I’m a Villainous Daughter, so I’m going to keep the Last Boss
Wish to Say Farewell
Meh. The FL is like a leaf in the wind who keeps telling herself she'll get away from all these men and what not, but she ends up just doing whatever and not really thinking about her goals. It's like the author wanted her to be like other fearful reincarnated normies in the skin of the villainess, but they just disregard it in favor of putting FL in situations where her lap dogs can thirst over her. The love interests are also kinda bland so there's barely any appeal to keep reading.
The Tyrant Husband Has Changed
They Say I Was Born a King's Daughter
The moment MC is out of school, it gets BAD. It's difficult to build a good story where the main character single handedly ends misogyny (you can't just be like: mc exists, does things and bam everyone thinks sexism is bad), but the author didn't even try. The answer to that complicated problem is magic here. Ngl, the whole sexism thing is very extreme to begin, but explainable since there was such a drastic power difference between genders compared to our own history. Instead of trying to send a message similar to "hey, no matter what they tell you about how a woman is worth less than a man, women can very well see eye to eye with them or outdo them" it's sending more of vibes like "you know men and magic? well, no. Misogyny bad. Bad man stole magic from women. Magic will solve our problems and bring equality." Uuuugh, the whole saint plot just yeeted away so much potential imo. I guess making everyone equal when it comes to magic is somewhat of a step in the right direction, but it's so obviously an easy cop-out for the author to not have to think too much. What finally sent me over the edge was this whole lore bs about the saintess and a salty sexist dude who stole women's magic as a lifelong hobby. What the fuck?
I Raised an Obsessive Servant
Yurina is the villainess of a novel who our FL possesses during Yurina's childhood. The og villainess died because the heroine's 2nd fish (which is said obsessive servant and ML here) killed her. It's kinda cliche but it works.
There are some nice details, like how FL renames him, and how she can reveal herself to him because he only knows the her now, and not the pre-posession Yurina. But for me it got boring after chapter 25-something-ish. The plot felt like it was stuck, showing off how Ray and FL bond over and over again.
May just be my impatience here, anyway-
