I liked that the story actually lived up to the title, because even though it's ultimately for the greater good, Sasha and her companions *did* act like the antagonists by setting up the crown prince and ultimately killing him. The crown prince was only guilty of being an incompetent and stupid cheater. Since he was meant to be the ML in the "original story," he was presumably redeemable under the right circumstances. Arth and Rebecca just straight up said "to hell with redemption" and offed him to avoid future trouble. I have mixed feelings about that, but like I said, it at least lives up to the title.
Lots of great and enjoyable elements. Far from your typical rofan story, and I actually love how ambiguous FL's relationship is with the empress. I'm choosing to look at it as a bisexual love triangle with the ML, though it sucks the empess is married, and the other yuri coded relationship involves the real villainess. Speaking of the villainess, she actually deserves the title here. She's what every other caricature of a villainess wishes they could be. I just wish the story ended after her defeat like it was supposed to, but I guess this last arc is intended to show the empress's character growth so FL could be "free" to live her own life? ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭








Girl, you guys are literally identical, so maybe don't?
