If Cale were a female character, he as a she would unintentionally made many dumb male characters fall in love with him and evil jealous bitches would be just keep targeting him... I also praise Cale for not creating his own harem with big boobs "accidently".
The only female isekai character so far I know of who doesn't have to deal or accept the cliche bullshit is Melissa + Yona from "Beware of the Villainess".
Correct me, if I am wrong but Melissa and Cale are probably the only MC characters in their genre who realy like to keep a low profile and doesn't give a damn about popularity, reputation, societal norms or the opinions of others.
Many transmigrators or isekai heroes say that they don't care what others think of them and do whatever they want. But at the end they still care about their image, fantasy rules for whatever plot reasons...
I am all ears, if you can name me protagonists who are not bound by their image, etiquettes or mannerism based on a conservative classist society.
Maybe "Potion Tanomi de Ikinobimasu!" and
"The Monster Duchess and Contract Princess"
Samee I like that this isnt romance too hahaha got tired of those. But I bet it was easier for Cale cause the title "trash" that's always attached to him makes it easier for him to do what he wants and he isnt the type that goes omg I die if I continue to be a jerk so I must change and become a saint. He still stuck to what he really want to be but just avoided the situations that would lead him to get beat up or die.
honestly tho, im glad the author decided not to add romance so we focus on cale and his king shit.
makes me think abt if i ever transmigrated, id want to transmigrate as a dude so i wouldnt have to deal with that cliche romance shit
Fuck yeah. Mellissa is bae
I want a manga where the person transmigrates and is like "fuck no, not doing. A harem" and like he saves a slave and the slaves like "Master" and he immediately gets rid of her at first opportunity, meets a tsundere girl and he shuts her down before she finishes speaking and makes an effort to never see her again, loli shows up and this NOT pervert o's like wtf where r Ur parents? And drops with a couple he knows who always wanted a kid, and so on
Fuck big boobed harems
Fff trashero. But, the mc is a terrible person
dude same i just want a manhwa where the mc (male or female) just avoids the harem as much as possible and does their own thing
ME too
So many mangas, manwahs and manhuas have already used these toxic tropes and male power fantasy plot...
I really like that gender fluid androgynous red haired^^
He has such a cool badass attitute^^
I think that MC/ML is probably the first scheming op blonde prince that I ve ever liked and find it very endearing.
Normally I would hate MLs like him but there is sth about him that makes him very redeemable.
Even though he displays some traits like the asshole crown princes/MLs from other isekai novels, what makes him so different than the others who uses their superiority to bully and saving the FL?
You probably read already other Isekai Stories about Villainess, Maids or Extras where the FL/MC is always usually patronized/bothered/mistreated by a cruel cold bored immature arrogant tsundere prince.
I think its the fact that he respects his lover (the mc) and doesn't curb her freedom by being overly possessive. He understands she needs her time and forcely make her spend time with him.
^doesn't
It's coz this ml is more of like *I know u love me and i'll make a way for u to do so freely* and not like *u should love me coz i love u*
I dunno if u get my point or I made it more complicated
Maybe it's because we got to see his pov and because he actually changed with "the power of love". Like, most of these badass edgelord tsundere princes/kings/whatever say shit like "uwu you changed me" but still have abusive behaviors to other people apart from the mc, however this guy has actually gotten better, more considerate of his friends, and even capable of recognizing his mistakes from the game's other routes. He actually has developed as a character from when they were kids, what should be obvious, of course, but in stories like these it's somehow rare.
For me i think it's because we read it from his pov, so that we know what he's thinking exactly. We know why he act like that, we know all his thoughts about the fl
I think I really get it. So he is very considerate despite very cunning calculating.
Reminds me a little kinda of Cale The Trash Count ;)
VERY GOOD PLUS POINTS!
Is this a webtoon? What's the title on mangago
Oh is it the Trash of the count's family? Is it good? I rarely read story where the mc is male
Yeah it is. The MC is not a typical dark or bright energic dramatic muscular shounen hero. And so far I haven't seen any sexualized female characters in there.
You should try "Skeleton Soldier Couldn't Protect the Dungeon" because the MC is very very unusual and the female characters are quite strong and not overly sexualized. They wear a lots of pants ^^
Om thank youu. I only read that kind of webtoon too like solo levelling, leveling up by only eating etc. I hate male main character with big boobs girls
I also dislike Stories that is dominated by Otakus, Harems, Toxic Masculinity and very oversexualized gendered characters.
I was actually hoping that these two would be complete strangers and not early childhood acquaintances...
same, I hope he falls in love with the current her rather than the former mc
The Girl Next Door Trope
But most other characters in this stories are quite pathetic stupid, if you ask me.
I am so glad that the blond half-brother is now targeted by the Ice Magician ^^
lmaoooo you make it sound like bullying
Lets call it poetic Fairytale Justice
Poetic fairytale justice LMAO, I’m going to use this from now on.
That webtoon/manwah kinda reminds me of Dungeon Meshi.
Awkward insane resourceful MC likes to cook monsters from the dungeon and he is a very unlikey hero....
I wouldn't be surprised it was inspired by this manga.
Combined with some elements from BOFURI - MC became literally the glitch.
Everytime the skeleton MC dies and loses his close allies my heart breaks!
When will he finally becomes the overlord who can protect his subjects especially Rena...
Turns out ML loved FL but couldn't because of his inferior complex + sad origin and due to misunderstandings he had every right to mistreat her...
