Honestly the thing the FL's parents have with the clothes they wear is so overtop I can't take them seriously it feels like the author didn't know how to properly render them as bad people outside of the gag... but oh well, everything else is so nice!! I love how the FL and ML are both so cute with each other...
By the looks of the cover art, Raven isn't going to be the ML... but I wasn't feeling much of a protagonist vibe from him so, not that mad. They can work as friends and confidantes. I'm just scared of whether the actual ML is going to be her enemy (as in, he was somehow involved in her father's death, as a soldier or not) or whether he'll help her in her plans. This FL is def not the best case of "not like other girls", but oh well, I like how she has a oenchant for fighting and whatnot. If the author can build her up properly she could be a very fine character. Fingers crossed!
