"He should buy his sister her necklace back, or something even more valuable"... But that's literally what he did ???? He gave her a rare technique that will allow her to make progress in her martial arts, gain knowledge, power within the household and a chance to change her life and have more control over it. What more do you want ?
I love this manga, but the only thing that annoys me, and that can be found in other mangas of the same genre, is this kind of fake "humility".
She has a dimensional storage filled with expensive stuff, she even sold that spear for three whole bags of gold, but she's here worrying about if her paycheck can cover it ?
Also why do characters in isekai only do two things : they want to spend all their time in leisure doing absolutely nothing, or just to live a "simple and normal life" and take a normal boring job ? Ruri could be doing so much more with her powers and wealth. Is that supposed to be relatable ? Because if I had that much power and wealth I would not play at being a waitress (that is a tough and exhausting job btw, and you don't just decide to show up randomly whenever you like :') ) or just sit around doing nothing. ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
So true. If she really feel bad about the poor people and have nothing to do anyway, she could have visited all the affected villages and grew a lot of fruit trees. If she didn’t want attention, then she could do it secretly and along the way sightsee. Also, if she wanted petty revenge to the people who exiled her, she could also ask the fairies to avoid those people and never lend them their power for some time since she didn’t want to destroy the country itself.
i understand ur taste and everything, i personally love these kinds of stories, and though isekai with adventures and more power focused plots are fun to read too, i can understand the want to just settle down and relax. especially if you can become a spoiled housecat living in a luxurious castle, or live out a cute, fantasy cottage life.
no matter the world/dimension, work is work and effort is effort. sure, ruri has a lot of power. but to live with that power is annoying and she was just a normal person before she got isekai’d here. also i just love her kitty form (=・ω・=) she is so cute
The one issue I still have with manwhas is the amount of irrational jalousy from the ML. We have these strong MCs etc but still every male lead is just a pain in the ass because his girl can't say hi to a man, dance with someone else or just have a conversation without the ML flipping his shit. No that's not hot that's being too controlling. Normalize having friends, talks etc with the opposite sex without it being promiscuous. Especially in those manwhas set in a european like setting. Women, even married, danced with different men at balls, they attended or hosted salons, filled with artists and intellectuals of the time, etc... for example I would love to see a girl dancing with several guys at a party, not just one waltz with the ml in the garden, because even though she's a noble she doesn't know how to dance and she'll step on his feet blabla.... I don't get why they take a european setting and do not bother to do any research. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ (I still read every one of those manwhas and enjoy them, no shade here)
Here it comes ! The wretched ! The damned ! SECOND MALE LEAD SYNDROME (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
