The FL is so annoying and dumb as fuck in chapter 43...like b*tch, that ahole was going to gRape and kill you (probably kill the ML if he could), will do it to other women...and you ask the ML not to kill the bastard because "you promised to not be a hitman anymore"?
Well he's not, he isn't getting paid for killing him.
There are people that will hurt and come after you (many who the law cannot touch, plus you are technically in hiding), it will be kill or be killed.
There's a difference between killing in self defense or to guarantee your safety, and killing for money or pleasure. Why do authors make the FLs incapable of getting this? At least give them common sense...
Same thing happened in Doctor Elise or Lady with the lamp.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ML's mother (Empress) and sister where killed by the then Queen (later becomes the new empress). She (villain) and her faction constantly try to kill the ML so her son can become the crown prince. Even the 2nd prince (his brother) feels bad over what his mother did and doesn't really want the crown, but will kill the ML in order to protect his mother.
Come the end of the story and the dumb FL tells the ML "killing them won't bring back the dead back or make things better...forgive them"...
I personally would've killed them and her for saying such dumb sh*t. I suffered my whole life, lost my family and just subdued a rebellion started by them...and you come in with a "holier-than-thou" attitude and tell me to let it go? Risk my new reign, my life, the lives of my future children, and the order of my kingdom? I'll send your iseakai'ed ass back to your world if it bothers you that much. The manhwa had a lot of other issues, but those final chapters really put the final nail in the coffin.
Abandoned Empress is another one...-_-
The story is adorable m, but it honestly looking more and more like the duchess's 50 tea recipes...where tea solved every major issue in the world:
Back pain? Tea
Sinus infection? Tea
Cranky? Tea
Low libido? Tea
Can't have a baby? Tea
Crops died and a severe drought? Tea
War about to break out? Tea
About to die? Tea
Did die? Well do I have something for you!!!
I know Asians are racist, especially against darker skin individuals, but like dang, at least don't make it so obvious
Essentially "feel ugly? Whiten your skin!!!" Reminds me of that laundry commercial where the Asian lady throws in a black man in the washer and he comes out as a light skinned Asian. Gotta respect them honestly, they can be openly racist and just call it a cultural thing
I would agree, i think she’s trying to give herself an unhealthy complexion or a bad skin, without minding any color prejudice
A bit like, if you met someone you know with jaundice, you would not be called racist if you were to comment on their skin color (it’s truly shocking T_T)
In the same manner she attempted to smell bad, she goes for eye bags, she probably made up a next to disgusting bad skin?
What do you mean Asians are racist? You talk as if people who are not asians are non racists The advertisement you're talking about is from China and China is of course in Asia but that doesn't mean that every Asian person belongs to China. Chinese government is racist, homophobic, xenophobic etc. (Sorry to all my Chinese friends) But that doesn't mean all Asian countries are like that. And all Asian countries are like that. And this whole ugliness was never about the skin color. Imagine using a skin foundation of a shade which is 5 times lighter/darker than your skin. You'll definitely look ugly. And that's the case for this manhua protagonist. Imagine using very bright coloured eyeshadows and lipsticks which don't even go together as a colour combination. You'll look ugly in it. Stop thinking about race for a sec and you'll see how much people suffer even if they are of same race. I'm not claming that people don't go through hate crimes because they're of different race. Happened during Covid 19, every person who looked like Mongoloid were viewed as bringers of Covid 19 from China and were humiliated, assaulted in public and private by strangers and also by people they thought as their friends
Ok, and who died and made all black people an authority on all racism? Stick to your lane.
East Asians are notoriously racist. Not in the same way other countries are, but that doesn't take away from it. She had a darker foundation on because the opposite of light pale skin is ugly to them. That's called colorism. But what happens when other Asians, mainly south, usually have darker skin? They get discriminated against and seen as worse. It's so bad that telling. A South asian they look east asian is a compliment to them. Is that normal for you?
No one is denying black people go through racism? But it's a different kind.
Just like I don't go and tell black people how racism towards Africans is in the west, I don't think you have the right to say what is and isn't racism towards Asians(and more) in the east.
I think that was pretty clear in my initial message to you, but instead of providing an actual answer you just deflected
The problem is that people try to find racism in everything.This is no different from a person buying the wrong shade of foundation and wearing decade old clothes. in the story the point of her changing her foundation color was for her safety as u can tell in this story the prince catches on quickly no matter how she looks. i'm just saying u gotta learn what's racist and what's not and in this case it's not.
Ok, I do get what you mean. But for me, racism doesn't automatically mean bane of the earth behavior.
A lot of the things are subconscious and not actually malicious. It doesn't stop making it hurtful, though. It is still the assignment of qualities to a race.
The author here grew up in a society that idolizes fair skin. That in turn means they dislike dark skin. That in itself is not racism, but colorism. And it's a very serious problem when a big percentage of them are naturally darker skinned. I myself and a darker skinned ea. I am tired of having people talk about my skin tone, and I don't even live there anymore. Little girls as young as 7 have confided in me about how ugly they think they are just cause they have a golden complexion instead of paper white. It really breaks my heart.
But you're right, discriminating against someone if the same race isn't racism. That's when other countries come to play. Koreans specifically are notoriously famous for looking down on south asians. Philippinos, Thais and others are seen as dirty and less and skin tone plays a BIG role in that.
Maybe it's not the overt kind of racism you think of when you think of racism but it's still racism none the less imo
You really can't help but compare it to Positively yours, and in that regard, it does fall pretty short, more so when you compare the fl/ml of both to eachother. I think I would've enjoyed it more if I had read this first before positively yours. That aside...
It was an okay read. What I did like about this story was that the bully or trainee teacher actually got to better themselves and the inlaws got more screen time and were more involved (different from positively yours).
I wish we had gotten to see more of the pregnancy, it was essentially "Early chapters: you preggos...final panel of the final chapter: *picture of the baby*". I honestly had forgotten that she was pregnant until the final chapter
Saw a comment that used bitch like 20 times when describing the FL (calm your tits). But yeah, the FL essentially causes every problem with all of her misunderstandings. Doesn't help she's burning her last braincell.
Hard to get into a story where you dislike the FL and she has little to no redeeming qualities.
Another FL that is dead set on allowing the story to progress because for some illogical reason she cannot change it "just because".
Honestly would do the same, I am commoner with nothing, what can I do? And not like she knows how to find the fairy. She is helping the kid, returning him and the living the life she wants ヾ(☆▽☆)
? I understood that she is helpless not that just because... explaining the complicated back story
I think they mean that she can do the most basic thing anyone could: become close to the kid by being nice and taking care of him. She said it herself that she doesn’t wanna get closer because she’s afraid that will change the story. That’s pretty much it, which is a dumb fear.
