crispicheva's manga / #Josei(5)

this is the best fucking thing i’ve ever read, i love every single character and their dynamics are amazing and the women are incredible and the relationships are so wholesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS OKAY

storyline: gayeon is an office worker who, for some unknown reason, gets sent into a past/alternate reality?? there she is taken in by a noble and sees the emperor, xeros, for the first time, vowing to seduce him soon. gayeon later becomes one of the emperor’s concubines, which allows her to become very close to him, and their relationship deepens with time. however, a conspiracy is underway to overtake the emperor, and gayeon needs to do her best to keep herself and xeros safe from the jealous empress and the greedy prime-minister reaction: great art, beautiful characters, i have the BIGGEST crush on xeros deadass and yre deserved moreeee (i love him)

storyline: cheon doona is a bdsm enthusiast who gets involved with her brother’s best friend, haesol... the thing is that doona is still, unfortunately, very emotionally unavailable because of her stupid ex, byun minho!!! many interesting side characters and great smut reaction: BRO THIS WAS SO GOOD????? i loved the entire dynamic of the numerous relationships between the characters... i’m so happy byun minho is getting what he deserves, he’s a piece of shittttt also wookyung is ridiculously hot?? my lord... i’m so glad doona and haesol are happy together, they deserve the world

storyline: our main character wakes up inside eris miserian's body, the villainess in the book the mc is reading. she must find a way to return to her world, but the plot seems to ask her... to die. review: this was amazing!?? the art is incredible, the characters were well explored, and the focus on eris's mission as the key part of the narrative, unchanged and unfazed, is a welcome deviation from my initial assumption that this would be a story moved by romance. the fact that all of them were "cursed" in the end just makes it even more vindicating for the main character. also can god please send a man like anakhin my way PLEASE

storyline: eun sian is a college girl with a phobia of men. can't be near them, talk to them, or even hold eye contact with them. a fellow college student, chae yuri, approaches her and confesses her feelings for sian, and, although sian doesn't return them, yuri sticks close to her at all times from then on. close enough to be by her side when sian gets harrassed by a drunk older man, and saved by a gorgeous blond man who turns out to be her coworker at her new part-time job. review: lorrrddd NEVER in a millions years would i have expected this story to take this path... yul, my guy, you're definitely committed but you need to BE committed to a mental hospital. what the fuck. thank god for yujin, poor sian deserved a happy ending!!
