I think her uniqueness is in how the author writes her. Unlike many other MCs of isekai stories she’s not just a self insert Mary Sue type of character that the author/readers can project onto or to just be a random slate to dish out the same type of romance story. She is her own individual and written as such. Ashe is written like a real person, not just a character in a story. Honestly I had a similar thought when reading the latest chapter where they disagreed w each other which showed different pov and forced Ash to reflect on her pov. Also probably because it’s not really a romance manhwa. Like it is but romance isn’t the main focus of the story and it is not even the solution to Ash’s problems (I like how the author addressed this too). In a lot of the other isekai stories the only way the MC gets a happy ending is through a relationship w a male character and her worth is always validated by how those said characters perceive her. And if someone was to ask me the genre I’d say it’s a drama/fantasy/mystery novel before I’d say it’s a romance. Moreover, unlike in other isekais, the side women characters, are not flattened into one dimensional characters made to be constantly compared to the MC. Therefore they feel more authentic, Ash’s interactions w them are more authentic, and this Ash feels more authentic/different because you have a fleshed out realistic character interacting w other fleshed out realistic characters that are not there to be stepping stones to said character or her image. I have more to say on this but I think I’ve gone overboard but it’s something I’ve also thought about a lot.
You literally wrote down everything I was thinking abt this manhwa
Perfect! I couldn't have explained it better even if I wanted to!
It's exactly the feeling I have when I read about Ash!
I am desperately trying to figure out why Ash is so different from any other MC in isekai mangas.
She fears to die (and I already saw it in thousands of stories), she is not weak (and there are other Mcs like this too) but the times she is weak don't annoy me.
She looks like the type she doesn't care, but then she acts as if she cares a lot.
I don't know how to describe her and this drives me crazy.
She's simply unique. I read something like 50 isekai stories but I can't compare her to any other MC.
What is that makes her so unique?
