Lauvil's manga / #Isekai(195)

73

I'm kinda bored with this story. The premise seemed promising and in the beginning I found the discord between the leads to be interesting. But at this point it's gotten kinda boring. The misunderstand keeps growing and I don't see where it's going. Plus the translation of the latest chapters is really bad. So I'm dropping this for now...

Reincarnated into a novel she read in Korea, Amelia gets drunk one night and happens to have a one-night-stand with the male lead. Or, she planned on it being just a one-night-stand... But the duke has other plans. For in the span of just one night, he became enamoured and obsessed with Amelia and now does everything in his power to bind her to him - whether she wants it or not. Because clearly, Amelia doesn't want to date the Duke. He's the male lead with a destined partner, and there is nooooo way that her actions could ever change the course of the story, right? Don't mind the fact that her actions has already changed a whole lot. It doesn't count. No, sir. I hope something more interesting will happen soon. This whole "push and pull" between the Amelia and Killin is already getting kind of old and the MC's conviction that he's going to fall for the female lead no matter what, is so cliché and annoying...

The art style is pretty, but that's about the extent of the compliments I can give this Webtoon. Unnecessary reincarnatation, an ML with mysogonistic vibes, one dimensional female side characters, boring FL, basic and predictable plot. Even the circumstances behind their engagement is stupid and unrealistic. The Emperor sent her a marriage proposal despite having just been told that she didn't want to be married. It's a proposal she can't say no to, so she'll end up having to marry him, regardless of what she wants. But she'll end up falling in love with him anyway, so the Emperor won't ever need to apologise for his forceful and inconsiderate actions. Yeah, no thanks to this one.

Oh god, I just can't. This story is so stupid. Not only does it include my most hated trope - the one where mc reincarnates into a fat girl, then looses weight miraculously fast, and suddenly everyone notices how beautiful she is (cuz it's apparently common sense that you being chubby and being beautiful are mutually exclusive) - but the rest of the plot is so ridiculous and contradictory. Like, "I need a knight because I'm not strong enough to protect myself." - Proceeds to take out a bandit leader with one punch. And how is it that mc as someone who JUST reincarnated into this magical world, understands magic and mana better than the host she's occupying, who's lived in that world her entire life? How does that make Any sense whatsoever? There is no realism to the plot at all. Mc just reincarnated and is apparently now good at everything, the world offers her what she wants when she needs it and all the hardships that made her host kill herself at the age of 20, she can solve in one afternoon. In short: I don't feel like wasting time on this crap.
