I'm staying to see how the FL ends up changing.

I don't really hate her, I might be the only one but I think the way she thinks and perceives things aren't hateful to me, they were all born from her low self-esteem and I can relate to her constantly comparing herself to others and putting herself down.

Being that way really breaks one down at some point and I think it's pretty well shown, it's realistic because I'm the living example, I often think the same way like her but I came to accept that I wasn't blessed with the right genes and turned out ugly lmao.

I'm sure she will realize that the things she has are things others want, her more mature-looking facial features, height and also the more serious atmosphere around her are things I'd personally want.
You always want what you don't have.

If she comes to accept and love herself, she will be a complete different person than what we see now after all.
The words she said now are a temporary phase she is going through with her current mindset.

    IKR.. She's really have LOW self esteem:( and being compared a lot to her friend, Kumi since high school too ? Oh my poor girl. But she really needs to realize that she was beautifull to:) not cutie type but definetly a cool-beauty type and it's okay :)

That kind of personality is something most of the people in my school had and the same also applied to become a teacher and I'm already sorry for their colleagues that are possibly a few who are actually nice and good teachers.
If she talks and judges the other teachers, I don't even want to know what she has to say about her pupils. If she has no compassion and understanding, why is she even at a school teaching ethics of all subjects.

The way I know that the people I went to school with are actually going to end up becoming teachers just makes me lose hope in school and the futute generations more than I already had when I went to school where it was full of young teachers that didn't know anything about their subjects and practically talked trash throughout their lessons.

Well, about ethics, I always end up thinking of the ethics teacher manga and I'm always curious whether they really teach ethics with these topics in Asia. I did hear that they really do talk about so many interesting topics there.
Ethics class in my school was just painful to listen to and the topics and discussions were all nonsense.

To be honest, I'm really surprised this still gets translated and the translations are really good, too.

I'm still into this, not as much as I was at the start but I'm still watching over this because of the art and because I'm interested with how this story ends and when the romance part is going to be shown, I mean none of them really have shown any expressions. I can't imagine anyone get flustered with a blushing face.

All I hope is that the Duke catches feelings first and not Viola.
But I get the feeling that she winds up being the first to grow to like him.

I'm willing to wait for any outcome to happen, I'm not expecting much from this anyway but I have the patience to wait it out or until it won't get translated anymore.

    You’ve exactly summed up how I feel! The last few chapters have made me feel hopeful that the action is starting to pick up though, so maybe we’ll be rewarded for sticking up with it aha

The moment I knew something would be with them when Daesik got invited over even though Josef was home.

Daesik's reactions are priceless with how he is fine how the others are just noticing that he is there, too. The way he teared up when he was researching stuff, too
He is fully prepared to face Josef and I'm waiting for it to happen.

    Daeshik and older brother, I'm excited!

I really hope the father can somehow manage to communicate with him, maybe in a way like in Your Name where he could write something somewhere while he is in possession of the body.

It just really sucks to use him like that just for his own selfishness, he influences the actual person's life and mentality. It's nice to protect his daughter, her present and her future but if that's the only way, then that's plain wrong.

He is already creating misunderstandings and causing situations where if he isn't in control of the body, the body owner is screwed. Guess he'll be the one that will end up transferring. It's a mystery itself how and who is able to see the father, too... Maybe someone will be able to tell that that spirit isn't the right one. Also happens with the boy's spirit when the father is in his body?

Seeing how he beats up everyone effortlessly, doesn't that mean that the actual character is pretty much on the stronger side? I doubt it's only all about the father's spirit that makes it possible for him to beat someone, well he did get beaten up himself, too though...

In general, I just can't seem to support the father. I just hope he can pass on soon because there's a limit to how much he can do by choosing this way to fight for her. I'm guessing he will realize that there will be things he won't be able to help with, even if he had been alive or even if he keeps on using that body.

I mean, if he wasn't there, spiritually, she would have to deal with this all on her own, too.

I feel sorry to the true body owner the most.

I can guess that we will eventually see the life of her husband and will learn to accept and understand his behavior towards her but I don't think I'll ever be able to take his side or will be able to turn my opinion in his favor.

