Alhena's manga / #Strong Female Lead(352)

the antagonist actually wasn't a bad person, but she was abandoned, wanted love, and overreacted during the process. if the female lead had only listened to what she wanted to say properly...she might not have become the antagonist at all. but because the female lead pushed her away, the true antagonist of the story was able to reach out to her and use her for her own. the female lead had all these assumptions about her "secret plans" when in reality, she was just a girl who felt alone, and thought that copying the female lead would get her love the same way others love the female lead. she's pitiful, but not a villainess, until she was discarded. dropped as of chapter 40

personally speaking, not my vibe, but it's nice to read a story with a yandere but also, a sensible female lead who recognizes the yandere's insanity and chooses to move away from it. she's a bit dumb for involving herself so much with him and i can clearly see moments where she could have diverted his attention, but i applaud her in the end. to be honest, even though i myself am a big fan of yandere romances, i can appreciate the reality that in real cases, the romance never has a good ending. so this book is a 3/5 for me. not a hit, but i appreciated and enjoyed the entire thing.

quite confusing, and a bit quick-paced. things aren't properly explained, and to be honest, i don't know if it will ever be, since the last update was...more than a decade ago.
