are we gonna see more mafia action fr Tora and Quincy? Is Cordelia comin back? I love how she pushes Tora's button😆 maybe this time she makes him mark his territory with Poppy. Is Poppy the strawberry girl? I hope so..

TorasPoppySeed

I’m in love with everything about this story, the romance, the comedy, the mafia, all of it has made for one of the best stories I’ve ever read (and I’ve read a decent amount of stuff) I’m very satisfied with most of the pacing and plot development, cuz it feels very realistic, even in the “finding someone when you really should wait to heal from your next relationship, but when it’s the right person waiting is so hard, even when you SAY ‘we’re not dating’ but you do so much of everything together.” *looks at husband*… there are many parallels to my life (not mafia…but the tall dark and handsome troubled kid with a heart of gold) anywho. My point is, I find it hard to ask for anything to change because I trust you so much to do this right, because after all this time, it’s still beautiful and captivating and the story keeps throwing me surprises (most of them pleasant) I voted for almost everything…which I know isn’t helpful. But I do want more sexy, more romance (cuz I could just read a comic about all of Poppy and Tora just falling in love) But at the same time, it’s so intriguing to read because of the danger of the mafia, the almost forbidden love, the back story for why Tora (and Poppy) are the way they are. Finding out more about Tora in 75 was almost heartbreaking, and I loved it. I’m stuck in a horrible spot of I want to have all the story right now so I know how it ends, and I do not want to rush you, because this story needs to be done the justice it deserves, and also I never want it to end. All that to say, thank you Lily, I love MPL, it has helped me heal and recognize my own areas I need to improve, and has brought an extra bit of joy and light to my Friday’s, and most other days (especially SG days ;} )

Sara Perez

I’m caught somewhere between the story, romance, and get it on! Mostly because there’s some serious tension and not much progression - sexy time is necessary for them both as part of healing, but I get Poppy’s apprehension and Tora’s cherishing her and not treating her like a person with… shall we call it “loose morals”?

Kendall Merritt

There’s too much damn tension between them every time the moods right!!

Kendall Merritt

come on Tora, poppy’s too shy to initiate anything so TAKE THE DAMN PLUNGE AND START SMEXING‼️‼️‼️ I can’t take anymore of this sexy/romantic awkward hit n’ miss tensions 😖😖‼️‼️‼️

Anthalialovel25

To be honest lily you are the only creator that I’ve subscribed to and mostly here for the NSFW content. As for the story well,... since I can’t alway do the fast passes because waiting for new episodes it’s horrible lol umm I feel like there’s less special moments between Tora and Poppy. I would love more bad boy tender moments 🥰

kinkajou

Let me tell you, I’ve been LOVING the nsfw extra parts you drop here that webtoon won’t let you show over there. They’re so much fun

Stella K

I wanted to clarify that yes I'm anticipating the sexy time, but also only want to see it when they are both ready because I know it will be spectacular (like in AB) 😁

Angie Nail

This was so hars to choos becaus i love it all but i want to see how thwre relashonsip grows

Bedtime4Jesus

Is it weird that I picked all of them? I do have a serious question. Why are all the gangsters men? That scene early on in season 1, Tora bursts in on a meeting where the only woman is hanging off Vincent like an accessory. The unaffiliated street punks are all guys… just curious where the women are? Even if it’s for a reason like they aren’t allowed to become elite because the criminal world is misogynistic, what are they up to? What roles do they play other than lawyer, stripper, or eye candy?

Rhyn

I really feel like the story is in a good place for more sexy time. Aside from me being thirsty lol. Though the NSFW posts *really* help with this. XD

Kiki1177

For me, I feel like I want open communication between them as to what they are. I know Poppy didn’t want to commit (birthday conversation) but they both keep going back to each other whether it’s sexually or them protecting and caring for each other

Daymie

For me, I’m 100% invested in watching more Poppy and Tora Moments, but! I’m also very much interested in the mafia side of the story! We know that Tora didn’t want Poppy to be involved anymore but now she’s Quincy Editor! Will his Dad find out? Will He want to meet Poppy? The notebook!? Tora’s old friend Goliath how is he gonna affect the story!? So safe to say I’m very much very Invest in the story and I’m really excited to see how these little details get played in.

Mater Portentum

I’m here for the romance! I love the sexual tension between Tora and Poppy, but I don’t want to rush sexy time. I trust that the rest of the intrigue parts of the story will be revealed in good time, and I trust you with that. Overall, I’m super happy with the pace of the story so far this season!

