I browse the story to add it on my list as either historical fantasy or not. I skim and read through from chapters 3-4 and thoroughly enjoy it! So I try to read it from start but got super confused and disappointed. I mean (aside from underaranding based on the summary of the story) the 1st chapter lacks background for the main character and even the starting point of the story left me confused.
Why would the MC take criticism from nobody?! (They are not even introduced properly) and even the 'nobodies' got to report to MC the important engagement annulment?! Do the royalties not have any proper messenger to do it or as the usual troupe goes, the fiancé himself to tell the MC about the breaking up of their engagement?! (Even the king's verdict was being mentioned by her father, but it was more tolerable than the 1st announcement of news MC heard)
What's seems more dumb for me is the repeating mentioning of Charlotte on chapter 1 without proper introduction or background (only a tiny image of her while she's being mentioned, which is ok but at least mention who she is, not only her name!)
Secondly, the MC don't even have proper introduction that I have to guess which aristocrat title are they since they only keep mentioning the Count (title of husband to be married into) not their own, not even in chapter 1 it was mentioned, only the family name, which doesn't make any sense to grasp the whole picture on aristocratic title they own by just mentioning their noble house title 'noblest of the noble family'. I mean what can you get by mentioning only family name + noblest of the noble aristocratic family as introduction to MC's family? How can you know their noble title through that info? Because we as readers could somehow grasp the circumstances when the noble titles are mentioned (especially for those close to royal family titles.. their standards, positions, point of view varies for each noble title).
I hope the story will still improve aside from the fatal flaws mentioned (or I didn't mention since it was trivial for me).
Are the latest 3 chapters official translation release? Or just double posting of already translated chapters due to change in translating group?

There are many things left hanging （/TДT)/ I hope at least they showed Aoi's mom at the end even if there's no time skip..
Hoping for a pro contract or something that will makes us feel relieved that Aoi was able to gave back all his mother's hard work for raising him and make her felt proud.
I really hope there will either be a sequel or at least the continuation of Brotherfoot (Aoi's brother Shun's story).
On the other note, the author's other work Fermat no Ryouri will have anime this upcoming summer anime season and Ao Ashi anime season 2 will be release on 2026 (approximately) based on the announcement. Let's continue to support the author's work for now (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
