skip beat is literally the king of the “rise to fame” and “become a better actress” in my opinion.
In this one there are comedic moments and it’s still an enjoyable read, but skip beat has, the bomb ass character development,
she has a better plot when improving her acting skills,
and overall the challenges Kyoko has to overcome have a wider range then just jealous one dimensional females and a fuck boy with no character
But too bad skip beat becomes a bit repetitive, Im pretty sure I stopped reading it after the two main leads became “siblings” or when Kyoko had a run in with her mother

This...vs skip beat
Which one u prefer to read?
Personally...i love how kyoko embrace her lack of skill and wanting to improve.
But her denseness is kill me off...
On the other hand, this story....I just loss interested to read after ch.15.... I may pick it up again in future....
