@kuraiaku the problem is it's a lazy trope and is very lazy world building.
@spiderbait that would be interesting to see but it would be difficult to pull off. the history behind the fall of monarchism is very interesting and a manga exploring it properly can tell a great story.
I'm so tired of the selfless noble trope in manga, as if oppressive nobles weren't the norm or somehow kings and queens actually gave a fuck about the peasant class.
