THIS!!
Let's be honest, the villainess troupe is just a reversal heroine troupe where the FL is blamed for past villainess's actions and ogFL becomes the villain. There's no change in plot and imo, it's even worse bc I HATE being blamed for things I didn't do. I've only read 2, TWO stories where the FL is actually morally ambiguous and owns it! Unfortunately, one's a one shot and the other is on hiatus bc of horrible mistreatment of the author（/TДT)/
Pls I miss Roxana. Hope things get sorted out and we get more updates
totally agreed with everything you said + I need to know the one shot you're talking about
Same! But I honestly understand if she won't complete it ever. As much as I love Roxie, I also hope the author will heal and live a happy fulfilled life outside her toxic should-be jailed manager and company!
Oh honey, I'll need to searching for it ( ╥﹏╥) it was definitely a Japanese one shot where FL was a villainess who embraced it and instead of healing the ML, she made a healthish(?) yandere x yandere relationship.
But I also just remembered there's the One Within the Villainess and that's just *chef's kiss* beautiful!
oh okiee. and yeah I've read one within the villainess, I can say, it's one of the kind
Meaning that generations really change. In my opinion/in my case. I really like the FL for being strong, independent and capable, so when I see a story about women with guts and humour also (it's a plus!) I strongly love reading it! The old style innocent, crybaby and just beautiful is really outdated to me. So, yeah, it's on the preference of the reader, who's who or what they want to read now a days.
this type of manhuas where the original ml are switching sides after the story makes my trust in men in manhuas worsen. I doubt every character's sincerity. We started with rags to riches, innocent types of fl x royal ml. then it became strong independent fl, then villainess, then the situation turned 360 degrees, now the supposedly bitches from old manhuas namely the original fiancees whom got ditched by ml and are so jealous of 'innocent, unique' fl are now the fl in modern manhuas while the supposedly fl of old manhuas namely the innocent, unfit/not in the same position of the ml eg. maid x royal are now mostly the bitches in most modern manhuas. I'm not mad with the development but might as well say that everyone's a victim, the mc just depends on whose POV the manhua shows.
