Better late than never, thanks for translating. Looking forward to the final chapter.

 

[Mandobard]

That was a pretty cute one

 

[catbot158]

It’s okay, life happens. Thanks for translating! That family frustrating, wonder if the fiancée actually knew what happened in the past life or not…

Why did he allow the engagement to be broken in the first timeline?

 

[MagnaDrake]

I dont think this one needed the time rewind premise, but it was nice still.

His stepbrother escalated it to the royal family before Grey/Ellen could do anything about it.

 

[FloorRoof]

Not exactly a super exciting story but they were very cute together, so it's fine.

 

[SparkySWE]

Oh no! It's the fantasy Titanic!

 

[Superpeanut]

Fun! Good characters, a simple enough story, and some time spent on them afterwards. This was nice.

 

[phoenixir]

Thstvas so cute!

I agree, it didn't actually make a difference outside of "oh I knew not to get involved with a violent drunk", which you'd think she have figured out naturally.


This one was pretty bland, most of these time travel ones have had some excitement thanks to the premise, so it's definitely low tier for me

There's the makings of a decent-ish story here; the dynamic the two leads have is somewhat enjoyable, seeing her decide to step up and saying her mind once finally reminded someone cares about her was great, and I found myself rather interested in their time as childhood friends.
Unfortunately the fact that literally any sort of important conflict can be distilled down to "simply do not go near the drunken asshole and maybe like speak up for once" is pretty bad. There isn't really much to get invested in here, not to mention that the time travel aspect is rather wasted. With their dynamic having Grey as a loyal dog utterly in love with Ellen, it's a bit of a waste that he seems completely oblivious to the time travel.
It also may just be the villainess lover in me speaking, but I was disappointed she didn't actually use the matter of the vase to force her family's wrongdoings to light or just put them in her debt.
Really I just think this one's too safe; there's not really much substance here. It's fine, especially compared to some of the other works in this anthology, but it's just that. Mid.

 

[halcer]

It was cute but not very satisfying

 

[Fuhgeddaboudit]

ok but why did her mom abandon her?

like, is this the Japanese custody laws rearing it ugly head unintentionally again or was that pretty important plotline cut along with the time travel aspect due to page amount?
bc neither added anything besides making literally every character beside the MC look worst.

Time rewind plots really can't be compressed into a single chapter in a satisfying way, because you need so many pages to explore the what-ifs and the various misconceptions that your lead may have had and all that other stuff that I'm forgetting that makes up a good story...

 

[LilithYuuki]

Hey, welcome back. I hope you're doing better and are happier.

 

[lemuel]

Thanks for the translation but... did AI write that? The story I mean, not the translation.

 

[Sugarbeef]

To paraphrases Ryan George from his Pitch Meeting videos, "so the story can happen".

 

[fantasy.driver1129]

Thanks for translation!

This was cute but it still dont give romance to me despite the kisses. ML presence was meh and the chemistry gave friendship mostly. Like ML can be replaced with a girl and it wont change. Besides I wish/hope FL go on many adventures after leaving that shithole

 

[riflow]

Oh bubbies...they finally found their treasures in each other. That's beautiful 🥺
