I sorta love how lost and confused the plot makes me feel. Every time the manga makes fun of idiots who are on the outs with no concept of what the madararui are talking about makes me laugh. (like the first time when Kunimasa tells Norio something outrageous in the class and every normie just ignores the situation and goes about their day)

I feel like this story and characters aren't bad but the plot of vengeful father turned tsundere father has been done before. ALSO... WHY EVEN BOTHER MENTIONING SHE WAS AN ISEKAI.... like this was the fastest plot point to mention only to... never be mentioned again! LOL

Honestly the isekai is literally just to make the misunderstanding worse... Without those scenes of her father throwing her in the shadow room, she'd be significantly less scared of him. Which just makes it even more annoying that he was just protecting her by putting her somewhere nobody but the king and prince have access to and he just never bothered to explain that... Or tell her the prince is coming to rescue her soon so just hang on... I'm a little sick of it tbh

Basically, she was reincarnated as Juvel. However, she had read the novel about her in her previous life. So, she knew that in the future, her father will send her to prison and Mikhael will hook up with someone else. Upon receiving her past life memories, she decided to not meet her end just like the novel and end things up with Mikhael. And she decided to not trust her father ( hence, all the misunderstanding).....
Spoiler:
But actually, the things in the novel already happened and her father actually beg goddess to reverse time to save Juvel.

im saying the perception and portrayal of the father is pretty cliche. There's already a few stories of a father who seeming could careless about the daughter and the daughter in turn has to act super cutesy just because she believes her life is at stake and then it consequently makes the father go insane for more of her cuteness.

Im mostly saying that the story could've just not been an isekai and just had her just return herself. I mean, the girl is still using the original girls memories so.... *shrug*. Plus, she'd still know when she would die, so having a random isekai girl replace her doesn't make a difference.
Usually the purpose of the isekai is either to have op powers (which I hate personally) or have knowledge from the book the character is in and far surpasses what the original body would know.

I legit had to go look up to make sure I wasn't crazy... so Chapter two, she states she "transmigrated" as Juvelia. Juvelia existed as a character in a book with her own characteristics. I do understand the word play is a bit... vague because it says she "remembered her past life 2 years into her relationship"
considering the spoilers I think the process went as such:
- OG Juvelia dies -> her soul passes -> her dad rewinds her time -> Nameless girl's soul transmigrates into Juvelia -> she remembers her past life

From what I understood, the word transmigrated was wrongly put there. Because she said she remembered.
Usually transmigrated person will refer to the original body as the third person. But she never did that. And usually, whenever happened, she will can complain to her 'original body' like, "why on earth you did that Juvel?!" or "Wow, Juvel's father looks really young" or something... And it will always be "when I woke up, I was in Juvel's body"
All her monologue is all referring to herself and her past silly action. So yeah ..I think the word transmigrated was wrongly put there.
And because I had read the novel before reading this webtoon . Haha
And the novel never mention about transmigrated.

I haven't read the novel, but it's clear it's still an isekai, they mention Juvelia being the villain of the story that the nameless girl read. Even if the light novel had zero details about the story involving transmigration, this manhwa is clearly an "isekai".
I couldn't say for sure if the base story truly is an isekai because I only know the manhwa version, BUT it's also entirely possible the manhwa version was adapted to be an isekai... just to be labeled among the other isekais. It would clear up a bit of the inconsistencies I had with this story.
Regardless, I just read this kinds of stories as dirty pleasure books. They're low effort thinking books... or at least just low enough that I'll skim past inconsistencies. If it builds up too many I'd just drop it, because these stories are a dime a dozen. They pop up like weeds and the majority of the difference is just the art.

I'm all for giving antagonists a proper backstory... but it feels too late. If they had that as their intention the whole time, a bit more foreshadowing for it would've been more appropriate than to just make it clear he's also traumatized by his father. (PS that father is a bitch for tossing away one son and playing favorites over n over)

I wasn't sure if this was the same author for On or Off or if it's a case of a similar named artist... It's totally the same if you look at the eyes. and the daddy totally has Kang vibes lol

yea, I can still see hints of the style, but it is interesting to see manga style after seeing the webtoon style. I was always wondering how interesting the screentone was in the webcomic, so it makes sense that the author worked with manga previously since there's tons of screentone being used for mangas

This reminds me of Chongtak, if you read "Coffin Jackson" (seinen) before reading "On Doorstep" or "Never Good Enough" you can see similarities in the style but DAMN both Chongtak and A1 are so much better in Korean webtoon and full colored, you can really see their personalities in the drawing, it's gorgeous
Is there a trend with cheating now?
I've noticed a trend with affairs in recent mangas turned animes especially revolving around fantasy worlds. This is the 2nd manga i've some across this week with cheating involved, the first was with a hero who kicks a Main character out of his party, steals his gf by controlling her as well as the other party members who are girls. Then with no guys in the party he proceeds to bang non stop.
There's the manga turned anime where the father of the main character cheats on his wife with the maid. Not to mention, Redo of Healer is probably the worst case of a sexually charged fantasy story.
agreed. There is potential, but the cheating downgrades everything. Honestly, i sometimes wonder why anime studios think it is a great idea to animate these type of stories.
I think I heard about the first one.idk it's name but I remember the criticism that the gf was innocent and the mC didn't really care after he learned the truth. Honestly I'm interested in it mainly for the poor gf.
As for cheating, tbh I havent seen it. There is a vengeance trope where the mc was horribly wronged and cheating falls under it. So rather than it being new it is a new take on the established vengeance trope. Unless the MC is the cheater, whi h is news to me.
Yes! I fucking hate the 'fanservice'. All it does is weakens the story and makes me ashamed to like anime/manga.
