argo mint(^°^)'s manga / #Shoujo(5)

Typical as well, was really nice and simple story tho

A smooth, nice flowing story all throughout. I read this all the way beck in 2022 though so I dont really remember much

Wish it was longer, this is my most fave that I'll forever remember. I love the MC and ML, and even the side characters. Really wish it was longer

This was literally so sweet it had me kicking my feet every panel. I lovee how pure their love was and how their characters developed over time. The MC became more understanding of the MLs need to stick to tradition and grew to like that tradition as well as it is what kept them together. On the other hand, the ML became aware of how strong she was, and how much she loved him and was willing to sacrifice for him. I feel their love makes so much sense, the ML showed interest in her not just because of a stupid bookmark, but because he was intrigued by her consideration of a complete stranger, him. Because to him, even his grandfather and brother didn't care about hi that much, so how could a stranger like her? I loved them, also how his shoujo doesn't portray them as completely innocent from sexual matters and stuff, like bro, they're TEENS of course they know about that.

Pretty good if not for the whitewashing. Funny thing about this is the FL has dark skin, eyes, and hair bc she has the blessing of the Spirit King of Darkness, and for that she was ostracized but then later on she receives a light blessing making her skin WHITE. The backlash was so hard that it was reverted back just the next chapter after. But anyways, aside from that, this actually has good views on things. Like how they pointed out the fact that young girls should not be sent to fight in a war, unlike other mangas that normalize it. Also how Claudia didn't automatically just accept her parents apology, because yeah, apologies don't necessarily need to be accepted. Especially since Claudia herself had yet to recover from her trauma they caused. Would've liked to see a sequel with the OG Fl, on how she navigates the world after being released and what becomes of her.
