this is absolutely one of my all time favs, if there was just one manga i could read for the rest of my life, whether if its yaoi or not, it would be Sign I SWEAR this is like my comfort manga i need this printed and in my house istg 74

i honestly like this manga a lot, but a lot of it irks me... i feel like a lot of the key characteristics estelle has is much like the same steretypical female protagonist of a young adult YA novel from the pre-2011 era where they would always have this past riddled with abuse and all that where it would be extremely exaggerated (although it could be well written most times it isnt conveyed well, just feels like a mockery of the subject), and then in the present time the protagonist somehow becomes the chosen one and is all over-powered (really ramming in the "most powerful female lead" narrative)... i feel like they do this w estelle because not only was she abused terribly most of her life (and i do commend the author for integrating the effects of that throughout her growth), she is now not only a mix member of the most dangerous/demon-like family, making her able to become the empress herself, having not one but TWO extremely powerful spirit contracts, AND she was reincarnated and remembers her past memories (which honestly the first time i read this. i had to keep reminding myself that she had the mind of a 20+ yr old who remembers her past life, and then on my second read i actively avoided remembering because a lot of her actions and thoughts didnt reflect it), honestly theres some other things i dont remember too that makes her that stereotype,, also she has a few badass scenes that i absolutely love but i think she's baby-ed way too much, like she still has yet to use her spirits aT ALL (why have two when you dont even use one, and since you have to keep em a secret why not just have one if you're gonna be all crafty to even use them)... ALSO idk if i was the only one but the romance between emel and her who is obviously mUCH older, and the suspected weird love b/n her an her fam is a lil too weird for me... to be honestly i know im egging on this a lot but i dont hate it i def think its interesting to read but i have a lot of thoughts

I reallyyy adore this manga, i find the art first of all to be extremely well done, and i absolutely aDORE the main girl shes so cute but she uses her past life memories to her advantage aND has a major goal shes working towards thats actually legitemate (which is often missed upon during these "i travelled in time" "i remember my past life" mangas),, i LOVE how much her fam loves her, and although its a lil vcreepy how the much older boys are legit in love w a child when she is a child, im willing to let go of that for now. in general, love the plot and love the progression anD love the badassness!
