The bit that really got me about the flute is that after Yoriichi says that he’ll treasure the flute as if it were Kokushibou, his brother thinks about how it’s poorly made and unable to play a single correct note, with the implication that it’s therefore unworthy of love. I don’t know if he...

The way the prince and ex-fiancee talked about "giving over" Charlotte (she was standing right there and they didn't even check in on her opinion for formality's sake) and the prince's sinister expressions in the last few pages, together, bode ill for the "ever after" of this happy ending. On...

That "smile," wow. He looks like he's trying not to scrunch up his mouth after eating something sour.

Grabbed by the ribbons like a bull by the horns...poor Sakura.

There's really nothing directly stating that marrying the queen of Solier is a more horrible fate than being married off to anybody else in the kingdom—marrying somebody who'll mostly leave you alone and probably be good at sex seems like the next best thing to marrying for love, frankly—but the...

@LotusLily Hmm, I very clearly remember the wording being present-tense when I posted before. I guess they corrected it since then.

After that, eh....concerning first story, I didn't have high hopes for the rest of this anthology, but this one is actually great. Excellent comedic timing, and I quite like Lilian's character design. Glasses are pretty unusual on villainesses!

Interesting difference between the three releases: on page 15 (page 14 in the other releases), the MangaPillar translation words Kokushibou’s internal monologue in a way that implies his father making Yoriichi his successor is a fear of his—it’s worded in the future tense—but not something he’s...

@Silas Well, if he was an old man, he couldn’t really be her older brother figure, eh?

Wow, Kokushibou really got the quintuple whammy of envy, huh? Surpassed in a field he devoted himself to by somebody who didn’t care about it at all, surpassed by someone younger than him, surpassed by his twin (a circumstance where it’s very easy to see the other person as being not so...

@Solipsist @Stormdragon Getting distracted mid-task and forgetting what you were doing before the distraction is normal for very small children. I don't remember if Sui's character was literally childlike in the main story or not (I haven't read it in a while), but that's definitely what this...

Seeing the panel with "yeah, put in three bottles' worth of white wine" made me once again think about how fantasy/isekai authors that pull the "fantasy world food is gross, MC's normal cooking is godly" never seem to consider the cost of ingredients in cooking. Simple, bland meals happen...

Psst, @Kitsunebi, this is a duplicate of chapter 3.

Man, the wife was immediately on board with murdering that guy and pretty cool-headed about the whole thing. What a cool mom!

The author/artist's name is listed on the cover page—Haruto Aya. A cursory search says their only other work is another oneshot called Daisuki no Charge. If you liked the premise of this enough to want more, Honey Come Honey basically has the same one.

You expect me to believe that this lady wears bras after that ridiculous scene in the first chapter?! You can't have it both ways!

I read some of this one back when I first got into manga. (So, at least five years ago.) I dropped it after a while because something about it felt "off" in a way I couldn't put my finger on; now that I've grown up and gotten better at analysis I've reread the whole thing to try to figure out...

This fella can't even tell a compliment apart from the windup to a verbal slap in the face. There'll be nothing left of him when she's done!

Canaria's hypothetical Cesar-meeting-with-the-emperor scenario feels completely plausible, hah.

Aaagh, adorable blushing, my only weakness! Damn youuu! Noah's pretty merciless, huh? Realistic sibling dynamics are always nice to see.
