somnia's manga / #Reincarnation(194)

The beginning was good, but idk why, all of a sudden it got so difficult to keep on reading. By the time (SPOILER) Edmund yeets into heaven I felt so out of what was happening that I just felt bored by his death. (SPOILER END) Idk if it's the translations fault or what... maybe it's because there's always a bit of silliness squeezed into almost every scene, or it's just that the characters are actually not all that deep and 3 dimensional? Also, just a personal turn-off but I hate how Clete and Tita's relationship had to be handled in such a dramatic way. Would've been nice if Clete snapped out of being slow and for real told and explained him that she just can't return his feelings because of their guardian-ward relationship, their age gap and his lack of experience. Legit when he confessed out of nowhere I went like "He's gonna leave the next day then, huh"- it was SO predictable. Legit everything went downhill after that whole hunting trip thing. What happened by itself was a nice shake-up, but I feel like the outcome of that could've been so much more interesting instead of having them have to return back to ground 0 and wait for whatever consequences at home... in the end it felt like nothing changed despite how hard it affects all these important characters.

A more lighthearted take on a villainess' reincarnation story. Our mc is a sunfish who'll die in 6 months and to return to her own world she'll have to have a happy marriage with the og villainess' crush.

Cute stuff. The dads are hot and have substance despite kinda falling into tropes. Might as well skip the whole egghunt thing tho, it just feels like a cheap way to introduce the other 2 dads as well as a failed attempt as building up plot. There's a lot of cheese in here and people who look for plot-driven stories should probably go look elsewhere (at least at this point, who knows, so far I don't see that kinda vibe tho).

The beginning got me pretty curious... but trust me, the more you read, the more you end up questioning the whole plot and genre of the story. FL's attitude is the center of most frustrations. Starts off with you thinking "ok, justified way of thinking" and the more you read, the more annoyed you get by how oblivious, one-dimensional, repetitive and unaware FL is for a person who, not only lived in a modern day society but also invented everything she is witnissing rn... Including an Emperor so evil and vain he steals eyeballs ffs- though, tbh the Emperor also feels lowkey cartoon-evilish and flat, so you can argue that it does make sense after all. Speaking of other characters, most of the characters who get more than 5 seconds of spotlight also turn out to be kinda dull. To put it short: The writing is bad and I need first aid before I fall into a coma from all the logical fallacies which I have so regularly encountered.
