art carried it tbh. the potholes were so annoying… the fast paced ending seemed rushed and boring. the plot is definitely there but just needed a slower and more though out ending. this could’ve been so much better if it was changed.
Such a lukewarm ending. The build up was like 80 chapters and the ending is like 3 chapters. It happened so fast and so boring and so disappointedly. The romance between the sister and the count was cuter and more interesting
The S1 was so good but S2 was so chaotic until the end. The plot for S2 was so rushed, Penelope being the Emperor therapist was so stupid, ig halfway they want to salvage the Emeperor's character but it did not work out. This could have a potential but it was left out as is.
The Duke who is more powerful than the Emperor has been looking for a bride, so far he has gone through 98 fiancés. Grace is the maid for a noble family, instead of sending their daughter to marry the Duke sends Grace, masquerading her as their second daughter. Her un-noble upbringing might be just what the duke is looking for.
DROPPED Ch1: We can’t reject the duke’s marriage proposal! It would destroy our family! Ch23: Those unvalued daughters could’ve said no to the marriage proposa from a literal duke. It’s their own fault that they were greedy for money and power and didn’t genuinely fall in love despite the fact that he was lying the whole time and also wants to commit treason (even if that treason is deserved) Huh?? Absolutely wild justification for that. ML is still a green flag but jfc he and his staff are either oblivious or acting it of the power his title has, especially in the face of women who seem to be unable to be the head of house or manage their finances without a husband. Overall enjoyable but don’t think too much bc the rushed pace led to a lot of plotholes
Nothing special about the plot- it’s exactly what you’d expect, plot armor and all. Romance was meh, I didn’t really feel the chemistry. Strong FL, but it’s the generic strong FL trope, not groundbreaking or anything. Dude’s pretty hot tho, and art is good. I found Penelope and her quasi-romance stuff annoying as hell. Love the aunty, honorary milf.
Finale spoilers: Ending was super rushed. I started wondering how the hell they were gonna wrap it up when the supposed climax started with only 4 chapters left. The coma excuse contributed nothing to the plot lmao. Also I know fiction and stuff, but I just know that that first kiss fresh after waking up from the coma must’ve been sTINKY af lmao FL’s wet rag ain’t doing shit against those 4 years!
