Survive as the Hero's Wife
C87 - What a surprise, the characters are rich and multidimentionnal, there’s no real stupid vilain, and everyone has their reasons. It’s also surprisingly deep at places and the female characters are really not pale compared to the male (so rare !). Appart from few silly episodes, the plot is having good measure of mystery and tension, it’s certainly doesn’t feel very deep, but it’s enough to feel satisfied, the character developpement and interactions being way enough to fill the pages. If that was not enough, it’s also truly a feast for the eyes
Chitra Webtoon
177 - 4.5 - A bit silly in the beginning, it actually grow some wit, and has a lot to say about society politics hierarchy and values, it keeps entertaining after 100 chapters, and leaves you hanging with suspense quite often It would be hard to say about the « plot », because so far, we’re hoping from one mission to the next, while slowly building a harem ( ?) So far there’s nothing in matters of romance, but lot of humorous episodes due to the MC terrible views on pretty men (objects of fantasy, like women are usually depicted in shonen) So there’s a harem, but it’s ok : Because they all have a role to play, it’s not a collection of pleasure or breeding toys - they are much more than that She’s a strong, hard working and smart character, even if so far the most we see from her is pretty static (sitting and drinking tea) It’s entertaining fun, witty, Not entirely light, and yes, rather original The art can be really subpar C164 +166 - credit currency theory and practice
The Bestselling Empress Webtoon
38. - it’s a 3.5 (more on webcomics) reborn into an outcast empress, a mordern time accomplished girl becomes a writer to earn silver - her epics becomes best sellers and that’s it There’s little plot, not much character development, and not much story, so it’s a bit cute, and a bit foolish, it would be nice if it was not lacking substance to this extent
Villain Girl's Punishment Game
43 - silly and cute, nice pace too - ok might read so far
Virtues of the Villainess
77 - what would actually happen if one of the characters of the story had her future foretold ? It’s a very nice concept and a great beginning If it is not too long, it can be excellent ! ( lets hope it doesn’t uselessly drag) The mc is fun albeit a bit idiotic and conceited, and so far with seen a small cast, but it’s quite slow paced and the end is dragging
My Four Masters
- there is little to say, it’s mostly hysterical and non sensical but very cute The puzzling part is the MC is absolutely straight, without any clue about the master rooting for him : how can it lead to any HE ? But what the heck It’s nice that it’s no harem with the misleading title, it’s rather nonsensical but enjoyable and there’s a variety of characters with their own story, their own misunderstandings to clear up to reach their feelings It’s pretty, the pace is good and it’s an enjoyable light read with simple good feelings
Contract Concubine Webtoon
6 - 4.5 - surprisingly good - with just a little twist in the MC background, it manages to bring a common scenario to something quite mysterious and entertaining The characters are interesting, there’s a bitof plot (s?), the art is fine (the Mc does look boyish though) The romance part is what you could actually do without The most interesting part would be how two world don’t collide, parallel discussion that never meets and realities that simply diverge too much for any of them to reachan understanding Plot holes are probably many, but so far it holds between humour, and te raspy sour tint of the relationship
Queen of poison: The Legend of a Super Agent, Doctor and Princess
189 - The fun part is that the girl is actually not interested in the male around her, she’s not conform to the world powerful factors, yet she has her own talents (not too op), mostly she’s self reliant, witty and independent Nonetheless it’s getting painfully long, and we can expect the « happy couple »tribulations to go on for verrry long, with way too much trouble and pain ( typical of the two thousand chapters novels ?) Novel : https://www.novelupdates.com/series/poisoning-the-world-the-secret-service-mysterious-doctor-is-a-young-beastly-wife/ https://www.gufengmh8.com/manhua/dubutianxiategongshenyixiaoshoufei/ Let’s enjoy while it’s a bit fun, the novel summaries point toward a very long tragedy and torture filled story, at least the manhua is way faster, but we got the gist of the male characters and type of interactions :/
My Apprentice: Game over Again!
75 - extremely slow and poor, so very very light read, But what really bothers me is that the mc is also quite ridiculous : if she wants to save a potentially roten guy, at least she should watch over him to keep him from turning evil- in my book, it’s pretty half assed and it proves deadly too : doesn’t it make her an accomplice ?
