So why isn't anybody mentioning that nahyeon is clearly in some psych manipulation power right now??? You would think that maybe she would realize it, but no? She's not like a normal character, she's a transmigrater, so it's strange. Or maybe she's not, I'm more curious about that.
I missed when BL Used to be like 12-15 chapters. Short and sweet or anything. This is basically all fluff and fuck. I recommend as a palate cleanser if you've been reading some fucked up shit (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
If this was complete, I would read it through, but because it's still updating, it's not worth it.
First off, memory loss X2 ?? But this time he doesn't know who he is period, which makes sense bc of the whole reborn transmigration shit, but this is like.. woah. How many people got transmigrated? How many people actually know the truth at this point, and are the OG MC and ML (not our mc, the like auburn orangey hair guy) even real people? Like.. is that their real personality if they are? I'm curious but not curious enough to stack on updates
1. He is a forest of green, you should definitely be calm
2. It's definitely yaoi, and not shounen ai, however I feel like there's a small difference, and should call this a "BL" instead of yaoi
It is short, but honestly I loved every second of it. I do not care for angst or any unnecessary drama, though I wish we saw more of yeonwoo's mental state and a teensie more angst, but honestly it's so great
(For me: shounen ai = romantic love, no nsfw , BL = soft romantic fluffy love with mild to moderate angst. Nsfw is tasteful and not the whole novel. Sweet reads , Yaoi = basically 30% sex or more, heavier reads, can definitely be sweet but the sex is mainly for getting your rocks off. Great stories are here as well.)
Spoilers ahead

F*CK THIS SH*T!!! DO YOU SEE WHAT MY NAME IS? SHOUJO SLOP. I wasn't always this way, I used to read bl. I actually love when a story is good, and as a depraved low moral pleb, I was willing to accept this. I didn't eat while reading this. I thought it was going to be enjoyable.
It was, at first. For the record, I only read to chap 62 because at that point I was certain it was going to be some bull shit.
I was going to accept that it wasn't going to have a "happy" fluffy ending. I love yandere characters, hell, I PREFER a yandere black flag over a forest green sometimes, but this??? What WAS this. I knew when Howoo had a personality like mine, it went to shit. It wasn't even like both are now depraved in love, YOOL NEVER REALLY LOVED HIM??? I feel like this was just obsessive love sure, but I don't think I can say confidently that this is or was a love story. I honestly was accepting of the whole "yool has water/ice AND psych powers" even though I don't necessarily think they went into it but holy fucking shit. Like holy shit. This.. it's just shit. I had a VERY strong feeling their feelings for each other weren't genuine, and I said I'd like it even if it doesn't end good but it ends like that?????? What the fuck is wrong with this story?? Like it's just a very strong obsessive story that you can't even get your rocks off to. This isn't even juicy, it's dry and weird. It's like you baked a turkey for too long with no seasonings and asked us to eat it because we were starving. Are we just fodder to you? For the clicks!!?!?! This genuinely is trash and I thought it would be good, but this is a very strong reminder that on this app, if tits lover than a 9.0 (9.2 really), ITS A SIHN!!! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME!!! RUN AWAYY!!!
Reed and Tez both being my type AND TECHNICALLY the same person ommmmmm BOTH, SAME TIME
Im so tempted to pick up the novel, but I have a hard time remembering names well, so that's why I prefer manhwa... but it's so good I want to pick it up and read it all ><
The problem is that FL is thinking she isekaied into a story. She hasn't. So with the way she acts, it's uncanny and weird. She thinks she's just a side character, but haven't you guys kinda noticed the way she treats everybody else is off?? I mean, don't get me wrong she is trying to be nice, but she does treat them as lesser than, probably because of all the stories she's read. She thinks she was mistreated, bullied, and she thinks she's in a revenge-regret story almost? But it's not. In fact, her not taking their world as a real world and not novel is why she is uncanny and why people find her weird and monstrous, aside from her aura of being "god-like" and I'd be willing to wager that it's from 1 of 2 things: either that's how all transmigrators are perceived, or that she really was a God.
Another thing, we don't get her age clearly. In the first chapter it says she was healthy, but didn't have a job, and didn't get hit by a truck, so how did she die (her guess is by just falling asleep). Honestly, can we even say her soul is definitely from Korea then? We have no clue who she was, but if she didn't have a job, then she was either on the younger side, or just really well off/ no need to work (and if we assume she's Korean, is kind of weird)
My guess for now is that she was a god who was "dormant" in her original (in this case human-Korean) body, and when charlotte did the ritual (which I don't think we even know WHY she khs or why the blood was in her room and why it was closed off), their souls/body had high synergy and so she awoken, but not with the knowledge of her powers which are still "dormant" in this case. Can we also make the argument on how this was how she was seen in the SK world as well, and just got things she wanted, and so her head was filled with nonsense.
