Is it just me or does it feel like the empress and emperor's love story is a little forced?? I think it's partly because we see things from the MC perspective so we don't get a lot of insight into what they do. But it also feels really forced and fake like the emperor is supposed to be an ancient being how is he going to catch feelings so easily. And I also expected the empress to be more mother-like, she's barely there, I mean I know she's trying to build a safe environment and future for her daughter but she also has to know the mental damage she has done and try to communicate more with her daughter more? At this point it's not really a redemption but more of a throw the MC into a good environment surrounding her with friendly people and call it a day, because at the end of the day she barely did anything to really fix her relationship with her daughter. And don't come at me with the "you only say this because she's a female and not with other mangas where there's a neglectful father" because I judge them as well okkkkk!!?!
