Black Dragon's Taste
I think this is completed? Sure seemed like an ending. Not so sure how I feel about this one. There is 1 chapter that is repeated, I thing 46 and 47 are the same, so we don't see how fucking dark the ML gets, but he dies attempt to seriously murder the FL. Then a few chapters later we're supposed to just forgive him and believe he is in love? A lot of the story seemed a bit jumpy and weird. It felt like entire panels were left out sometimes. The art itself was decent, bordering on cute instead of beautiful, but the story was more suspenseful than cute. I dunno. Maybe 4.5/5?
I'm a Fake Saintess but the Gods are Obsessed
Reading official chapters only. FL is reincarnated into the body of a villainess character from a book she read. This character, Ariel, is a fake saintess brought in by the Pope and the Prince to gain power and stability. The original Ariel was killed when the real saintess appeared and she went after her in her jealousy. The 3 ML all took part in killing her and were all married to the saintess in the original story. However, now, the blue status windows that only saintesses can see start appearing for FL and the gods are interested in her. The pope falls for her, and he's a fucking creep. The prince originally acts angry about the original Ariel writing a love letter/marriage proposal to him, but then gets upset that she denies meaning any of it and also becomes obsessed. 3rd ML is some merchant guy, and he's also a stalker and weirdo. Honestly none of them are ML material and I hope she ends up with none of the above, but it seems like it'll be a harem situation. Anyways, I stopped at chapter 38 or so because the translation got too clunky to understand. Where I left off she had just revealed her powers by saving her handmaid priestess friend and was being stalked by merchant while ...buying property? Thats why I stopped until better translations because I honestly couldn't tell. Wait for official translation/better translation chapters. Left off at ch 40 Despite my qualms with the male leads, the art is phenomenal, the story is interesting, and quite comedic. I love the reactions of the gods. I still think she shouldve bought the whip when Oman discounted it in the store, but whatever. The main character seems to view the ML as dangerously as they actually are for now. I'm hoping she doesn't fall for their bullshit toxic "love". So far, with the good translations, 4.9/5
Marronnier Farm Near by the Imperial Palace
FL is some noble whose grandpa dropped her off at a farm as a kid so he could go hunt for treasure. She quickly is discovered to have a green thumb. When gpa picks her back up she doesn't want to leave. She dreams of the day she can have her own farm but she is the heir to whatever noble title the gpa holds. So she worked at a bank until gpa came back with a deed to some land and says she can finally have a farm. Issue is, it's on a plot of land the emperor wanted to demolish to expand the palace. So it's right beside the garden outside his bedroom windows. He and his friends and advisor mistake her intentions when she refuses to sell and vacate the home as someone trying to intentionally drive up the price. But one by one the friends come and partake of the food and her company and get her help and they all change their minds. The emperor even gets her help disguised as a knight. Butttt he still won't support her openly yet. He does catch some girls trying to ruin a tea party by eating all her foods the night before, but still as the knight. He is stubborn. Anyways, the villainess girl is abused by her fam emotionally and was just given some concoction to put in our FL's cooking to ruin her. Fam said they'd kick her out if she doesn't become the empress basically. The translations on the newer chapters aren't the best, so I'll wait for official translations. I left off at ch 38. I like this story so far and love the art. It's so cutest. Makes me think of a farming Sim somehow. Hahaha. I honestly think that, so far, this one is 5/5
Dragon Raising Manual
Dropping this one. Haven't enjoyed reading it for a while. The art is good but the story is boring with a boring FL. FL dies and is sucked into what seems to be a game in her phone. She is a princess who is the younger sister of a shitty prince who apparently r****d her to try and incestuous keep their blood pure since it has healing capabilities or some shit but then he was supposed to marry the tyrant emperor's sister which meant the emperor would take his sister into his harem. When FL wakes up in the world, she has survived an accident in the forest that was actually the emperor trying to kill her. She runs into some "merchants" aka the dragon army peeps and hits it off with the leader who is actually a prince. He's looking for the stone thing that her kingdom has that would revitalize people because he was basically tortured and mutilated until he can't transform as a dragon. He brings FL back to town, then runs into her again in the castle when she overhears him