The beginning after the end
P: King Grey has unrivaled strength, wealth, and prestige in a world governed by martial ability. However, solitude lingers closely behind those with great power. Beneath the glamorous exterior of a powerful king lurks the shell of man, devoid of purpose and will. Reincarnated into a new world filled with magic and monsters, the king has a second chance to relive his life. Correcting the mistakes of his past will not be his only challenge, however. Underneath the peace and prosperity of the new world is an undercurrent threatening to destroy everything he has worked for, questioning his role and reason for being born again. O: This is AMAZING!!! Really interesting. The art is so nice to look at and the story is awesome. So sad when Sylvia disappeared, she was such an amazing dragon. :( Also happy/sad when Art saw his dad and mum again through that special magic. Lol Sylvie and Tess are so adorable! Can't help but like Virion too. Everyone is awesome! Nice colour schemes. Ew Lucas is utter trash. C101 - Oml that kiss btwn Tess and Art is so cringe... I literally died inside. C119 - omg... no way wtf... TT I didn't really pay attention to her in the story but holy sht... C136 - yo wtf... this is so horrible... f/163 dropped because this got confusing and boring, seeing Arthur get agitated over the fake Tessa just sealed the deal for me. 5-->3
La Dolce Vita di Adelaide
P: Was I reborn? In my previous life I was a designer who had just graduated but one day I had an accident. Adelaide, that's my new name. My new life feels very boring, but then I heard news that there is a girl who can move between dimensions so I decided to go to the capital to meet her. Is there something waiting for me in the capital? O: This is so good. So many snakes though. Eww that maid and Susan are truly a great match, they're so dumb. Lmao Susan expects the title of Saint but doesn't want to do the duties linked to it? B*tch. The villains here are so bad... but this is entertaining nonetheless. I don't really like Adele after C60, she used to be smart but not anymore... how can she not tell that the duke truly loves her?? Is she just playing with Yulia or what?? Ah she's just testing the duke, to make him realise his feelings. Still it makes me uncomfortable - she's just manipulating him...
Suddenly Became a Princess One Day
P: When I opened my eyes I had become a princess! But out of all characters in this romance novel, why is it the princess who has the fate of dying to her own blood-related dad, the emperor! O: So good. I don't know whether to ship her with Ijekiel or Lucas. The former is nice, but kinda suspicious because his dad (Whitey) is super dodgy/calculative. Also I question Jeanette, she seems genuinely nice, but I can't bring myself to like her. C46 - So sad how Claude forgot about Athanasia after helping her :( It really hurts... Especially how he can't recognise all his efforts to cater and treasure Anasthasia. His reaction when he saw the portrait of him and her. In the past he clearly didn't plan on having a portrait done of himself. It seems that Athy really helped soften Claude. My heart breaks for both Claude and Athy. Blackie is so cute! Omfg didn't expect those blue lotuses to be tentacle monsters x.x So sad how Claude feels pain/uncomfortable whenever he sees/thinks about Athy :( Poor Athy, she didn't do anything to deserve this. C69 OML Lucas is back!! Holy sh*t apparently Claude is dying, and doesn't just have insomnia. I feel like the black Claude is using Jeanette to curse him. C70 OMG Athy is in her 3rd life?! Conjecture:(1st hanged as Athy, 2nd live in modern life and overdose on pills, 3rd reversed time into 1st life again)
The Duchess' 50 Tea Recipes
P: When I opened my eyes I had become the duchess. But something isn’t right. I went as far as becoming a character but I’m just a duchess in name that gets mistreated by the maids and ignored by her husband. What a crappy life! Gosh, I don’t know what to do anymore. I’ll just quietly enjoy my tea, was what I thought. “Can you prepare tea for me again next time?” Something’s gone wrong with my cold husband! O: This is very interesting! It's so disgusting to see how they previously treated Chloe. But tbh the orig Chloe wasn't good - timid af and doesn't take the blame for her mistakes. C31 Damn, Alphonse's past was saddening. The body proportions are kinda bothering me - Chloe's torso is way too skinny. Again I don't really like this Mary Sue bs... f/102
The Justice of Villainous Woman
P: The day I lost my boyfriend to my best friend, I fell into the Han River by mistake. And when I woke up, I became a famous duke's daughter named Chartiana Altizer Cailon - who's known as the villain!? "I've already chosen my empress, and you're just pawn." "I will be the empress of the Empire." My fate was also determined the moment I was appointed as the next empress candidate by Regina. Regina has two candidates, Irene, who is the lover of the Crown Prince and me, Chartiana. To protect my beloved family from the court's evil schemes, I cannot help but become the evil villain and win the position of Empress. To be happy with the people I love, I became the antagonist. O: This is amazing. Obviously there are plotholes e.g. Satiana (Chartiana) not bringing the emergency bracelet on her trip intentionally even though the West isn't totally safe, how Satiana didn't suspect the 2 short-haired ladies in waiting to be spies (even though it's very obvious that they're insignificant background characters). It's awesome to see Satiana kick Irene's ass. Lol, good thing she isn't that smart. It's nice to see the crown prince's (Leofred) gradual change of attitude towards her. It's interesting how he blushed sometimes when he was with her, e.g. when they met each other in the library. Does he actually secretly like her? I think I remember him asking Kayledin about his experience at the party. I wonder if Kayledin (Cailedin) is in love with her? So many questions. Love the MC. She's sick. She clearly can stand up for herself and scheme, and she's also smart and beautiful. Didn't expect Leofred to be so... forward in C82. C84-86 were very interesting, how we could see Leofred's perspective and thoughts. 5 --> 4 Kinda lost interest later, partially because of the shit translation quality.
