Fucking finaly!!!
I don't understand these protagonists who think themselve to be smart. They want to avoid their death flags? So you think all you can do is avoid the main leads? By divorcing? By running away? Why do they always think that these characters who they believe to just be a character from the book or game they know will behave according to the script?
It just frustrate me because they all want a "normal life" or "live a peaceful life far a way from the main leads" or "let the main lead marry the heroin because the script says so" without even consider the other characters feelings.
I can understand the protagonist's thoughts. She thinks that there is no way that she can stop the plot or that unless she disappears the plot will continue tormenting her. But has she ever consider that she isn't the same person as in the books or games? She is a different person. She behaves differently as the book or game intended her to do.
I don't really care what she wants to do with her life but don't try to excuse yourself by saying "I can't do anything because plot", "He is happier that way. Without me, he and the heroin can be happy together" or "Go away, I just want to live an ordinary life. I don't want to die" etc.
I have seen these over and over again and it's getting very frustrating. I can just not read these kind of stories and I try to avoid them but I like stories about transmigrating protagonists. So I can't just not try reading one then I see one.
Is it more interesting when the protagonist tries to not act according to the plot? Yes is it. Is it even better when the protagonist is just living her life the way she wants without caring about whether she is getting close to the main leads or not and without caring about the plot? Yes, absolutely.
Who cares about the plot. The only advantage is knowing the future (which is not absolute and can differ from the protagonists memories) but that's all. So what? the future is not set in stone. It can change.
So fucking stop trying to be selfless and wanting the best for others while not even trying the best for oneself. Just be selfish (the kind of selfishness where you are not purposely causing harm to others) and see the characters as people and live your life instead of being narrow-minded and thinking the world as a book or game.
Puhhh. Sorry for the rant. I am very happy Canaria realized it too and is living for herself.
Stan a feminine queen who takes her time and waits for the perfect opportunity to strike. Did danaerys targaryen start showing off her power as mother of dragon? No. She would have been instantly disposed of once she is found as a threat. Her goal was to not get killed. And when Caesar confessed, she start to take action and mobilise her arsenal. Seriously, what kind of lesson are you going to teach ur kid, be selfish cos its entertaining to watch!?
You mistake every manhwa to be They say I was a Kings daughter. Will that manhwa is absolute misogynistic trash, this manhwa however is fuckin Great. And it manages to give power to the female mc in 45 short chapters. Compare that to Sanghee from the kings daughter manhwa who is still simply useless. Pls don't lump in Hero's wife with kings daughter. U will give me cancer if u can't even discern the quality of these two works
I totally get what you mean 100%
But at least Canaria has finally woken up and decided to be assertive and live life the way she wants and is finally treating Caesar as a real person with his own thoughts and feelings.
BTW if you like reading web novels as well as yaoi, I totally recommend "Quickly Wear the Face of the Devil". The main character is badass and actively changes the plot to however the hell he wants, it's super satisfying to read
I think you've totally missed that it's not just because she thinks she needs to follow the plot.
Her first goal was to not be killed by him when they divorced. That's a fair goal and she has achieved it.
But why did they have to divorce in the origional story? Because he needs to marry a woman with a stronger allies to become emperor and be safe from the current Empress. She doesnt think they have to divorce just because of the plot. Divorce was an honestly still would be the safest and easiest way to achieve this.
Please dont shit on her for trying to do what's best for the person she cares about.
It's not a manga, it's a novel, but it's reaaally good! Here's the link:

Great story so far. I really love the fact that they don't have a time-skip from her as a baby to her as a 7/10/12/13 year old or what not. It's more realistic to see how she, who is mentally older, is trying to act like a baby/child XD
And she and her family are sooo cute >.<
Their interactions are so adorable!!!
Why is this considered to be a horror? I don't get it.
But the Story and the art style is nice.
