I've already read this manga, but haven't read the other related manga (just found out about them from MU). I'd love to read them some time later.

So, who will be Juliet? The favorite for the part, beautiful and vain Tsugumi, must compete with the cute new transfer student, Makoto Amano.

2024 Review: Read up to chapter 2. This seems to be in the Heian period, and no, I haven't read the raws. I find this story rather interesting to read. This is the classic gender bender masculine ML with bishounen features tropes who will become the FL's knight in shining armor whenever necessary. Power couple. Palace life isn't easy, after all. Other info: FL is 2 years older than ML. She's a merchant while the ML is a minister (not sure how accurate the translation is about him being a PM). Although they got married for political reasons i.e. a marriage of convenience, I expect them to progress in their romantic life and married life like a normal couple. -------------------------------------------------- 2020 - ?: 6V+

Captain Skulls is arrogant, violent, and a skirt chaser! And unfortunately for Armeria, he discovers she's a woman...
