So I went to read the novel because I was enthusiastic about what the manga has shown, but I'm about to drop this too just so I won't have to physically see the bs that the novel gives. I'm not raising my blood pressure with this shit more than I already have.

So she's going to basically be asked by the king and his council of idiots to "guide" the heroine who is the fated "Saintess" who is supposed to guide the country, which ends up causing her to be the villainess she wants to be. Not that she really seems like one, since she's only telling the truth and the naive ass heroine and her brainwashed followers (a majority of which Alicia knew from childhood including two of her brothers) are all acting like things are sunshine and rainbows. The school they are at also basically is almost filled with cult-like people who even when called out on their stupidity, get quickly pulled back under the "heroine's" sway so that's a lost cause.
The Prince Duke or whatever still likes her and is nice and all, but the story just ends up getting really dumb. I just literally don't have the patience to sit through any more stupid shit. The heroine almost gets Alicia killed by some people who were trying to kidnap her by immobilizing her and when called out on this, she spouts off about "not killing people because it's wrong" and HER BROTHER and the heroine's followers amongst his friends agree.
Alicia loses her magic at some point and at this point my blood pressure was through the roof this point that I'm surprised I managed to tolerate it enough to get to the last chapter uploaded.
So -100/10 is my score. Fuck this story. The premise was great, but as soon as the heroine showed up, it went downhill from there. If you don't like being frustrated, this ain't for you. If you like having anger headaches then it is.
lmao just from reading your comment i got MADヽ(`ﮧ´)ノ
especially at the part when she loses her powers.. like wtf, i hate it when this shit happens in stories..
anyways thanks for your warning, i don't have a lot of time to spend reading wbtoons or manga, so it's very precious. so yeah you just saved my life from weeks of agony and dispair.. (am i exaggerating? i don't think so...)
Well, I'm not sure why'd you want to read it but here is the link: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/ill-become-a-villainess-that-will-go-down-in-history/?pg=9
I read your spoiler and it's basically a plot of japanese shoujo.. Yeap, its frustrating and all, but I'm not surprised a bit.
And I saw some people got confused by your comment. I'm not saying it's your fault, it's not.
It's just that they kinda didn't read and interpreted it wrongly. They thought you posted the end of the novel when you clearly said the last updated chapter lolololol
I want to read this because I like the art but thanks to your spoiler I'll can prepare my heart for the shitty parts ( ̄∇ ̄")
Whoever put "Strong Female Lead" in the tags needs to be punched in the throat. There is only so much "abuse the woobie" crap I can take, and this has long since passed my bottom line. This is not worth reading. The female lead has no agency or plans to actually do anything to save herself, and I don't care about "She's sheltered" or any other similar excuses someone comes up with. Everyone has a breaking point where they either fight or run and with everything this girl has been through, she should've long since been decided on either of those and implemented it. This just isn't worth having an aneurism due to pure frustration. (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸
I second the motion. Gave it a 3 star rating, there's no character development and no resolve from the child.
As an interesting point they are finding through research that there is fight, flight, and freeze responses to dangerous/traumatic situations. They freeze mode is where you aren't able to escape certain stimuli to the point your brain releases chemicals to subdue a response to basically lay low. This can also lead to severe depression and anxiety over time. This kind of story just reminds me of that kind of response.
THANK YOU!!
Exactly!! I like knowing about how different personalities of different people can have, and maybe we all should be open-minded and accept every personality type coz each type has its own flaws.
umm... Maybe wait for her to grow up a little before passing judgement?
even in her previous life, she was literally only 18 years old who had lived her entire life in captivity... like, what do you expect her to do with her tiny and weak body?
( ̄∇ ̄")
Your right passing judgment fast isn’t good but it’s over 30 chapters and I don’t see any character Development maybe I’ll visit once a while but I’m not really good at waiting so this manga isn’t for me but I’m sure other people will find it fun to read it’s just not for me..
Even she have ptsd??
Naaaah, this is too much slow development. Take a look at Leslie Shuya Salvatore from The Monster Duchess and Contract Princess. Even though she had PTSD, she had a great character development. She used every means in order for her to get some protection unlike in this story. She came back willingly because she doesn't want others to get hurt, it's okay to be selfish once in a while knowing that you've experienced death once. She doesn't act like an 18 year old.
Leslie literally has supernatural powers to assist her. Not to mention why are you even comparing two completely different characters from two different manhwa? Leslie knew what to do to get out of her situation because she was aware of the Salvatore family from her previous life and their reputation.... Like everyone keeps mentioning, Our female lead literally lived her ENTIRE 18 years of her previous life locked up in a room. She doesn't have any supernatural powers to rely on nor does she have any awareness about life outside... Leslie CANNOT be compared to her at all!
Also, I don't know much about PTSD so I will not comment on that but I don't think it's fair to say that 18 year old's should all act a certain way. I mean, in her era, an 18 year old would be married with at least a kid or possibly engaged. So, saying she doesn't act like an 18 is a pretty broad statement.
Character development takes time... just because 30+ chapters are over so far means nothing when you compare it to the pacing of the story. In fact because it is taking so long for her to come out of her shell, I am looking forward to the future chapters.
I mean, at the end of the day, we are all entitled to our perspectives so if this manhwa is not to your liking, then that okay too..

I said what I said. I'm dropping it. Your opinion on whether I should judge a character or not based on what you think has nothing to do with me. In MY OPINION, I can't stand the inactive MC and so I'm dropping the story. That's it. No matter how many people downvote it because they "think I'm being too harsh" or "Well she's BLAH BLAH". doesn't matter to me. It's dropped. Will I come back once this "Abuse the Woobie" phase is done? Maybe, but that's up to me. Until then, my opinion won't change.
