The Reason Why Raeliana Ended up at the Duke's Mansion

Complete | Milcha,Golae | 2000 released

Turns out this is incredible. I was annoyed because they took forever to start dating but it was well worth the wait. The girl has a brain and for once tries to do something when in problematic situations. The male lead is also exceptionally lovable. Most importantly, they talk about the fact that our protagonist doesn't own her body. Although it's not the main focus, some of the comedy is great too. Let's not forget the gorgeous art (the guys are a real feast for my thirsty eyes).

Doctor Elise

Complete | Mini,Yuin | 2000 released

I'm not really digging most of the medical parts, and some of mc's personal decisions if I'm being honest. At least they're not stingy with the pda once the main couple (finally) becomes an item.

The Duchess with an Empty Soul

Ongoing | Han jin-seo,Jin se-ha | 2019 released

To be honest, the scanlator drama and reveal of her fiance being gay were just as good as the actual plot. I like the protagonist not being useless. There isn't really enough relationship development for me to say much about the romance. In this case you either like the story or you give up, because there's nothing else that could carry the series. EDIT: most of this is moot by now, they're dating now and it's pretty cute. They've gone down the same path as most other stories and started bringing up prejudice against women. Call me sexist but I've seen this same thing play out so many times I just want to move on. I'm not here for a moral lesson on how bad x group had it in y time.

Bloody Sweet

Complete | Lee Narae | 2000 released

It's so good I bought the physical books.

La Dolce Vita di Adelaide

Complete | Chae habin,Suho, kim bomi | 2000 released

If I'm being honest, the way they handled the romance could have been better. There's also the weird page layout and mc being reincarnated that was hardly even mentioned after the start. Overall the whole mind game/betrayal thing was the best part. The characters have a reverse of the problem that plagues shoujo, the FL is the one that gets all the personality while ML is just a surface level shy guy. The ending kinda sucked but I'd say it's down to personal preference if you like it or not.

The Girl and the Geek

Complete | Huryunhwa,Dagab | 2000 released

I'm not really a fan of sex and kids in my romances, but pretty much everything here is excellent otherwise. The pacing, progression in the relationship, characters, comedy, it's really got it all. And they don't drag things out for no reason!

Revenge Wedding

Ongoing | Saryong | 2019 released

Can't wait to see where they take this set up.

Emperor, Stay Here, Your Knight's Getting Off Work

Ongoing | Chanduck | 2019 released

GIVE ME MORE Edit: It's still pretty good but some parts could be improved.

Our Companionship

Complete | ken,ant studio | 2019 released

I'm glad someone finally picked this up again, it looks really promising! EDIT: Forgot to say I dropped it, don't remember why, probably boredom.

The Villainess Lives Twice

Ongoing | 피치베리,헌민트 | 2019 released

MC with a brain! And not just any brain, she's actually somewhat of a genius at scheming. The guy isn't some cold jerk (not that I don't like them but it's nice to have someone kind sometimes). Idk wtf is going to happen to the updates though. Trying to read the updates from the previous scanlators is basically impossible and the person who uploaded the last chapter said they're not doing it again. EDIT: So apparently I loved this? Lmfao can't remember a thing I'd have to reread it all to see. I thought this was borderline garbage and that's why I haven't touched it in so long.
