Card Captor Sakura
The Abandoned Empress
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.

Very smutty! You'd think this'd just be about the entanglement of bodies, but the romance is surprisingly well balanced and impactful. I like how the story isn't too exaggerated and dramatic. The side characters actually have boundaries (i.e. Soga who realized Yamamoto was in a relationship). Plus, the leads aren't insufferable. The ML is gentle and doting, and the MC is headstrong. I also like the role sake plays in their love story~ Would read again.
