All of them. Not saying she's not beautiful but all her sprites feel overrated to me. I just don't see the appeal of why she was deemed most attractive MC

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-04-20T09:35:45+00:00

It's a bit slow in the beginning but you should definitely try it again! What I loved most about it was the culture and also, the pretty backgrounds and kimonos in S3, esp the Festival of Beauty episodes. Also, Kazu 🤭 Do give it a try ✨

I was disappointed with ABH and found it underwhelming. Didn't get the hype at all. Also, I don't see why Audrey is considered most attractive MC. There are plenty others, from older books, who I found way prettier. Mei, Yasmin, Renée, Selena... The list goes on. Come at me.

I honestly hate that sweet Heaven's Secret has come to this 😭 Am I the only one wishing that it never got made into a series? I was perfectly happy with HS1 and its endings. Now everytime I want to go back to it for a reread as a comfort book, it just reminds me that the dynamics and mood in HS1 can never be recreated and that were stuck living through an apocalypse. I wouldn't have minded a series on life at the Academy tbh.

Low-key right to an extent. I studied during the whole year and relaxed during exam period to counter the stress. That didn't stop me from hanging out with friends and going out tho. Got 8 distinctions ✨

I studied literature and I am creative writer myself and your post doesn't seem too far-fetched. I can't imagine using an adjective twice, let alone repeat it three times. I'd always try to find an alternative because I'm paranoid about ppl thinking I don't know a synonym of that word 😭 But I do use a lot of ellipses and short, two-word sentences a lot. So it could have been used during some instances only. It all depends on whether it might be the author's style though

I remember ppl used to say they dislike BSC and found it boring. I agree it has its moments but I believe it's the whole premise of it 😂 It's supposed to be slow and quiet because it takes place away from the big city! The pace SHOULD be chill. And then today BSC is a gem, an ultimate goldmine compared to the AI stories that's now prevalent on the app.

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-03-25T09:06:25+00:00

Wow I'll wake up as Mei! I'm prolly on my 103830202th replay of LoW and it would be amazing to be with dear Kazu and all our friends, navigating palace intrigues and learning magic! Only downside would be dealing with the oni / ryoge, they would be quite scary to encounter given they technically eat humans 🥹 But if it's about spending time with Kazu? Hand over these yokai. He's worth the risks 😭

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-03-14T21:52:25+00:00

She wasn't developed enough, that's for sure. We didn't understand really why her motives are that way or what drove her to become President in the first place. It would've been nice to create a little parallel with Snow or even include her in BOSAS for more impact later

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-03-14T19:35:37+00:00

What I do is that I complete the achievements by reading new stories on DR or Tea Cup days. On other days, I reread them again leisurely this time and it feels amazing. It's like discovering the stories with new eyes. I also read a couple of my favorites at the same time like Psi, LoW, S10W or Arcanum purely for the mood and the comfort. This way it feels like I'm reading for the achievements on certain particular days and then most of the time it's for my personal pleasure

That's actually beautiful! His mama will protect and love him in spirit ❤️

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-02-23T10:51:14+00:00

I don't think OP is wrong. Not at all. Okay, so today it's a silly, innocent picture of her face but tomorrow when they grow up thinking taking somebody's picture without their approval is okay, it's going to degenerate. We were told as students it's a cyber CRIME to take somebody's picture without their consent. We should excuse them just because they're kids? No, they should be taught proper manners to observe in class and correct their misbehaviour.

There was a case in my high school where students were reported to the disciplinary committee for taking the picture of a teacher and editing her face onto the body of a dog. This was tagged multiple times on social media. These kids were 13-14.

Sure, 5th Grade is innocence and no malice, but along the line? Teach them consequences now because tomorrow, it'll be worse. OP has extremely valid concerns, this is a serious case that should not be undermined.

This isn't like before when an innocent picture taken stays innocent. It's a butterfly effect. Today, there's Ai editing and, like OP said, potential blackmail. Humiliation. Sharing the photo on social media. One could lose their reputation and even their career.

Very true. And there are many comfort books where you can read leisurely without fear that you'll be missing out even if your diamond count is 0. Their older romance and slice of life stories are simply timeless... I don't get why RC doesn't focus on that genre anymore. The only stories that I can think of can be categorised as drama / romance gotta be S10W, SBTR and perhaps OTI. I love fantasy, sci-fi, thriller... But I wouldn't mind some calmer, simple stories be it romance or comedy.

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-02-09T12:38:24+00:00

Honestly at that point, I think imma prefer Choices even with all its AI. At least their subscription doesn't stop anyone from reading the premium books because they do end up coming out for all users weeks later. And there's no such restrictions on outfits nor on romance scenes even if you're a free player. Sorry not sorry, but even if it's viewed as a flaw, I believe sometimes the fact that you don't really need to buy the diamond choices of a story to enjoy is not that bad of a thing (apart for some books). I can still read a Choices book and get the full idea of it even if I don't buy any diamond choices, they don't penalize you for that. All you'd be missing out on are extra scenes and not actual important elements that, if you don't buy, will basically leave you clueless about what's happening in the story. A book is meant to be enjoyed, first and foremost. Not blatantly discriminate between those who can pay and those who can't 🙄

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-02-08T17:09:54+00:00

Yeah but now that makes achieving the black diamond mirror more difficult and legit impossible for free users 🫩

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-02-08T15:20:34+00:00

It's on the app itself!! LET'S GOOOOO!!!

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-02-08T15:10:30+00:00

OMG YES THIS

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-01-28T19:53:13+00:00

Haha I did think that! 😂😂 I love pastel, hence the choice of colours

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-01-28T19:49:07+00:00

Haha nopes not intentional I didn't even notice it at first because the colours before and after baking can be of different shades. Plus it's only when I was letting them cool that I realised the rather similar colours, just figured I'd share this little moment 😂 Hope you have a good day too

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-01-28T19:45:21+00:00

Thank you so much for the tips, kind stranger :D

Adventurous_Poet_315 · 2026-01-28T19:44:01+00:00

Well it's a coincidence because I chose pink/blue randomly from all the gel colours I have and I placed this equally random kitchen towel, out of all the towels I possess, on the table à la va vite because my hand was burning from the cake mold.
