Been reading this on Lezhin since and I'm absolutely in love with it! It's a little confusing at times at least for me, but that just adds to the uneasy vibe this webtoon gives off in a good way! The characters are so well written too~ I usually don't go for this type of comics but MSCBP is just so good.

My heart has never gone so wild over a webtoon character.
Also this wahhh(/▽\*)

The MC is so annoying... She's not even trying to pretend to be a young child. Like seriously, you're just gonna go ahead and talk full sentences with complicated words no child over the age of 14 should know at the age of 1 year??? I get that yeah, she missed her family and wanted to tell them how much she loves them but... Wouldn't just a simple "I wuv yuu all" been enough?? Does she WANT to raise suspicion?? Like some times she does seem worried about people finding out her situation but she really at NO POINT think that 'hey, maybe I shouldn't talk and act like an adult when I'm 2-5 years old because that's pretty damn suspicious'?? Like Jesus, she's lucky everyone around her is a fricking idiot.
Still tho this is pretty decent, I'm gonna keep reading it (I'm at ch. 36 when writing this) ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
I do think Lippe should act as a child more to avoid suspicion but she isn't that annoying for me. But srsly, she should be able to rely on others more and stop being so uptight! And yes, I know she is supposedly already an adult but she still really is a child! Much more than she thinks and not relying on others can put a huge strain on oneself!
Do you not realise how much her precocious behaviour has helped her though? Everyone loves her more due to this and she has gathered many people on her side. People around her aren't idiots at all, like what would you even do in a situation like this? Certainly not assume she's actually older that's for sure. Yeah it may be "suspicious" but you really think people's first thought is gonna be "oh she must reincarnated or how else would a child act like this??", like, no. Of course they just assume she's some sort of a genius who may or may not have been tutored secretly; but nevertheless it still plays hugely to her benefit.
It's hard to say for sure since we are yet to fully get to explore the world of this we toon, but if it is at all similar to how things were in the real world, people would right away call it witchery, say she is possessed or that the parents made a deal with the devil. Of course, I'm only assuming they have that sort of things in this universe. I guess if they have somehow avoided those things in this universe, they wouldn't call on it.
Yes, her smartness has benefited her a lot, I won't try to deny that. I think it was a great thing of her to progress quickly out of the baby phase so that she could start planning for the future early. But there are plenty of other ways to gain other's liking other than saying things children her age shouldn't know. Everyone seems to dote on her cuteness, she could easily use it more of as a weapon than using difficult words and calling someone out on how they treat their daughter (something she shouldn't even know). Of course, her trying to change bad relationships early on to prevent bad things from happening in the future is good too, but there are a million other ways to do them even while acting and talking like a child.
So, it still annoys me that she's not even trying to act the way a girl her age should act. You bring up very good points though and I acknowledge and appreciate you sharing your opinion on the matter^^
Yeahh! And when she had her birthday party where she told her family members she loved them i feel like she just wants to convey her love properly to them due to her last life where she didn't get a chance to say it before they all died.
And yep, it would be weird for someone (especially an adult) accusing a child to be reincarnated because she's so goddamn smart.
I mean that's my opinion but, i don't know i feel like if you'll properly understand if you consider of what she has gone through. She has experienced a traumatic event that happened in her previous life. She feels determined not to lose her family members to death and to protect them.
So her not hiding her cleverness, perfect sentences and manners might have something to do with her wanting to protect (the scene where her mom got accused, the scene where the white hair kid said some rude things to the pink haired cross-dress kid, the scene where her ex-teacher was acting cocky and rude to her brother and tried to hit her, ect) She might've already known and acted like herself on her previous life than pretending to be a child to defend her and her family and friends.
Or that's just me overthinking stuff.
Well, I don't hate your opinion at all, I also think she could've pretended, but she's in too deep now and that maturity has helped her gain some much-needed connections. I just think the comparison to this opinion is funny, I've seen people complain about other stories like this when the MC acts like a child instead of an adult. XD
I think we've progressed beyond automatically thinking one is possessed/practicing 'witchery'/making deals with the devil in this era. Not saying that it won't be a thought (because it most likely could be) but instead I'm saying that we don't automatically think that way anymore (at least not as persistently). And acting like a child would limit her options in avoiding the destruction of her family. Willingly doing that would make her 'stupid' and annoying. Imho.
Ngl I was reading this out of boredom and nothing else. Not a big fan of the story but damn, ch. 33 is fucking GOLD.
Staying here for the comedy in hope of more chapters as funny as this wwwww
