I'm doomed... I'm gonna die alone... I need a Richard to match my freak...

I fear this type of man is my type and unfortunately they're very hard to find ╥﹏╥

This is what I mean by good shoujo!! It's not overly cliche that it focuses on only romance. There's proper development. The characters also weren't made to just fall in love with each other, but to live their own lives and be their own person with personalities.

Rintaro didn't start off written as the ML who bakes cakes solely for the reason of gifting it to Kaoruko, the FL, he bakes them because he has a background that's detached from her—he has an actual genuine interest in baking inspired by that chef and his family. Same goes for the other side characters. When a character feels grateful, it's not just direcred as if the love interest is the only person who contributed and actually changed them for the better, they acknowledge that it's the combined experiences they got from friends, family, and other people. It's not a "lover saves me from everything, they are my only saviour" type of trope.

It also feels so refreshing and light to read, sure there are some hiccups, trauma, and personal conflicts that adds depth to the characters—when they struggled about their future careers, for example—but it's not overly exaggerated or not relatable to the point that it's so dark? I'm actually reading a regular person's love story that's easier to come across in real life.

I also really like how the story doesn't mainly revolve as if they're the only ones who exist, the manga also focuses on building relationships between the FL and ML's seperate social circles. The FL doesn't always just hang out with ML and vice versa, we see platonic interactions between all of them like how real life friend groups go and merge.

This is basically my dream relationship! Two people like each other so much while still preserving the person they were before they met each other. Me and who? ;-;

I hate bitchy past life lovers, because they're so entitled and possessive. But if they were actually sweet and genuine like Ramona, I'll feel so conflicted about it and hope for her happy future

I would love for the Stuart family to migrate to imperial Japan, I think they'll do amazing and acclimate instantly.

With covers ans artstyles like these, it's 97% a manwhore/slut/ntr/pwp type of read. Gotta turn off the brain for this. Some people might use it to jack off, while I read it because I like seeing how bad these are

Idc about the plot, it's just hilarious seeing how their personalities are handling things.

I live for that one rich vip woman that was super assertive, was able to take on both on them, and can dominate the situation. So far she's the only one who isn't cheating and that's such a power move lmao.

Was hoping to see her again especially since I think the secret club is seperate from the vip upgrade she got by referring the 2 other girls? She didn't even show up in the secret club too. Oh well, at least she had a cameo and it looks like she's doing just fine as a regular.

I LOVE AN FL THAT UTILIZES HER MODERN KNOWLEDGE TO CONQUER THE WORLD!! THIS IS THE ONLY TIME I SUPPORT CAPITALISM BECAUSE SHE'S OWNING IT!!

Ngl, while the crown prince is annoying, this is one of the few manhwas that really takes offense on the "romantically attravted to adopted sibling trope". Like
he's got a point there (+FL father). Usually, everyone brushes it off and doesn't even find it weird/noticeable, but this time it really is weird—esp when they kept proclaiming sister and brother alot in public setting only to get weirdly chummy with each other

Fucking hell, their skinship beats every other manhwa couples' dynamics and yet they aren't even together + confessed yet lmao