I think in upcoming chapters, we may find out more about her original body, or FL finding out more about charlotte and how she is being perceived.
I'm out for now! BRB when more chapters drop
I need a man like Kardi. I mean even the intimate scenes later on, while at first shocked me, I welcomed warmly. Honestly. I have no real issues with this as a fluffy heart warming read. I can see this being someone's comfort manhwa, and it's worth a re-read if you ever want to do so. Honestly a gem.
This is one of those things where I agree with the comments that it lacked depth. I mean, FL admitted to only reading half of the book, so this whole rebellion thing truly doesn't make any sense. It kind of came out of nowhere, actually. There was no reason for the Duke (pian duke) to even go about the whole rebellion. We honestly get no build up as to WHY this is even happening. Like why would the duke side with the people who actively wanted people like him dead/to suffer???? It makes no sense and honestly I wish we knew more of his character. He wasn't "redeemable" in the sense we use it now, but honestly he could have been a really great character to hate.
I just feel empty. Like even with the FL and ML I just can't find myself really being too happy at their relationship. It just felt so weird. I can't even explain how I feel. I mean it's a good story to pass time, but we really get no other explanation on why she was able to do certain things, or even then, more exhibition of said power. It feels very anticlimactic that it's not even right to give this a rating. It doesn't even feel like a complete story, even if the main story is done and there is still technically more.. PUT IT IN THE MAIN STORY. It was funny but so so very lacking.
When you reach the end, you're like: "wait, but what about..." and then you're just kind of left speechless at such a weird almost half assed ending.
I'm not going to spoil but it genuinely checks all the boxes I want in a manhwa. God if my eyesight wasn't so shit now I would read the novel (if it has one). Genuinely a good read for anybody who likes action rofans where it's gen so balanced. Honestly this is the best thing I've read, and I can't think of a story that genuinely comes close. It's an even better feeling than when I finished "The Villianess Rewinds The Hourglass" or whatever it was called (years ago) I've been fangirling hard. If you've ever read my comments anywhere, you know I'm picky. This is SO FUCKING GOOD.. READ IMMEDIATELY (or wait until it's complete bc I wish it was.. give me another 100chaps to read pls)
Warning, if you have brain cells, do not read!! You cannot turn them off. I don't know when the pacing gets better, but it's like you're reading the story from a fast moving car. I'm on chap 8 and it feels like I should be on chap like ...23 with how this pacing is. I mean even the first few chapters, everything felt rushed. It's wonky to look at. I say save your time
You have been warned.
This was completely mid, through and through. It's sweet, but like.. so confused on this whole world and the story it's in. First off? Why did the story change?? Apparently the whole premise was that the ML was cold to everyone but the OGFL, but suddenly the ML likes the FL? And everybody's personalities are weird? Like it flipped and it's never addressed again?? Also, why was her personality like that? I'd get if like it was even hinted at, but from what the FL and her old friend (pre transmigration) seemed to say, the FL was basically the FL and the OGFL was just a pawn for the story??? I'm not too sure, jf someone can answer that would be nice
Spoilers ahead.
This is bullshit??? Her saying that she had to learn to forgive her father, as if he knew what anything was going on, AND LIKE HE WASNT IN AN UNSTABLE FORM FOR YEARS!!!! He didn't even KNOW you existed, an was fed fake letters. He wasn't able to check up on Leah, let alone leave the duchy. Mind you, she forgave father Patrick after her pleading and begging not to go, since he ultimately lead her to the duchy, but you're not going to forgive your father who was quite LITERALLY UNABLE to go to you? Not only that, the proper burial, the regret, all of that. I feels like FL is stupid asf. She's an actual idiot. If she thinks that empathy is acquiescing her own feelings, and that she's just doing what everybody wants her to do, then she's an idiot. That's like not forgiving your father for being there when your mother died because he was at war. He had no clue until it was too late, and objectively more serious things going on, like, I don't know, NOT GOING RAMPANT AND KILLING WVERYONE???? it's insane that she's this much of a stupid person. I thought I could read this, I cannot. She's too much. And the trial, where the Duke was asked if he neglected them, and showed that he had the dragon powers, THEN WHY IS SHE SAYING THAT? If that was enough evidence to prove he literally COULDNT go to them, why was she still acting like he intentionally forgot her, and didn't look for her. I mean, in the first life, I'm sure Benjamin was sending letters to Duke all this time, so the Duke would have had no idea FL even existed. She's blaming someone who has very little blame. She doesn't have to be "understanding" but in this instance, choosing to not understand the weight is her being ignorant.
