Meridian's manga / #Shoujo(36)

DNF Chapter 14 Some cute moments from the ML and wonderful art but waaaay too much of the 'oh no, I couldn't possibly change anything from the original story' mindset. Like, do you view the people around you as human beings or dolls? Because OBVIOUSLY if you change how people grow up they're gonna act differently later on in life. The worst trope is when two people are so clearly in love but aren't together yet because MC can't convince themselves that the story isn't set in stone. For me, it's like the misunderstanding trope, an easy way to add conflict that's really just lazy writing. ★

Super cute and fluffy! The relationship between MC and ML starts right away and they have little to no conflict between them, all the plot progression comes from the antagonist (MC's mom). This was actually a Cinderella x Snow White retelling, but the sisters all get along instead. Nothing new in this story but definitely a warm and cozy read.

Pretty interesting background of this story. I love how MC wasn't the original character or a transmigrator, but instead someone who came to be after combining the memories of the two. Also, there was super great communication between the MC and ML, secrets and lies were revealed but are no match for being open about your feelings and talking them out! The climax of the author showing up was a little too deux ex-machina for me, kinda felt like it was cringe and made the whole thing fall a little flat.

Super cute with plenty of funny moments. I loved the side story with the ML's friend and how he turned out so twisted, only for it to mostly be from the push of the original author. The self-awareness of certain characters that their world was a novel, the blurred memories of the protagonist of her first life, and the lore behind the summoning method were all pretty unique points that I enjoyed.
