Great shoujo manhua

Rating: 8.0 / 10.0

One of the best One of the best shoujo manhua I've read so far. The story is nothing special, the MC dies and goes back in time and tries to do better this time, the big difference is in how it's done. Most series go TOO well for the MC, it's boring, this one is done more realistically, she accomplishes what she sets of to do but it always has a cost, her new life is not a flowery one.
The main plus is obviously the MC, witty but knows how to bide her time and play her cards when they are ought to be play and has enough cojones to accept the price to pay. She acts crazy but there is always some end goal and it's not really illogical, just that those around her simply can't understand her. Other than her, most chars are minor, save maybe the masked general (how could there not be one), her guard and her maid. I'm guessing the General will be the ML and the other too are mostly sidekicks, which leads me to the other good point, the comedy is right up my alley, not over your face but more subtle. 94ch is and I still find the story and comedy engaging.
Overall, great, Pace is good and the art is classic shoujo manhua style, not great but good enough to be enjoyable and suitable, don't expect the upper manhwa standards in other modern series.
