MODERATORS
Still in the manhwa mines, don't mind me.
The Antagonist's Pet
I finished it last week. It's a really warm story about bonds, love and just being there for each other. I really liked all of the main characters and the general philosophy presented throughout - it was fun, touching and generally a joy to go through. All in all, a really enjoyable read.
One warning though: this series contains multiple scenes of physical and psychological abuse - keep that in mind if it's something that affects you.
Some random thoughts on the series:
Spoiler talk
The whole situation with Minah (Angela) had to be terrifying. A teenager being randomly dropped into another world and seeing playing the role of a mother as her only way to maybe possibly get back to her own world? Of course she's not going to make good choices in a situation like that.That doesn't justify her abusing everyone around her, obviously, but I can understand why she was so desperate about it.
A terrible situation all round.
Not That Villainess! / Mistaken for a Wicked Woman!
Girl from a poor noble family travels to the capital to become a knight, gets mistaken for her "villainess twin sister" she didn't even know about, shenanigans ensue. Also she has a stupidly rich father she didn't know about either.
A pretty fun read though I feel like it kinda moves past the initial idea pretty quickly. It's still there to some extent but it doesn't feel as relevant. At least MC being headstrong and unwilling to get played with keeps things interesting.
Will have to see how season 2 goes before I can come up with an opinion honestly.
A Handbook for Villainesses
Fake saintess is used to do a lot of bad things, gets tired of the charade and kills herself right before becoming a sacrifice. She wakes up alive, 10 years earlier and wants to repent for everything wrong she did in her past life. She also decides to act like "a bad girl" to make sure no one tries to make her pretend to be a saintess ever again.
Pretty strong concept, fun characters and cute art. It's a solid read and MC being thought how to act like a baddie is great. I'm not too sure about the recent story developments but I'm willing to wait and see how things play out for now.
