Where do I begin. This manga was AMAZING. The storyline was fantastic and fresh. Ngl I'm a sucker for reincarnation stories done right. And this one was done spectacularly. The female lead was strong and smart but also vulnerable without being whiny or annoying, I absolutely enjoyed her personality. She has to be my favourite manga female lead. Unfortunately, I was spoiled on who her future love interest would be which made me wish that they had more interactions before she found out it was him. But I did enjoy the little interactions they had with each other- chapter 13 really was my favourite chapter especially the confession scene. Also defo wish there was more chapters exploring their relationship after the got together. Would have been nice to explore what life would be like dating someone whose previous reincarnations you had meet before.

Nah man, this was just beautiful. The whole reincarnation concept was handled beautifully- it was a little bittersweet but I really enjoyed this. And the ending was so wholesome and lovely. Honestly I'm loving this mangaka's stories and art style.

The story was solid- like a fairytale. The art and colouring was very beautiful. Enjoyed.

It was cute. And even though it was short, it feels complete.

This was so good! The uke was so funny and relatable especially in the first chapter. However, I do wish that it had more chapters to develop their relationship a bit more as their relationship did feel a little rushed especially between chapters 3+4. Would have liked to see more of their lovey doveyness either inbetween chapters or after the final chapter. Also would love a 2nd volume exploring their new romantic relationship.

Not bad. It was a good read and at times, funny. The pacing and storyline was also good. Just wished the ending was more satisfying for me. The historical setting was also a pleasant read. Agree with the comment below: "Ryuuji’s decision to not to speak up about the assault for fear of being kicked out and having nowhere to go and blaming himself for taking a position that he felt wasn’t meant for him were so poignant. In this dog-eat-dog world, you really just gotta grab every opportunity you can to survive. Tbh, there will always be someone better than you but when the opportunity presents itself, you just gotta hold on to it and give it your all. You have the right to survive too."

Ngl it was cute especially the extra chapters related to their kids. However, the translation was poor in some places especially near the end making it difficult to understand what was happening. Also the story's pacing was off- it felt rushed. And I really wanted to see the development/story of the secretary and cousin. Re-read and still enjoyed, though it was a little rushed. Still waiting for a spin off for the cousin and secretary. Chapter 43. Are those the cast of the manhwa called A dead crow's stare? They look so similar to them and the black haired guy's name is also Jinwoo

?104.5 Really, really enjoyed this. Like really. The ML was great and good looking, so was the FL. And the plot was super good, wasn’t expecting it. Haven’t read a manhwa that I’ve enjoyed since Light and Shadow. Yay! Side stories have finally started. Very excited! Decided to wait for the side stories to finish before reading them. May even re-read the manhwa for a better understanding of the story Chp 92

This story was really good. I really enjoyed it though it did feel like it was a little long (maybe because I knew the spoilers). Also I enjoyed the bickering between the 2 mls but Noah’s personality occasionally annoyed me, especially near the end. Edit: screaming because an anime about this story is going to be released in 2023. I’m so excited

The Monster Duchess and Contract Princess

Ongoing | Rialan,Minjack | 2019 released

Ending is 150 which I’ve read on another website but stopped at 145 and waiting to bato to translate the remaining 5 chapters. Finally completed on bato which is where I finished the story. Review also on bato: Not even sure why I decided to read it but glad that I did. This was such a good and well written story. I tremendously enjoyed it. Where do I begin, Conrad the ML was divine. As I was reading the story I was trying to pinpoint why and even now, weeks after reading this he has left a lasting impression. And I think it’s because of his gentle nature, there is no arrogance or rudeness from him but simply kindness and understanding. The love story between him and the FL was amazing to read. And the family dynamic, oh the family dynamic was so lovely to read. Everything of this story was exquisite. My only grip is that we didn’t get to see the FL use her powers more or see her continue to do her training both physical and swordsmanship. Oh well.
