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!

OMFL IM ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE W THE ART AND STORY AND I NEED UPDATES, THURS AND SUN

OH MY FUCKING LORD A PERFECT 10/10 AMAZING FANTABULOUS THE FIRST MANGA THAT MADE ME WANT TO ACTIVELY LOOK FOR THE AUTHOR JUST SO I COULD PRAISE THEIR EXISTANCE TILL THE END OF TIME

This has to be one of my most fav shoujo/romance mangas, let alone one of the best "i reincarnated/travelled in time" plot based mangas. The main girl, raeliana, isn't a push over, she has her own goals, noah falls in love with her not immediately but because of who she is, all characters even the minor and the minor of minor ones are all ones i adore (except beatrice and vivian they can kiss my ass). the art is adorable and just incredible, the plot is well driven and intriguing, i loved every part and am still in constant awe just in general a wonderful and afdroabel read

if i could, i would die for this manga .,,iSTG this is one of my fav i travelled in time and remember my past life/magical mangas ever in existance!!! the plot is great and the art is absolutely impeccable, the characters are all hilarious and super interesting, and the main character is the best of all and dOESNT make me wanna kms. i love everything ab this and istg it just gets so good and cute and AH

i like this renderation of the trope to be honest, sasha doesnt pretend she can change their hearts or anything her only goal is to survive and eventually to protect the there deemed villainous, i like it it has individality, im super confused by lilith and some ther plot points but its good

omlll this was adorable

I LIKE i need an update
