    The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold to Another Kingdom - Ch. 17 - Reason and Emotion

    It does. The overall logic is not sound because the country is in such dire straits, but the steps to take towards the goal are, if that makes sense. If all he gives a damn about is 'becoming the next king with unlimited power', then it makes sense to get rid of any naysayers with influence...

    I'll Become a Villainess Who Goes Down in History: It Seems Turning into a High-Born Baddie Makes the Prince All the More Lovestruck - Vol. 5 Ch. 25.1

    ...well that's horrible. Thanks nonetheless, I know to not expect much else from this now.

    Forget My Husband, I'll Go Make Money - Ch. 81

    I'd say it's because it was made very clear that she thought this way not (only) because of her own presumptions, but that Literally Everyone said to her growing up "You're gonna marry the Prince so shape up, girl!" So she did just that. She played her part, tried to be as perfect as necessary...

    Forget My Husband, I'll Go Make Money - Ch. 80

    I'm just glad she came right out and said it. Everyone kept interpreting things in the worst possible way.

    Climax Necromance - Ch. 9 - Magic Measuring Chamber

    So basically, everyone else on the planet essentially has a dedicated reservoir, which pulls from the Sea of Magic, that they can call on. There's a finite amount they can pull at any time, and with a certain flow speed. Like pulling water through a hose. Ichika just pulls DIRECTLY from the...

    An Incompetent Woman Wants to Be a Villainess: The Young Lady Who Married as a Substitute for Her Half-Sister Didn't Notice the Duke's Doting - Vol. …

    Even then, she's not dense or ignorant or anything. In fact, she legit is kind of an asshole, even if she's helpful. She's just very very direct about things and brooks no nonsense.

    Kuma to Usagi wa Tomodachi dewa Irarenai - Ch. 30 - Thieving Cat

    This is, IMO, subtle but important character development. He's not just 'a hot dude she wants to bang' now, he's 'someone I genuinely like and want to also have like me', so now she's respecting his boundaries and trying to be polite, which is a bit of a switch.

    Akugyaku Hadou no Brave Soul - Vol. 1 Ch. 6

    Did anyone notice that in his imagination/memory, the swordswoman was with them, but in this altered reality, she's not? That might also have something to do with how they're getting beaten so badly now.

    [Recommendations] I'm looking for isekai or reincarnation stories where the Villainess and FMC become friends.

    I'm not sure what either of those are, so I'll look them up. I mean, yeah, whatever you can think of that fits those criteria. I just wanna see some reincarnated gal pals. Stories that have Villainesses and Heroines that should be enemies but are friends.

    [Recommendations] I'm looking for isekai or reincarnation stories where the Villainess and FMC become friends.

    As stated in the title, anything that involves would-be enemies being friends is what I'm in the mood for, so if anyone has suggestions, I'm game. Preferably reincarnation/isekai.

    Akuyaku Reijou Level 99: Watashi wa UraBoss desu ga Maou de wa Arimasen - Ch. 21.3

    Think of each medium as different alt. timelines. Different circumstances, different paths, different outcomes.

    Ore no Shibou Flag ga Todomaru Tokoro wo Shiranai - Vol. 10 Ch. 71 - Leafa's Worry

    IIRC, at this point Erika's kinda given up on her being the person he loves? Like, she knows he won't do her dirty, and that he's an honorable man who will trust her with important stuff, and she loves HIM, but she also has no real expectations of affection from him any longer. I might be...

    Akuyaku Reijou Level 99: Watashi wa UraBoss desu ga Maou de wa Arimasen - Ch. 21.3

    Something I think is interesting is that considering Yumi's level 99, that means she's likely to have jumped up at least 10 levels, I'd estimate. I wonder if the 'must defeat a Dark monster to trigger the Tutorial Complete' flag went off, so all the experience she SHOULD have gotten is given to...

    Akuyaku Reijou Level 99: Watashi wa UraBoss desu ga Maou de wa Arimasen - Ch. 21.3

    And here we have it. The timeline in this variant is very different, arguably headed for the best ending. Frankly, good. I think she deserves it.

    Isekai Ryouridou - Vol. 11 Ch. 55 - Even When You Drink...

    I actually read this as a bit more somber than it seems like. Ruu realized that Ai Fa was depressed, and quickly threw together some wine to get her drunk and take some of the tension out of the scenario. The rest of the chapter was them dealing with a drunken Ai Fa, who wasn't entirely in her...

    Binbou Reijou no Kanchigai Seijo-den ~Okane no Tame ni Doryoku Shitetara, Oozoku Harem ga Dekite Imashita!?~ - Vol. 4 Ch. 23

    I believe you when you say that, because I've kinda gotten the vibe of 'this seems implausible to win', but I'm not certain of the details. How did they write themselves into a corner?

    Akuyaku Reijou Level 99: Watashi wa UraBoss desu ga Maou de wa Arimasen - Ch. 21.1

    Frankly, I prefer the fact that Alicia is a nice girl in this variant. This version of her really doesn't deserve to get traumatized at all. She's done nothing wrong whatsoever.

    Akuyaku Reijou Level 99: Watashi wa UraBoss desu ga Maou de wa Arimasen - Ch. 21.1

    Time to see just how much this manga has deviated from the Web Novel. This is the flashpoint that solidifies WN Alicia's hate for Yumi and locks in her opinion that she's the Demon Lord. But this Alicia is a sweet bean and is more the recipient of a lot of unfortunate sequences of events meaning...

    Otaku ni Yasashii Gal wa Inai!? - Vol. 5 Ch. 32 - Otaku & Gyaru & Takoyaki Party

    The author is on record at least as recognizing people like both leading ladies and want him to end with both sincerely. That said, if you pay attention, the manga is constantly, if quietly/subtly, leaning in the direction of Amane as the endgame. Ijichi would likely become the 'fun aunt', or at...
