I usually like this author, but the story isn't my cup of tea... for obvious reasons. So I'm going to drop it. I really wish it turned into some sort of silly fluff piece rather than what's happening, but they all can't be winners!
Also random tangent I have been craving potatoes all day today. I really want a potato!!! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
Okay random tangent is over.
I will admit that I enjoyed the story, but I am very sad that it's going on to do the Harem thing as always. Like I enjoyed the first girl, she's nice, and she hasn't done anything to make me annoyed at her. And I also thought it was funny that the grandpa was the unique one who would go to all sorts of brothels and such.
But then they how to throw in the demon girl, and the elfs. And now it's a big old harem. I mean at least if you're going to have a harem, put in more personalities, and not the "I want to fuck this dude", "I hate this dude but I'm secretly blushing", "oh my gosh I'm so clumsy but I have big tits", troupes and personalities.
Like seriously, I'm so tired of this shit. I don't mind the dude being passive, but at least I want one story that straight up rejects the girls and the girls actually fucking listen. If you're going to have a character who really doesn't care, then have a character who really doesn't care. Not a character who doesn't care but also gets horny, AND NEVER SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT HIS LITTLE HAREM. But if you have the strength to ignore that crap, it's a very good story.
I willingly admit, if it didn't have all these girls in it, I would be in love with the story. I think it's very interesting and nice.
I really do love the story, and I keep on going back and reading it. But I'd like to voice of pretty large complaint that I've had with the fucking mother of the story for a long time.
She did not make her decision as a "Mother and Queen". I called complete bullshit. If she was truly going to act as if a mother would, wouldn't you try your best to make your child understand their wrongdoings? Like, if you are a little premonitions are showing that your child is being a spoiled fucking brat, wouldn't you try your best to change it? Cuz I know I would.
Not to mention you would personally birth and raise a child, in secret? In which you seem to succeed in teaching a good personality, although I hate her personality I hate those types of personalities in stories. But that child did nothing wrong so no hate on her. But clearly you know how the mother, how to raise your children right, but you didn't do that for your other child?
Like, no. Just no. I know if I was Pryde, I would have never accepted that. Even if I was just reincarnated as her, I would be so offended for that girl. All her love, and Parental Guidance wasn't given to her, and then all the sudden this mystery child comes over, and she gets all the loving in the world. Shitty mother. That's all I have to say.
Not to mention the father isn't the clear either, because unlike the mother he was hanging around his daughter, but he didn't seem to be doing anything about teaching her about her shitty personality. Not to mention he's going to let his wife sweep it underneath the fucking rug. Shitty parents, period.
Am I getting too heated over this? It just freaking annoys me. Does anyone else agree or am I just weird?
I was thinking the exact same thing. I’m so pissed off at the queen rn! She should have at least tried to educate her child before basically abandoning her and “starting over” with a new child in secret. She had no right to abandon her own child like that. From the path the story is on right now it is pretty obvious that the future can be changed, so the Queen should’ve tried her best to prevent the future she saw from happening instead of abandoning the poor mc.
Yeah, chapter 5 of the manga isn't really doing Rosa (the Queen) any favors. The novel expands on [this chapter] a bit. Such as...
- Rosa is VERY BAD at empathy. She was abandoned by both of her parents and raised by her nanny into an emotionless robot whose only function was to best serve her country. She did not "break programming" until she met her future husband at 16.
- Rosa first had the vision about Pryde's condemnation event when she was still pregnant with Tiara.
- Rosa was so traumatized by "failing to raise Pryde right" that SHE DID NOT RAISE TIARA. Tiara was raised by a nanny (named Chelsea). Rosa only came to visit Tiara occasionally to educate her as the future Queen (note that Pryde also received these exact same lessons, it's only that Rosa taught Tiara personally.)
- Rosa has several visions a month--which is a LOT, given that the average seems to be one or two a YEAR in this family. (This means she has seen the Pryde vision several times a year for seven years, meaning she's seen it a MINIMUM of 21 times.)
- Rosa is naturally predisposed to having visions of Unavoidable Futures. (Unavoidable Futures can neither be changed nor avoided.) Furthermore, Rosa has tried numerous times to prevent several of these visions and failed EVERY SINGLE TIME.
That said, yes, I do believe that there was a lot that could have been changed if Rosa was involved in Pryde's childhood. For one thing, Pryde might have grown to have some actual self-esteem, since Rosa seems to be the only one capable of actually praising Pryde when she does right. Everyone else criticizes her when she's wrong and ignores her when she's not causing trouble. (Lone exception: Everyone's OTHER least-favorite character, Gilbert, also gives Pryde positive feedback.)
So I've read the story a couple of times now because I really do love it. But for some fucking reason my brain decided, "You know what? This man looks like Gurgi from the Black Cauldron. You know what? They all look like Gurgi," and since then I Cant stop picturing them all as Gurgi--- HELP
Can't say it's the same old isekai plot, I don't remember remember reading a story like this. I hope she does kind of bird things, like... Chirp, eat seed... y'know as birds do.
I don't know why some of these stories are marked as completed that just got uploaded. Cuz I know they're not completed, and I know that some of them have more chapters. It's a little strange.
Did anyone notice at the end of chapter one, one of the memes was Despereaux the mouse. I haven't watched that movie in years. And I'm surprised that I still remember the name and how to spell it...
OMG update lmfao, or else this looks like a very unfortunate ending!
Yeah, I thought the same ╥﹏╥
