I remember starting this and then dropping it cuz I'm not a big fan of harems. This is because the story is dragged out and the readers don't find out until the 100th chapter who the mc ends up with. But I saw a lot of people liked this and it has a 9.5 rating so I wanna start reading it again. Should I give it a try?

As for now there isn't a huuuuuuuge advance in romance, the nice thing is the plot itself I would say, how much she can accomplish as a ruler and how her politics benefits the people, how much she will expand her territory and how much power can she acquire.
I recommend it, imo, I have not read spoilers, it does seem she is going to end up with all of them, as she mentions she would like concubines.

So I was trying to find out what I like so much about this yaoi (besides the great smut)... and it's because the uke is honest with his feelings and is not a tsundere. When he realized his feelings for arou, he wasn't in denial. He merely accepted it. And once they became a couple, he constantly expressed his affection and didn't make arou feel like he was the only one deeply in love. While I do like yaoi where the uke is a tsundere and the seme is still deeply dedicated to the uke (eg. LOVE IS AN ILLUSION), this felt so much better. This is my third time reading it lmao

I love where its going and I like how the emperor likes her now but... IT STILL DOESNT EXPLAIN WHY THE EMPEROR SUDDENLY FAVORS HER NOW???

I think maybe they had a good relationship before...but it wa toxic? Like obviously he had no issues listening to her when it comes to punishing people so he most likely encouraged her rotten behavior before.
But then first princes showed up and taught him to be less cruel...but now that's what second princess is doing.

Its crazy how these comments be hating and nitpicking at certain things while I'm sure if this was a yaoi, there would be no complaints. This is honestly one of the most decent shoujo mangas I've read so far. The rest of them have rape (by the male lead), naive childlike MC'S, and and crazy unrealistic super-skinny female bodies.
Spoiler:
Based on the novel, it takes a long time before they confess their love for each other
Oh, JUST COME ON!!!! Whyyyyy??!!!!!
Thats it, I'm out ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
