idk, something about the way it's drawn has thrown me off since chapter one and i just cant read it anymore. All the characters are drawn super sharp and harsh, and the ones that are supposed to be beautiful are just ugly to me. Her family, Tev, even Sylvia. And the way their teeth are drawn so sharply in every image, it always looks like they have fangs or something idk. The art is just... ugly to me. On top of that, I really just don't like the FL. I know I'm supposed to pity her past self and resent the ones who made her feel that way but tbh i just don't. The story just hasn't done enough to really flesh her out or her supposed tragic backstory. It TELLS me I should pity her, but doesn't really show me why. For all that "happened to her", she was a hundred times worse. The past Sylvia was literally just a whiny, vindictive little bitch. With a lot of FLs in the isekai trope, you get a FL who understands that their past shitty behavior was the reason for the shit that happened to them. Sylvia just blames everyone here except herself and takes no accountability for her awful personality, which honestly doesn't feel that different even with "new" Sylvia. Since she's still blaming everyone but herself, she still feels like the bratty Sylvia, and honestly she's just disgustingly rude to everyone for no reason. As far as her dad and brother are concerned, all they've known until now is the awful Sylvia, so why should they be expecting anything else?? She "went off" on her father the day after the old Sylvia broke her sisters arm?? Like girl shut the fuck up?? Sylvia was a nasty brat, how do they know you've suddenly taken over her body? Same with the brother like?? And I just... don't care that they were "mean" to past Sylvia and supposedly that's enough to explain her naturally shitty behavior - the old Sylvia was jealous and vindictive from the start, and her own nasty personality is what made her "ugly" and caused her to gain weight and act even worse. I just don't blame her environment. I think the original Sylvia was a vindictive little brat and, as the story hasn't actually SHOWN me a reason to pity her rather than just telling me I should, I'm going to keep that opinion. Honestly, it's just not my cup of tea and not my idea of a strong FL.

They literally just walked up to him in a training yard full of men and ladies watching them and were like hey, you're getting married, you're sixteen, it's time, oh and she'll be here soon. Lmao what in the wattpad is this? I know it's tempting to get to the FL & ML meeting but damn, world building is crucial if you don't want your story to come off as dumb and unbelievable as... well, as this. Lmao they really just rolled up in front of god and everyone and dropped major ass information about the future of the empire in front of a bunch of kids. Ridiculous.

I just can't read stories with FLs like this. She has two personality traits - crying and being dumb. That's literally all she does. She cries from the first chapter about every single thing. Just looking at the ML is enough to make her cry. She hardly speaks and when she does she's just begging him to stay with her. She has all the personality of a wet cabbage. There's literally a scene where she's sobbing bc they're riding a horse and he's going really fast and she's "s-so s-scared." It's vomit worthy how useless she's been this entire story but I'm supposed to believe he's actually intrigued by her?? I'm sure if I read to the end it'll wind up being explained by some preordained work of God that he was destined to love her blah blah blah. The plot armor of all FLs with no personality. On top of that, she's actively stupid. The only things she told herself not to do, she did. Repeatedly getting close to him, drawing him in, and then when he finally confesses to her, lo and behold it's time to cry again and reject him because she doesn't want to hurt him more in the future lmao. She all but throws herself at this man, then when he goes to kiss her she's a trembling, crying, useless lump... girl, idk what your endgame story here is but you came from the modern world at one point, why are you acting like this over a kiss? It's so unbelievably cringeworthy how she acts at every tiny touch. Forty chapters and barely anything has even happened besides her crying and then they rode a horse together in a competition. That's it. I'm not even mad that the ML here is actually gross and does shit like poisoning and killing his horse while they're riding just to throw them off and injure them so he can have her attention. It's unattractive and slimy, but he's supposed to be the villain so whatever I guess. Honestly, yall gotta set better standards for the stuff on here you call amazing storytelling. This FL is literally a piece of cardboard that cries and the ML is abusively obsessive over her past the point of villainy being an excuse. The author really needs to learn how to give her characters actual personality traits before she tells a story again. Oh, and the art is honestly just ugly. I tried to find it offbeat and pretty. But really, the art makes everyone look ugly.

At 93 chapters it's shorter than most other completed stories in this genre, so it was sort of a given that it wouldn't have as detailed or drawn out of a plot, and that the romance would happen quicker. It does feel a bit rushed because of this, but within it's own story it makes sense. Like I said, it's not as detailed as other stories - it's really a bare bones plot that's fairly predictable to follow. There's a very simple problem, and a very simple, uncomplicated solution and conclusion. Don't expect any amazing twists or turns here, it's fairly formulaic. It also reads extremely G rated, so again if you're looking for any sort of amazing maturity, be it emotional or physical, you're not going to find it here. All of the characters, especially the two leads, come off young and silly rather than mature or complex. The MC is loud and abrasive, always turning beet red for no reason and pointing and yelling when she's embarassed, and the male lead is pretty much the same. He has a few more deeper moments than she does, but still not enough to convince me either one of them were really Emperor and Empress material. Overall, it's a cute, short read if you're bored like I was waiting for other, better stories to update.

Just imagine, this intricate and mature plot is what The Abandoned Empress could have been. Finally, a Tia to make up for that god awful excuse of a heroine. I have zero bad things to say about this story, and that's including the story spoilers I've read up through the ending. The plot just gets better and better, and there's no doubt the webcomic will capture everything perfectly. The first life here is interesting, our heroine started getting shit done day one in her second life, she might not be a fighter like some heroines in this trope but she gets more done than most of them combined. The love interest is ***chefs kiss***. Supporting cast is interesting, all of the various plot lines are intriguing, and I won't post spoilers but this shit gets i n t e n s e asf and dark as hell in some parts. 10/10. I put this in my personal top three after Suddenly Became A Princess One Day and before Seduce the Villain's Father.

