Body switching royals is like No Doubt In Us but the characters here are more dramatic in terms of viciousness of a male lead and what seems to be "useless" female lead.
These are some messed up things that are in the stories this mangaka writes. Reality and manga are two different things but there is a line. not to mention this manga was another one that was extremely shitted on when it wasn't even on hiatus yet. the reader comments were fierce and not at all in favor of the female lead. lol. that's all i wanted to say.
honestly i get that ibelin is her main source of entertainment but Latte is our main source of entertainment. I'm hoping we get more scenes with Arwin and more progress too
I don't know what that "cliff hanger" meant at the end of the side story. What is this bomb? is it something about his feelings? idk, can't even really predict where this story will go. It's never been a normal shoujo and combined with the length, foreshadowing has become more difficult to detect.
at the speed that this author writes this story, the 'bomb' will likely be nothing and the cliff hanger will be some silly nonsense that had us all hyped and will be total let down... that is how it always works, figure it will be at least another year before we get the full reason and probably another misunderstanding to go along with it
yeah I'm not even bothering to read into it actually which I realized I didn't mention in my original comment lol. the length and time it takes for progress makes any foreshadowing impossible.
totally, i read now because of the years i have invested in this manga, i have no illusions or hold out any hope for it to actually go anywhere anytime soon... this author just enjoys kicking us in shins by dribbling out the story line till most of us will be old and grey
too bad the company can't light a fire under Nakamura's ass by forcefully switching her back to bimonthly. she definitely a lot of authority as a senior in the field.
Sadly because of that same authority she can pretty well do at her own pace. Ah well, either we 'pee or get off the pot' as the saying goes. Since most of us have hung in there til now, the long haul seems to be the only way to go...
yeah it's a sunk cost that i'm just gonna keep going with
The primary story of Philippa and Colin is heartbreaking. Something caused him to constantly die at a young age and constantly testing Philippa's heart and kindness towards humanity until she could take it no more. It's so sad. I had a feeling she was the Demon Lord but to think she'd end the vicious cycle by choosing death.
If I was her I’d choose death too. To constantly see someone I love being constantly killed by incidental deaths, then see him die because the Nazis didn’t like him helping his factory worker,
I wouldn’t want to see that anymore
p.s itd also drive me insane
p.S.S she destroyed 4 worlds before the 5th, where they met, she probably wanted this whole charade to stop too, considering she loved humans a lot in the past
I like it so far. I only hope with all the baggage so far, the author doesn't think of adding a rivalry somewhere to this mix. I'd hate for any triangles. this story doesn't need that. It's a nice meeting of two people who become interested in each other and happen to have some deep fears.
Tragedy tag + doomed summary = brace yourself for drama, crazy frustrating political conspiracies and schemes. Oh and this is set in Joseon. Even better, we'll have petty inner court drama too. Prologue is too soon to say though I say it's grabbed some intrigue for now especially since I was surprised it is set in Joseon (i'm getting used to seeing a bunch of stories set in a fictional medieval western world). I like a good historical fiction so time will tell.
Yes! I hope somebody would pick this up.
Do you have other recommendations like this (set in Korean setting) that are not kdramas? I think this is a first for me as Chinese ones are plenty.
There are quite a few out there actually, but they stay untranslated. Unless the work got a kdrama adaptation, they don't typically receive much attention. Not many groups want to take on this type of genre either for whatever reason (lack of interest, maybe?)... One example is "Before the footprint melts" that got abandoned after only 4 chapters in. But you can also check out Yeonmo, which has a similar imperial setting, but the story is more shoujo & it's actually from a manhwa book. At least that one got translated to the end...
there are chinese aplenty and medieval west as well. Unfortunately sageuk is few and far between. Not sure if it's because of the lack of the required skillset or the lack of supply. unfortunately I can't help with the recommendation even though I wish I could; hence my surprise this is joseon. and agree w/ Yuki, Yeonmo is the only one I could honestly recommend off the top of my head. Mostly i've only seen manhwas, not webtoons.
Nah I don't like shoujo that much (I dark/ serious stuff) but thanks anyway for the reply. Such a pity cuz I want to know Korean historical setting even if they're novels!
I have to search sageuk in order to know what you're talking about lol. But speaking of that, I encountered some of them and there's even a BL one (can't remember them though)!
The male MC reminds me of Lee Jong Suk lol~ there are times when he really looks like him and others where the male MC has a stronger jaw line. Plus with W, we actually saw what a webtoon version of LJS could look like. btw chapter 10's pages are messed up.
all it took for me to click on this to check out was reading "The brave princess attacks the sexy king?" lol and the princess is as badass as this one line made it seem. I look forward to her intellect and tactical moves as she navigates the political and scheming waters of the royal palace in this foreign land.
Bina is so brilliant and intelligent. Damn she could have gone places in the modern world but wow here she is as the regal empress and deserves every bit of it. Her handling. Wow. Great chapters 106/107.
