  • I have been super busy (and on vacation) and fallen behind on a lot of things. I did want to make a post with a couple that I have managed to keep up with though:

    The past couple chapters have been really good. They have focused only on our main couple and it's been sweet as can be. Sometimes I feel like series like this one can get too distracted with all the interesting side characters it has, but the past few chapters have really brought the focus back in a satisfying way.

    I have been reading this one for a long time and it has consistently been good. However, the past batch of chapters has been really good. If you have ever wanted to see how a manga couple deals with life throwing shit at them and trying to plan for life after school amidst it all, this is a good depiction of it. There are lots of chapters, but they are each only ~4-6 pages, so it goes quick.

    I love how stupid and silly this series is. I was happy to read that ridiculous story about two girls that are infatuated with the same guy. However, it recently got pretty real and I have loved how it pivoted so seamlessly into serious feelings territory, but at the same time has kept its absurd sense of humor.

    So, I just caught up with this series and it continues to impress. For being the author's first non-H work, the story in this series has been great. There are some great storylines going on involving some great characters. Looking forward to more.

  • I'm back on the villainess train, this time with two titles I found completely at random - both being decent finds too.

    • Kill the Villainess

    I initially thought it will be a less interesting version of Villains Are Destined to Die, it turned out to be probably the most sombre (without being edgy) villainess themed series I've wrote about here so far.
    The premise is nothing original: woman is pulled into the body of a villainess from a book and has to die to go back to real world. Guess what? She tried. Multiple times. Before the story even began.
    There's no easy way out and she has to play the part of a bad guy according to the original novel, whether she likes it or not.

    It's a pretty solid choice if you're in a mood for a less quirky story in this genre.

    • Behold the True Villainess

    A complete whiplash of emotions when paired with the first one as this is a pure comedy.

    This one is also an isekai story but here the soft and timid noble girl gets taken over by someone who doesn't let herself get pushed around by anyone. She bails from a temple she was sent to, stirs trouble, gets people addicted to modernised (well, properly spiced) cuisine and spreads real world slang among the nobles (often misrepresenting what it actually means).

    It's silly, it's light-hearted and it's full of pretty good jokes (visual or otherwise).

  • It's a webtoon so probably heretical to mention it here. But please read "Love advice from the great Duke of hell"

    I discovered it like 2 hours ago and am now 60 chapters deep and it gets genuine laughs out of me, frequently.
