You know that feeling when the plot just starts to spiral down the drain? Damn it’s becoming quite the mess
I don’t forgive the supposed ML for showing up with supposed fan service. I think we are supposed to be exciting because of the previous foreshadowing but this just lazy hand waving at the plot for this point. It’s giving this is ending in like 10 or less chapters energy, and I would hope not because the first season was really promising
I couldn’t even bring myself to fully finish this, it’s a shame because I thought the start of this story was great. The art I could forgive, the story I cannot. But thanking all you readers trashing this in the comments because wow, the FL is downright selfish and infuriating. Few stories spiral like this completely. I wish I could say it just got boring and dropped but no, this is a story if you read far enough you’ll likely drop from frustration or continue reading in disbelief.
It’s so interesting in the ending authors note they mention a 6th novel volume but the manga having to discontinue in the 5th- but I think the endings the same as 6th and just missing the content in between (or rushed)
I loved this manga, I was lucky enough to stumble across a physical copy (Japanese only, I can’t read it lol but it’s beautiful) of the 1st copy. Highly recommend to anyone who finds this and is considering! It’s very sweet, art is classic and the characters are charming and cute.
Was it only me that was rooting for the second male lead in the beginning? I thought the emperor was a jerk and was hoping FL would go for the brother. It’s a tired route this whole - emperor/duke in the beginning of a contract marriage but wait they catch feelings and want to make it up with an overkill of gifts.
It’s sad FL had no backbone for how she was mistreated in the beginning











Oh wow I must have read this early on and forgot about it- but this is soooooo good!! Riceball has my heart ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~ I love this world building, couple, and story so so so much.
