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.

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

At the Northern Fort

Ongoing | mikuni tsukasa,akaya tawa | 2019 released

So cute! All the characters fawn over Milfiria. I like the found family vibes there. The MC is also the daughter of two pretty powerful spirits. Even though she’s reincarnated, her mind is that of a child’s, so you can throw that setting out the window. Otherwise, this is a pleasant, healing manga. 33

Life in Another World as a Housekeeping Mage

Ongoing | Fuguruma you,Nama,Ono akihito | 2019 released

This story is so good! At first I didn’t know where they were going with the MC (Shiori)’s trauma, but the author actually portrayed it quite well— the abuse and also her journey of healing from it. It’s scarily accurate at depicting the corruption that often happens behind closed door and to foreign women. It’s a good blend of fantasy and reality. The MC’s “housekeeping” magic is quite novel in adventurer settings like these imo. One of the things I really love in isekai is when the protagonist longs for the homeland because I think anyone would in that scenario. I love the romance between Shiori and Alec (ML). It just really screams supportive, and I love all the other side characters of well, all of which have depth and truly care for the MC. Such a great read! I only regret not finding this sooner.

Magic Artisan Dahliya Won't Hang Her Head ~A Free Craftsman Life From Now On~

Ongoing | Amagishi hisaya,Kamada | 2000 released

33.2 Absolutely love this! The romance is slow, but the execution is so good! I absolutely love their mutual pining and first love vibes. It’s really interesting how the MC is a magic artisan, but I like how she doesn’t make things perfectly the first time. She works with other to improve her creations, but at the same time her modern mindset does make her kind of OP? Anyway, the writing is so realistic. Her ex is a jerk, but his mindset towards women reflects common sentiment held by men.

I'm a former slave, the oni slave I bought has too much sexual stamina so i want to throw him away...

Ongoing | Amaharu niko,Misaki saito | 2019 released

44 So cute! I like the slow romance. The title is weird, but give this a chance!

The White Mage Who Was Banished From the Hero's Party Is Picked up by an S Rank Adventurer ~ This White Mage Is Too Out of the Ordinary!

Ongoing | Suigetsu sora,Mukuno wasabi | 2019 released

The premise is interesting. Execution could a bit better, but I’m glad this isn’t harem. The MC’s party members aren’t just flat characters, which is nice. Better than your typical isekai where the MC gets kicked out of the hero’s party 37

Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival @COMIC

Ongoing | harunohi biyori,wakasa kobato | 2019 released

Interesting! This has all the qualities of a good shounen (MC getting stronger and all that) except the MC is a girl. I like how this isn’t romance focused (so I’ve seen so far). The MC is so badass. I hope the rest of the chapters continue to pan out this way… 20.2

Welcome to Dungeon Hotel

Ongoing | Zizingu | 2022 released

At first, i was hesitant to read this, but it’s pretty good! Her skill is unique and OP, and I don’t mind the romance. it’s nice that the ML has some melanin. i’m considering reading the novel! 47
