The Lady's Butler

Ongoing | 하예지 (ha yeji),첨지 (chomji) | 2019 released

I LOVE YOU LANCELOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!! Ok, now seriously, I think this series is great. I started off annoyed that as usual the main couple refused to just be honest with each other. This ended up not being a big deal because they've already gotten together this early on. Granted the FL hasn't told the ML that she isn't the real Charlotte. You may wonder how this could be anything other than toxic when FL is basically an impostor that took the place of the one the ML actually loves, but trust me this makes perfect sense with context. I usually spoil some things in my reviews but in this case basically everything good about this is in heavy spoiler territory so I'll hold back. In a way it reminds me of Raelina which was one of my favourites. There is one very questionable hinge that the entire plot depends on, which may or may not make sense in the future. In vague terms I can't tell why the "villain" doesn't ignore FL because they already have what they want (more or less). For now it just seems like they say they don't care while they're actively being a snoopy lil bitch and will probably try to destroy everything later out of an inferiority complex or something. EDIT: Suicide was invented as a result of the cliffhanger on ch86.

The Tyrant Husband Has Changed

Ongoing | 란테시아스 | 2019 released

I mean, they really fly right by the thing that usually takes like 80 chapters in manhwa like this. And by that of course I mean the whole reincarnation reveal and romance build up. Oddly enough I like it this way. It's annoying when couples take ages to get anywhere and won't be honest for seemingly no reason. What makes this stand out more though is that it's actually not as serious as it looks. At least so far it's just been two idiots being cute with a dash of plot to spice things up here and there. EDIT: It's really gone down in quality... EDIT 2: Dropped I can't be bothered

The Lady I Served Became a Young Master

Ongoing | Sigma,TabbyStar | 2019 released

Bro I want him to look like a man. It's really awkward watching shoujo esque moments looking like yuri even if the FL just treats him as a friend.

Settia

Complete | Kim Reunel | 2000 released

It feels rushed. I'm a whore for angst so I enjoyed this but it's pretty easy to hate Eunil if you don't. The ending is happy though. I think this would've been a lot better with an extra 10 chapters to spread out the second half of the story.

The Magic Soup

Complete | Tropicalarmpit,Kim peacock | 2019 released

It feels like a fairytale for adults. If you're looking for some BL action this isn't the place. It's pretty interesting though.

Your Majesty, Please Don't Kill Me Again

Ongoing | 혜용 / 에클레어,하연 | 2019 released

This rating isn't for a romance, but borderline psychological. The FL is traumatized by this mf that killed her entire family for no reason. Still, she sucks up to the ML so that the same thing doesn't happen again. The problems are the small glimpses of humanity she can see in the child version of ML. I'll be honest here, just like her I haven't forgiven him, so I'm interested in how this will go with no shipping involved. I'll be truly surprised if they can pull of a successful redemption arc.

Trapped in a Webnovel as a Good for Nothing

Ongoing | So yu-hyun,Alg | 2019 released

A cross between omniscient readers viewpoint and solo leveling. Granted, I'm not sure if it'll reach that level, but I'm having plenty fun to justify giving it 5 stars. The one thing I do see a problem with is that the gods don't need to exist in this plot. Don't expect anything super original though, the closest it gets is by setting up mc's own family as the antagonists and having him be loaded. EDIT: The gayest non-BL I've ever read, can you make it canon please? Is it still even baiting if it's to this extent?

Solo Spell Caster

Ongoing | Cheongcho,Minchoba | 2000 released

So far the variety of spells is underwhelming, but otherwise a pretty good read. EDIT: He uses more than the shield and magic bullets now.

Everything was a Mistake

Ongoing | Guan,Mimba | 2020 released

A lot of people have a problem with the romance here. I was one of those people. At least until that one chapter where Nocton goes from an evil creep to a misunderstood loner. Don't get me wrong, he should have gone around killing everyone he sees, but somehow Duroa changed that. It just doesn't look like it for a good 15 chapters. I have no clue how any of this could reasonably get resolved though so I'm mostly staying to see the mental gymnastics required to fix their relationship. Knowing these shoujo manhwa it'll probably make sense too. EDIT: Dropped. This shit is still going? Ffs Duroa is a total bitch. Get over yourself and hear the poor guy out already! At this point Nocton would be better off forgetting her.

July Found by Chance

Complete | Muryu | 2000 released

It was a 5 star until like the last 5-10 chapters. After that it got kinda confusing and the ending while being happy, doesn't get enough of an explanation to be sure that it's going to stay that way. Number 13 is absolutely adorable, and so is his relationship with Danoh. The story (before it gets weird) is irresistible. I liked the characters as well. The main drawbacks are that I believe it started rushing near the end and one of the chapters on mangago is uploaded wrong, so we're probably missing a key part of the story that helped make sense of everything. Oh yeah there were maybe 5 instances of some top notch comedy thrown in, and somehow they fit perfectly even though this is a drama.
