Hi, not trying to be disrespectful but can you point out such instances where pronouns have been inverted.
I got a summary of the pronounce we did use. Unless you mean Polidoro was a female.
* snip *
I am not the translator, so help me out here.

• Page 10, "duke Astarte". So far Astarte has always been referred to as a duchess.
• Page 11, "he'd think the same as HIS highness". Every other authority figure bar Polidoro is female so it should have been "HER highness".
• Page 22, "he's the sentimental type". Both knights are female so it should have been "she's the sentimental type". The bubble in the raw is "想起タイプのショタコンだったか" so 100% not about the rescued boys (literal translation is "was [implied subject] a reminiscence-type shotacon?")

Well, three is a number... My apologies, my comment was harsher than warranted.

Well, this is unique to the manga. So I'm sure part of the disjointed pacing is because of that. So this is how they'll handle it. Not a fan of the change, but I guess this allows more personality in the guard to be given since we skipped a bit.


To be fair, we know the majority of the 2nd Princess group actually find Faust moderately attractive, though that opinion is. . . well, heavily swayed by his position as both a Lord of anything and a breathing male. And any other attempts at marriage is literally being stopped by the fact that the 4 people who like him in Anhalt are also the 4 most powerful women in Anhalt. So Zabine and group are the only ones we hear about actively wanting him, besides the 4.

Not that anything else you say isn't relevant, but his level of attractiveness is a bit higher in Anhalt than he realizes, even if he is the inverse of most tastes in males in Anhalt. And honestly, the point is mostly moot anyway to both the reader and Faust.

That is the usual issue of an author telling, not showing. There should have been more characters that weren't attracted to Faust for one reason or another, and imo, the revelation of some of the four should only be hinted at this early on given how tied into politics that is.

I will say that despite that, they are depicting feudal politics better than most. At least on Faust's end.