and her creepy ass brother plotting to kill the tyrant emperor at the wedding. She befriends the tyrants sister and feels bad that she'll be blamed for poisoning the emperor and so she gets rid of the poison and doesn't run away like she promised the merchant/dragon prince she would. Blah blah blah, she goes to academy and makes 2 guy(?although theyve been implying one os gay, in a recent chapter the dad of one wants his kid to dress ina dress and it is implied they are a girl so i dunno???) Friends,she gets emperor on her side a bit, gives dragon dude bloods, sleeps with the dragon dude, they break up because she won't run away with him cuz she wants to be queen. Emperor at first thinks the dragon guy assaulted her and that was why contraceptives were found, because he hasn't slept with her, but now he's threatening her with that sort of intent. I left off with ML falling into the emperor's trap and the FL being manhandled by the emperor because she's worried about the ML. Sea monster vs dragon time. The initial translations were okay. They started going downhill. Still readable but I think the story is a bit taxing now. It reminds me a lot of Jennifer Armentrout blood and Ash series with the writing. There's so many set ups for sex and assault scenes too, but no follow through. There was even an entire chapter that must have been missing because the chapter ended with them about to fuck and then the next started with her being held captive by some lady in a cellar. The story misses frames sometimes, but that was just confusing. I have a feeling this is one of those where the author has a patreon for indecent chapters but who knows. What the comic has going for it is art. Specifically with male characters being extremely attractive. Female characters are also attractive, but almost all border on being "cute" or "infantile" sorts of characters. The story is okay...in pieces. I would honestly rather it actually be a Josei or smut comic since it seems likenit was intentionally written that way.
My Mom Entered a Contract Marriage
Super wholesome! FL is an 8 year old girl whose mother is a former noble who married a man who ran off with all their money and left them destitute. FL works every single day and her mother becomes a drunkard and occasionally beats her. She still loves her mom and thinks she is like a goddess among humans because she is so pretty. She forgives her for everything because "she's going through alot". Her mom even tells her that she would have been better off if FL was dead. Then suddenly one day, FL's mom wakes up in a panic and her whole demeanor changes. She hugs and shows a ton of affection for her daughter suddenly. She thinks the alcohol finally made her mom crazy. But really her mom traveled back in time after being killed in the future. FL still doesn't know that. Her mom says she needs to meet the emperor and needs the hidden money our FL has been saving for rent. When FL refuses she pretends to be okay with it but then steals the money and disappears. After working that day, mad for the first time at her mom, FL is approached by a coach and a guard. They manipulate her by saying her mom is sick so she can go to the palace with them. Her mom ended up signing a contract marriage agreement with the emperor and now she is a princess. The contract is only until the crown prince, the emperor's nephew, comes of age and can take the throne. Meanwhile our FL wins the hearts of literally everyone. Took the crown prince a sec and he stood her up at a tea party, but now he's a protective older brother. She seems to have a 6th sense for danger and senses when someone has really bad intentions or when something really bad may happen. She meets the son of the family that is pretty much the princes enemy and has been attempting to assassinate him, and has a crush on him. The maid girl is descended from a family of crows and is my favorite. The crown prince misunderstood the emperor this whole time because he thought that was who was trying to kill him. But our FL and her mom are stirring things up and fixing relationships. FLs mom and the emperor seem to be....ahem...having a lot of meetings and getting bullied quite often. Hahaha. I love how this is seen through the naive eyes of a child and how much comedy that brings knowing what she is oblivious to. Anyways, just left off with the fjord kid and crown prince coming face to face and the FL breaking up the fight and forcing Fjord to let her treat his injury from where the prince punched him. I love this. I wasn't sure that ai would from the start, but it is such a refreshing take following the kid of the person who was reincarnated and in a contract marriage rather than the person themselves. FL is so oblivious in the most wholesome of ways. Honestly, I can finally give another 5/5*
Sica Wolf Webtoon
