Popping out at chapter 273.

Sometimes this series is so bad it goes back round to good. Bai is pretty stupid and self sacrificial that she’s always getting herself into danger. She’s kind to a HUGE fault which her mates love her for yet at the same time it makes them so seethingly jealous. (Seriously, can she stop wandering off on her own? This can’t be her character trait.)
All her bois are red flags except Winston; Parker is immature, petty and never respected her mating boundaries at the start. Curtis is just plain yandere with a short fuse (though thankfully he develops tolerance later), Shuu was so sad and desperate that he fell JUST FROM ASKING FOR DIRECTIONS, Miur was reckless and manipulative, Blue is whiny and pompous and Avah’s… Avah.
Bai is constantly working mediator as the boys she does end up with constant squabble, fight and backstab and stressed as to when the tensions might snap and one of them might actually end up killing each other and they almost never care. Winston’s the only one that minds where he stands, keeps a respectful distance so she doesn’t have to deal with the jealousy he’d invoke (though it does anyway because they are all insecure as hell), is helpful to her at the drop of a hat and asks for nothing but her companionship, whatever it may be. He’s so great.
I honestly skimmed the Manipulative Miur/Peacock Tribe arc because we ain’t got time for clueless protag. Skipped to the reveal when her boi Parker finally came to pick Bai up and his deception was revealed and MAN. WAS IT SATISFYING TO SEE MIUR SEEMINGLY DYING OF HEARTBREAK. WHAT DID YOU THINK WAS GONNA HAPPEN, MIUR? SHE SAID SHE’D ONLY ACCEPT YOU IF HER PARTNERS DID TOO. DID YOU REALLY HAVE HOPE AFTER BURNING CURTIS AND OBSTRUCTING PARKER?
No one has mentioned this, it seems. But I’m happy the ML has fully come round and is working his ass off to make it up to her from the shadows after the absolute dick he made of himself in the beginning.
She’ll probably forgive him because the FL is that nice once the reveal happens. But if I were her, I’d want that man to NEVER show his face to me ever. Just because he made some pissy assumptions when she LEGALLY OWNED THAT LAND, he literally criminalised her existence, sabotaged her farm, shot an arrow at her which could have fatally hit her if she had just made a single unexpected movement and KNOWINGLY TESTED A POTENTIALLY MILITARY WEAPON OVER HER LAND.
Am I remembering this right?
He is lucky this is a light-hearted story because his bullshit law could’ve killed her. When no one is allowed to interact with you or even acknowledge you exist, how do you shop? Get supplies? Feed yourself when you can’t buy groceries? She literally came to the farm with the clothes on her back and a suitcase. The only pro to that law is she’s technically exempt from taxes?
I feel very bad for Seedling. He’s very autism-coded to me, so seeing Jay really rib and hate on him makes me go TuT even if I get it.

Yeah, he fucked up with the fireslug, jumping into a fight he didn’t have a clear chance at winning and needlessly making it rampage. But I thought he was sorta correct during the fire carriage, even if he was tactless about it. Jae is still a low level, took on a quest (unwillingly, granted) she was not at a capacity to confidently do, was berating herself the entire journey that she was weak and was trying to argue that her dryads were fine and she was the weak one when her dryads skills ARE tied to her level. They can’t use their bigger skills thanks to her soul limit. She literally only wion via pay-to-win which is technically NOT strength.
That’s one of my peeves about determined “i just gotta believe and not give up” stories is that they tend to undermine the trait of knowing when to pick your battles and run. It’s worked out for her so far, as I just finished the Saving Terrarium 28 arc. She is absolutely correct to not want to pull Daisy out at the slightest hint of danger, but I hope her special-grade dryads and string of lucky victories doesn’t leave her overconfident and push her into battles that go way over her head, even if she does have infinite money.
I just started and I don’t even know or remember her names. But…
“I hate gacha games. But the visuals are sick.”
SHE HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD FOR GACHA GAMES OPWJVHWLDJ
One of my peeves about “sucking up to fam so that I avoid my death flag” stories is that there rarely is a clear enough line where the sucking up passes from “for my own benefit” to “I genuinely care about these people and I am caring about them because I love them”.
The FL has declared that, while she sympathises on the similar situations she’s experienced, she doesn’t really consider them family that she’s gonna stick around in. She may have cried when when her father greeted her after school but any affection-starved person is gonna react that way. It doesn’t necessarily mean anything.
She has a right to be a little jaded about family thanks to what the soul switch did and having experienced abuse in her actor life as well as watching her true life die for 20 years. But I hope there is a point where she comes round, believes they care for her and she no longer has to mentally tip toe on whether she’ll trigger her sudden death.
HE OUTRIGHT-
AND SHE JUST-
OH MY GOD! WE ARE GOING THIS ROUTE?! THIS IS PAIN!
I’M ON HIS SIDE. THIS IS BULLCRAP.
Popping out at chapter 50 to agree that Ars is becoming increasingly irrelevant ever since his dad’s death. He’s been constantly freaking out, stresses whenever decisions are left up to him and, unless my mind is playing tricks on me, speaking less and less on the plot. The drunk chick has only been recently introduced and I want her as a main character more than Ars. Ars is more of a lucky charm figurehead than a Lord right now.
Just popping out at chapter 37 to say that the end translator notes are always so hilarious, poking at the trope and making fun of the protag. The most recent translator note ribbing on Ars for not knowing where the countries are despite being the head lord and studying since he was 3 XD I’ve started thinking of him as “Bobblehead” thanks to them.
I love isekai stories where the protagonist wants to achieve some sort of tangible goal. Not like self confidence or not living like previously. But like I want to make books (Ascendence of Bookworm), the handful of stories where they want to open a coffee shop, open a restaurant, become a doctor and open a practice or, in this case, grow rice XD
I’m 11 chapters in but what is with the women (and the kids or the orphanage) in this series and being unable to take a decent compliment without assuming connotations or insulting the dude back? Do they want to be treated like shit?
MORE ISEKAIS BC THERES NO MORE ROOM IN LIST 1
again, not all of these are isekais, mostly just strong women being badass while wearing two layers of underskirts and a corset. the isekais in this list are a little more spicy though, like sexy spicy whoo

Honestly, I find this story a little bit of a mess. This constant back and forth tug on the marriage is making it hard for me to care about the plot. I dunno if maybe it's just the artstyle and how unchanging their facial expressions are for me, but I am not discerning much of a personality from most of the characters in his manhwa. The pacing feels abrupt, the romance is blah, I don't really care much for the maid for her lack of involvement in the grand scheme of things.
Baldea is interesting to me for how actually tragic her backstory is and the subsequent result it had on her behaviour, but it seem like it's not going to get explored much and she is still just a tool to make the FL look good.

God, fuck the romance, I no longer give a shit about it! This dad is an absolute homie! He is working so hard just to make sure it’s safe for his daughter even though he acknowledges as well that it will be too late to bond with her.
The way he cries over his missed opportunities and the way he feels GUILTY for them even though it’s not his fault. HE JUST WANTS TO BE A DAD! HE’S SO SWEET AND DESERVES HAPPINESS!
