i really REALLY love the way that there was a literal system rigged against edith. that everyone had an actual voice in their head telling them how to feel about her, and how minor characters weren’t as effected as the main ones. how killeon looked into sorcery and witchcraft to find an answer to WHY and HOW his mind was being controlled like that.
its a lot different from the usual “everyone hates me no matter what bc im the villainess” where when the character tries to do good things or push people away, EVERYONE thinks they’re faking it or trying to get attention. especially when they continuously refuse to acknowledge their intentions.
this gives such a valid reason to why people have nonstop negative thoughts about edith. about how as the system loosens it’s control as edith continues to pass the trials and the way the characters start to realize they don’t actually hate her, and pay more attention to their surroundings

does anyone know how the cassette tapes exactly work? like, i understand they work as “save points” and that whoever enters one will then be part of the game, but why do they save repeatedly when they still retain their memories? it’s not like it instantly gives them access to the items they find either
i think it helps in them progressing the game/saving an ending which changes the next round. just a theory tho it’s confusing to me as well
I think how it works is the first time they use a cassette tape, if it doesn’t get ejected by the reset they keep their memories from then on cause they successfully made a save point in the game and became a “player”. Then it just works like a normal video game quicksaver
I think it does save items. If u don’t save, u’ll lose the items u got in the last round
i love how she actually looks like a man. not like the other manhwas where the fl pretends to be a man but is still half the size of everyone else
i wish they kept the glasses :( she looked so cute with them
i love how unashamed they are with intimacy. like i understand these are historical manhwas, and PDA is kind of taboo especially with all that chasity stuff, but it sometimes gets annoying when all characters do is blush when they brush hands. but i also love how they’re intimate without actually going all the way… like them kissing and ML ending up just hand feeding her or massaging her feet
camilla being so chill and rational is one of my favorite things about her
look. i really like this story. i really like the art and the characters… but what on earth is going on with this plot
