1, don’t like how forceful the whole relationship is. The blackmail is what really irks me about the lack of consent, regardless of whether the seme eventually likes it. 2, art inconsistency. Uke is gorgeous, but the Seme had some ugly ass facial proportions.

Truck-kun strikes again and yet again, FL is thrust into a novel where she is the villainess. FL fights to survive and is pretty foul mouthed and rude despite speaking to nobility and royalty. Realistically, it’s not possible since she would’ve been punished and can’t possible be acting out so much but my yknow, this is a story and isn’t real. Ok I think I’ve held on long enough, this story is truly boring as fuck and I can’t take it anymore. Gonna drop this cause of how simple and non-interesting it is.

Dropped on 30th June 2021. Last read chapter 24. Started out alright but over time it just got so boring? Also for some reason the art style is getting on my nerves. Especially the faces. Anyway, I kinda detest the FL for her overly fangirl behaviour towards the ML who is a child and the FL is an isekai-ed woman who is so much older. Like it’s just so goddamn weird the more I think about it. Wasn’t this bothered but things change. Plot just gets so monotonous and boring after some time. It’s crazy how it’s only been 20+ chapters and I’ll losing my interest. Other stories are waaaaaay longer and I’m okay with it. This just shows how uninteresting and un-engaging this story truly is. Bleh.

Okay so I’m pretty sure this is not a story that involves isekai. FL is an abused maid who has lost her memories and ML is the current emperor known for this murderous and violent tendencies. ML has been searching for ages for a woman across the land and finally he found the FL and takes her back to the palace. Here’s where things get complicated, so ML apparently has a craving for blood and essentially turns into a vampire(though it is not specifically named in the story) whenever he falls asleep. FL stumbles across the ML is vampire mode and gets bitten. It is revealed that FL resembles (duh, she must be the woman the ML is looking for) the woman called Tianna/Diana, a high priestess who was an immortal that needed the blood of human as to sustain her existence. Tianna is the ML’s first love, and the one who caused ML to be afflicted with vampirism by exchanging blood in a sense? DNF @ Chapter 54 The chapters have been on flashback mode for awhile now and honestly it’s boring. The story between what happened with the ML and Tianna is sad but not interesting enough for me to keep going.

FL gains notoriety after being found out as the author behind the scandalous MM fanfic of the dethroned Crown Price of terrifying reputation. All of a sudden ML finds himself attracting swarms of fans??? Crazy turn of events, FL is taken and tasked with changing the opinions of the public with her writing success from the embarrassing fanfic. Slowly FL and ML gets closer and starts developing feelings. Season 1 concludes at Chapter 45 DNF @ Chapter 45 While the story was quirky and funny to begin with, it quickly lost my interest along the way with all the frivolous antics. Was really looking forward to more progression between the FL and ML but was disappointed. I mean we’re done with season 1 and honestly so little has happened other than the fact that now ML accepts FL’s fangirling over him albeit with embarrassment. Art is pretty enough to hook attention, along with the hook of the story being this all happened because of a fanfic. Maybe it’s just me having a disdain for saesangs so I can’t quite get past the fact that FL is such a huge fan for the ML, like it just bothers me and makes me cringe during some of their interactions. The politics are also confusing in my opinion and just not interesting enough to keep me reading. I mean I already know they’re gonna end up together so I don’t result care about the journey after the lackluster season 1. Don’t need more fangirls in the manhwa world, we already have enough in the real world where it’s a nuisance lol.

So chaotic. FL basically reincarnates as the older sister to the Uke in a tragic BL novel, wherein FL keeps going back to the point where she is 16 to restart things every time her younger brother dies at age 20 as fated. This literally keeps going like 20 times, so FL has essentially lived 65 years and that’s until the 21st reincarnation where she has gone just batshit insane and everything that’s done, including all the characters in this story are just memes at this point. So far all we know is that the original soul that inhabited the body of the current FL in this world made a deal or something in exchange to fulfil the younger brothers wish. FL was just the soul that was most similar to the original host of the body hence, why she’s in there right now. Story is hilarious, combining historical settings of noble houses and knights and kings but also has modern time slapstick jokes that’s very much at odds with the time period of the story. DNF @ Chapter 15 Although story is funny, I feel like the main plot of the story is just lost amongst all the jokes and ridiculousness happening every chapter. Not sure if I see myself picking this back up unless the story gets more serious in terms of plot wise regarding the weirdness behind the reincarnations. Also, wtf is up with the weird ass sword saying to survive and break the cycle, FL must fulfil the wish of the younger brother?

I won’t even bother tagging other labels for this story. In her first life, FL lives with her single mother, not knowing her biological father is alive. They live under the grace of the local lord, Benjamin who has an obsession with FL’s mom. She later dies and FL is taken under the guardianship of Benjamin who raises her to act and behave like her dead mom so he can finally have a piece of the mom whom he desires. After raising the FL as his supposed daughter for years, at 16, he takes her as his wife. FL, trapped and unwilling to live a torturous life any longer, leaps to her death and wakes up to when she was 8, one year before the death of her mother. In her second life, FL sets a goal to change her life around, unwilling to endure the suffering she went thru in the hands of Benjamin. FL tries to tell her mom several times about what she’s been through but she is not believed. Later, FL finds out that her real father is alive and is actually Benjamin’s brother which makes her mom Benjamin’s sister in law, making things even more gross. Instead, FL’s mom still ends up dying, and FL once again gets handed over into the hands of her new guardian, Benjamin. It’s so incredibly frustrating to see FL being so weak and meek. Even though she’s lived the life once and was given a second chance, she still didn’t set a proper plan to change the course of things. Instead, she cries and weeps at her misfortunate life. I know she’s 8 but she is considerably much older in term of mentality since she still retains the memories of her first life, so I cannot accept the fact that once she knew she was given a second chance to turn things around and not live a tragedy again, she just didn’t. I know she misses her mom and wants to spend time together but still, wtf was the point of knowing your fate and being given a second chance to change things and then just not doing a single thing about it?? Not once was it mentioned that FL was crafting a plan to get out of the horrible situation her and her mom was in, she was literally acting like a child despite being mentally at least 16. Like wtf? At chapter 8, she’s officially back in the hands of the disgusting Benjamin like she did in her first life. I don’t know if his story has a happy ending, but it just frustrates me too much for me to continue reading and chasing chapters.

Dropped because I find it boring and just generally not not interesting enough to keep me going.

Transmigration FL into the world where is the daughter of a noble man/normal family who is in debt. Much like FL’s previous life, she was also in student debt and was hoping that she could live freely once she has reincarnated but that’s not the case. FL ends up having a one night stand with ML and head over heels for her and enter proposing and marrying her. Not a whole lot of drama, ML is basically a puppy with FL and adores her to no end, going as far as acting out of his usual norm of the tyrant he is known to be. Update, as of 25/09/21, dropping this story from chapter 46 cause the story is monotonous and the art seems to have deteriorated? Or maybe I’m just realising that if the art even even good, and the story is lacklustre, there’s really nothing to carry it to keep reading.