It's really frustrating to see how he talks all over her and interprets everything she says in a way for him to be able to vent out his anger on her. If he resents her so much, he should divorce her. I guess there are complications, if not, I don't understand why he doesn't cut ties with her physically, too.

The way he also disregards what she has been going through, too really makes me mad... You just don't compare your pain or hardships with other ones.
Well, I want to quickly see a moment where he is in her body and live and witness for himself how she has been alone accepting being blatantly cursed at being treated, not only inside but also outside of their manor disrespectfully.

There isn't anything that would hold them emotionally together, I would really like a story with the turn of events that lead them to divorce, similar like in the Remarried Empress. I haven't encountered others yet, where the intended main couple that was on bad circumstances actually end up parting instead of trying to fix or patch things up together for more than half of the story...
The few instances will make one really happy that it gets better but that process will be so slow and painful which is also a realistic portrayal of how long it takes to mend a broken relationship together..

A very similar plot to this, is the webtoon The Flower Dances and the Wind sings, where the relationship is just as ruined as this one's just that there the couple did have few good times together.

Well, I'll try to stick around for a bit but I can't handle the husband's outrages, it's like the only thing he is capable of doing. He makes it the most difficult to make a step forward to a healthy stability.

It's realistic and that's what makes it really sad, the stories where the focus is missing chances, the right person at the wrong time motive and the right vs. wrong choices that differ in each story.

I'm excited with what more stories this has to offer, I'm sure all of them will be just as wonderful.
Also I love the art style for these short stories a lot!

Gitchq March 2, 2021 11:02 am

Yet I will still continue reading it even though the ending is really clear, this feels like Anohana and a bit like Given from the character constellation.

I don't know what to expect with what happens between now and the ending but I'll be so broken sad if Hideto ends up losing his nonchalant smiles and breaks into tears saying that he actually doesn't want to pass on or that he wants to be alive again..

Even though this has a tragic end, Yuugen will end up striving to live a fulfilling and more outgoing life being thankful to Hideto showing him that there is good reason for him to try.

It was totally worth it, I spent 5 hours straight reading everything.

I really loved the suspense and the development, I liked how I wasn't able to choose one side the whole time because both sides were reasonable from what they wanted out of their relationship and how they wanted it to conclude at some points.

I liked how unexpected, to me at least, that Jaeha's own friend shot that picture and spread it around...

I believed that we could see Hanjun's story now or maybe Hesun's. I even thought just maybe that one friend of Eunho to be somewhat important, I don't know why though.

In general, I think besides in Stigma for example and only a few other webtoons, I felt how broken the main character(s) were and it wasn't written overly-dramatic but really beautifully.

At least the visual and the relationship between Juvelia/Jubelia? and her father, Regis. Just like in Abandoned Empress, I'm much more interested in the story of the father. This one even more than in AE!
I wonder if we get to hear about her mother maybe...?

This webtoon is so good, there's something about the Male Lead, I think Max, that is kind of new to me, it feels new to me but in a good way. I can't point out what it is about him though that makes me like him so much.

I guess when she decided to kill herself, Max probably wanted to get her out? And because Regis has a way of wording himself in a way that is really incredibly easy misunderstood and could he interpreted differently too, he also very much likely didn't give up on her but the knife he gave her is a mystery to me, too.
I doubt it was for her to kill herself, even if she had to die and he couldn't change it, I'd even believe that he would struck her himself so she wouldn't have to die by her own hands or others would kill her in a more painful way or something...

I really hope that just maybe we could get a glimpse of how things went on prior, in the timeline where she died and how Regis and Max reacted.

Looking forward to how things unveil one by one.

    I think the sword was given to her so that she could protect herself even without his father being there with her in the shadow room because after giving the sword, his father told her to endure, and on one of the recent chapters posted, the father told Max that swords are meant to be used in order to protect someone, and not to mindlessly kill people.

    I thought the same but he knows how much he loves her however she doesn't know that. I have a feeling it's a plot the Emperor did since she's his weakness. I wish it would show him finding out she killed herself in the other version and see the regret and grief he was filled with. Like the servants even know she's extremely lonely and wants love so how one he never caught on.

    Oh, to get the prior line connected to the father (and maybe Max too) in that way would be interesting to see too
