Kick that kid like a football in front of the emperor pls
This is the author of Kamisama Kiss??!!!!! Their arstyle has improved so much and their story telling is still top notch waowwwww
This is the kind of story that makes me HARD hell yeah!
I saw someone talk about a 2nd ML and I don't even remember there being a 2nd ML???? Who was he lmao
he was a fake fiancee for fl for a while, he genuinely loved her i just cant remember his name now
Anybody thought that dude had even a chance of being a ML????? Whaaaaaat they are delulu, manhwa's never let that type of characters be the ML
well idk if anyone thought he had a chance for sure but he is the only character i can remember that fit that criteria
Thank you for responding and telling me ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
I love this manhwa (?), my only regret is that I didn't let it marinate long enough so now I am going to have to wait years to see the end of this story :'D
Another one of those 'If the main MC is a girl she cannot and will not desire power in any form' stories. Why do nearly all manhwa applaud women for not desiring any kind of recognition or power for all of the things they worked so hard to achieve, why do they sideline everything they have done and don't reward them with anything other than a 'Powerful Husband' I fucking hate it.
The MC single handedly stopped brainwashings, gathered intel, put together people who can help her, stopped multiple assasinations, went and fought the 'Big Baddie Witch' then came out of it unscathed and with another ally, and you are going to tell me she is 'LAZY' so she 'DOESN'T WANT AUTHORITY'. The auhors will cling onto the notion of laziness so hard to not give their fmc power at the end of their story when their fmc never show an ounce of laziness throughout the entire story. I will rip my hair out if I get another one of these bullshit stories.
THE FMC SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE QUEEN JUST LIKE SHE WAS IN HER LAST LIFE, SHE DESERVED IT AND SHE WORKED FOR IT WHILE THE OTHER 2 ROYALS WERE SITTING ON THEIR ASSES AND TWIDDLING THEIR THUMBS
Bro she didn’t WANT it
I feel like that was very, very clear in this story. Being a leader takes a lot of energy and time. Girly wants to be free with no more responsibilities. There is literally nothing wrong with that
Exactly... If it's a girl then house wife it is
Now ask yourself the question why did she not want it? Because she doesn't want responsibilities? She took them on one by one for the entirety of the whole story, saved the entire nation, took on that responsibility blah blah blah... and in the end it's confirmed that she married the blondie boy which means she will still have the responsibility of a household, she will still need to lead when he goes to war and she will still be responsible for making heirs and raising them. SO SHE STILL HAS RESPONSIBILITY AND NONE OF THE POWERS OF A QUEEN WHICH SHE COULD HAVE BEEN!!!!!
I think the main reason she doesn’t want it is tied to the trauma from her past life.
I also have a feeling that if her husband went to battle, she would too, since she’s one of the empire’s best swordswomen. I doubt she’d just stay at home managing household matters. Everything she’s done so far in the story, taking on responsibility, has been about saving the people she loves—then leaving to finally live for herself.
Yeah she has trauma about it from her past life but she has overcome everything else so why does the author not let her get over this too.
Now that I'm calmer I can confidently say that I'm not pissed at her, I am pissed at the author. It feels like these rofan authors are so scared of giving their fmc actual rewards for the journey they underwent. To me this feels like odysseus going through 20 years of gruelling journey only to come back and give up on penelope and his throne to become a peasant. Or Sir Gawain going on the journey and going through the tests of 7 virtues, then just letting himself be killed.
The story arc should have given her space to grow into either a witch or to be a queen wih how everything was set up. But no, a the end of it all she gives everything up and is rewarded with nothing. AND according to history ,according to the last chapter, no one even recognizes all she has done to keep everyone alive. It is just grueling work for a hero and no reward which just sucks.
If it was going to end like this I would have much preferred the Witch winning and getting her revenge. At least that would be satisfying and more justifiable than this lackluster story arc.
Hmm, I see your point. It would have been really cool if instead of just being called a witch, she actually became one and started their revival. I also find it odd how the gods were only active during the early days. They mention the people’s devotion to them, but they didn’t do anything after the first king. There’s no real opposition from a pope or priestess, either that they could have worked through.
Yeah I agree, they set up the god plotline and did nothing with it. Even a bit of interference from the temple would have gone a long way to make it feel better written. I would have loved for her to turn into a witch and start an age of witches or something... Since the witches in this story were truly innocent and were prosecuted for no reason. Also the last witch coming from the bloodline of the one who killed them would have suited the narrative too!
I get what you mean bro, all of this can be solve "easily" if she just took the crown. Why would she even take the harder path LMAO. She knows her brother isn't competent enough, but she doing all of this nonsense just to ugh,
Yes... Cz how can a princess take the throne
She could have made a difference bro, knowing what her shit ancestor did, the least she can do is to overturn the empire and do something for a change lol
Your frustrations about her not sitting in power can be answered if you go back to the first episode. Her main motive of going back was for revenge and take care of her brother, that's all. She did what she wanted. She was regeant in the past life but still wanted the throne for Theo.
Its not because she didnt want any responsibility but its because she wanted her brother to have the spotlight, because she loves and believe in him .
I can't believe it has been 4 years and no one still hasn't uploaded the 6th chapter,,,,, Life is so cruel sometimes （/TДT)/
there is no 6th chapter, only a 5.5 extra. i see a lot of confusion about it in the comments so decided to at least share the info
It was good and all but what happened to the stuff about the top 'consuming the world' or whatever??? There was so much stuff that was set up that did not get resolved it pmo
This manga feels like being a flower thirsty for water and then getting watered so well that you start blossoming. 10/10 Would read it all over again and again.
YES. I WISH I COULD FORGET JUST TO READ THIS AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME.
I can't believe I'm about to say this but the official translation is garbage. They made sentences 'more easily digestable' but it just erases nearly all context that the sentences are trying to convey through speech. I never realized it before but I read the official then the scanlation, let me give you some exapmles;
Scanlation: 'Right. I'm the one who has to make her happy. She cried every day because of those bastards.'
Official: 'Yes, I need to make her happy. She was sad every day because of those guys.'
The officials take away the fact that *HE* needs to make her happy and downplays what Eclis feels about Pen's situation.
Scanlation: 'Ugh, what a bothersome little prey'
Official: 'He's causing trouble for me when he's just prey'
I think they changed it because the OG wasn't 'English sounding' enough but it changes the feel of the whole thing.
Scanlation: 'Last time she never used such powerful ancient magic, and all the prey fell neatly into my webs'
Official: 'Last time I didn't use powerful ancient magic, and the prey crawled into the web I laid out'
I didn't even understand what she was talking about until I read the scanlation??? They literally translated it wrong. It's obvious from the context clues (panels) that she was talking about Pen blowing up the magic island and the officials fucked up. And the I didn't get the prey being the ML's until the scanlation.
There is more like the mirror and Reynard's comeback to being claled a creep being removed etc but it feels like the official is being done by a person who gebuinely wants to drop the readiing level to a 4th graders level. It's fr disappointing
