I mean yeah, I'd love only good quality translations, but pretty much everyone uploading on here is breaking those rules, sometimes all of them at once.
The only rule that gets defended consistently, but isn't even on that picture is "don't snipe/upload over others".
Sometimes the translations are so bad its like trying to read a confusing poem ╥﹏╥
Sorry I wanted to like but I accidentally disliked (￣∇￣")
Fr, at that point why even bother? It's really obvious when they don't even bother proofreading machine translations.
The "um ackshually the seal really was totally necessary and he chose it himself" thing is suuuch a retcon. Those were NOT the circumstances of Vol. 1
That's the same envelope that asshole dropped, so annoying. Now we have to have this dragged out for even longer. Make the truth less obvious if you're gonna have this kind of plotline, it's so frustrating!
See you in like 10 chapters, I guess
It's like watching a slow mo car crash, but the actual crash hasn't happened yet and the closer the cars get to each other, the more the video slows down. And you want to click off, but you just know the crash is gonna be glorious so you stay seated...
FRRR!!! IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS!!!
(๑•ㅂ•)و✧
If that president somehow ends up costing them their jobs or something....
I hope they go independent and become super successful!!!
But even better would be all their coworkers and superiors standing up for them! They would risk losing 2 very good employees after all
It's so messed up that they made a toddler out to be a pervert for touching a little girl's leg, like that's INSANE. He's in KINDERGARTEN!!!!!! No one bothered to ask why he did it, just if he did it, as if that's some awful crime.
Honestly that whole scene was hella off, kids that age don't even know that looking under a skirt can be inappropriate, there was no reason for that other boy to shove him for it. It just doesn't make any sense to me.
I agree I lost my mind at that bit too
Y-Yay...I got what I wanted, more baby appearances...TToTT
Whyyyy did we need a wholesome grandpa arc, I knew it was coming, because it's so predictable, but I'm still disappointed
She's obviously not romantically interested in a child, so I'm not concerned about that. But it does bother me how many of these stories insist on having the ML falling in love/having a crush on a MC who's significantly younger (in body).
Like sorry, I dont think it's normal for a 14 year old to crush on a 9 year old, or whatever combination.
3 years is a tiny age gap that doesn't matter when you're an adult, but it's a significant difference when you're under 18, and an enormous chasm when you're under 14.
But these romance authors can never wait to slowly develop a romance, we always have to be reassured RIGHT AWAY that the ML is in love already...
You’re forgetting this is a historical which means the average age gap was 20+ years. Romeo was over 20 and Juliet was like 14 when they first met. A girl was eligible to be a bride from her first period which could come as young as 8/9 years old. Men were eligible to become husbands from the age of the end of puberty/ the end of heir transfer so 16+. Most men were fully grown adult men when they became the Lord of their own homes and took a bride. That’s historical fact. A few year age gap while they are both children is fine. My ex and I had a 2 year age gap and for the two years he was an adult before I became one, I called him a nonce every single day affectionately as a joke. It wasn’t a big deal to us because we had been together for 3 years prior. So if you’ve been together for 10+ years in a historical setting where she could have been sold to the duke himself to be his bride, I don’t see an issue at all.
Romeo and Juliet is fictional. It's also about how marrying girls off young destroys their bodies and is a detriment to everyone involved. Your historical facts about (noble) marriage also have nothing to do with romance, which my comment is explicitly about.
Your anecdote about you and your boyfriend also isn't relevant to the point I was making. A 18 and a 16 yo dating is not a big deal at all, and I never said it was.
And to reiterate, it's not normal for a 14 year old to have a crush on a 9 year old.
Please reread my original comment if you're confused
My dude, children have crushes on anyone. I had a crush on my teachers assistant who is 9 years older than me because he’s pretty and could lift me really really high when I was a kid. My baby sister is 4 and has a crush on a 3 year old in her class. My ex was interested in me despite me being younger than him. My best friend was interested me in for 7 years starting from when he was 16 and I was 13. Age gaps are normal in any relationship you have whether romantic or sexual or platonic. As long as it didn’t START when one was a young minor and the other was an adult, it’s fine and normal. If both are young minors, it’s okay. If both are older minors, it’s okay. 9 and 14 are young minors since both of them cannot make any judgement calls and are both under the age of consent in the vast majority of countries across the globe and once again, THIS ROMANCE STORY IS BASED OFF A HISTORICAL POINT OF VIEW AND THEREFORE YOU CANT APPLY MODERN PHILOSOPHIES TO IT.
And despite romeo and Juliet being fictional, that age gap was very very common. Common enough to be romanticised over and over again from plays to poems to novels to music and Shakespeare had to have gotten inspiration from somewhere.
Are there just going to be sex scenes from now on? I'm getting kinda bored, ngl
This is the first time they're having sex tho
That's not true, but it's only the second time, you're right. I had been reading a bunch of post-climax plotless sex scenes that day and got kinda annoyed lol.
I think I should just skip some updates and get back to them when I'm horny enough lmao
Oh yea I prb forgot lol. Watchin way too many at once does that
Being the first to do it doesn't make it good unfortunately. No idea how they're gonna justify the Emperor being THAT bad...or how the redemption is supposed to look.
Ironically I think his redemption is like the one good thing/best part it pulls off. Which is why I think the genre has so many character archetypes so similar to him to this day.
Can you tell me when that happens? Because I stopped at chapter 23 because I got so bored
I might give it another try sometime
It’s gradual. Tbh I wouldn’t bother, it’s not worth it. I think the childhood arc begins to get better around chapter 40ish and keeps going good but it quickly falls off after the timeskip and she gets older. I stopped somewhere around chapter like 170 I think? You’d be better off checking out the authors newer works or other titles in the same genre. There are a lot of newer ones that do it better.
Ok, nice, I had it open in a different tab, I'm gonna close it now. I've read so many of this genre I started trying the ones I skipped over before, and this was one of them. Looks like I'm gonna skip over it again.
Thank you!
I agree with you; the concept and the world-building through the fairies and the FL's grandparents' era are interesting.
However, the FL never grows up herself nor gains any skills; her naughty, spoilt attitude was cute when she was a child, but those traits don't pass on well into adulthood, especially when everyone around her is way more qualified.
It was my first villainess/histroical romance manwha and it sucks to see how they failed the MC.
It’s kinda a fault of the era because stories like these all have a very solid starter premise but always fail to consider the end goal. They begin with good worldbuilding and action but often struggle with pacing and end goals. Like “what is the MCs objective” and the romance usually kills it entirely. Often it makes it end up feeling rather 2 dimensional and directionless, no meat to the actual story. The story has to actually be about something after you finish the period of the character adapting to the world.