This has got to be the most refreshing reincarnation story I've picked up in ages. I can't count the number of times I've had to drop the phone from laughing so hard my stomach hurt, and yet even with how absolutely ridiculous and funny it can be, it still takes itself seriously and has an incredibly interesting storyline with hidden depth. I just can't decide my favorite aspect - Melissa's meme faces, her routinely going "What the f u c k?", the "male leads" discovering their hidden dominatrix kink every time Melissa beats their fucking ass and makes them grovel, Yuri being so mfn fed up w/this shit ass story she's stuck in, Yona and her bling, or Nine looking at Melissa like O.O and indulging in his newly acquired kink for head pats and Big Thick Bitches that routinely whoop wholesale ass. 10/10 story, I can't think of a single bad thing to say about this fourth wall breaking masterpiece.

I gave it my best shot. There are so few completed stories in the "fall into another world" or "reincarnation" tropes that when I saw a completed story with good reviews, I jumped on it. How this got those good reviews is just beyond me. This story reads like the cheesiest Wattpad novel I could imagine. Every line and interaction is cringe worthy, the MC is an absolute child, the love interest is grossly immature as well, the "villainess" is just as bad. It's impossible to take anything seriously due to the atrocious dialouge and lack of depth. There are other more developed stories in this trope with mature characters and storyline to spend your time on. This one just ain't it.

i tried soo hard to get into this story bc the plot was so interesting, and it's one of the very few reincarnation comics that are complete (looking at you, Suddenly Became A Princess One Day ) but unlike that masterpiece, this story couldn't hold a candle. For such an intense and mature beginning plot to the story, it almost immediately fell off and became flat, boring, and plain dumb. Every interaction, motivation, and scenario in this story felt childishly simple and G rated. There was no depth to anything, situations are minimal in their intricacy and complexity, character interaction is painfully cheesy and one dimensional, and the heroine, who should feel at least slightly mature as she's a grown woman in a young girls body, falls flatter than anybody. So just because she smiles in this time and speaks a little more, suddenly people are falling at her feet and she's off on some absolutely out of nowhere plot to be a... knight? God this story was painfully simple to be dragged out for 145 chapters. I'm not even mad she ended up with Ruve - it was dumb for anyone to ever assume otherwise tbh, this story was cliche asf from the first three chapters. I'm just disappointed that after such a dark and mature past life together, that could have led to some truly intense storytelling and real character growth together as a couple, that it was turned into such a childish fantasy of a story. Guess we're back to waiting for SBAPOD, this was nothing but a cheap knockoff.

Better than most reincarnation stories out there, even if it can't quite compare to something like Suddenly Became A Princess One Day. The plot was interesting enough, if drawn out at times with little to no real plot progression, but the heroine being an actual bad bitch who pulls the trigger on her own guns is amazing enough to make up for a lot. Raeliana got shit done from chapter 1 all the way until she pulled the LAST trigger. We stan a bad bitch. My only real issues with this story were that sometimes the storytelling felt... off. Rae was put in certain situations, starting with the Holy Temple, that were badly explained and so felt like you'd missed chapters or something. Situations would just suddenly be shown with little flow or context that left me as a reader feeling disconnected all of a sudden. Things that were A Big Deal according to the story fell a little flat because a lack of context or proper backstory. Over all, it's a good read, and Rae carries this story absolutely through it's flaws. Her and Noah's interactions are the cherry on top of a decent, well rounded story. Rae for empress, all hail the queen of the mfn trigger.

it was a decent story, and that's putting it nicely, certainly not as amazing as reviews made it sound, and elise was really just too perfect to be believable, even in a genre like this. but im mostly bothered by one major thing that i read the entire story waiting for an answer to and it just... never explained it.

Linden had her executed in her previous life... why? It literally just... never explained it. She kept saying she did some Big Awful Thing, and had done many other Awful Things that caused such great shame her brother had to go to war to try and restore honor to the family and shit, and then she did THE Big Awful Thing and then he fucking burned her at the stake and the story NEVER revealed why or how any of it happened. It got so caught up in perfect, do no wrong second life Elise that it just ignored her past life and what happened that was apparently so terrible.

Multiple other side plots were mentioned and then never resolved also, like the story got so busy on Mary Sue Elise that it just stopped focusing on actual plot. Linden and Elise never actually discussed him being Ron so that was a lot of plot for no real climax, her stepmother was supposed to die?? and was never addressed again, the doctor had like, two or three weirdly awkward scenes where he's just drinking and thinking about his love for Elise out of absolutely nowhere?

And lastly, there was just... no real climax to this story. It builds itself up to Elise finally like, DOING something about the "awful tragedy" and then she just, asks Linden not to do it lol? She bows sweetly and looks at him with big eyes? Then he says no and that's the end of her doing anything? After all that build up? The story felt so unresolved after the tension and the build up and this big huge thing and like, nothing happened.

Basically, it's a passable story to glance at a couple chapters at a time if you're bored, don't mind absolutely RIDICULOUS level Mary Sue heroines, and don't mind unresolved plotlines or lack of a real ending. The genre has better to offer, but I guess if you're desperate, this one will do.
