we can't let this ship sink before it even started! I believe that they will get together in the end! Manifest this friends (❀TㅂT)و✧ They will end up as an elegant elderly couple! Manifesttttttt ヾ(๑T◡T)ﾉ~
That cute fluffy cat reminds me of a cat from another manga! I don't remember which one but there was a scene of a cat about to pounce on the mc who turned into a small animal and this cat looks really similar to that one! If anyone knows the manga please share the name!
Also that little sister and the damned fiancé ..... (￣ε(#￣)Σ
I think i know! Ore Wa Busamen - Neko Tsudzuri. The mangaka tht draws yaoi.i totally agree this cat reminds me of busamen (￣∇￣")
So glad I found this manga! Macaron is such a cool cat and this story is just amazing! More updates please ヾ(☆▽☆)
Forget the story and the copy and paste trope. Let's talk about Croa the crow! Friends I love Croa so much! She's so cute lol. And she calls Lester her dad (≧∀≦) Her in ch 35-37 was so cute!!!
I read some spoilers and my goodness. If you are here for a strong female lead who will change and grow to be a strong, invincible lady then this manga is not for you. However, if you are here for the emotional roller coaster, spiked blood pressure, angst and inner turmoil then you have found the right manga my friend.
if you have ever read "To help you understand/What It Means to be You" and loved it....then this is for you. the emotional roller coaster, anger, angst, pity and tears I invested in that manga.... ヽ(TДT)ﾉ I got a good cry out of it honestly
as feared, our ml is the beautiful trash of a man we have seen exhibited before us. he's beautiful and he sucks. he's got a couple loose screws, aint in touch with his emotions, and likes to push the fl and goad her for a reaction. all in all, he's as much of a douche bag as the guy from the novel mentioned above. but they end up together so we're in for the ride ┑(￣Д ￣")┍
as for our fl....if I can fundraise a backbone for her I would! I desperately want to! now, her experiences has shaped her so she's definitely on the demure side, however, she does not change much even as we progress. SO, don't expect her to go all badass. if you are here for some tears and angst, then you're at the right place. Just grab a tissue and strap in for the emotions. this girl will make you sypathize, pity and want to scream for and at her.
so if you are ready for all of the above then strap in tight cause there's a lot coming!
Saw some spoilers and I felt my blood pressure spike. There will be no cathartic retaliation or revenge. Our mc will be a good natured doormat that forgives everyone. Spoilers below copied and pasted from a novel update user. Once you read it you greatly dislike every character a bit. And the fact that everyone gets off scot free after how they made her life to be...especially the dad, fuki and her grandson (╬￣皿￣)凸 My blood pressure can't deal

Reiko fake forgives him on account of landlord's feelings and that he was going to die soon.
Reiko convinced the two to get married by telling them they have waited long enough and that they should seize the chance. However, in reality Reiko just wanted to remain connected to landlord after his death.
Thought to have cancer but did not go to the hospital because of trauma (His father was a great man who invested a lot into hospitals and healthcare. He didn't want to go hospital and be reminded he wasn't as great?). Eventually he went after landlord convinced him to go.

Relationship w/ MC: Antagonistic → Parent-Child (though they're constantly fighting and bickering for landlord's attention)
Wow, Japanese mangas really want to physically punch you in the stomach when you start to get any level of hope for the MC’s change of luck… like, SIKE! YOU thought these UNNECESSARY levels/layers of trauma AND misfortune was all!!! Think AGAIN! To also give us a DOORMAT of a Main Character too… I did hear that kids that were neglected(from especially stimuli, touch, love/affection) tend to space/black out for long periods of time out of habit. The MC was really giving that to me, that I started to question that caregiver for a while.
every new character the pops up is so annoying. first Rosalind who is headstrong and ignreos the wishes of those around her but turns out she's doing it for her own safety. Then there's the countess who uses her age to lecture and trying to push her views on the mc. educating her as an "elder" with a biased view. I hate it. makes my blood boil. Not worth the read. not interesting. don't recommend. there's better mangas out there that won't make you frown at each chapter. there's not enjoyment reading this...only annoyance
