Ahaha I liked it but the way she died is too stupid that it's funny. Ummm, I just hope it's good.
I disagree based on my preferences for smart characters. The omnipresent truck san is just an overused expression, but it means that the character died due to an accident or fate, not overwhelming stupidity. This time MC girl jumped for a manga she coud literally just buy from the bookstore again.
(⌒▽⌒)
that's true she could always just buy it again. But i also think that it's a reaction we all have like if i drop my phone, yea i could buy it again but my reaction will be to reach for it or jump for it. of course a phone is more expensive than a book but I would have the same reaction if something like a fruit or a pen fell...i would try and catch it without thinking about its monetary value. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭










I like her face when she get's forced to do things... Hmmm, am I an S like the Duke? (⊙…⊙ )
Anyhow, thank you uploader and scanlators, so very much for the massive set of updates! (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
I think the emoji faces she makes are supposed to be amusing, but I dont like them using her as a punching bag for comedy relief all the time (it happens a lot with female leads in shoujo) passing off any anger or annoyance she feels off as comedic, it make it harder to take her seriously.
Of course not at all times dude. Agreed with how some shoujo pass off serious things as comic relief. I think it's appropriate here though, because technically, she's just a subordinate who needs to do the bidding of the duke.
I just cant help but feel if the lead genders/positions were reversed and the dude was being treated like that by the girl. teased (insult to ego) made to carry around her baggage and submit to every unreasonable whim on order (if he doesnt want to) people would find her unlikable and go on to say she's treating him badly lol xD
Well in that case we have a different target audience then hahahah xD. (Dun dun dun... people who like femdom).
I do like how this manga doesn't avoid her position as a woman. On other shoujo, there would always be convo or scenes like: "oh no she's a girl, musn't let her carry heavy things" and the like.
Totally agree, was thinking the same thing while reading. A male lead is pretty much never endeared to fans through such infantilization. Saying she’s strong and independent constantly via text doesn’t mean anything when you constantly undermine it with subtext. And strong female leads often fall into this context where they really aren’t taken that seriously and are fallen for as the male lead sees her “femininity” poke through.
