moody_bish's manga / #Magic(40)

the fl... is too stupid, like a typical villainess that i just can't read anynore beyond ch21—k fine, i'll continue since other ppl are cleaning after her mess before things go awry. I'VE SEEN THE LIGHT. from stupidity to quirky, she ain't so immature once she's learned the weight of her actions. and i love how the author unraveled the value of trust not only for Ginger and Izana, but the main keys to the curse. Yep, totally a fave!

Valerie is traumatized by his magic teacher's prophecy despite wanting to be someone special as a reincarnated person. Hence, she became lethargic as she avoid standing out. However, as a cliche romance unfold between an isekai woman and a powerful man, she becomes entangled with them thru an unexpected engagement with the powerful man. Contrary to her misunderstandings, the truth behind the woman wasn't as stereotypical as she thought. Her constant misunderstanding stresses her, but ultimately realizes that she can't keep jumping into conclusions despite her fears.

My brain doesnt comprehend the nitty gritty details, but I do understand the gist as the chapters go. No annoying protagonists. The first shadow world is a headache so I skipped one chapter of nonsense. Sometimes it's exctingly unexpected, there are a few "wtf are you lagging behind for" moments like the limits or actual scope of the ML's power and decision-making. (Often all-knowing, sometimes too dense or questionable) ch94—again with the contradicting arrogance despite his charade of saying "it's not over until it's over". he's becoming an MC who is ALL TALK

1st season. fun and doesn't obsess over the original plot, as in, despite being scared when she meets death flags she knows that she isn't as dumb nor vain as the novel character. She's fun 2nd season is absolutely adorable! Plus our MC is so proactive and blunt. There's no time to fully poke into some things coz they just have this straightforward dialogues. So refreshing! 3rd season, Im so excited!!

vol1... AHHH excited for the next volumes (tho i think it'll be quite a long wait. // Vol2 is so annoying when the mother came and it's that ideology that children should just live with it even if theyre abandoned—and like, he's 50, why does he have to keep himself available for that bitch UGH

it's so wholesome! even if it shows just a chapter, like an introductory subarc for the MC—it doesnt make you feel empty coz it fulfills the introduction, the prequel of whatever adventure or drama that would unfold after finding her people.

besides the subpar ending (that had to be supplemented by text from the webnovel of how it would have ended), the story in general is wholesome. it really had an impactful beginning as the sisters were complementary to each other. However, when the internal conflict of staying or leaving this other world was being unraveled, it had fleeting and ungrounded feeling. Esp when it began to confront the romantic possibilities between Jade and Akane. "open ended" doesnt even cut it because the story fell flat just when a sort of climax is achieved between the two. there's a need for more chapters, or maybe even a volume to fully execute the story and at least match its strong beginning. (i'm not really one to appreciate being supplemented by the original text because it's supposed to be a manga adaptation... i don't like it when an adaptation is incomplete, where i'm seemingly forced to read the novel instead if I want to get the story.)
