The Fake Duchess In Distresss

Ongoing | U_j,Haesa | 2022 released

At first, the romance is very slow, but I think the payoff is pretty good. I like that the MC is a businesswoman! She’s capable, and seeing her plans in action is satisfying. This has its clichés, but I like the execution. There is no miscommunication. The leads stand as firm equals, and they express their true feelings toward each other, unbound by their initial contract! Refreshing story, and the art is so beautiful ^^ I like how this isn’t purely romance and how’s there are primary slice of life elements.

How to Get My Husband on My Side

Ongoing | nyangiwa hyangshinlo , kitty and spices,siru | 2019 released

the drama in this story gives me high blood pressure, but it’s addicting. the mc’s trauma, eating disorder, and domestic abuse is well depicted and handled. The art is gorgeous, but the plot is so fracking slow… Still, I want more!! like girl spends 102 chapters in this facade which is understandable given her trauma but frustrating as a reader. i love the romance! i love how it’s expressed in not just grand gestures but even the more mundane actions like washing each other’s hair…. this is a super good story with a complex plot! the characters are fairly dynamic, and it allows one to really feel their emotions.

The Beast Tamed by the Villainess

Ongoing | Seol-yeong (설영/雪影) | 2019 released

It’s interesting! It’s been a long time since I’ve read a couple with as twisted and dark of a relationship as this one. Are they toxic? Are they healthy? Does the ML (Magnus) love the MC (Ilyna)? Does he want revenge? I love the complex plot full of dichotomies. I like how all sides of their relationships are displayed. The MC and ML are multifaceted with no clear “villain.” The angst and the toxicity is so addicting…

Turning a Crazy Dog Into a Young Master

Ongoing | Zusiha,Yepbee | 2024 released

This is really good. A major part of that is the ART. It’s so fricking scrumptious. They make Ceres look so handsome im done. Anyway, I like how the MC is a priestess, who didn’t transmigrate, reincarnate, or do anything like that. I like her complex character! She’s mature but also has her vulnerable moments.The ML’s past is interesting as well. I like their casual and close dynamic with each other and how the ML is so clingy hehe

I Think I Have Transmigrated Somewhere

Ongoing | | 2022 released

I like how this isn’t just romance! There’s a fair bit of fantasy too with the world ending, the MC and the ML having powers, and the MC’s sister being a regressor and whatnot. The romance is nothing special as are there character designs visually, but I love how the leads care for each other. Their dynamic is cute but a little frustrating, though. I like how they quarrel and are honest with each other. The side couple is kinda cute, too… but only kinda 47

Concealing Sacred Simplicity

Complete | Nirugi,Sam Ju-il,Gunguma | 2023 released

22 I really like this! The setting is immediately what drew me in. In a world where there’s magic, I usually expect some sort of medieval backdrop, but this surprisingly is more modern. Maybe mid 1900s-ish I’m not quite sure. I love the desaturated yet warm art style, too. Mature lead characters are always my jam! Kind of reminds me of “Turning” a little.

I Thought It Was a Common Isekai Story

Ongoing | Doyosay,레몬개구리,아진,Wonjak ,Ajin | 2022 released

This is so freaking good! It stays true to its title. This is a very original take on isekai. The ML (Killian) was jerk at first, but he redeemed himself. I adored his character development. I like how the author treats the subject of sex like I've seen a lot of isekai approach it with this pure mindset and whatnot, but this is different! There is a hidden truth to the setting, a mysterious force that drives the characters of the novel to adhere to the original story. Very interesting and also splendidly written. Love the leads' chemistry.

The Villainess Wants to Enjoy a Carefree Married Life in a Former Enemy Country in Her Seventh Loop!

Ongoing | Amekawa Touko,Kino Hinoki | 2000 released

at first, i thought this was just a light read, but the plot is fairly complex. the ml has an interesting character. he’s kind of morally grey in a sense; he kills people, not without reason, but he does. I like how the mc is so capable. she’s well rounded from all of her previous lives, and she’s strong enough to take care of herself! love that and also how the ML believes in her. anyway, they’re both such cool characters. slow paced story, but the world building and side characters are well written

I Am the Last Villainess He Has to Kill

Ongoing | Gyeoul walcheu | 2022 released

29 LOVING the found family vibes ngl i think people are being too harsh. the main plot is pretty cliché, but this story adds its own twist to it. even the side characters are interesting. the art isn’t the greatest, but this is worth it imo. there’s also an actual gay side couple (zanbar x jenkins) which is rare in these types of manhwa

Please Don’t Come To The Villainess’ Stationery Store!

Ongoing | 여로은 | 2019 released

82 So freaking good. A dark skinned ML??! HE'S SO SCRUMPTIOUS LIKEEE ugh. i love how this shows platonic relationships as well. it's refreshing how dominick isn't a love interest, but rather, part of the MC's family. Everything about this is pretty uplifting. I like seeing the MC help children, comfort them, be there got them, and stuff. The revenge aspect is also pretty satisfying (tho the villains aren't out of the ordinary).
