I'm a Villain, but I Saved the Female Lead

Description

I transmigrated into a novel as the villainess Rubelina, whose hopes of marrying the Crown Prince were dashed by the heroine Yvonne. I believed I could live happily as long as I stayed out of the love story between the heroine and the hero, Zilart. I lived my life without caring about them at all and as a result, the heroine and the hero became engaged without any trouble.

Thinking that my role was over, I was living peacefully when suddenly Yvonne came to visit me and blurted out:

"I want to break off my engagement with Prince Zilart!"

Um... in the novel, Rubelina is supposed to be the villainess, and Yvonne is supposed to be the heroine who lives happily ever after, isn't she...?

ch1-10 *Close to dropping*

This is straight up garbage, and not even enjoyable garbage. First up it has major issues art wise, in general fine but the scene compositions and poor storyboarding are super apparent.

I just wanna say this has potential and it's ruined completely:

The whole story makes no sense, in OG story Heroine and 1st Prince after some tribulations from the villainess and nobility have a happily ever after. In this timeline though Prince is abusive to the heroine for no reason and is trying to get with some rando woman. And no this isn't unreliable narrator as the OG story is from the Heroines perspective so for sure the story would have mentioned such evil/bad domestic abuse and hatred.
MC (who is villainess except not since she never did anything bad) is supposedly useless as a pawn for her father but we find out she is a mage.... Mages are so rare that just being a crap mage is still seen as a major event and her father who's super power hungry never tested his kids?
FMC and 2nd prince fall in love the moment they meet, I always hate this stupid trope. Whats worse is attached to this point is alot of misunderstandings both intentional and accidental are the root for all the drama and/or comedy. It's just infuriating to read characters not communicating when it makes no sense for them to be hiding things. Another alos is somehow FMC doesn't know who the 2nd prince is even though her family is as powerful as the royals and she read the OG story.
Lastly Going between chapters really feels like chapters inbetween them are missing, I can't count the times I thought I had accidently somehow gone forward 2 chapters to discover that infact I had not. This also applies to the transitioning to panels within chapters too, they keep missing things from the panels like for EG early on FMC looks like she has a fainting spell or a headache or a realisation then we watch the 2nd prince slice a leaf for some reason then he asks her if she's ok. I was so confused until I read the next panels and realised she got attacked and her hand was damaged. At no point before this point was there any evidence of something attacking her, just an alround art fail and that happens alot.
