- An over-the-top take on the reincarnation trope done right
This brings so much nostalgia, and I’m so happy to be able to reread this. I could describe it in many ways, but one word suits it best: it’s enjoyable. I had such a blast reading this that I wanted to pick up the novel it’s based on to see the continuation.
— A fresh take on the reincarnation trope that doesn’t overstay its welcome
Ah, finally getting to the good stuff. We have an interesting concept that isn’t wasted. The characters don’t act too dumb, and the villain isn’t overly stupid or unreasonable either. The only flaw here is that the romance is pretty weak, and adding the second male lead syndrome doesn’t help.
- Yee, no pun on this
Setting aside the fact that the title has more words than chapters, this is a quick, comedy-driven romance. Sometimes it’s stupid, but in the end, it’s an enjoyable character-driven story.
- She is truly a "villainess"
I remember finishing this a long time ago and telling myself it wasn’t so bad. And it wasn’t (truly a revolutionary statement, lol). This is one of the rare stories where they confirm their feelings without taking a billion years, and the chemistry is great. The plot, though, needs some help. We have some twists, but it’s mostly what you’d expect.
- Very fluffy romance story
The main attraction of this story is the romance between the MC and her love interest. If you’re looking for a compelling plot, this isn’t it—villains often act foolishly, and our leads have the perfect plan against it within seconds. Another potential issue is the MC, who is portrayed as very “not like other girls,” which some may find not enjoyable. Additionally, the ML’s trauma felt poorly executed,
- Surviving the fluff
One of the OGs I had already read once, and I still feel the same way. The plot is weak, IMO, as often the characters have perfect plans and our MC has some power to give empowering speeches out of nowhere, but the characters are enjoyable and entertaining. Though, I believe the story could have ended much sooner.
- The final boss is the length of the title
What a classic, I remember loving it when I was a teen, and I love it still. It’s a comedy mixed with an MC who knows how to put up a fight. And nothing overstays its welcome. However, there are some... flaws. The plot is over the top; we are here for the shenanigans rather than the actual plot. Then there is the SA, which is not very... good.
- When romance is the only good part
Not in my entire life would I expect that the romance of this story would be the only good thing about it. The plot was lost on the way and became overly confusing, including some plot holes. Yet somehow, they were able to do what others fail at—a ML who was an asshole but got a satisfying redemption arc and an MC who actually acts h u r t and t r a u m a t i z e d.
- The "Evil" is strong in this one
I will start with the obvious: the art style isn’t the best and changes more often than you would like. However, art style aside, the story isn’t so bad. It’s sometimes too dumb for my liking since no normal person would agree to that contract, but the romance is solid, it’s not too long, and the ML doesn’t make me want to attempt a murder. Though the chemistry could be a bit better.
- The queen of rush
This could be so good and it was, until a half point where it decided to rush everything especially the romance and court intrigue that made it interesting.
