weeb's manga / #villainess(37)

MC with a brain! And not just any brain, she's actually somewhat of a genius at scheming. The guy isn't some cold jerk (not that I don't like them but it's nice to have someone kind sometimes). Idk wtf is going to happen to the updates though. Trying to read the updates from the previous scanlators is basically impossible and the person who uploaded the last chapter said they're not doing it again. EDIT: So apparently I loved this? Lmfao can't remember a thing I'd have to reread it all to see. I thought this was borderline garbage and that's why I haven't touched it in so long.

This one doesn't take itself too seriously. I love seeing just how far they're willing to go for the villain act. The silver haired girl annoys me so I hope they kill her off.

Everything is great except for one thing, why doesn't Hamel destroy the book and remove Kiki and Larajey's memories of it? I like that the FL is already in love though, I don't like it when the girl keeps refusing the guy for no reason. Also her undying thirst combined with mind reading abilities is pure gold. EDIT: I had to take away a star for Ginger's stupidity. I was being patient about it before but it's just too much now, makes me not want to read when every problem in the series is caused by her not using a single braincell. EDIT 2: LOL this finished half a year ago and I didn't notice. I think I couldn't be bothered to read for so long because the romance was slow and Ginger is dumb? The longer I don't read something the less I feel the desire to as well.

Man, this is the one series where I'd be ok with a harem ending. It's clear Assad is the ML but Jay is so my type... I wish the FLs in these stories would start to just treat people well so that there's no reason to kill them instead of going for the burn everything strategy. EDIT: Lmao I was wrong Jay wins and I'm happy bout that. Some kind strangers in the topics spoiled it. It still sucks that she's emotionally constipated but once she gets over that we're upping to 5 stars. EDIT 2: Why didn't I do as I said, you may ask? Well, it just never hit the heights that I was hoping it would. Not a bad read though, at least she's doing something instead of starting a slush fund like ever other FL out there. The ending is a bit rushed but I really like the plot twist(?) in regards to how they handled the final conflict. The solution is dropped on us very early on in the series, and inconspicuously at that, to the point that I forgot that was an option.

Riven is cute but nothing interesting otherwise so far. I get the feeling the original ML is an ass so I don't think FL should get with him. Also don't like original FL even though I think we're supposed to. I don't care how innocent you are taking somebody's man is a bitch move.

A lot of people have a problem with the romance here. I was one of those people. At least until that one chapter where Nocton goes from an evil creep to a misunderstood loner. Don't get me wrong, he should have gone around killing everyone he sees, but somehow Duroa changed that. It just doesn't look like it for a good 15 chapters. I have no clue how any of this could reasonably get resolved though so I'm mostly staying to see the mental gymnastics required to fix their relationship. Knowing these shoujo manhwa it'll probably make sense too. EDIT: Dropped. This shit is still going? Ffs Duroa is a total bitch. Get over yourself and hear the poor guy out already! At this point Nocton would be better off forgetting her.

We've finally got some progress in the romance department, but a good chunk of this is Aria being cunning so she can get her revenge. It's not very often that she gets to 1up mielle though because she's saving her aces for the final showdown.

In one word: weird. Might be the translation. At times it feels all over the place. Characters are pretty good, but I really don't need your feminist agenda shoved down my throat every 5 seconds, move on with the plot.

Cliche central and the plot is moving at a breakneck pace, but ML is to die for.

Not much action in the romance department, but I wouldn't feel right calling it an op mc story either. She doesn't even have a goal, she's just stumbling her way through life while the morons around her assume the worst case scenario for everything she does.
