Once Crown Princess of the Empire of Kotrov, Adelheid is reduced to a political pawn by her own mother when she is married off to Emperor Karl Ulrich Echmont of the faraway Echmont Empire.

frustrating  
by TiredandDeadInside

Rating: 1.0  / 10.0

It's a whole laundry list of irritating things that, if I were to write out, would be a novella.

This isn't a review. This is just a reminder to myself why I hated how milquetoast the ML is in this. The extras were even more frustrating.

I wish this site has private notes that one can make.

Realistic characters and development!  
by energizerbunny

Rating: 9.8  / 10.0

I agree that these characters are less 'flowery' and less typical-romance-stereotypes than ones in other stories. However, I personally found them THAT much more realistic and intriguing! Other stories are a dime-a-dozen: the same typical, pretty lead characters, the same lovelorn side characters, or gag relief ones. The art is still gorgeous in this. More importantly though, each character in this story has a multifaceted personality, has their own complex desires and interactions with one another... and there REALLY IS gradual development to characters throughout the course of the story. I loved it!

Art good, Plot so lame  
by IAmLilith_09

Rating: 2.0  / 10.0

Character and character's development is very bad. Spending time reading until ch 50 without any changes on the character's personality is such a waste of time. The story is too monotonous and the challenges is not that difficult but the FL, overthinks everything and all thus makes things hard.

Since there what we call MC buff, all the characters except the MC, the FL and ML, have a bad personality. It only centers on nonsense and pathetic view. No special power struggle that makes sense. No worse complications that cannot be resolved.

This is so lame that, for me, the art is the one carrying it. *Even though the characters drawn with this art does not have the 'excitement' emotion we are looking for. I though the story would be on part with remarried empress. But I guess, I just have a pathetics excuse not to read this any longer.
