My Manhwa List (2019) pt. 6
Most of the story here offers more than romance and has politics. Carry on ~
For 7 years, marriage was banned in the Kingdom of Great Joseon because the King lost his precious wife. Enter a marriage fraud specialist to save the day (while she sends the King and his trusted General into emotional chaos).
- plot = 4/5 few chaps but very promising
- idk who the ml is tbh but this looks like it’s more than that bcuz p a l a c e
- the tactics of the people in the palace into tricking their emperor into lifting the no marriage ban is funny lmao
- mc is meme-able and is not a coward
- to conclude: despite the few chaps, this story has a lot of potential, it’s very promising. the art style is okay too and the characters are easy to like
"I will never love the Emperor."
My sister Nilla, who became the Emperor's Queen after having dreamt of fairy tales and true loves, came back divorced and accused of high treason. Our family, the Rochesters, were mercilessly executed. But by some miracle, I came back in time to before she was selected as the Emperor's Queen candidate.
If I become queen in your stead, you and our family need not suffer. This life of yours can have a happy ending, sister. I promise.
An empress fell into a trap, divorced and was cut off by her family. In the last minute of her life, her sister Tricia regretted the way things ended. "If only I were the empress" then she would make sure not to love the emperor. Everyone will be happy without dying.
When she opened her eyes, she returned back time before she became the Empress. In order to prevent a recurrence of the tragedies of her past life, Tricia makes a final decision: "I will become the queen instead of you." Can Tricia, who became an empress, live a happy life?
- the mc is very loving towards her loved one especially her sister but she also knows how to be bad
- no ml but i think the emperor is the ml basing on the story BUT he’s trash so not considered
- strong independent women? check
- cunning and smart mc? check
- ngl but i’m only reading this because i want vengenace against the emperor for what he did to the mc’s sister/family
- villain is effective you’d want to kill her yourself
- to conclude: one of the stories that will make you care less for romance or ml because the progress/plot will make you just want the mc to be the ruler of all. the mc is strong independent and the villains are great
Tensions are brewing under the seemingly calm surface of the Vasilios Empire, a kingdom ruled by the Imperial Family and the Temple. Lady Medea Solon has lost her place next to Crown Prince Eros, but resolves to do whatever it will take to win back what's rightfully hers. Will she reclaim her throne?
- this is an anti-heroine type of story so to speak
- few chaps so i cant be sure but centers around two women
- mc is very smart, cunning, manipulative and wicked that even the crown prince considers her as a threat
- mc is strong independent woman
- no clear mls but rest assured that this is more than that
- you’re gonna love how cunning they all are
- concept is good too since soul/body switching is one of the theme (body switching between medea and psyche)
- helio is a cinnamon roll but can kill you
- to conclude: read bcuz this story is awesome and will make you want the women to stand up together!! you might even hate if they have endgame bcuz this is more than romance and it’s so interesting. more than the art style, the plot and characters themselves are all so freaking cunning that it’s hard not to love ((p.s: pls hate the crown prince like i do lmao))
Two siblings who were separated at a young age due to the death of their parents reunite again with many mysteries muddling their past.
- art style = 2.5/5 i think the art style is okay but it’s not really my cup of tea hence the low score but if you like a unique and painting-ish (museum style) type of style then this is for you
- few chaps but promising
- to conclude: low on my list but the mystery will keep you going, the plot and art style are decent.
There were rumours going around about the mysterious encounters of two men.
- plot = 3/5 (to be fair, it has like few chaps only hence the low rate)
- this story is brought back to life or to be more accurate time rewind type mc was killed but her husband and sacrifice?? sorry for the spoiler) :--(
- one of the stories that will make you want to read even if there’s no romance involve
- to conclude: it has only a few chaps so i can’t say for sure but the start and the chapters are very promising. also, very mysterious bcuz no one knows what her then husband killed her and sacrifice her and also who saved her b
