July's manga / #Historical(88)

Wow, the art for this webtoon is remarkable! The downside is that the story makes little sense so far, unfortunately. I only understood that the eunuch is trying get revenge against the imperial family for the deaths of his own family members, but nothing is explained properly. Such a shame that this art is wasted on an incoherent storyline...

Art is crap, I'm really disappointed. Barely any detective work, it's fast forwarding to romance already, which is a bad sign. Not really happy with the progress in the first couple chapters that are already out. I don't buy that either of the leads are that intelligent. It's just poorly written.

4-koma style webtoon with bad art and no plot. There's barely any plot or substance to it, and not even much BL. Characters are cardboard people and it's not even remotely funny. Update: It's finished now. It got slightly better later on, and the relationship between the Pharaoh and Mer was alright I suppose, though unconvincing. Art is sometimes really good, then goes back to being bad, which I disliked. It's not that great overall.

It's pretty hilarious, but currently slowing down in terms of plot. The art is nothing impressive, it's serviceable. The female lead is very strong and independent, but I feel there's a huge disconnect between her past life and her current life. No matter what, I don't see her as a professional assassin. The story's going for a reverse harem, and she's surrounded by ikemen. There's a lot of characters and it's easy to lose track of which characters have already been introduced. I don't like how she already slept with the Emperor even though their relationship hasn't gotten to the peak yet, and they both still have lots of secrets from each other.

It was great at the beginning, I liked Pauliana as the badass female lead. But later on, it skips a lot of the war to jump straight to romance, which sucks. There's not much focus on Pauliana herself, and more on the emperor's infatuation with her, which I find to be too rushed to be realistic. Pauliana is oblivious and stupid outside of fighting. I feel very let down by this webtoon. Art is ok, but Pauliana is not pretty at all. The emperor's forehead is way too wide, and I can't stop staring at it. It was even more obvious in the April Fool's chapter where he was bald, and I cannot unsee it. I'm pretty disappointed in this webtoon, it had a lot of potential to be great.

The art is really good for this webtoon! I love how the villainess female lead is actually a villainess and goes out of her way to make people pay, unlike other villainess isekai where the villainess attempts to right their wrongdoings and become the heroine. She's very intelligent and doesn't really rely on other people to help her, it's quite refreshing to read.

Art is quite nice, the female lead is very distinctive. I enjoyed the first couple of chapters but she caught the interest of the male lead too quickly in my opinion, and the story is getting boring already unfortunately. There's no real conflict yet and I feel this interesting female lead's potential was wasted.

Art is somewhat lacking, the princess is not cute at all. She's supposed to be the most powerful mage in the world, but conveniently cannot use her powers. She's not really that intelligent. I'm a little bored by this writing. It's not fleshed out and not that enjoyable to read. The best parts of the webtoon are her interactions with her new brothers and father, and that's the only reason this gets 3 stars from me.

The art is truly beautiful, and the first half of the story really tugged at the heartstrings and made me cry. However, the male lead aged too fast to bring him to a romance-able age for the female lead, and now it's slowly getting boring. That's why I docked a star off. These types of webtoons always focus on ageing the protagonists too fast to get to the "juicy" romance, but it's a turnoff for me. I like a slow burn. Update: It just sucks now. Please kill it off quickly. Even the art quality dropped a lot from the beginning. Also the translations are not good.

The art is ok, not the best art I've seen. I like the male lead slowly falling for the female lead, but I don't like how the original heroine is turning evil. A lot of villain isekai ends up with the hero becoming the villain and vice versa, so I thought this webtoon would break the trend because it wasn't like that in the beginning, but unfortunately it seems to fail my expectations.
