Death: Beheaded
Time Travel: Same Fantasy World (12)
Plot: To protect her family's future downfall, Lariet goes to the royal capital to become a maid of the crown princess (actually the crown prince in disguise).
Thoughts: I finally understand what people meant when they talked about S2's translations. Jeepers. How much better would this manga be with some proofreading?
Death: Murdered
Time Travel: Same Fantasy World
Role: Empress Candidate
Plot: Murdered by her husband (the emperor) and his consort (her sister), our heroine wakes up in the past. This time she'll have revenge.
Thoughts: What. I will say 'killed defending her unborn baby' brings up a completely different image to 'died as a result of a forced cesarean so the emperor could make the baby into medicine for his consort...'
Death: Beheaded (22)
Time Travel: Same Fantasy World (19)
Role: Empress Candidate
Plot: After Lizzie's sister became empress, scheming nobles betrayed their family and had them all executed. After returning to the past, Lizzie aims to prevent this tragedy from reoccurring by becoming empress in her sister's place.
Thoughts: Fingers crossed that Lizzie can survive this time and have her revenge!
Death: Blood Loss
Time Travel: 16
Role: Princess
Powers: Mind Reading
Plot: After being betrayed by her husband (the emperor) and her sister, Chu Xiyao realizes she's somehow returned to the past. Now she will have her revenge.
Thoughts: Huh. Where's the mind reading gone to? What's the point of having that power when you're not using it at every opportunity? It would be so cool if the prince also had powers and was trying to keep it hidden from the FL... but's it's not to be :(
Death: Magical Overwork (21)
Time Travel: Same Fantasy World (20)
Role: Summoner
Plot: Ivona is used by her husband (and his male lover) to promote his exploits. She eventually dies after overusing her magic. However she awakens in the past, and this time she's going to live for her own happiness (and get rid of her asshole fiancée).
Thoughts: I swear the worst part of this manhwa is the different scanlation groups fighting over it and making ridiculous comments. It's seriously putting me off.
Death: Stabbed
Time Travel: Ancient Times
Role: Premier's Daughter
Plot: Luna is murdered and wakes up in ancient times. Using her special effects make-up and other abilities from her time as an assassin, she aims to become empress.
Thoughts: WTF is this. I want to scream at her so badly. Her bloody "I'm so ugly" (she's not). Then she removes her heart beauty spot a couple chapters in and suddenly she's all "I'm so beautiful". I came for sneaky makeup artistry and now I hate the FL.
