good point

Yhh and the "perfect at everything" is explained away by the 100-something lives doing 100-something things like ughhhh so boringggg. And we don't know the details of the past lives so rn if she said she knew how to tap dance on thin ice we'll have no choice but to believe her. It's just not compelling.

"What's the point of reading if she isn't supposed to grow as a character?"

The scenario. And we still see her interactions with the world and people.

Although I can understand that this still has an audience. People like to see ppl be "OP just for the sake of being OP" (eg one punch man). What makes up for what essentially is an MC with no physical challenges is comedy, characters, setting, finding other ways to challenge MC, or just simply flexing as hard as one can. It's all based on viewer preference.

I personally like OP stories where the MC was slighted and wants revenge (eg ranker who lives a second time) or when the just started off weak (eg. Solo leveling). These type of MCs are loved because they have ambitious, story-and-reader-stimulating goals, justice or power. This MC's goals is to be lazy for once; she has an ambition to have no ambition XD. How she interacts with other ppl and this world is where the attention has to go for stories like this.

Soo agree, right now the story it's not like what she will do, what problems will she face, no, FUCK No it's about what else she is perfect in. Like the male lead ( blacky) is the same. He's boring perfect and cold to people there will be no growth. The maid is just annying....like I'm here because there aren't any better mangas than this

Thissss!! This story is so mediocre. It's only good to turn off my brain and binge

Same honestly. There's better manga, but I'll ready this trashy ones for the same reason I'll watch trash movies.

completely agree

yeah but its too early, this is just the start of her development. its realistic, i like it

It was development though. For the first time in her life she had someone back her up as she used her authority while her husband was gone. She proceeded to stand her ground when she was PERSONALLY attacked. That takes a lot of courage when you have your disability mocked in front of many people. (You have no idea how humiliating it is to have a condition you have to deal with made fun of in front of a room full of people who don't know you.)

If anything I think she has evolved nicely. She went from believing she was unworthy of her position and feeling petrified that husband would reject her because she was a "defect." (Something her father kept saying AND abused her for it.) She has openly admitted her flaws and asked for help so she can navigate her position properly without being taken advantage of. She embraced everything she had to learn because she knew it was now her duty to run the house and land in her husband's stead. Everything she had to learn was VERY difficult given she had never really been given lessons for anything. (She had no idea about how money worked or anything until she was educated on it.)

Given the time frame all of this is taking I would say her progression is going very well. It doesn't matter if she has a stammer or not at this point. She has a land of people who have accepted her and her "odd" way of speaking and do not mention it. They simply treat her like another person. - Something she has NEVER had in her entire life.

So she did shine. She flexed that wonderful new spine.

If this had gone with her doing everything perfectly now I would pretty much drop this because it is still way too early for her to shine since she has only JUST managed to learn about running things properly. It would be ridiculous to expect her to know how to defend the land right now.

Oh wow that's well explained (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

that's so true, there's what we called development i mean you cant expect her to change over night... for me she's doing just
fine（づ￣3￣）づ

I agree 100% with you (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

I understand, however there is still no thematic reward for her hard work. Her development isn't being used to progress the plot and that in a narrative point is unsatisfying. So far it's only been used for character growth, which is fun, but a good story would allow her to impact the narrative. I'm sure she'll have more times to move the plot on her own, but considering how much build up was given, I was expecting the solution not to end up being 'I need my strong husband to save me'. They could've used her problem-solving skills which they already established with the Tree arc, and I think that would've been more impactful.
I would even have preferred if she offered a solution, the knight guy still gets mad and attacks her, and only then does the ML show up. I just think it would've showcased her growth better and also be less cliche. It shows she can't solve every solution, while also highlighting what she's good at and what she's learned.
However, I know this story is more of a romance than a character story. So I get why the author would rather bring the ML now so they can develop the relationship which has been stagnant. Though I honestly do prefer the story when the ML isn't here, the FL doesn't get to express herself as freely as when she's on her own.

she's like that because growing up, her father abuses her, so maybe she hesitates to do things because she's afraid people will gonna do the same thing her father did to her whenever she makes a mistake

of course she won't be good at anything at first, she never got any attention or education on the world around her. how can she be good if they never let her try anything and isolte her, abuse her, breaking her spirit apart. I'm surpise she manage to ask for help at all after all the abuse. if you were in her place, would you be good at anything?
but the good thing about her she want to be better and learn, so she can improve herself

I get that the story is supposed to see her evolve and become more capable, but it seems that so much of her appeal is how oblivious she is. Which is kind of iffy to me. Besides her father did abused her but she did get an education, as she has at least basic knowledge of the kingdom, so it's not like she is ignorant of nobility. I wish the story would focus more on her first before forcing her into a relationship, because right now she's acts a lot like a child.

