Hanayome Ni Naru Jouken

Complete | julia james, Kazuko Fujita | 2010 released

My rating: 7/10 It was a typical Cinderella story, quite cliché: a rich man falls for a pure and loving poor woman. But honestly, he was quite a jerk. He married her bc he deemed her pitful enough to anger his father and thus saw her as a tool. It's unrealistic how he changed so much so fast.
