Eh?

 

[Midlani]

My yuri.... 😭😭😭

 

[catbot158]

Well, it isn’t yuri but that’s not a surprise when it comes to this manga 😭. I think there’s a yuri villainess anthology out there so we’ll have to be content with that instead…

And OP glad you’re doing better! 🎉 Times are going to be tough still, but you got this! 💪

 

[CrimsonWarden]

Um... This was a twist I should've expected, but still hits hard.

 

[Sakuyadorf]

huh
now where to read the grimms version i wonder

 

[Superpeanut]

This, but other way around….

I’m glad you’re seeking help! Seriously, it did so much more for me than I ever expected. Be ready for it to take time however. It’s not always a fast process, and it took me around a month to get into the swing of things at therapy. But if you stick with it, let them help, and try to improve, it’ll be great for you.

I knew the twist by page 7, and it was all too obvious by page 25. Yuri? In this anthology? It's as unlikely as you think!
But yeah, this one felt all too quirky and incoherent, and I didn't find anyone sympathetic enough

Ngl I felt bad for Imola being ignored by the MC. She very clearly wanted attention and was happy to have a matching outfit with her but got brushed aside.

Also a bit yikes that the Prince used magic to knock her out and essentially kidnapped her to the castle to marry her

Wikipedia have the summary and it's... Pretty Grimm

I could see the "twist" coming from a mile away, but come on!

I mean, it is a Grimm's fairy tale. Even a happy ending will seem ethically questionable to modern senses.

 

[AnnePackrat]

I saw the twist coming, but I appreciate the fairy tale setting as a change up to the usual villainess trope.

I think the author failed to understand the task. There is no villainess or "villainess" or even villain in this story. Everybody is broadly supportive of everybody, nobody does anything bad, nobody suffers any punishment, it really doesn't belong in this series at all.

I think after this much volume, the villainess is not really the villainess at all. It's just like a role.

There are editors and publishers who deemed this work compliant with whatever the task they've assigned to the artists wishing to be published in the anthology. You people think the task is to have one specific scenario playing out chapter and chapter again for 14 volumes straight, while the actual task is to write a vaguely early modern period short romance story about a girl who's tangibly related to some sort of villainy.

That's my point. There is no villainy here at all, not even tangentially. I'm not saying they need to follow tropes, I'm saying there aren't any necessary elements to fit the genre.

Is the first one a reference at all? Since the second one is JoJo.

The protagonist reincarnated as one of Cinderella's stepsister bullies.
