I’m a Villainess, Can I Die?
Ch 56 damn but here’s a new unique concept…a suicidal FL, a female lead that’s truly just done with everything and wants to die…but no one wants to let her I hope she finds happiness with her new life. And bro Ik the ML is the blond servant boy but like…mannn I can’t help but like the white long haired guy more he’s cute, and has so many scenes with her, and you telling me he’s the 2nd ML?? BROO when you’re the ogML in the og novel but only the 2nd ML in the current novel…man lemme just have him then the art is so pretty. Man Ik this Manhwa was gonna make me cry but damn…the suicide scene and the aftermath with the family all talking it out, I love that for them, it really pulled at your heart strings. Usually stories like this don’t go irl the deep complex topics of sucide and depression but this story I really felt like I could feel each character’s emotions, such a good fuckkng read
Kill the Villainess
This manhwa is such an interesting take on all the other villainess stories I’ve seen in the past. Most times the person who gets reincarnated just kinda accepts their life and lives on as that person, but this is the first time in actually seeing a villainess really struggle and fight to go home. Also the raw emotion from villainess and heroine characters in this story is portrayed so beautifully. One would think from reading all other villainess stories that one would have an easy life, living with a sliver spoon, and that all the MC has to do is change her fate by not bullying the heroine...but this story really shows it’s not that easy, being reincarnated as the villainess really isn’t all that nice when you have everyone against. No one’s on your side, it really can be heart wrenching, and I applaud our FL for still being so strong. As for the heroine, tbh, I was kinda weary of her in the beginning, yeah we know we all hate those naive bubbly types thầy can do no wrong...but after seeing more into the heroine’s thoughts, and realizing that she too, just like the villainess, is trapped in their stereotyped roles...makes me pity her as well. No matter what she does ppl love and dote on her for no reason, and other ppl end up paying the sins for her. Usually this wouldn’t bother ppl since other ppl’s feelings or hardships don’t affect them, but I like how the heroine’s really in tune with her emotions as well, and really feels gulity and trapped by her inability to do anything without relying on others or having her actions hurt someone. Both the heroine and the villainess are such complex characters. I Lowkey wish they could be friends and just understand each other’s hardships...but are their roles too contrasting for that?? Idk, but I’m so interested to read more! Left off on ch.24
What It Means to be You
The male lead is just so unbearable. Man talks about how he doesn’t want her to leave and how he’s getting money for her so she won’t feel bad about how her family scammed him...YET HE MAKES HER FEEL EVEN WORSE Bc he literally uses money to blackmail her so she can’t dirvorce him. What a dick head. And how stupid is this man, you woke up in her body twice with a gun and pills next to her and you couldn’t put two and two together??? Even when she shows such obvious signs of abuse you just ignored her?? Sorry but this man can’t get any redemption from me, my girls deserves someone who’ll treat her right from the very beginning. Sads coz Ik hes the male lead, but I wish she would just leave Him and find someone new. Anyways left off on Ch20
Just when I thought I came here to die
This was surprisingly kinda cute ahaha
For My Abandoned Love
Ch 16, I love the FL so much. I love scheming FLs and wish we had more stories of them. We love a cunning, smart scheming FL. So tried of the oh I’m so kind FL troupe. But mannn the ogML and ogFL are so annoying, like I get they’re not even evil but they’re just so naively stupid, and their ignorance actually pisses me off more than if they had been purely evil. Tbh I actually like purely evil villains more bc damn at least they know they’re evil, even when they’re two faced, they know behind their mask that they are evil. But these og leads…they think they’re so saintly and holy when really their ignorance plus their superiority complex makes they so much more unbareable bc they do evil things but don’t even realize they’re doing it, and they will never realize what they’re doing is evil bc in their eyes they can do no wrong. So fucking annoying. Imma be sad if they don’t get a proper wake up call, but sadly it seems the revenge isn’t as bad as I wanted it to be. I wanted the ogFL to lose everything the ML gave her so she realized how much she took him for granted. But now it’s too late and she’s left to wallow in ruins. As for the CP I just want him to wake up and realize that he’s lost a true friend bc of a stupid girl and now he’s al alone with no trusted friend to rely on. I just don’t want them to have happy ending at all. I want the best for our new current leads but the og leads deserve nothing but the worse….so after reading spoilers imma just wait to pick this up again when it’s complete bc apparntly the revenge isn’t satisfying, bro they don’t even get karma, bc the sudicial guy just decides he wants to leave them alone… LIKE WHY..ALL THIS BUILD UP AND NOW THEY JUST GET TO LIVE HOWEVER THEY LIKE?!(?( NO RUIN THEM EXPOSE THEIR HYPOCRICY!! ugh. So disappointing
