Why is she so worried about lily... its her own daughter she hasn't had yet, and the grew lily's power herself with her connections. Lily is probably the easiest danger she could avoid. I guess you could argue trauma doesnt need reasoning but, still kinda off

Elaine's repeated motivation is getting stronger so she's not killed by her daughter Lily but she's also stated she doesn't plan to rebel against the kingdom this time. Lily only killed her because Elaine tried to rebel against the kingdom and got her father and siblings killed. If she's not planning to do the thing that got her killed, why is her planning based around the idea of becoming strong enough so Lily can't kill her?
Because she loves Lilly and still wants to have her as a child. Not once did she even consider not having Lilly, which is heart warming

His name is Walter and he's a skilled combatant? Did he pop up out of Hellsing?

"There was only one thing I love, my family"
"As the wife of the duke"
Oh, so she must have really treated only her family well-

"I didn't really talk to my husband, and pushed him away"
...

It's going to be a case of her treating all her children like pawns, despite the earlier claims, isn't it?
How am I supposed to believe such a person would suddenly change, despite their death? She'd definitely just try to take over the royal family again, but even harder. :pout:

Also, we didn't see how she lived specifically in her previous life, but am I supposed to believe based on what little we know (such as her elitism, and her belief in the superiority of nobles) that she'd be willing to cover herself in poop? Or that she'd be so open to talking to commoners, or being disrespected by them?

And why, despite having fighting and magic skills, did she not try to defend herself in the slightest against her daughter? Even if we account for her 'love' of her daughter, she's now preparing herself to fight her daughter now, so I can't believe she wasn't willing to do so previously.

Also also, she died in her mansion, while on the run from the knights... why would she return to her mansion? That's stupid. Am I really supposed to believe that the knights wouldn't be combing through her home when looking for her? :wtf:
I'm definitely overthinking all this.

A lot of... questions for this manga already...

She had such a weird change of heart when time rewound, like before she seemed more like a Karen and now she's more kuudere. Might be an adaptation issue? Because I'd rather spend time with her past self slowly becoming a better person, here it just sounds like she just gets to be a mary sue.

I'm assuming she's leaving out details that would explain why she needs to get stronger than her daughter, for plot I guess?

Besides that, its a good premise with a lot of potential for heart warming drama. But the pace, focus on OP action and questionable angles of MC could be improved on.