She's stupid and is like "well I don't have to consider other people's feelings because my life was the worst!!!" And yeah, but like she's so fucking unbearable and she's not even smart either. Like yeah she died a child, and was heavily sheltered, but it seems like the different side of extreme of just being unbearable. The fact is, she isn't even a pushover, and doesn't say yes to everything. Maybe with the twins a little, but literally almost nothin else. She's acting like oh woe is me, and putting that woe on the poor father who only realized he had a daughter when she came to his doorsteps. And the fact he's been welcoming ever since. That he puts everything down to care for her, and the regret he has. Also boundaries king as well.!!!
All of this to say that I have the FL, this is a waste of art and time. If you want a good read, this isn't it. You will raise your cortisol if you read this
Note, spoilers and angry rants.

WHAT THE ACTUAL GUCK WAS THIS TRASH AS STORY????? Firstly, we get NO explanation or evidence on HOW or WHERE the story changed, just that she got her memories back. However, that isn't NEARLY enough to warrant for Friedrian(??)'s obsession over Luna, and the somewhat trance the characters had from the original story!!! It obviously seemed like magic, so where is that magic??? Also, with the crown prince showing a slight instrest in Luna at the debutant, but then NO OTHER ELABORATION??? This is absolutely trash. We didn't even get to see a lot of important information. And not only that, why were they so obsessed with the novel? The first difference was Friedrian being super obsessed with her, to the point I genuinely thought that he liked her, and wanted to be with her instead, and was just inconsiderate towards Siera (?) but no? It didn't seem like that either? And again, WHAT ANOUT THE NOVEL!!! I wanted to know if there was some other force acting alongside making Luna seem villainous, but it didn't really seem like that? I mean I guess from book standard, it just didn't make sense. We don't really seem any of the book's influence except when it was useful to the story. There's no background, nothing to get you immersed in the story. I would say Friedrian had the most interesting story line in the whole thing, but even then. We don't get explanations on why Anton(?) lost to Friedrian in the first place, or why Friedrian was so wimpy now. It honestly feels like we're missing a ton of the story, so in good conscience I cannot rate this high. It was trash, 2.7/5
I can read a lot of things, but Nina doesn't even look 15. This is a no. I thought this was going to be a cute adopted daughter fic, but no. This is weird asf. I didn't even get halfway before scratching my head
My little grievances
Overall this was a 4.5/5 It was very solid and consistent slop where it mattered.
Now, the whole goblet is something I don't even want to mention because god that's a headache, but why didn't we see the prince until the end?! When I got pretty deep in, I was wondering "huh, there were 3 MLs, right? Where's the crown prince?" And honestly I do believe he deserved so much better. I don't like how it kind of ended for him, especially the way he was manipulated into doing something he really didn't want to do. That being said, he's not exempt from blame and consequences.
Now the whole goddess of darkness doesn't make sense if it was her, and she lived the human life, then BACK into the world, aren't they all the same 1 person? Like the same soul? Since she was technically reincarnated into SK first, and then back into reincarnation in the world. I guess they framed that as "her choice" and deciding to... die with the book instead of burning it?? Though it did close the hole on whether she was transmigrated or reincarnated (which I guess it's a bit of both? She wasn't bell born) I liked it overall. It was a fun read, and I genuinely enjoyed the banter I did with myself. If you're looking for SOLID WORLD BUILDING, that's not this. You're not going to find that here. This is GOOD SLOP. And honestly better than most "slop". It has generally unique concepts and world building, but it just seems lackluster, I'm sure in the side stories we'll get more info, so when those are out, I may revisit.
SHOUJO SLOP GIRL APPROVED!
Major major deep spoilers, But SAVE YOURSELF THE READ!!!
Let me tell you. I have no issues with slop. I love slop. This was BAD. Let's start of with Yanniels(?) We'll just say Miss Yan. WHAT HAPPENED??? Why didn't she fall in love with Philip? Or at the very least have feelings for him? It seemed like from the beginning she had no interest in him at all, and sure after he became weird she probably had 0 interest, but what exactly was the catalyst for that?? We weren't given a reason as to WHY she didn't feel anything towards the crown prince. Secondly, I want to call this found family, but I can't. Not in good faith. We really don't get any more family after a certain point, and she's (Selina???) with Louis like 99% of the time after, we barely get any real Croft family heart to heart. I feel like we were robbed of some really genuine moments. Also, the ending seemed rushed and confusing. Which leads me to our hateful crown prince.
