ugh, dropped around ch. 90 and then read the last couple ch. (it ends how you think, happy ever after completely devoid of any feelings; like literally, all i got was that they're a thruple now except not a single one of them wants to be there) -the plot was interesting but i personally just did not like the mc; he's annoyingly unloyal to literally everyone but one dude, who does not seem to care about him (or maybe he does, idk he's written w/ v unclear motives and the author and i both dc about him except as a tool for the mc lol like.... he's had maybe 10 speaking lines) -there's an unfortunate dichotomy between mc being a slave and doing literally anything and everything to survive (god pls stop murdering and scheming for one second) and him being so fucking greedy for things to go exactly the way he wants, to the point that he's like "wah wah no matter what i want nadan and i to escape and live happily" and literally EVERYONE, EXPECIALLY NADAN is like "dude stop, nadan doesn't want it, figure out something else" but mc refuses and refuses until nadan is literally a pulp which like ??? you're so greedy that you supposedly HAVE TO BE with this guy, but you're maiming and killing him and don't rly care? (and not in a yandere way, like you genuinely don't even express that you care about nadan other than doing these things that he doesn't want that gets him hurt, and nadan has also not expressed any care for you yet so...) -i think if the story were about suu and nadan this plot point might be ok, but it's literally not. nadan is a side character with so few lines and appearances that we don't even know how he feels about suu. maybe he secretly likes being tortured and permanently disabled for suu, who knows? we don't. -sahara the dragon is an interesting half-child half-ancient being that has the wisdom of uh the child... lol but he's fine but also relatively powerless except for when he mass murders all the servants all the time -and jin suryeon is supposedly "evil and bad" according to just about everyone and yeah idrk what's going on with his character b/c he's soooo ambitious for the throne that he's trying to make this whole dragon thing work, yet he hates the country, hates the imperial palace, cursed the dragon, and killed his mom by proxy? i'm assuming this will be explained later but jesus at 90 ch. in and none of the characters have redeeming qualities other than "they're doing what they need to do, incl. shitty stuff, actually mostly acting shitty, to survive" like... what actually is there left? -any "romance" is suu with his onesided... something for nadan, sahara needing suu to eat, and suryeon needing suu so sahara can eat. feelings where? nowhere.

cute family story -isekai'd girl goes into body of a young orphan; the world is from a novel she read but her character wasn't in it or was like an npc lol -she's abused by the orphanage staff -the duke was swayed by his doting father friend to have a kid, but he is completely uninterested in marriage so he decides to adopt -except his affect is terrifying so he just scares all the children -mc leona isn't scared of him (b/c she's mentally a 20-smth lol) and gets adopted and named as his heir -except she looks just like him and ends up having the tiger fangs, a unique family mana/aura-type trait -they think she's prob the daughter of the duke's cousin, who eloped with her lover when she was young (they thought she died in a carriage accident but the body was never found) -leo gets lessons in history and etiquette (rip the first rude-ass etiquette teacher) and grows closer w/ her dad -she makes some little friends too

ugh dropped at ch. 12 (a new record) -so basically a terribly written trauma dump for the ml (which feels v cheap and poorly done; it's just trauma after trauma all for the sake of going "yup he's a serial murderer, but it's ok b/c you saw all the trauma he went through!") -mc is reeeeally awfully written. completely devoid of any character, irl and in the isekai novel, besides crying over this villain. yes, even irl that's literally all she did. like, you didn't even bother to give her a backstory or a single personality trait???? she doesn't have fam/friends/a life that she cares about, in EITHER world?! only this ml, which she knows to be fictional? as in not real? and she became obsessed with this dude after reading a poorly written romance novel where he's a side character?? girl touch grass holy shit. -mc's frustratingly passive so she just... doesn't talk?? has not explained a single thing to anyone?? and she doesn't have a personality at all so like... what is she expecting the ml to get from her? "i'm the only one who can save him! i have to save him! except i can't save him b/c i have this crest that determines my soulmate and according to my daddy who MURDERED THIS DUDE'S PARENTS our cresties don't match :( and there's literally NO WAY i could help him just as a fellow human since our crests don't match :( so i'm going to lie and uh literally run to him in the middle of the night like a lunatic and demand he stays by my side at all times while giving him no explanation and just expecting that everyone will be ok w/ that." :he ONLY lines mc has had so far are "don't go" x 50. literally. we get it, he can't leave you (according to you). WHY? even the ml is like "why tf am i doing this?" except then ofc the writing is awful so he's like "i don't know, but i feel compelled" yeah you don't know you idiot b/c there's literally no reason any person would listen to her and you two just met 1 day ago for 20 min.
