Siri play Come back to me by Five Stairsteps and some tissues for my tears
The story was a bit see-through for me, but it was written nicely nonetheless. Depression and the MCs detachment was portrayed perfectly, but most of the side characters did have an unknown ending to their side of the story. (Maids, King, Prince)
I just wish we had more of what their perspective looked like since the story did a good job of showing what others thought and not just what the MC saw.
I think some things were just weird plot points though, like the locket that she ended up always wearing for some reason(?) which ended up helping in the not so climactic battle; unfortunately we didn't get to see what happened in the final battle so that finale was a bit of a let-down for me because it was quite obvious that Mikael was evil and he was cocky so I hoped for a good fight between him and the magician, apparently not though. The prince was the most obvious plot-point though, but we didn't even get to see much of him, and it's a bit sad they didn't get to meet (from what we see).
The pacing is okay, the MC isn't a Mary-Sue, it's a slow burn with most of the MLs only developing/showing their devotion for her 80 chapters in. Artstyle changed, and it doesn't really say who she ended up with.
+ it's kind of a typical isekai manhwa but at the same time not really since it's really focued on actual drama thats entertaining and not the random historical talk you skip on some manhwas
+ it's not everyday you see a gay couple in a rofan isekai manhwa AND they're the antagonists
+ I agree that it's a wee bit similar to KtV, but only in some aspects
+ Unexpected harem(?) debatable
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk as a professional yapper
I think the locket is just to help them explain who Yurigel actually is, but I agree that the ending for him and Evans (former king) were just brushed off like that.
At the end we also never know why Caesar Kazich really wants to get on to the magic circle...? Does he want a kid although he's married to his enemy's sister? Or he just wants to prove Queen's infidelity?
Also a bit sad for the OG Ash's end bcs it seemed like she was also a bit of depressed before her soul vanished
The premise and start was really good and well-written but it kind of got bland at the end, the final fight scene also suckeddd, it was a bit of a let-down
But overall, art is good, story checks out overall, but I feel like there's something missing in the story, is it just me? Like genuinely it feels incomplete...
Pacing was honestly so quick thoughhhgh, I think it's the reason as to why some people are conflicted on whether they should have gotten into a relationship or not. Imo it's okay, they both did each other wrong in a way, but I still also think that the ML truly did go too far at the start, and that the FL was so freaking regretful,, but like for what????
+ ml's actions (killing her) are reasonable; I mean first kill, okay valid, nobody knew anything. The kills after that are debatable,, but the thing is she doesn't remember her deaths all that well, and he was clearly grieving over his family, so imagine his pain when she turns back time, because then he has to die TWICE (arrow, seal) in every life of hers, and he vividly remembers that.
I think I'm mistaking the story of this and "The eminence grise orca baby",, it's so similar
OH WAIT ITS THE SAME LOL
I'm only on chapter 21, and it's so obvious that her mother is DEFINITELY dead. She probably died the second she left the mansion in that carriage,, it's kinda sad because they only now made up
The start was pretty good up until the mid-point of the story, then it just felt kind of rushed at the end? In a way that the ending wasn't satisfying at all. I also don't understand why the founding emperor had him killed, he's a bit shitty for that tbh, not even facing antag himself. Also Acaledia or wtv, so random that she helped him. There's a lot of unexplained things that just happen to happen for the sake of the story. Art is fine, fls eyes creeped me out a lil tho lol
She will most definitely go back to her original world, mostly because Most manhwa mcs talk about going back to their homeworld AT THE START, then they completely just dgaf anymore after a few chapters, we're lucky to even just see their homeworld get mentioned at all, and most of the time it's in a negative light (abused, bad circumstances, etc), but in this manhwa, she's mentioned in like 4 times in the 30 chapters I've read, and thats gen such a crazy thing to happen lol
ok,, chapter fifty and things aren't going well, both for my prediction and heart ,,,,,,,,, i rl wanted her to go home
Same because her adoptive parents are heartbroken too, and i cried so much, she is loved in both worlds I'm happy but that misunderstanding omg it tore me apart..
I think she died in real world..?
dude yes absolutely sobbing oh my god
IM WAITING.
