It honestly pains me to make this review, because this was pretty much my very first korean isekai and I genuinely loved and enjoyed reading it while it was fresh. The characters while being very 2Dimensional at first, grew on to me as the time went by. It was pretty wholesome and satisfying seeing the main character's family grow fond of her and protect her, when they were initially hostile towards women, her included.
However, the wholesome parts of the series weren't enough to cover up for the gruesome ones. The extreme violence and hatred towards women in that world goes too far sometimes, to a point where it gets ridiculous. Not a single male side character (or even main) seems to have a heart in regards to the other sex. They all possess the same mentality, and it gets tiring real fast. Everytime they save women, its because MC said so.
Another issue I have is with said MC. She was great at first, using her wits to charm the 'royal brats" and get them on her side. But then for some reason she turns into an absolute damsel in distress and strays from her main goal, heavily. We barely see any development on her part, which can get frustrating espacially in the later chapters. She is so enamored with her love interest too, which makes sense because he was her fiancee/lover in her past life. But to us whom we barely seen, hes extremely dull and uninteresting next to the other potential love interests. I've never seen a male lead this boring. His 'tsundere' aggro side had charm in its own way, his struggle to comprehend why he is so attached to the MC- but then all of it is thrown down the drain. Honestly, the pink haired knight is best boy and shouldve been the main LI.
Besides the story going downhill, the art seems to be heading down that path as well. As the seasons progressed I noticed how childlike the characters have become in appearance? Particularly the father, the king. He was the manliest male character of the series, with wider shoulders and an overall more buff appearance. Now hes... very skinny? His body type and even facial features resemble that of the other MLs, he looks like a teen too next to them. What happened?
Overall, I truly wish for this series to get better. I had so much fun reading the first two seasons, the author needs to step up their game and save the manwha, and end it on a satisfying note. The main characters need development and the story needs a main focus.