The Reason Why Raeliana Ended up at the Duke's Mansion
P: Reinhardt: Raeliana knew she was going to die young the second time after being transferred to another world (novel world). Now she is trying to escape from her own death by getting involved with the Duke who is a scheming person. She provides informations from original novel and make a deal with the Duke. A thrilling love story between side character and actual male protagonist in the novel?? O: This is very intriguing. I like the slow love development between Noal and Raeliana. Seems a bit odd how the red-haired girl was brushed off. So funny how the pope considers himself the grandfather of Raeliana. He looks nice as an adult. Nice art. I wonder what's the deal with Beatrice (blonde). What is she planning? Why was she seen with the red-haired lady? I like Noah x Raeliana, but I also don't mind too much Justin x Raeliana, although it most likely won't be a thing. OH SHIT Beatrice is probably another transmigrator, wanting things to go along to the original plot line. Or Beatrice could be the previous Raeliana... Raeliana is truly a strong female lead! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ She seriously OWNS that title. C108 Raeliana confesses to Noah about how she was from another world. I love how Raeliana takes charge, she never fails to impress me. Raeliana and Noah have such an awesome relationship. C141 - I can't believe how Raeliana just shot Beatrice just because the black mage said that it was fated that either one of them would die. What a badass. C155 - fk... my heart hurts for Justin ;-; Ahhhh can't believe this has finally finished... it's been a long ride!
Koushaku Reijou no Tashinami
P: CrystalAris: This girl died and ended up in another story as a 'villain' but she's not really villainous she's more lady like and with her knowledge of our modern day society she plans to improve her Fief. O: This is awesome. The art is nice. Sometimes it can get boring, but it's interesting to learn about taxes and stuff. Yuri and Ed and their friends are disgusting af. They're so oblivious and spoilt. Ed literally is shit, he can't argue for his life, so he just screams to try and make up for this incompetency. Yuri is so oblivious, and doesn't consider the harms of what she is doing. I'm glad how Bern changed after seeing what Iris has done for the Azuta conglomerate. The thoughts from the translating team are very fun and relatable to read. I can't believe that Dean is the 1st prince. It's a bit annoying/unsettling that most stuff seems to go well for Iris (she's like a Mary Sue)- she just takes ideas/products from Earth and implements them into this world. How does she even have all this knowledge to do so e.g. making chocolate? She's basically the equivalent of male MC's in fantasy novels. However, after the huge inconvenience with the church, this is no longer the case. It's so satisfying to see the Pope and the 2nd queen Ellia get rekt so hard. The cover doesn't do this manga justice imo.
The Villiainess Is Adored by the Crown Prince of the Neighboring Kingdom
P: Tiararose was supposed to be disengaged and exiled from the country. “This was the Otome game I had played!” She realized on the day before the story’s ending??……. Shall I wait for the judgment? But, I did not do anything too cruel……. Thinking so, the ending continues. But, during the judgement??something that was not possible in the game happened. The neighboring crown prince courted the villainous daughter Tiararose. O: Again a bit cliche, but none-the-less still a good read. So cute and nice art! The original otome game MC Akira is such a bitch. Is she another person who reincarnated into this world and previously knew about how this was a game? She mentioned once about how things aren't going according to the game. Yeah she is. She fangirled over Aqua in C11, and for a second I thought she was friendly, but NO. She planned on putting Tiara into a coma using lightning power like WTF?! Tiararose doesn't deserve to be called a villainess. It's not her fault that she's protective of her fiancé Hartknight and lectures Akira for her impudence. She didn't do anything especially bad towards Akira in the past to warrant being banished by Hartknight. Thank god Aquasteed came in and saved the day. Aquasteed and Tiararose are so adorable together, it really warms my heart whenever they are around each other :') It's nice to see how Hartknight realised that he erred, but I don't really want to see him again. I especially don't want to see that bitch Akira again, but I KNOW for certain she will come and ruin their relationship. Let her go - Passenger, really suits Hartknight, only realising he loves her after rejecting her -_- Aqua is such a sweet guy ;-; Ok later on Akari wasn't too bad, she cheered Tiara on to win against the sequel's heroine.
The Villainess Want to Marry a Commoner!!
P: Love Interests? More like NOT interested! Gimme that cute commoner NPC! After reincarnating, I found myself as the Villainess in an Otome game I often played in my past life, the world of “Love?Magical”?! Although I reincarnated as the Villainess Isabella…having memories of my past life, if I let the scenario play out as it did in the game, I’d be going down the execution route…?! To free myself from the worst possible ending, my noble battle begins, however… Is it possible I could fall in love with the non-Love Interest character I loved so much in the past, can I really…?! Can this overly unusual Villainess rewrite the ruin route awaiting her?? O: This is interesting and cute... I wonder what's going to be the deal with Isabella being OP. Hopefully Ursch isn't a yandere. He is cute but also scary like OMG what's with his whip skills and him being able to blend in with the crowd and see Isabella? I hope he doesn't have ulterior motives. I can't wait until they grow up and become more charming. Seems like they're both quite strong. The way Daemon, her brother, treats her is.... intense. Ah apparently in the novel, Ursch is yandere - but not necessarily in a nasty way - just possessive. Bruh apparently this is finished
