Lady Baby

Ongoing | JU Hyeon, Pingmin | 2000 released

The story of a girl who goes through tragedy after losing her family, plucked out for dead one by one. One day, as Calliope sings as she mourns for the dead, a strange and unknown deity grants her a second chance at life, a second chance to fix things. Will she be able to change things this time or will she fail once more? Review: This comic really centers around family love and appreciating your family. Once Calliope was born, the family grew closer than ever before, all to shield one thing: Calliope, the supposed genius that learned how to speak full sentences by the age 1, could solve multiplication and division problems, and could also speak and act in proper etiquette mannerisms by the age of 5.The whole package! All while Calliope struggled to find whom was behind the murders of her family. What’s there not to love? Although it is a romance comic, you can find funny tidbits within your read and lots of attractive potential love interests! In conclusion, I love it. Comment: Calliope is scary than me, even as as a child. Eep!(>﹏<)

The Abandoned Empress

Complete | Ina, yuna | 2000 released

Once upon a time, there was a simple girl named Aristia from the noble House of Monique. She was groomed to become the empress of the Castina Empire. She watched and fell in love with the stone-hearted prince from afar. But one day, her future is stripped away when an otherworldly girl appears. Aristia’s life comes crashing down piece by piece. Perhaps she wasn’t the one of the prophecy after all? When her miserable life finally comes to end by execution, she suddenly wakes up as her ten year-old self! What will she do with this new chance to change her destiny once and for all? Review: The art is always a main variable in determining whether how fit a comic is as a whole to your tastes. As for mine? I would like to think that they are pretty refined because of conditioning from other books I’ve read that have impacted my standards for novels and comics alike. The art is aesthetically pleasing to look at. Besides that, the plot is fairly interesting. I anticipate what Aristia’s new future looks like. I give the artist(s) props for drawing such an ornate comic such as this one. Overall, I feel that this comic deserves the five stars. Comment: Soo.... There’s a love triangle. Wait-no. A love square. You know what? I don’t freaking know. There are just so many potential love interests. You know that feeling that you’re so hellbent on? That feeling when this thought is constantly running through your mind-“If this ship isn’t cannon, I swear to the gods-“ Yeah, that feeling. A ship can either make it or break it for me. If I don’t like the main couple, then I’ll surely have trouble reading it, whether it be a manga, comic, novel, or fanfic. I ship the protagonist with the prince. I believe that people can change, so the prince is the new timeline isn’t the same as the one in the old one. I feel like they just-CLICK! You know what I’m sayin’? Like they were destined to be one another. Update: OH MY FREAKING GODS! I FREAKING KNEW IT! THE MALE LEAD IS THE PRINCE! HELL YEAH!!! MY READER’S INTUITION IS NEVER WRONG! MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (`∀´)Ψ P.S: Left off on chapter 129.

Death Is The Only Ending For The Villainess

Ongoing | gwon gyeoeul,suol | 2019 released

Review: I love the relationship developed between her siblings. Chapter 2 was my favorite chapter for that reason. I love her character and how romance isn’t a priority. Things aren’t overshadowed by it. The story is truly beautiful. 10/10. One of the best isekais I’ve read. I love the system aspect of this. It’s unique compared to other isekai. The art is also— *chef’s kiss* I really hope the crown prince didn’t die.... (πーπ) Update: he's ok thank the gods it was just her being worried Update: Okay, this is truly unlike any other shoujo I have read. The story isn't black and white. Even the "typical" MLs all have their own motivations and don't act purely out of affection for Penelope. i absolutely adore the complex relationships Penelope has with all of the love interests, especially Callisto and Eckles. Even her relationship with her brothers is extremely nuanced. *cough* Derrick. We can't forget to mention her father and maid as well. The art is freaking gorgeous and consistent. It conveys everything so well. I need to thank the author so much for existing because this is such a freaking masterpiece.

Beatrice

Ongoing | ma cherie,cierra | 2019 released

Beatrice, a conquered area’s princess—Correction: Former princess. Beatrice is taken in as a slave. Fearing for her life, Beatrice dons a new appearance and decides to live an ordinary life as a slave. She addresses herself as Chloe, the name she was given before she was forced to change it. Now, all she has to do is stay out of the captain of the knights’ way. Easy enough, right? Chloe finds that avoiding the hero might not be as easy as she thought. Review: At first, I thought that Chloe’s appearance looked off. When she finally cut her hair, I could see why. I think that her face was meant to suit short hair. Her beauty dazzled me, with and without short hair. I couldn’t really get hooked on the art style at first, but over the lengths of chapters, I can definitely say that the art improved. The plot is fairly engaging, and I look forward to updates. That last cliffhanger definitely let me hanging. Anyways, I think that this comic has tons of potential. I think that if I wait to read the upcoming chapters, I will come to like this comic even more. I eagerly anticipate the day when that comes. Comment: Chloe is a cinnamon roll. That’s all. Wait-also, the male love interest has the most fluffiest smile ever tbh. The male lead is so cute! *internal squeals* Squeeee! ヽ(*>∇<)ノ Side note: Caught up to chapter 41

National School Prince Is A Girl

Ongoing | warring young seven,战七少 战七少 | 2019 released

Comment: Why am I just now finding out that their is a comic adaptation of the original novel? I was just reading it the other day and it just popped up on my feed. Weird coincidence, huh? -_- Anyway, the characters are different from what I had previously imagined, but this definitely gave me more of a concrete visual of the characters. Usually, when I imagine characters, I can’t see them crystal clear. It’s like I can imagine maybe one feature, and that’s it, but even that changes along with my perspective of the character.
