(╭` ▽ ' )" Dastardly Villains (jk)

A rather odd duck in our normal line up, our MC isn't by anyone's definition the villain except her own but she doesn't want to be... You'll get it once you read it. The MC is annoyingly obtuse but that's the norm. I'm getting the feeling the duke is a kuudere (they're the best!) and it's incredibly endearing to see how devoted he is to the MC's happiness. 7/10

I'm so looking forward to this manga, I love the author's other works! So far this has a good set up and I'm cautiously optimistic and pleased by the potential that this MC will actually get to keep her fiance. I also like the addition of Norse mythology into the story. 7/10

This makes my heart hurt in the sweetest way. I could see how the self-tormenting and denial of personal happiness displayed by the MC would annoy some people. But for me personally, somehow in this setting I don't mind it. I long for the day of her happiness ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ7/10

So far this story is incredibly frustrating to read as far as the attitudes of supporting characters. Spoiled idealistic views are spouted without decorum or sense while the weight of responsibility and hard decisions are left solely for the MC to bear and take the blame of. If she is to be dubbed a villain, she's a villain I can proudly stand behind and support with all my heart. 7/10

I find the initial plot device to be absolutely hilarious. I thoroughly enjoy the prince and his witches' relationship and that it actually expounded upon the building of that bond. It's a nice build up and foundation for juicier bits that are to come. That being said, I prefer bingeing this series rather than keeping up as each episode premieres. 7/10

While this is a story that I do follow and like, I find myself having a hard time coming back to it sometimes. I feel the MC is a little too dense and self serving. Luckily it looks like in recent updates she holds some new promise, I look forward to what destiny she helps unfold! 7/10 (an extra point for how cute Cesar-sama looks when he's pouting/hurting... I'm not a sadist...)

It's really the ML that makes this story in all his adorable kuudere-ness. It's a easy paced, full of small intrigues and a flustered mean-faced love-struck knight. But, the reconciliation between our villainess and the heroine leaves you feeling dissatisfied, as they blew over it way to easily. But... maybe that's my bloodlust showing... ╮(￣▽￣;)╭ 7/10

Disclaimer: this manga features rape. It has been this manga's biggest hurdle in critiques and I do not in anyway condone rape. However, given the nature of the story I feel that it doesn't detract from it. This story is about the dirty underbelly of society and having the will to rule it. It's love story is not very nice nor gentle but it does have heart. It's a story that I could never bring myself to re-read but nor have I ever forgotten it. 7/10

Seems pretty interesting, I also love romance stories that are told from the guys side. It's very easy to feel sorry for the FL and having the MC feel the same way is thrilling (usually the villainess has to struggle hardship before finding an ally). I greatly anticipate, what I believe will be, a great gentle romance. 6/10

A story where our adorable and sweet MC doesn't realize she's supposed to be a villainess. But if that helps her poor demented classmate she's more than willing to play the part! I'm really curious to see where this plotline goes. 6/10
