The One Within the Villainess - Ch. 25.2 - The One Who Passes Through This Gate (Part 2)

[Tsukikgm14]

I've taken liking to Erharsha's guard, I love the fact that he just so quick to restraint Lina when ever he see she moving. Viscount too, he basically became a personification of the readers at this point.😆

Sofia is just so handsome in those outfits, any one noticed that he wears a matching one with Klimt. 😏🤭

Now all the capture targets feels both regret and shame for their actions, thought it's seem like all those regret is for wrong reasons. They feels shame not because they don't believe Remilia before but because they realize that Remilia never feels jealous towards them. What a trash prince.

I just love when ever they show two side of Remi, outside a kind maiden and inside a scamming villainess. Those keikaku faces is the best.😆

I like the queen's expressions.
Everyone is shocked and in awe and she just has that signature look of superiority going on with her face. Truly a queen

The manga adaptation subtly draws out the queen's awareness and impact superbly. I love that she's smart and can take control of a crowd regally and is such a cipher that she even surprises Remillia.

She might be the only one unsurprised by what happens next within the kingdom (the demon allied folk have more data but idolize Remilia too much to be objective).

I was under the impression that it was the Queen to sent Sofia out on a mission back then. Maybe I am mistaken?

Slightly.
Ch7. Pg.19 Sofia is making a report to the Queen about the Star Maiden. In the next chapter, Ch8 Pg.8 we find that Sofia personally investigated the situation surrounding the denouncement and the Star Maiden. Something that the Royal's Secret Service should have done themselves before accepting Willard's actions at face value.

Ch.14 the Queen is portrayed as being somewhat sceptical towards the Star Maiden. No doubt due to Sophia's report so it's well within her character to want to turn the screws at this opportunity.

"I don't care about characters fated to die!"

Oh, wow. At first I was a little disappointed the manga didn't keep the irony of Pina being stopped by the same female knights she'd refused to train with, but this version having Sylvest be a NPC who wound up being saved by Remilia's actions preventing the war is just as good.

Remilia makes an important point here. Emi wouldn't want anyone, even Pina, to suffer the sort of fate that's coming. Emi is also brilliant enough in her own right that she definitely could have come up with another, more compassionate solution to this crisis.

Emi is also brilliant enough in her own right that she definitely could have come up with another, more compassionate solution to this crisis.

Maybe, but probably not.
She was blindsided by Pina at the beginning, which is the whole reason she got so depressed that Remilia could and had to swap back in.
Her compassion was not enough. Her brilliance was not enough.
What worked this time was Remilia's ruthlessness combined with her trying to keep the appearance of Emi's compassion.

If Pina was the actual Star Maiden and not the greedy otherworlder she is now, compassion probably would have worked. Emi wanted a happy ending with everybody, including the original heroine. But that couldn't work anymore when the new Pina took over.
There is likely no way for a happy, compassionate ending as long as she is in the picture.

You're done for Pina

 

[stavekoff]

this is going to be the most satisfying payoff in manga history

The funniest thing about this situation is Isekai'd Pina really had no need to do any of this to get what she wanted.

Her end goal was Angel. She had the power, the position and the added bonus of foreknowledge to have actually completed the role of star maiden properly while forming a relationship with Angel pre-emptively and skipping a war like Remi did without going after those other guys or going against Remi.

It was entirely her own greed, narcissism and laziness that lead to this ending. She targeted all the guys she didn't want. She framed Remi. She slept around to get people to assist her. She never even considered doing anything to solve the upcoming crisis yet somehow expected to snag the demon king for herself.

The actual "villainess" never existed as a threat because she was happy to sit back and watch Emi live her life instead. Isekai'd Pina even knew this was the case.
I'd say everyone could have had their happy ending but in reality all those guys were still shitty people just looking for an excuse to act out. Either one of the guys would have eventually made a move to get Remi for themselves or the prince would have gone tyrant and imprisoned his queen once he was crowned.

So good!!!!

You know, never understood why people sympathize with Will, bro just realize he was scammed and lied to, and his first initial response isn't some apology or cursing Pina for the deception, but disappointment that the FMC wasn't some clingy jealous bitch for him. Bro's entire political and social life was dead at that point, but the FMC not yearning for him, to the point of bullying other women for his attention, is what broke him.

The Swordmaster is sooo handsome, just what a knight should be

 

[REDRED]

OH NO ITS ALMOST OVER! Well thanks for the read. It was great while we had it😭

With the original Star Maiden game, Pina's reincarnator was most likely the kind of whale who used the amount of money she'd spent on the Pay to Win options to try and demand preferential treatment, which is why she thinks crying out to the admins will work here.

the only manga that serve revenge done perfectly!!

 

[Ranzo]

As much as I like the series I feel like the writing has plateaued a lot I understand what they’re going for with these confrontation chapters but it doesn’t feel real
The dialogue especially comes off as unnatural
Also, the way all these big reveals are being dropped one after another feel unearned.
