Follow The Bread Crumbs
17 - oh, the nice evil witches of the fairies tales inhabit this land, where witches are hunted Being reborn as the gingerbread house witch, our MC luckily doesn’t look like baba yagga, she’s super cute, with a heart of gold, so she ends up saving Hansel and Gretel instead of trying to eat them … now we follow the runaway witch and the kids, escaping the hunters and a bunch of bad idiots There’s not much of a plot, it’s simply super cute, light and enjoyable
The Secret of the Friendly Duke
26 - interesting universe, with lots of creatures and mystery - the creatures are not too original, but the whole thing could be :)
Marquis, Leave Me Alone!
26 - spunky runaway girl from a brothel try sto scam her way in the mansion of a noble man - she’s hardly a suitable bride candidate, so if romance starts to bloom, it will be a painful trip It’s a bit fun so far The difference in social classes is as repulsive as ever (she’s a slave since she was trafiqued as a child - nothing nice about it)
Éminence Grise Female Lead Is Trying to Make Me Her Stepmom
102 - a bit original, now the co-writer of a collective smut novel has to face the power of the dad of her victim ;D At least this premise is fun and cute, the pace is fast. And we’re not lost in and the author soon learn there are things she does not know about her own story ! Hence we have an ongoing enquiry to remember the names of the kids in order to find the future male lead and kindly prevent them from becoming sick harem leaders (!!!) (they are about eight years old right now) Lastly the little girl (she’s six, not three !! ) starts soon to behave like a master mind to aquire a new « mum » ! That’s both cute and hilarious The second half of the story enters romance for the MC, there’s a miserable second ML who’ll waste his heart fort her and be at the source of political intrigue It’s interesting, as the MC is a very capable and resourceful girl, her help to the « harem characters « families will come back at her in time of trouble, and that’s making the whole thing more cohesive, more complete But, at the same time, we’re far from the nice vibe of the beginning, we have authentic vilains and violence - not to mention the second ML who’s becoming heart breaking in his devotion
I Became the Tyrant's Secretary
98 - 4.5 - fun ! Secretary meets crazy emperor, it seems rather predictable in the long run, but not on the day to day action it’s rather fun, the art is nice, the pace is good, there one big flaw : i just want more !! Sight, now entering the time where everything that could be simple is going to become awfully complicated : how can they be so dense - let’s hope it doesn’t get longer ( duh, one season to get one out of two on page with his feelings !!, ah, but i still want more <3
The Makeup Queen
47 - same old, not great, and boderline boring The make up / home made cosmetic genius, is probably on of the most useless thing ever ! the MC is both interesting (great values), and boring (both op and useless, pea brain, never adapting the era, uselessly shy and prude, etc) The pace is slow and the story muddled and nonsensical, it also oscilates between cute and light angsty
The Symbiotic Relationship Between the Rabbit and the Black Panther
89.5 - 4.5 - fun andit’s super cut cute :you just got to love that rabbit ! https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/the-symbiotic-relationship-between-the-rabbit-and-the-black-panther.109029/
Taming the Lady
66 - not much brain cells are needed to read that, it’s cute and fluffy …until it’s not anymore, stories are best with kids? The ml is seriously grumpy, and the mc… is an absolute air head (borderline stupid ?) as the ml often mention The pace is good, it’s light and a bit funny (not too much) - seeing her stanning and embarrassing herself all the time is just bearable, but the art is really hard on the eyes The blond mage seems pitiful (duh love triangles sucks) The story takes a strange turn when the MC and her friends reach the age of the novel For once, the world seems to be really a « once upon a book » tale, so what’s going to happen il a character tries to change the plot like the MC did ? That’s seldom explored, and it makes for a different villain story as she was authentic in not being villainous and working hard to change her fate (she’s not a puppet or a supra brainy transmigrator) … The story then turns for a rather angsty path, but at least we can wonder about unexpected events and a possibility original story ?
Unromantic
Side 10 - well, it’s really nice to see such a self assured « female « boss ( I’m assuming omega can have baby, and be mothers, despite their physical gender, it’s actually female function for an earthian) It’s a « matriarchal « setting, but sadly you find a reverse version of prejudices (it’s not heavy on the matter Actually the « female « (omega) dominance might makes more sense as far as biology goes (? Pheromones wise ?) Thankfully there’s no bond nonsense either The mc is rather weak and dull, neither character have much depth, but it’s enjoyable, there’s not too much useless drama, and it’s feeling good Art wise it nice, but I might be disappointed the ml seems to become smaller and feminised as the story goes on ?
