Don't get me wrong, their love story is cute and all of that, but you know, in the beginning it was all about "Why did I go back in time? Why does Edwin keep regressing?" and typically in this genre of manhwas, regression happens to the MC so she could prevent some sort of big tragedy, you know? I expected a oittle bit of mystery, plot twists, THINGS HAPPENING. Their regression was never explained, and the worldbuilding lacks A BUNCH. I thought that I was in for an interesing story, but no. Over the time the entire manhwa just revolved around their cliché relationship, that everything else was overlooked and left in the dark.
Overall, I cannot say "Oh it's a bad story.", but I can say that it didn't move me, not even once. Everything that happened was very bland and predictable. Compared to some other manhwas of this genre, this one is just boring.
ALSO, what I forgot to add: HOW in the hell can Kit say that he was her first LOVE when she previously had not talked to him EVEN ONCE. At this point every pretty man that I've encountered in my life could be my first love. Kit, that's called a crush.
So like... that's just it? Just like that? After everything?
I expected the ex-emperor to go down in a more... yk, tragic way? The sudden appereance of spirit kings and so many other things left unexplained.
Marquess Vlemir is also such a random love interest. IMO, she didn't even need one if it were going to be this random.
Didn't understand half of the things regarding big Leon. I was also hoping to see kiddos grow up. Like how in "Who made me a Princess" we can see Athanasia grow up as the time passes.
Last chapter was so random and rushed.
Honestly disappointed in the ending, as this has been one of my favorites for a while.
Honestly I don’t think the king guy was that bad? He did what a king should do and raised an heir while maintaining the nobles on both sides. Yeah he’s an ass but you know a decent king. The love interest thing was always kinda hinted at, when the building was crumbling a couple chapters back we could tell that they were both interested in the second empress. To the point even the king guy was like “hey bro that’s my second wife.” As for the ending I don’t have much to say but I see that others are saying it’s the same as the novel, so ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I actually liked his character, but not HIM. If that makes sense.
I'm just saying how I expected him to go down more tragically. Like he just died like that.
And I get that the love interest was building up. But he became the ML SO RANDOMLY.
It really does make sense because he did so little to be a good villain while all the other antagonists like blew up building and killed people
so like who's son is dead??? and what happened to the kid FL saved??? is the "dead son" that child FL saved or what? and WHOSE SON IS HE? Elise and emperor's or Elise and that other magician's?? ALSO WHY WON'T VALETTA AND REINHART JUST KISSSSSS LORDDDD
My guess is the son is either the prince somehow or the sword kid, but I'm here for the mystery lol so I'll accept the wait for now
Currently on chapter 23 (will continue) and... I just... Don't know how to feel about FL and her thought process so far.
I am not a mother, I am only 19, so I can't really speak from her perspective, but I do understand her.
For example: my cat recently went missing, and she was literally my soul mate, no joke. That was my child, my baby, and I loved that cat more than I've ever loved anyone, even myself. And if I got a chance to go back in time before I got her, and somebody asked me "Would you still make the same choices that ruined your life just to meet your baby again?" I'd also ponder. But honestly speaking... If her daughter TOLD HER that she wishes for her to marry her first love and live happier, what's stopping her? I think every daughter wishes that for her mother, even myself. I often wonder if my mom would be happier if she had never married my passed father and had me. Because even if she did marry the husband (Harold(?)) again, she would not give birth to the daughter that she knew in the other timeline if we're being honest, and she would stay unhappy with a daughter that's upset with her mother's unhappiness.
Plus her parents literally gave her a GREEN LIGHT with the ML. Girl that's your FIRST LOVE!!!
I honestly understand her indecisiveness about re-marrying the husband, because I was also met with a relationship where I grew to like him, and he was kind to me, and he did love me, but I couldn't LOVE him. After breaking it off with him, my head was full of "what if we stayed together, maybe it would've worked out, maybe if I changed something..." but honestly, what is the use of living in the future and the past? If you were already gifted a second chance, MAKE IT COUNT. YOU were given the second chance so that YOU could be happier.
So having that said: if I had gone back in time, I would do everything to try again with the guy who I desperately wanted to be with, but it never happened. Because deep down I know that that's something that I truly wanted.
