axima's manga / #Manhua/Manhwa(359)

Not bad but pretty forgettable.

It's kinda fucked up but they're both toxic so it works. I have a soft spot for codependency.

I like the MC in this one. Mature and intelligent. There isn't much romance so far but if you enjoy the political drama it's good.

Honestly very clumsy but it feels like the author cared and I've been desperate for a hero X demon story. Just prepare to overlook some plot holes and overall jank if you're planning to read.

Kept getting close to becoming good and just didn't. I like how gradual ML's progress is (mostly, near the end there's a massive jump that's never explained) and his personality is great. Honestly I hate all the side characters even the ones that are supposed to be good. The ending doesn't make that much sense either ngl. FL actually having sympathy for ML instead of only caring about herself is refreshing considering this is still another case of "I have to make money and run away" syndrome. Her being reincarnated barely matters it's just an excuse for why she wants to run away and the scene where she changes her mind isn't nearly good enough to justify it.

A breath of fresh air. FL is charismatic and endlessly optimistic and her goal is... To have a good love life with ML. No running away, no revenge, she just wants to bone her man. ML is pretty cute, he's nice and neither too serious or too much of a slacker. He wants to take care of his people without doing it at the cost of his personal life. The plot is a bit ridiculous when you start questioning how the old priestess is getting away with all this but it generally works well enough.

Pretty mid but it's kinda cute NGL. If you can turn your brain off it's a decent way to spend an afternoon.

I do wish MC was a little cooler but I guess it's fine since he's doing well? I like the drama between contestants and Ian is cute.

Hovered between 3 and 4 stars. The ideas are there but execution leaves some to be desired. Like the ramifications of that time skip barely have time to sink in before we return to status quo, same with the beastmen getting kicked out. FL is also of the passive variety, which is a shame because she really has her moments like the motivation to help Lucien and when she got angry at the prince. At least she's otherwise an interesting character, her abandonment issues stemming from her past get some development. It's nice to have an FL that's not obsessed with not changing the story. ML is kind of a red flag but he does seem to realize his wrongs even if that scene was a little clumsy.

Love how they mixed regression with guide verse and how much more grounded it is compared to normal. You see them deal with the fallout of natural disasters, bombs, heck possibly war. MC is interesting, he really was a "villain" in his past life and now he wants to do better because as he was dying he realized that his actions never got him what he wanted and just made everybody more miserable. So he decides to spend his second life atoning by preventing major tragedies and doing what he can to make his love happy even if he knows it's unrequited.
