Princess of the Animals
Good story, pretty surprising and refreshing. Short enough so it’s not too much of a bore, but the pace is good in its length. Great drawings, really one of a kind and beautiful.
Living as the Tyrant's Older Sister
Not bad. The plot is really interesting even if it takes a lot of time to settle and to actually reach the tension. Alicia and Ares’ relationship made me roll my eyes a bit cause they put so much time to finally get together! I liked the parts about the double swords and the fact fairies were actually involved in the plot, but I sometimes wished the plot would go a bit faster. There are a lot of characters that aren’t always useful or to serve a purpose and yet that get way too much screen time. Also why must pregnancy happens so fast? Like they’ve known each other for not that much time and they’ve always faced risks and instead of just enjoying each other, right away she’s pregnant because *family and apparently can’t be happy without adding babies* like cmon.
The Duke's 99th Bride
I don’t know why the ending was so rushed but it really was. I wish we had more of Grace’s parents together and how they ended up together cause we’re told about them off screen and we see them briefly but they’re already together, which is a shame. Speaking of that, her father literally appears for two seconds and does not have a big impact. Their meeting isn’t that much of an emotional thing or anything. The prince has his backstory shown and how pitiful he is just to stay an ass in the end, even the story with Penelope leads nowhere. I don’t get what was the point of making them so close and getting the reader’s sympathy all that for nothing. Ignis was KILLED for almost nothing and like, killed killed. What the fuck. The prince also disappeared, I guess he exploded lmao. It’s like this story felt like it had too many characters and had to throw them around. We don’t even see Deckhard and his lover again on screen like whut? We were hinting at some romance for them to finally have NOTHING (rolling eyes). The princess doesn’t appear on screen either and like where is she what’s happening. Why must four years happen for the ML to wake up? Like it’s so wrong and why four years, it looks like the author threw a dice to decide. Also maybe it’s just me but why the f would Grace be more legitimate for the throne when there is an actual princess here? It just feels like any typical reincarnation story where for some reason the FL must end up in the highest position of power.
To summarize it, the ending was so, so lacking, which is a real shame compared to the rest of the story that I really enjoyed. It was a nice read but to be left with this is a bitter taste in my mouth.
The Tyrant's Only Perfumer
I think it’s one of those stories where I have to put five stars because I really was entertained all along. I liked Ariel’s character and I also liked the whole perfume idea, especially the fact we got details about it and so on. The fact she transmigrated here and realized an old dream of hers makes the story quite touching as well. The pace of the story also makes it good, I never really got bored or frustrated with how things were going. I also liked the design of the ML, like the way he’s presented as cold and intimidating at first but how he just ends up being a sucker for Ariel, even if he doesn’t realize it lmao. The second love interest sticks to the story despite being rejected and stays useful with his own story, becoming real friend to Ariel, which I found really appreciable. Maybe the villain plot took some time to happen and was resolved rather quickly, in one stride (the big villain I mean) but I was never disturbed by that fact. Overall the main couple was sweet, definitely a story to read (and to reread, for me)!
I Became the Lousy Side Top
The story was good, even if it honestly didn’t took the road I thought it would! Digging the debt and mafia aspect in contrast to how peaceful their life was when they were together with the kids at home, just cooking and enjoying themselves felt wow. Like sometimes the situation just kept piling up and it felt pretty deep in despair! I often felt like the story was so cute but also I wanted it to continue but didn’t find any solution for it to happen. Whenever there was a solution, you just knew that it was temporary. I’m glad the mess with how did you get in that book was addressed, and that it was a real world after all. Even if I couldn’t help be like fr guy if you’re migrating into a new world, take clothes and money with you! If you move to another country, wouldn’t you do that? Don’t go there almost empty ended what I liked the couple, they were cute together, even if honestly a mess in terms of communication (on both side). Jaewoo’s character sometimes annoyed me a little for the way he was making decisions but I also always felt like they could be excused by the situation unfolding. In general I liked his character that I found funny and relatable, all the good recipes got me damn hungry!
I didn’t like Mujin. Maybe it’s just me, but his character was bad (which is normal given the plot) and even if his tsuntsun attitude was sometimes cute or likable, he was such a hindrance to the main relationship, trying to solve things by violence, to force himself on Jaewoo and to prey on them when they were in a vulnerable situation. It’s hard to like a character like that, at least for me it is. In the end he gets better, with the grief that also made him reflect on himself, but f hell bro, sexual harassment and trying to claim someone yours when they are in love with someone else is definitely NOT the way to make them fall for you lol.
Overall, I was waiting for this story to be complete to read it and although I took a bit of an involuntary break before finishing it, I had no trouble reading through it at all. It was honestly enjoyable, and I was glad to find some isekai ish modern world kind of plot, especially with the BL mark.