How many times have you heard that plot before about a very stupid emo ML with usually dark hair who can't even communicate with the dumb MC???????

It seems to me that he is living the life of a prisoner or s*ave and heres why
He cannot leave his house (inner palace) without someone supervising him: Prisoner lifestyle FTW
When he works he always has someone supervising him (the advisor) : Yeah right, some relationships goals right here lol...
Every time he introduces himself he has to say his masters name (Aura) : Some bullsh*t reason that he cannot have his own ideas because some nobles might want him as king... So what, if you trust him you shouldnt care that he has nobles backing him because you know that he wouldnt do anything. But well, that is if you trust him..
He cannot befriend nobles for fear of helping them (Princess Bona) : This is already borderline offensive. Aura, his “wife” (more like his master), actually controls his interactions with people because he can share important knowledge from Earth by mistake. I mean, the knowledge isnt even hers and she is reprimanding him for helping others? WTF he is an idividual and he can share his ideas with hoever he wants. You can ask him not to do it, but, in the end, its his own decision! He is not your s*ave!
He cannot have political aspirations: Same reason as 4
He cannot speak with his son or sleep with him: Males older than 5 cannot sleep in the inner palace and he cannot get out so...
He is forced to attend parties: You dont want to attend? Well to bad your wife is the Queen and she orders you to appear. What can you do?
He has to “perform” during all his life as instructed when he is out of the cell (inner palace) : He has to work/attend parties because, if not, a rumour that his “wife” is controlling him might spread. BUT! He always has to say and preach that he is following ordres every f*cking time because same reason as 4. The fact that by doing this performance he is already being controlled is ignlred I guess...
All his “achivements” are stolen by his “wife”: same reason as 4
SPOILER He is forced to take a concubine: Well his only “selfish” request (which is actually not that f*cking selfish to start of, I mean, you can actually f*cking wait a generation for the sons to spread the blood or encourage marriges between branch houses like Guillen+Marquez) during every single volume gets completly disregarded and the “wife” actually sold him in front of his face for (quote) “iron” and “ships” to someone he is not actracted to while he is (quote) “pale and barring his teeths”. Then proceeds to say that (quote) “I am the queen (master) and you are only part of the royal family (which has to obey/s*ave) ”. Yeah who cares about his consent when you are the master right? Hahaha nothing to do I guess... If the MC was a girl and a king was forcing her to marry someone she doesnt want for benefits this novel would hace a shitty score...
[collapse]
Well the spoiler ended kinda like a rant haha
The concept that this novel presents (transmigration to marry a queen) was very good and intersting but the delivery could have been soo much better...
To start off, the MC has zero charm as a protagonist... No ambition, no goals, no personality, he is a High level Beta and a Yes-man who would do anything for his “wife” because “he fell in love with her at first sight”. Yeah, absolutely no development, it just kinda happened. Destroy your reputation? No problem! Everyone thinks you are a fool? Done! No friends or relationships? Why do you need something like that when you have a “wife” who only needs you bloodline?
If I had to describe the MC with a phrase it would be: Like a girl in a chinese harem novel with more exposure. No personal goals, no personality, no ambitions, fell in love just cause, accepts everything and no relationships besides FL.
The political part of the novel is also not that interesting. Theres not really a crisis or anything to solve, just random everyday happenings that are nor relevant no important and would be solved regardless. The MC only contributions so far are saying that he is henchmen of the Queen and talking to ambassadors from other countries... Really dissapointing. Everything else is random talking and etiquette wich is plain boring.
The romance, if it can be called so, is extremely onesided and unhealthy. The queen controls everything in the relationships and actively uses the MC as political change and a covenient tool. She even says that the MC is a “rapturial raptor that only moves in the direction she points”. This completely kills the romance as it gives the impression that she doesnt care that much about him. She actually knows it and self-reflects about it and tries to solve it by asking about the MC wishes. Then she says that she cannot grant nearly all of normal and f*cking easy wishes. In the end, the MC 10 or so petitions are reduced to having free time and bath time lol.... Even the objective 3rd person who knows whats happening (the advisor) says that she is treating him like a (quote) “pawn” and she even agrees with him lmao. The wife actually thinks that the MC SHOULD be angry with her but the MC just sucks everything up and becomes a pinnacle of Betanism UP TO VOLUME 7 HE HAS NEVER SAID NO TO THE WIFE even if he doesnt want. The wife though says no everytime even for little things lol
I had expectations that she will eventually stop treating the MC like an special bloodbag and a political tool and start considering him more like and individual with whom she maintains a same stand relationship and has his own goals (not working and no concubine) and moral code but its more like master-servant even in volume 7
U deserve the world for explaining all of this♡
Jesus dude breathe
I read the novel around a year and a half ago. I stopped around volume 5 I think :/. The story was very slow paced with a lot of exposition/political shit O.o I can't believe i made it that far but I was still hoping for the MC to stand up for himself more(Like the contract arc). He's not living a carefree life since he was naive that he would still need to perform his duties. That review from NU+spoiler has me agreeing that the MC is high class prisoner. Honestly he should've just stayed in JP I don't think his great-great-great-great grandparents wanted that for their descendants. Lol They ran away from that world for a reason.
His lust for her when they first met clouded his common sense, heck the Queen even knows it herself just look at what she says in chapter 2 lol. GOT HIM!
