Moto Ansatsusha, Tensei Shite Kizoku no Reijou ni Narimashita - Vol. 1 Ch. 3.1 - Rosemary (1)

[rluka]

Jfc Amaryllis is the wife of a duke and she can't even run a household? Is there some justification for her being like this or is it just left up in the air?

Too sheltered. In one of the side stories, her husband did think it's a problem with their culture too, about how the males in the aristocratic society, including himself, are too protective of the females (even to the point of arrogance).
Amaryllis' case is probably more than the other as she prefers to avoid socializing and interacting with other ladies, not involving herself with the scheming and gossips. So she didn't have what her daughter would say, open your eyes and see the real world.

But if we talk of the story... it's a short story, so it doesn't do much to try making up justification on how the things in the background happens. It just want to tell this is the environment and situation the protagonist is placed in.

Imagine seeing a theatrical play where the audience just focus on the main characters' actions and how the plot unfolds in limited time. There are background stories told, but the audience don't put too much focus on asking why that tree in the background has fruit at that specific angle in one scene, why that one maid twitch discreetly at that moment, or analysing the colour of the family crest hung on the wall as a secret message from the author.
That, rather than audience of Youtubers who enjoy sessions like "25 minor details you might have missed" about a franchise and need to know every smallest details have a meaning and intention.

Typical victim complex. Adopted lil sis should not project her feeling of inferiority to someone else. If she really saw the MC as a better person coz she's a noble, she also became a noble herself, be better and strive more. She has too many privelege and she's wasting it coz she thinks her big sister is better than her.

Alto saw the spoiled nature of this adopted child. However for mom she is the real kid. Rosemary will ruin the house though, just like any bastards.

Ah, you thinkg muddy water is your ally? You merely adopted the mud. I was born in it, molded by it... I didn't see clean water until I was already a woman, and by then it was nothing to me but sterilizing!

It was amusing to see Rosemary move the goalposts in her losing debate with her older sister, who employed logic and facts to push her back until she was back to her staple, appeal to emotion fallacy. Unfortunately I don't see anyone taking Serena's side after that (satisfying) muddy water stunt she pulled, and this surely cements her reputation as a villainess.

Jesus the writing is horrible and the manggaka tries so hard to make MC smart by making everybody else dumb.

First the ridiculous adoption, then the mother that I think is a first human with negative IQ (the necklace situation is just stupid, they know how MC is behaving so why would they believe that she would do that) , finishing on a member of the royal family just casualy proposing the high noble 12 daughter becoming an assasing without even doing a simple background check. Even the smart MC behaves just utterly dumb as somebody say throwing sister to the mud is just stupid drama for drama and to make a plot point for story to move on.

Shame as the idea of sociopath or at least a person with repressed emotion isekai is kinda interesting.

The necklace situation is far from stupid, it’s a common trope in dramas across languages and in actual life. A LOT of parents play favourites and some asshole kids get away by making their siblings’ live miserable. A lot of conflicts and wars could have stopped before they started by being just and impartial (unless you’re dealing with hitler or the middle east)

I know because I could have went down that route since my elder brother was the high performer and I lived in his shadow, the only thing that stopped me from leaving my family behind or in a ditch was that I don’t give a shit about drama in general. That and my parents finally admitted he was just a manipulative piece of shit who loved money more than family, over 20 years later.