WHAT, WAS. THAT. Even if Philip didn't like the magic tower and therefore Louis because it undermined the imperial family, WHY DIDNT HIS FATHER feel the same way?? The current emperor is not only healthy, but seems to be in decent terms. Did he think his father was a pushover? And where did he even get the idea that, I don't know, signing a peace treaty wasn't the best/ideal move? Also, neither succeeded in summoning a demon. That's to anticlimactic. There was no threat at all except for the mini crown princess test. There was literally no angst at all. So was the mother, empress, corrupt? Also, why did he even have a rotten personality anyway? It doesn't seem like the emperor is like that, so maybe it was his mom. Also after being rejected by Miss Yan, did he really go off into the deep end? This was so stupid. Don't even waste your time reading it.
Honestly, I got bored of reading it, and decided to stick until the end to at least complete it. It's really a 1.8/5. I do NOT recommend, not even as a boredom read. It's just trash
Okay so firsts things firsts this is definitely a fauxest story (faux-incest), so if you're not comfortable with that, or can't really understand the mental gymnastics I'm about to explain to you, I don't blame you. I'm still processing.
Spoilers ahead
So um.. we're not going to get a close on Agatha(? Whatever her name was) just that, oh, she doesn't remember, I guess that's it. But like Ari going back to her original world was so anticlimactic. Like what WAS that? The dimensional Hod could just be summoned?? And just brought her back??? I mean great, but hello??? Anyway. The mental gymnastics is crazy. This is NOT a reverse harem because Lydia does not have any feelings for anyone but the duke. Yes, the duke is her "brother" she's adopted, so I'm not sure if there's a word for that sort of relationship. Sir davery liked Lydia, which I didn't actually expect, though I'm not surprised (?) but I feel like doing that to sir davery is pretty cruel. Actually, really cruel. It's clear this was his found family, and him liking Lydia just seems to be a random "plot twist :P" by author-nim, which is like um.. okay so um.. right anyway. I think we should skip past that. I think Sir Davery deserved so much better. It's weird. Also like.. the story was there and then not really there at the end? Not really any angst prominent enough for me to remember. I'm glad Ari got to go back, and how it was confirmed (even if it didn't really matter bc she was insta returned) that only her soul came, and not her body, so she really didn't die. She was 15/16, right? good for her to live her life again. I wonder what original Lydia was getting up to.
The whole crown prince thing was soooo just like thrown in. Such a sweet potato like??? I couldn't even consider him a second male lead because really there wasn't any real chemistry or connection that didn't feel shallow because of the cloth of bewitchment when they first met. Was any of his feeling truly sincere, or was he just feeling the after effects of the cloth. It's hard to say.
Anyway this gets a 4.2/5 for me. Not A tier, due to the whole fauxcest thing, but still a decent read. I actually dropped this multiple times before finally deciding to read the whole thing, and I'm not really disappointed, but it is definitely slop worth, so SHOUJO SLOP GIRL APPROVED! (With limitations)
Check the spoiler tag!! You've been warned!
Wow. This is what I mean by good soup. Can I even call this slop? It had elements that I don't see often, but the main premise is slop, so I guess it's fine.
At 103 chapters, it was really good and interesting! I liked it a lot! The whole premise of Ripley being swapped, and not necessarily dying is really cool. Especially since OG Ripley went to earth, and is living there. It was super interesting and I wish we saw a little more of that, especially in the side story. The epi was short, but I don't mind, I wasn't necessarily dying to see their kids, but they're cute, as expected.
My only gripe is Rose. OG Ripley and her were friends, so I guess just like MC I feel bad for her, especially since her mental is shattered and she was burned like that. I'm assuming she's being given a second (third or fourth, really) chance to retry. She can't even remember her own name, just that she is the "duchess". I wished rose turned out like Ibella. Speaking of her, was she really in the wrong? Like yes she should give up her love for the sake of the kingdom, but in that same sense, she technically had him first. The queen is.. questionable. I don't really understand that whole part of it (like why being mean and distant to your son was because of Ibella), but I guess it's a happy ending? The king though is scum. How are you going to drag her along when you have a wife and kid?! And then try to make her stay with you. I get he's unhappy, but he should have done more if he really wanted her, but again, couldn't put the kingdom at risk. Overall, I liked the resolution.
This is a 4.7/5, and Shoujo Slop Girl Approved!!!
