Something about this entire manga has been bothering me and Ive been trying to put my finger on it. It's like all these blatantly 'bad' made to be hated characters just exist to make Lippe look good? And each of these three instances (the tutor, the salon lady, and now this lady) they never really did anything that bad? They were just made to be an asshole and talk shit lol. Like they could all be the same character for all I know and it wouldn't make a difference. And then, for the nothing they did the retaliation or justice thats delivered just seems sorta petty? Like the way Lippe sometimes reacts is just downright mean....like for example with the tutor, she really personally attacked him and to me that just lowers her down to his level. Like the "Do you believe that hanging out with upper class nobles, that somehow, you too will become an upper class noble?" Seems pretty haughty to me. Doesnt really scream maturity.
The entire setup of hateable character appearing getting some (sorta cruel) "justice" delivered to them is getting a bit repetitive.

    i feel exactly the same way. this is getting very repetitive and I know they want to make it seem like the fact that she went back in time changed her and that now she's doing everything to save her family but she's basically a mean version of god rn

    That's another thing that I found sorta weird. Because there's not a hint of her past self (well, not that they show us much, but based off what we saw of her past). Her current character feels like...fabricated? sorta lacking in personality? and then theres also the thing with the change in relationship with her family and to me that delivers a weird message that her family loved her so much only when she acted in this way.
