Periodttt's manga / #Read when complete(151)

Ch 16, kinda average. Art is mediocre and idk story didnt hook me too much, so I guess we’ll just wait on it

Ch 23, it’s started off good but then the pacing of the story became weird and the characterization of the characters is so inconsistent. Tbh I’m just interested to see the poor prince’s reaction when he realizes that she doesn’t like him like that and she’s just loyal as a night, I want to see his reaction it’d be a shame if she stared liking him before hand tho bc I want to see that flustered reaction. I was excited to see a Manhwa with supposedly a boss FL and male wife ML but idk how I feel about this. And tbh the 2nd ML syndrome is gonna hit me hard bc that blondie was always on her side in all her lives but she was always too focused on protecting the ML to notice him

Ch 23, this premise seems really interesting, double Genderbender where the “guy/Duke” is actually a girl and the “girl/princess” is actually a guy…they both play into their usual gender roles so perfectly thought that sometimes I forget crystal is really a guy and the Duke is a girl. I was intrigued to see where this goes as I really wanted to see both leads finally go back to being true to their original gender….but in some spoilers it made it seem like they just ended up living as their fake gender which is kinda disppointing. Since I wanted to see Crystal as a man and the Duke as a girl.

Ch 29, idk mannn this is a rough read. The romance feels really weird since they met when he was 11 and she practically raised him as a guardian. Like imagine…she picked tutors for her husband….like bro that’s something a parent would do for their kid. And you did that for your husband. And the ML acts like a bratty child too. Sure he cares for her more than anymore else, but even as an adult he’s not someone she can depend on. Half of this story is him just crying, whining, throwing tantrums and running to her. The other half is him lamenting that he’s weak and can’t protect her…all while being the reason she’s in danger half the time. Like man he feels no different from his child self. He’s still immature, weak and not capable. And she fell for him…? Like I get she only fell for him bc he was the only one who really cares about her but like damn sis you saw him as a whole child. And on his end he only felll in love with her bc timing, she just happened to be the first one to ever be nice to him. So here we go. Even their first night scene had me like…ew…idk man. Like I’m intrigued to know more about the plot like who is the evil master mind behind everything…but it does kinda annoy me how forgiving she was for someone who betrayed her, so rn I’m still thinking that she might be kind to this other betrayed too, idk man but I hope have high hopes for this story

Ch 21, this one of those stories that has an interesting plot concept but the execution is terrible. The plot concept seems like it could’ve been such an interesting story but the flow of the story falls flat. The pacing is choppy and I struggle to follow whats happening at times. Well this is disappointing to say the least

Ch 24, another cliche one but instead of being really good it just feels average like the author was just trying to speed run checking off all the cliches a story like this should have. Like where is the plot building? I was excited to see girlepop take revenge but she took revenge on like ch 2??? Like it was way too fast. Didn’t even give me a chance to hate the villains that much, and made the revenge seems so easy to get. And the cover made it seem like this story was gonna be a reverse harem but I only see one ML in sight, it’s probably the blond prince. So eh I dunno, it’s not a bad story, admist being really fast paced, but it disappointed me bc I had higher expectations for it

Ch 37, ehhh it was alright, translation is off but it’s still kinda readable. I guess I’m moreso disappointed bc while the story is cliche and usually I don’t hate cliches, the FL and ML kinda lack substance for me. The FL is your typical girlboss FL, who shows no weakness or anything….idk just makes her seem so perfect and cookie cutter what you think a badass FL should be, but other than that girlie has no personality. On the other hand the ML, supposedly the white haired guy, got all the personality but it’s a personality that pretty annoying. Yes he’s a man who can think for himself but he’s still the type to be obsessed with the FL. But He also comes off as manipulative and cocky in a sleazy way, I just don't know. Ugh, his attitude reminds me of a gaslighting, narcissistic boyfriend. Even their convos don’t really seem too romantic or loving, it’s just him saying “be mine” and then just a both of word games back and forth to each other while each side tries to get the upper hand. Like it doesn’t feel like Romantic chemistry but more like political word battling. On the other hand, I much prefer the other two MLs. Either one of them I feel would be a better ML, either her tan loyal knight or the 2nd prince. Those two seem to be so devoted to her and since they both share similar personality types where they act cute in front of her and do whatever she tells them, I feel like that would mesh better with her personality. Every girlboss FL needs a male wife, not a alpha male ML who’s cocky himself…I mean actually I wouldn’t mind that combo either but idk why the pairing with the white haired ML just feels so ick in this story. I’m much more intrigued by tye 2nd prince tbh bc from the few scenes he showed up in, he seems to be the type to act cute in front of the person he likes but is secretly cunning. And I love those two faced MLs. So really a c shame she chose the other ML, whereas the other two guys were so much better

Ch 12, idk kinda bored atm, kinda basic maybe Ik come back to it

Ch 15, this story is really weird like it fits all the checkboxes of what I should supposedly like in a story like a stoic emotionless FL and a Yandere obsessed ML…but idk why the story just feels flat. Like no suspense kinda like the story is just…happening…ig I’ll wait on this story

Ch 31 (https://ascalonscans.com/manga/first-time-as-an-adored-youngest-child/) just another cute story of a doting family, and it’s cute and all but idk I can’t help but feel sad and annoyed for the pink haired sister, she’s so sweet and cute to everyone but it seems All the attention and affection is on the FL the youngest and Ik it’s well deserved bc she suffered for 99 lives before she got to this one good one…but still i don’t understand why the blondie boy is/was so mean to the sister when she was so nice to him and wanted to get along with him..like he just kept dubbing her and then they resolved it by him finally agreeing to call her by the nickname she wanted to him to call her by…but like that wasn’t even the issue, the issue was you kept dubbing her for no reason at all. Idk so he still gives me the ick that he like chases after the youngest FL while the pink hair sister is so nice to him but he can’t be bothered by her, like it makes me not like him much. But whatever I’m just here for the cute doting family …damn I’m so disappointed after reading spoilers like Ik the blondie was gonna be the ML for the FL but damn, it’s so weird bc he was raised like a brother to her and he even asked her for her to view him like her older brother…so strange. And it so strange he latched on to her so easily when she was a baby like he had no reason to like her while he actively avoided the nice pink haired sister, like it just makes no sense to me. I guess maybe just the perks of being a baby so ppl automatically love you which is great but for a child who lost his parents and felt alone wouldn’t it make more sense for him to like the pink haired sister bc she always extended her arms open to welcome him. But somehow he only chose to get along with the older brother and the FL youngest, like makes no sense to me. So eh I can’t like him
