Agathe's Manga

62 - dumb fun ? Well you need to ignore all enlarged breast and stupid female cakling, but every one is dumb in this story

Interesting MC in a semi original wolrd
Despite his violent function, the MC is a rather virtuous person, not taking life when he can avoid it and helping within his means. His upward morality his always put in perspective, from the mean young sidekick who dislikes him to the mirror corruption of every single group or association they encounter.
There’s a very interesting bunch of characters and a nice background story to slowly unfold
The universe is pretty harsh but despite the cynicism of the system described, the author actually managed to bring out a rather positive narrative both entertaining and challenging quite a few concepts

17 - nice strangely enough, you can start a story with a brokenhearted MC but still show dignity and force of character. The MC is interesting, her interactions with the ML are also very natural and enjoyable. There also seems to be to be room for character development as borth the MC and ML are like dark horse of some sort .
Now some background is sprinkled, it makes it even more intriguing.
I appreciate the fact that neither of those two characters is someone of extreme status too .

Spoilers from NU give a darker vibe than the current thing., and some rather bitter sweet bits.

20 - not for me but it has quality, i might read more later to see if there’s more story time vs squabbles
Very typical of good shounen writing, from the type of characters to the dynamic of it. The newbie meets a mysterious team who happens to be both atypical and carrying a heavy background
Sadly the fight are rather lengthy wich leaves me bored. But if it’s your thing, it’s worth a try
As it’s follos shounen rules, the characters will choose to spare their opponents as often as they can, and when they don’t, ellipses are the way to go . Despite being feisty, it’s action more than trash violence
(Note that this doesn’t apply to intelligent monsters)

70 a god 4+ Fun and cute, no useless misunderstanding
I starter as k read the beginning was good. Ai honestly don’t regret reading it. The ending is certainly a bit rushed ? But i often find the grown up period tiresome, dark lengthy.
Here is quite the opposite, misunderstandings don’t last, people who like each other properly express themselves.
I liked that our MC never becomes a damsel in distress. In fact she always works hard for what is important to her, and never hides behind the ML. I enjoy the type of respectful relationship they grew.
I have a very special liking for an old manga named minto na bokura, because it was my first time reading a story that happens after the characters start dating. They come to a relationship very fast, the story developed with how being a relationship is something you work on. The story doesn’t end when people recognize feelings, it’s just the start ! How obvious ?
In fact, despite being built the other way around, I kind of got the same satisfaction with this story. The characters do build a strong connection, mutual trust and respect.
It doesn’t come in a day it’s long time work with a lot of sincerity.
I also liked that she is not inferior to him, and that his own obsessive tendencies are being curbed for her sake.
In the end, it’s a bit short but it avoids a lot of tiresome tropes, it’s not so bad.

9 give it 5 chapters to get hooked
Honestly i seriously considered dropping for about 4c, i could not get into it, the MC felt unpleasant, the art a bit special (very young kids pictured like middle age miniature adults really were not my thing), i don’t mind the art style though, just the proportions bugs)
But the MC starts growing, the kids get more numerous and slowly become a bit more interesting.
Mostly the confrontation of the adult making the effort to communicate and respect the children is interesting.
I don’t know if it can last, but i hope to enjoy more of it :)

41 - surprisingly good
The MC is straight forward and resourceful, we can already guess she mostly relies on her own abilities to solve the mystery and plots around herself and the emperor
Now i can’t say i enjoyed the first chapter, with another failure at divorcing a guy who’s grown both dependent and obsessed ; but seeing her cracking puzzles and making solutions for current and future issues is fun

26 cute and silly
A bit slow, very light

11 soso so far, very slow too
the game thing just adds a lot of strange items and goals to the co living thing
In the end it still doesn’t feel like a game, and the only « real « character (the MC) also feels like the more shallow of all :/
She supposedly is an accomplished woman, at least, as a professional, but as soon as she’s inside the game, she’s more like a loud and useless clutz with only seducing a man as a goal ? Isn’t it rather disappointing ?
It also doesn’t help that ridiculous items like a handbag or perfume increase her « attraction « ,and, as the target characters are realistic, all the cheat items feels rather like stalker crap 0_o;;;
Again, instead of having a woman shining from her own qualities, her abilities, her values, her strength of character or skills : the focus is on items to purchase ! One use only …
Meh what a poor vision of relationships ?
The only redeeming thing is that so far, the target only like her more when she is genuine and sincere, and not when she’s acting strangely to attract them. Nonetheless, she’s being thrown into a youger and uneducated female character instead of embracing her age and competence
What a mess
I don’t know how it’s supposed to be a good read for women, but it’s rather sad for me so far.