Ms. CherryBlossom

Let me start with this: “MPL” had been my ultimate a favorite 😻 webtoon I have read so far. I am so addicted to it and how the story goes. I love the interaction between Tora & Poppy and their approximate. Lily, I alike to thank you for sharing with us this amazing story, that brings us a little bit of happiness, action, some sadness, spicy and of course romance. MPL, has all of this and you know how to deliver it. Every chapter is awesome. And I looooove that I am able to see the adult version over here 😉 you do a D**m good job girl 👧. With all said, I would love to see in good time more of Tora & Poppy interaction more handy more spicy, but like you said yourself: You will do it when the time comes. I will have just to chill and wait relax and wait until the time comes 😉 🥰 because I love my “Midnight Poppy Land” my breathtaking Tora & my sweetheart Poppy 🥰

Danielle DeLisle

I absolutely love MPL and everything about it. I don't necessarily want MORE of torra and poppy's romance because I'm equally invested in all if the separate story lines, its just the impatient part of me just wants them to be together literally right now😂

BlueCaty

The thirsty horde has spoken 😅🤣. I'm just fine with the current pacing and balance of the story, it has progressed perfectly imo.

Mishmonster

I love this story and love the surprise twists Lily writes that I would never think of adding. I did add a vote for sexy times because, as Dene would say, I'm a grown-ass woman with healthy desires, but I love the teasing & sexual tension too.

Lindsay

The #hornysquad is here for this poll 😂

Madeleine Siebert

As much as I like the sexual tension building up between Tora and the hamster, the reason I'm paying for your patreon is because I love your story writing skills ! I hope you feel confident about it, cause you're a damn good writer (above being a damn good drawer). So keep going, drive us where you want, I'm ready to follow !

Chesley Kelley

I voted for the sexy stuff haha but I really almost picked poppy’s mom. I need to know who she is already and what the heck possessed her to leave her child! In the end sexy time wins though.

Melificent

I chose sexy time but I'm more intrigued with Tora's parents possible "love" story... I'm Soo curious to see how gorgeous his mom is and how FINE his daddy could've been🙂

Fe

I love it all. In all honesty, it feels pretty balanced to me in terms of romance, comedy, backstory, etc. Just waiting on this to be a movie or a whole animated series lol. Not sure who could do Tora justice in real life, but I'm here for this whole ride, as is.

MerryBrandybitch

I love this story and have reread it multiple times and obviously finally subscribed here. I voted sexy times, but at the same time, I love the trust and relationship building going on. It’s so well done and realistic to two people with trust issues and trauma.

Erin Perez

Gotta say, it's really balanced. I know it feels like a true slow burn because we've been following this comic for more than a year, but honestly, it hasn't been that long for the characters. Not to mention the way you paint the mafia side is both glamourous and gritty. I would love smexxy times between the characters, but they're not there yet (and that's why we have the secret garden *evil smirk*). The art, the story flow and pacing, and the characters are all amazing! As long as you keep writing and drawing this story, I'll keep reading and squee-ing. ;)

Momo

How about all of these? They're all super interesting to tell the truth.

LeHart

I'm here for all of it. It's a wonderful story and I enjoy it exactly as is. However, I particularly look forward to the romance.

Kathleen

Honestly, I couldn’t choose. I’m here for it all. I find the story, in terms of each of these categories, balanced or (in the case of Poppy’s mom and other “secrets”) where we we haven’t gotten as many answers I’m trusting the storytelling process. With that said, there have been a few sections in Season 2 that I have found a little choppy and I had to go back and re-read (never really a hardship as I’m constantly re-reading MLP for shear enjoyment). The only reason I didn’t ultimately select any of the options is because each seemed kind of negative on the tail end ie: like if I’m here for and loving the comedy (which I am) that doesn’t necessarily mean the story has gotten too serious for me either… if that makes any sense? I love seeing Poppy and Tora together and I like how their story is unfolding- I’d love a couple episodes that don’t end with a cliffhanger or a million new questions 😛 but can’t fault that at all!

LadyKage

Quite honestly I’m loving everyone with MLP! So to be fair, I am happy with how everything is playing out. Yes I wanna see spicy Tora/Poppy moments but I love what is slowly building up in the mafia and all of the other mysteries!

Nichole A.

I love that we’ve seen Tora’s soft & emotional side! Would be cool the other side of that coin! Not necessarily “ruthless animal” more like “unequivocal assassin”

ElleChaos

I need more of it all ! I’m pretty sure a new episode could come out every day and I’d still feel that way. But I voted Sexy Mafia for obvious reasons 💁🏻‍♀️

Joanne Garcia

Im honestly here for all of it. I love it all

Madison Myers

I am here for it all but I would love to have the "smut" included in a possible separate version from webtoon? Like a volume one for M or adult audiences to enjoy. Cause lily, you are an EMPRESS with you story and the smut woven in. I love it.