I'm pretty sure she didn't get an education, or at least not a good one, she was neglected and abused. Even if she got an education, she wouldn't be confident in what she learned because of how much she was belittled, but now that she's in a new environment she's able to peacefully-ish learn and voice out her confusion. I'm pretty sure she is basically a child mentally, but she'll get there someday

you're saying that as if it's her fault... blame the people who mistreated and neglected her. You would understand if you were abused before ,im not assuming but if you've gone through something similar it would be ignorant of you to say such things.

She might have been taught the basics of her home, but being taught and actually doing something is completely different. She never went to parties, talk to someone comfortably, the only thing she had was abuse from everyone that surrounded her fairytales. Experience is what takes you places not a textbook.

Here is the fucking thing SHE IS TRYING TO LEARN!!!! Did you happen to see that??? Were you to busy looking at her insecurities and making that her only charatraits, were you to blind to see she is actually changing little by little. She doesnt act ignorant because she is head strong, once she learns she knows what is right and wrong, she doesnt want to disappoint people and she is afraid to be hurt.

She isnt acting like a child, she isnt throwing tantrums when she doesnt understand or when she doesnt get her way. She doesnt take what she thinks is right and then throws it in everyone's face. She isnt a shining hero, she isnt the cunning villainess, she isnt the bratty kid that's gets in everyone's way. She isnt asking for much of anything and she is MOST CERTAINLY not asking to be treated like she was. She is only trying to survive.

Abuse messes people up, dipshit. She is in her healing process, and when someone is hurt "babying" is only human right. It gives her reassurance to know she has done good which builds confidence SOMETHING SHE DOESNT HAVE BTW!!! she isnt choosing to be incapable of doing things, but she is trying to do them right.

I wasn't busy making that her only characteristics, the author already does a good job about it. Or do you know anything else about her?Cause I wish I did. I like her. I don't like, so far, how the story progresses and is using her narrative. Did you get that? Or do I need to randomly write in caps-locks for you to understand?

I totally agree with this one.

I know nothing more of the story than what is on this website. I do not read the novel nor do I look at the spoilers people have said. All I know is what I've read. People see things differently than other my understanding of her character has heavy influence on my general understanding of fictional writing and personal experience.

Also my usage of capitalization was to emphasize my point because some people (I am not directing at anyone specifically) seem to look over thing I am saying. But also more importantly it was to had a sense of light heartedness and a more comical interpretation of the point I was trying to get across.

Capitalization helps draw the eye, and even helps break up text, for some easier to read. It's the same when we split up paragraphs to not make it seem so blocky, or like when we use commas, periods, brackets, hyphens, and most importantly the use of the space bar. Youcouldtypeeverythinglikethisandpeoplecouldread,maybe. But that isn't every attractive

I see where you are coming from. I love maxi and cant wait for character development, but to grow she needs to ask for help (which she is doing yay!) I think that the story is going for a long process of healing, because in real life, that is what it takes. Maxi is an admirable woman. I also want to see her progress more as herself rather than a relationship, but sometimes relationships help heal other people, which is what Riftan is helping Maxi with if that makes sense? I see where you are coming from though, and some people misunderstood your intentions.

I get where you're coming form, but I have a much more pessimistic view of the narrative so far. I just feel like this story won't focus on her development at all. It's clearly way more interested in the relationship between Maxi and the Riftan. Which wouldn't be bad if they were on equal footing, but it's clear that Maxi needs to grow a lot more in order to be in a healthy relationship.Their relationship is also much more physical than emotional, mostly due to Riftan not being a great communicator which does more damage to Maxi who's already prone to doubting herself. I'll continue reading hoping that the manga will prove me wrong because I really do like the art.

I hope so too!

I disagree it won't focus on her development, what the story did until now and will do in the future most of the chance is focus on her healing and Maxi mantel state. we saw how she changes a lot, she is able to ask for help after all the abuse she felt. it may seem simple and nothing to you, but for people that suffer abuse is a big stape, very big. most of them will never ask anything their whole life

mostly I don't really mind will focus on both things, since relationships, many of them and not just her husband help people grow better from how they are. personality I don't think it a toxic or bad relationship, he spoils her a lot but that what she needs right now and he feel it. both of them influence each other, so of course, it will change when she changes.
I think right now they still new (both of them) so they mostly using physical, but like I said I do believe Ritan does give a big emotional support! and it does help her a lot.

True! I feel really pained reading this manga. The prince just deprives her of her freedom and never explains anything to her! I feel so sorry for the FL because we all know they're gonna get together whatever the fuck happens.