The Villainess Wants to Die Gracefully
Ch 18 (other sites) the translation is rough but it’s still bareable, but damn this story seems so interesting! I’m a sucker for FL’s who are just bored with life and just wanna end it all but we all know it’s now gonna happen ahahh, I can’t wait to see what happens when the male leads all grow up~ we need a time skip so according to spoilers the ML is actually the blond hair boy while the black haired boy just sees her as his teacher, so no love triangle it seems. BUT MANNN THE RED HEAD COUNT, I LOVE HIM, he’s sooo hot and his whole family being loyal to her for generations is so cute~ apparently spoilers say that everyone in their family always falls in love with her at first sight, like whoa. Good for her Ahaha
The Demon Lord Wants to Die
Completed! This one has such an interesting premise…a demon lord FL who wants to die, and she wants the ML to kill her and Mann I was not expecting all the sad parts and all the deaths…Mann if ppl had just communicated things would’ve worked out so differently. I mean I’m glad we had a happy ending but like..ABEL IS STILL DEAD MY FAV BOY LOYAL BEST BOY dang it, and Marie and Cain could’ve been happy together…if only man…but I mean it was still a good read regardless
The Way the Mage Faces Death
Ch 26, seems interesting, I always love academy storylines~! No romance yet tho and I feel like it won’t come for awhile, we got our gentlemen BROWN HAIRED (SQUEAL) ML and badass FL…we also got the og FL as a bird which is new…I wonder what’s gonna happen to her…oh well but I’m intrigued
The World Without My Sister Who Everyone Loved
Ch 26 (https://anigliscans.com/a-world-without-my-sister-who-everyone-loved-chapter-24/ for better translation) and while this story seems interesting, knowing the novel spoilers make me disappointed. Firstly I don’t hate this story for the same reason a lot of reviewers on bato hated this story. Personally Idc that she isn’t “badass” or “looking to get revenge” for her first life, tbh it makes more sense to see her depressed after her traumatic past life. And tbh it very reasonable of her to just want nothing to do with her past family/abusers than get revenge on them. So I actually find her stoic and depressed nature fresh compared to how all the other FLs in these stories suddenly just have a 180 personality change and suddenly get badass after being abused and traumatized. And also maybe I just wanna see more depressed FLs, idk it’s refreshing to see. As for the story tbh if I didn’t know the spoilers I think I would be pretty invested. But I’m also thinking…idk how her family will ever redeem themselves bc Ik “oh they were mind controlled” that’s why they were mean to her…but like idc. Sure even if it’s no fault of their own bc they were mind controlled, but it doesn’t just wash away all the abuse and trauma the FL had to endure at their hands. Same thing can be said about ppl who treat others badly while under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Even tho those ppl weren’t in the right mind, it doesn’t negate the fact they hurt ppl. And the ppl they hurt don’t have to forgive them if they don’t want to. However I do understand if the FL wants to forgive this family but like…I wish she would just say “I forgive y’all but I don’t wanna be in the same space as y’all anymore” bc girl seeing your abusers is traumatic. There are still consequences to their actions and our girl still has nightmares and is traumatized. So I wish honestly she would just get away from that whole family. But ofcccc from spoilers she’s not (Ofc like in all these stories sigh), esp bc apparently the older brother is the ML…which like WHAT THE FUCK. You could’ve fooled me with that one bc in the 26 chs I’ve read so far, they probabaly had like 3 scenes together…whereas the younger brother has mult scenes with the FL and is regularly blushing around the FL…so you would think he’s the ML…but idkkkk apparntly from novel spoilers it’s the older brother so…but damn one of these days I just want the FLs to find a completely new and nice guy and settle down with him, not her abuser from the past sigh. Aside from plot…the art is realy unique. Really pretty, kinda feels like novel art…but it’s ruined by the character ‘s lackluster basic designs I feel. The ML’s family honestly just looks like one guy in different stages of life. The artist really said copy and paste with the dad and sons. Their genes so strong it makes me wonder what the mom even looked like…but she never comes up in the story so like who knows. Would this even be an otome isekai story if the mom wasn’t killed off or missing /s. Anywayssss yea doc with the combination of this whole review…imma just hold off on this story rn. We’ll see how it goes when it’s completed, but imma keep an open mind.
