i understand why the princess must go to such lengths. it sucks since we can see the prince clearly does not want to get in his sister's way, he only wants to live, but for the princess to accomplish her goals and gain real respect, she must show she is the only possible heir to even get a foot in the door. it's ruthless and i would never be able to do it, but i can respect her devotion to her goals
i wonder who the true ml is for this...
yeah, and he makes probably the most sense but my issue is that both the "ml" characters (ahin included) are leaders of their respective nations, but ria is the same. she can't become the next leader if she marries either one of them, and they likely wouldn't leave their own leadership positions for her. it just spells out that someone is gonna have to give up something, and i'm afraid it's gonna be ria sacrificing her position to become queen elsewhere











i'm not joking when i say this is the best manga i've ever read. the respect between the main characters, the relationship building, how each chapter is connected but has a single story captured within each without leaving cliffhangers and turmoil between characters, the proper amount of realism in outside perspectives, and the genuine love that formed and only became better as it changed and remained. i am almost saddened by the fact i'll probably never read something as good as this. the structure of the story is perfectly paced, the timing is never too fast or too slow. i cannot get over how good this story is. properly wholesome, while also displaying the desires of the characters and how they overcame each challenge that life offered them (which i will admit is quite hopeful since reality cannot always be so kind, but as someone who reads for happy endings, this was perfect), this story does what many wish to accomplish in only one volume, but without the confusion and angst that other one volumed manga tend to follow. if i were to describe the story, i could only say: blissful, true found love.
