Plot and Intrigue is okay, but the romance is cornier than all the kdramas you’ve seen

As stated in the title, the plot and the intrigue is decent and engaging. The romance is so corny, it gives me cancer. This is the typical “love knows no bounds” trope or the ig couple relationship personified. At any point, you get tired from the cheesy lines and “couple moments”.
The characters are stereotypical good and competent + morally upright people that everyone wants to be. They kinda have no flaws, and I guess are Sues. Without character flaws, unique personality traits, and dreams, their romance and character development feels a bit empty. Not fully human.

The beginning, about the female lead's revenge at being lied to and cheated by her fiance and family members, is interesting. But when the Duke comes into the picture and she becomes more dependent of him, it slowly becomes meh and a typical member of the trope dude-is-so-in-love-with-the-chick-he-spoils-her-by-buying-anything-and-everyt hing-that-crosses-his-path-while-she-of-course-remains-oblivious-of-his-feeli ngs. The title refers to how the Duke is incapable of loving a woman, thus even if he marries, the woman will not be loved and will become a Duchess with the empty soul. But this man likes our female lead from the get go, so what is the point of that title even.

Love it

Despite the grammar issues of the translations, this is still one lovely manga. Love the relationship development bet. FL and ML. Love the couple so much. They both have something to bring to the table.

Great at the beginning then kinda went meh~then the scanlators drama suddenly appeared

With the countless isekai/2nd chance manga that's been popping up recently, a reader can't help but feel numb to these stories.. What I liked about The Duchess With An Empty Soul is
But the best part is
If you want a FL who's more cunning and is truly out for revenge I suggest reading the Villainess who reverses the hourglass. Much more interesting read.

how the FL got back at those who wronged her like a smart BAMF, that was cool without having the annoying crying oh woe is me attitude that these FL tend to be..but by the 18th chapter, it turned into a poor girl having a rich dude give her all the things because of, well one can guess, love?
Surely there's reason why the cold Duke is suddenly like smitten with her and showering her with gifts but I couldn't be bothered to continue anymore

how there's apparently scanlators drama for this manga that is crazily more entertaining than the story itself lol

I thank Duke Agentine for helping Ivona in both her old life and new life.
Also, I've read till chapter 55 and I think it's going pretty good so far.

Around chapter 40 or 30 something, Gasprick seems to almost be exposed and I look forward to it.

"Duke Agentine, will you marry me?", not "Duchess Agentine, will you marry me?

"Duchess Agentine, will you marry me?"
I think it's supposed to say "Duke Agentine, will you marry me?" , since the Duke has the last name Agentine, and she is the one that wan'ts to marry him (and isn't a Duchess in the first place).
