Ahiru no Ouji-sama review

LET ME TELL YOU, about this manga.
It all started when my roomate who loves ducks got the first volume in english as a birthday gift. It was alright, but forgotten. Now skip to 2016 in college.
It was a night when she decided to read manga on the television in the front room that was right next to my desk. I tried to do my homework but the call of manga was too strong.
It started off alright enough, but at some point I knew, I just knew that absolutely no one in his manga deserves happiness.
I'd suggest things that could have improved the story while we were reading since I'm good at guessing tropes as they're set up. And every single time, I was wrong and it was literally the worst possible outcome.
Reading this story I was just wondering if they'd pull a neat little tale about how you're ok the way you are and judging by the ending that's what it'd be going for...but that ending.
OH BOY THAT ENDING.
I don't think I've ever felt more cheated by a story. Maybe I've just avoided bad stories(and technically this one found me) but I understand the rage of seeing potential in a story squandered at every turn.
The humiliation of the main character just seemed so mean-spirited it hurt. It made me want to protect this poor child from his own terrible story. Did he deserve this? I don't recall him doing anything worse then rejecting his original look the first time.
I remember yelling at the screen with my roomates for him to go for "bestgirl" that seemed to change often and ended with all possible girls being so terrible I'm sure they are examples of the worst of humanity in general.
I remember that one time with the sister that almost caused me to pick a fight with the tv just because of double standards, can't remember the chapter and don't want to scrub through it to find it.
But damn, all these characters are just horrible. The ending would have been at least 100 times better if it ended with everyone dying, but hey, that's just my opinion writing a review that I'd written a year after reading the story and am only now bothering to put on MAL.
Art wise- it's nothing special and it's not too special, it's got that shoujo feel that sort of makes one want to wash their hands if they stare at it too long but it's defiantly not the worst manga art has ever offered.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

TL;DR? - It sucks!™