Sarah

I really read and be screaming drop them draws Bobby lol

Trina Richards

Love the sexual tension it's done just right feels natural not like somthing interrupts them every single time or that first chance alone turns into a brooding love scene that leads one to believe that the first intimate time after a rush means lasting deep love.

Samantha Brackett

I love all of it and like someone said above, even if there were a new episode everyday I’d still want more! I truly hate all the negative thoughts and discussions ppl have about this WEBTOON. You are a great author and write this story so beautifully

Foooooo

I really enjoy when some humour is added in, I know it’s not a comedy series but it would be too heavy without it I think. Keep up what you’re doing, I think you have the balance of everything just right.

Tragicgal

I'm okay with 10+ seasons of MPL

Alicia Felmy

I am enjoying the story line, however I do find it a bit hard to read conversation bubbles in the correct order the first read through of a slide due to the placement. I'm not necessarily sure there's a fix for that, but thought I'd bring it up!

Laura L

To be honest, I want everything hahaha. Seriouslly, I really like how things are going. A lot of the time anxiety gets the best out of me and I want everythin to happen yesterday but the rithm is perfect as it is...esp after the last episode I would like them to stay there a little bit more, it took them a while to get there (both physically and emotionally), so I would like them to be able to enjoy it some more. Having said that, I also want to know more about their pasts and about Poppy´s relation with the mafia, etc.

Jamie LaMoreaux

personally, I'm enjoying the ride as it is. I LIKE the anticipation and slow build-up of their relationship. though I agree with the Immortal Queen in that, "I want it all, and I want it NOW." I like how you avoid most cliches and make your own way. it's original and keeps me wanting more. it seems to me, that a slowly built relationship lasts longer than those "flash in the pan" ones. well done Lily, very well done indeed.

Jilleen C

I voted, “it’s fine how it is” I like it all, and feel like it’s well balanced BUT having said that I’m partial towards the romance, the last couple of episodes have made my heart swoon. I just didn’t vote more romance because I think you are doing a good job balancing it right now,. I’m invested in the story as a whole so I’m here for the sexiness, mafia, comedy, plot mysteries, etc. but romance is what I care most about. Hope that made sense lol.

Michele M

Hard choice for me (went with romance—- but definitely feeling the “my god sexual tension” crowd….). I think that feeling is exactly what’s drawn me in— the baited breath feeling of anticipation- you want things to go further but the idea that you get to feel the roller coaster makes it all the better - because those flutters of “foreplay” are what make the 2nd act all the ,ore satisfying

Stefanie

I want sexy-romance-drama-time. Ya know?

Tania Roblot

I’m here for it all and honestly I think you are doing a brilliant job. Thank you!

Rebexxa

Goliath lol ok sorry

Katy

It's hard to pick just one! I feel like we did get more intimate poppy/tora time this season and while I'm always ready for more I want to see it happen naturally with the plot. I come here for the smut and webtoon for the drama/plot. I'm ready to see this Goliath mystery get wrapped up and learn more about Tora's past 🤗 as always thank you for the beautiful web comic I'll read it til the end no matter what 💜

Jill .

All of the above!!!

Brianna Makor

i wanna see tora and poppy’s backstory 😭😭

Christina Ravn

So... we are just a majority of horny people is that what we are getting at here? Because im ALL for it!

stacy Hanssen

I really love when the comedy peeks through into the romance.

SE

I’m late to this. Long time reader and first time comment here. I recently reread the entire story from start to current FP chapter. I chose the Mafia and sexy time (even if it’s just secret garden ) bc I feel like there are a lot of secrets and hints. ( poppy boss, Quincey’s story, grandma ) that are slowly surfacing without much stability? Like they intrigue the hell out of me and I never hear or see anything of them after that one chapter. I’m sure that’s intentional for built up, but after rereading it all I was really impressed again with how amazing the timeline is and I do love the pacing. I wish they would find the damn notebook though I’ll be honest. 😂 I would like some mafia shit to happen and poppy to decide where she stands

SE

Also more of toras POV those are fun

Alyssa Perrone

Can we get some more of Tora's internal thoughts! I just kill to have more of what he is thinking! I loved having it in this most recent episode ❤❤❤❤

Annika Wolter

I'm here for all of it! Like the comic course it has it all, romance, steamy tension, mysterie and mafia, that all wrapped up with beautiful artwork what more could ya ask for? 🥰

lauren

ALL OF IT!!! Everything about the story I’m invested in

Danielle De luca

I'm down for all of it too! The poll only lets you pick one, LOL

Autumn Tesinsky

I'm here for all of it :) but also....Tora plays the guitar...are we going to get a moment with him showing those skills for Poppy maybe??

Rose Noelia

I did more of all of the above 😊

mostachi

I want all of them lol