Completed story. FL was abandoned by fam for being a monster. She now is a sorcerer for the ice tower and is looking for jobs as a mercenary because she is broke. Just when they are about to sign her up, a blue haired man who looks like the man who rescued her after she was hunted down 20 years ago and brought her to the mages tower (aka her first love) comes and asks for her help with a job with demonic beasts. She agrees, and they go on a journey together. He's super conceited but in a cute way and she's just adorable and sweet and naive. This story is set in the same place as the one about the knight that I read Sigrid, and those characters show up from time to time. This author is pretty good about character development and healthy relationships (in comparison to other webtoons). I think the art was cute, and the story was pretty cute too, though the end took a bit too long to resolve itself and the whole planning period for the big end battle took too many chapters. Overall 4.8/5
Lady Baby
FL is reincarnated into a babbbby, hence the name I guess. Prior to reincarnating, her father was killed, and while investigating her brothers were killed. Then her mother fell sick but died because public opinion had been turned against her family and no one would help. After her mom's death a war started and people died outside of her house. She and a trusted knight buried the 2 dead people and she sang a folk song for them (a folk song here seems to just mean any song that is not a hymn. Folk songs are banned by the temple and so singing one was basically blasphemy, however a strange girl shows up and gives her a "gift " and asks her to song for them again. That gift was the reincarnation...and the ability to do something with mana or magic or ether...I dunno... with her singing. Anyways, her first words were literally a few sentences to her family about how grateful she is for them and for being born. They just consider her ultra intelligent, but she's just determined to change events so that no one she cares for dies. Most of the story so far she is a child, she ends up beloved by everyone, somehow ends up with a salon that happens to be where the next event of the magic power stuff will take place, has lots of people adore her...especially the young duke who seemingly remembers his past life and thus kept his distance from her to keep her safe most of the story. She wants to destroy the temples power so she uses her idolhood to sing folk songs and popularize then until the temple can't ban them. The emperor has been using that temple to control the nobility and he's all mad. Also he promised to abdicate the throne to his nephew, the young Duke, when He came of age since it was supposed to be his from the start but he is scheming ways to keep it. FL and he are in love, yay, and finally admitted to it just before the chapters I caught up to. This story is good, the art is cute and very good. I think the childhood portion was so long that the singing part seemed to come out of left field. There are also some parts where the translation made it difficult to understand what was actually going on. They're still only like 15 years old, I think. 4.8/5 ️
The Lady's Butler
FL is a normal office worker who is sucked into the world of her favorite novel as the main character. Her fave character who she loves is the butler serving her. Completed story. 4.8/5
The Princess in the Dumpster
Lowered the rating because a parental like figure is now the love interest. I hate that. FL's mom died after giving birth to her, and she's been living alone in an abandoned run down castle alone ish ever since. Her mom was a certain race who exists on memory alone. Also their race dies if they have a child with any other race. So, somehow, when she died, the woman and her child were forgotten completely. That child is the emperor's youngest daughter. She lived like a wild animal, with a snake, cat, and dragon for friends. Also, a winter spirit had watched over her all along. She was blessed with jewel eyes that allow her to see the colors of people's emotions and also see the future to some extent such as black splotches on someone's arm when they are about to be injured there. There are 3 other jewel eye types and those kids were all used and abused for their abilities. When the emperor's other kids stumble upon her, as does a knight, the emperor approaches her and feels immediate fondness for her and knows she is his daughter. She, like a stray cat, does not warm up quickly to him or anyone else. Right now, I am at the end of season 2 where her demon friend joins her as she leaves/is kidnapped by the moon god who wants to destroy all of humanity. Okay now we've time jumped. And I'm really reallllllly worried that all these hints are that the spirit who raised her, literally from infancy, is the love interest. I hope not. But they are hinting at it. Spoiler alert: he is. I hate it. So tempted to drop it. This story is cute and wholesome for the most part. I like how the author did not make her immediately trust her family and still has her dealing with the struggles of relying on others due to her childhood trauma. The art is only okay. Still, I found myself looking forward to more chapters so 4.8/5 ️
