I just reread the last few chapters (as we all do, surely) to keep myself going until the next update. I was admiring the queen (who is regal as fuck), and it occured to me.... was she her generation's Emi? Like, a super talented, savy noble woman propping up a mediocre man of royal blood...

As it turns out, ad-libbing is a little more perilous when you're at the macro economic scale versus a hit comedy sitcom.

See, this is why I've maintained that if it wasn't Pina it would eventually have been somebody. He was always going to betray Remi because he's the kind pathetic mediocre dude who reacts to his own inadequacies by trying to drag others down. He wants to be flattered into thinking he's something...

The manga adaptation subtly draws out the queen's awareness and impact superbly. I love that she's smart and can take control of a crowd regally and is such a cipher that she even surprises Remillia. She might be the only one unsurprised by what happens next within the kingdom (the demon allied...

Me doing many jazzy finger snaps while nodding my head in support of this comment.

The manga is vengeance edging us sickos and we LOVE IT. 👏🏻 We. 👏🏻 Love. 👏🏻 It.

Well, obviously! At the logic we're at Yaoi is any time a piece of media 1) has two male characters 2) that talk to each other 3) about anything other than good ol' 100% heterosexual American football. Yeehaw! 🦅 😂

If you weren't here making these points I think I might have an actual stroke. I reread the entire story every couple updates and keep a light eye out for other people's conclusions I myself didn't draw. The take you're pushing back on is the most pervasive that isn't supported by the text.*...

Look, I read the manga for several volumes. When the title was mentioned in this thread I went back to where I left off to see why I stopped. On paper those things you said have... possibility? I guess? And in a story meant for a female audience might have gone somewhere interesting. But the...

She's still an evil villainess. The only substantiative differences in who she is (versus in the game Emi played) are that we like her motivation (revenge for the spiritual shattering of an angel) and she's able to be highly strategic (thanks to the game knowledge and prep work of said angel)...

Those are all properties with a male audience. Single Mother would be an easy sell because it's just "big titty lady kills things in a dress and two uwu little girls act like cardboard cutouts". Every woman there is just a male fantasy.

Honestly, if he is fighting for the quality of life of the common folk he's a colder seeming person than her, sure, but working towards better goals than she is. Tia's all about herself, her family and her bestie.

I honestly think Sershow is only on Sershow's side. His comment about their people getting exploited felt honest. If he was the head of the royal guard he was in a prime position to learn people's follies and watch the way the wind was blowing. I think he bided his time for large players in the...

Your comment is spot on. People who think Remillia should have learned something/changed because of Emi's love are entirely forgetting that all of Emi's efforts had bad results. In the end all Emi had to show for acting like a saint was a sea of betrayal and a soul roommate (lol) who saw...

I'm coming 4 years late to the discussion to chime in for team "Sei should have been checking in on this vulnerable, lonely teenager". She goes out of her way to bring homemade Japanese style food to... a bunch of hot dudes but not the woman who also got kidnapped and probably also isn't used...

I wanna preface this by saying my opinions are heavily influenced by the fact that Aira is a vulnerable teen and Sei is a working adult. 1) Aira and Sei did the same thing, the only real difference is all the men Sei collected JUST SO HAPPENED not to have fiances. All Sei's fellow researchers...

I will agree that Willard is pitiable, but he's also just a kind of guy you meet all the time. Insecure, mediocre (if left to his own devices) and all too eager to cause harm to assuage his feelings rather than improve himself. If it wasn't Pina it would have been some other woman ready to be...

Legit one of the best burns in the entire story. Made all the better by the fact that everyone, including Willard, gets it but her.

This is a spoiler from the original story. What they'll keep for the manga is anyone's guess.

Regardless of to what degree the potion impacted the OG LIs' feelings for Pina, their behavior is what makes them dirtbags. Even assuming the potion is a complete 100% unstoppable romance roofie (which canonically it isn't), it's JUST affection. You can be madly in love with trash and still be...
