I actually don't hate both of them, helena is not the usual naive and air headed protagonist. Sometimes she too doesn't like the prince's advances but can't refuse because of her status and circumstances. She's okay, don't hate her, don't love her.
I once read a quote I really like
"A villain is just a victim whose story hasn't been told"
Obviously one has to be smart enough to distinguish whetever one is truly evil or not. In general I really try to be open minded and understanding, obviously, this conduct can counterattack sometimes; this goes to show how there's not really a perfect way to understand and relate to others.

is she rly weak tho? i mean iâd consider her as the silent strength type of protagonist (if she was). iâd say staying silent was a smart choice. was it morally right? no, definitely not. but was it smart? most probably, sheâd probably be the one whoâs at a loss if she defied them. her social standing is the one thatâs WEAK and thatâs not something she can control.
as the protagonist, her objective would probably be to get away from her mom, the prince and everyone else whoâs making her life hell, including pre-isekaid eris. but if she tries to actually run away, im pretty sure the mf crown prince would restrict her more and make her life even more miserable. what else could she do?
and regarding eris, what was she supposed to do? defend the person who bullied her? we canât deny that eris was really a bitch pre-isekai (sorry, forgot the verb used when the soul of someone form another world transfers to someone who died in the world where the story takes place). she isnât even aware that eris isnât the original eris anymore.
i donât âjust wantâ to pity helena. im just trying to understand where sheâs coming from. personally, i think both eris and helena are really pitiable. sure, they have their faults but i could see where they were both coming from.

im guessing you donât like seduce the villainâs father then? i mean, yes the story is entirely different. but isnât the king engaged to another woman, whoâs also evil (similar to eris). but it also involves stealing someone engaged to someone else? donât get me wrong tho, i love yerenica and euradian. theyâre fluffballs. but itâs okayy, respect ur opinion regardless. and ya sorry for generalizing.

sorry if any of u were offended!! just wanted to put it out there that itâs messed up if uâre defending pre-isekaid erisâ actions. i understand where she was coming from but itâs fcked up to defend bullying just bc sheâs the protagonist. post-isekaid eris rocks tho. (ŕšâ˘ă

and helena is also at fault but some ppl hate her like she chose to do everything willingly. if she were the protagonist, some ppl would choose to turn a blind eye to this.
the thing is if helena were the protagonist yall wld fucking hate eris
