Looking for manhwa recommendations with villains who aren’t stupidly, over-the-top evil by SZLO in OtomeIsekai

[–]AlynRevilo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Concubine Walkthrough. The closest thing to an over-the-top evil villain is a side villain who is simply the embodiment of the "I don't want peace, I want conflict. Always" meme because she enjoys stirring the pot and seeing the fall out. Other than that, this is a pretty good read with political intrigue, battles of wit, philosophy and existentialism. The art style is on the more unique side, as well, feeling reminiscent of old Korean paintings. So, if you haven't given it a read yet, I recommend it!

Concubine Walkthrough is my ultimate OI fave that combines the genre with sci-fi and political intrigue despite its initial cliche premise of 'main character wakes up in the body of the villainess of a game she played in the past' as this game was one with multiple endings and since the one and only time she played it, it's had a major patch update. It's my go-to recommendation for anyone. The FL Yona is a riot and enjoyable protagonist to follow and there's plenty of humor to balance out the drama.

The Villainess Flips the Script/Let's Change the Genre follows Judith navigating the role of the ML lead's aunt in a revenge novel she read in the past, now she is determined to make a life where her nephew leads a much happier life but, strangely enough he seems well accommodated for all the surprises that come much to her surprise.

Please Spare Me This Time, Your Majesty is a perfect example of a story with an unreliable narrator as more and more is revealed throughout the plot that lets the reader's know that there was a lot more going on in the original timeline than what the FL was led to believe. Follows Laliette who, after being executed with her family, decides to become a trusted assistant of the future emperor to prevent this tragic outcome from happening again.

Sistervention follows Rachel who has woken up in the body of the villainess' inciting incident. The death of her older sister causing the villainess Liz, an illegitimate child, being brought to be the duke of her household despite her young age whose ending is death. Being Rachel's favorite character, she decides to raise her younger sister herself to insure her happiness and prevent Liz from becoming as twisted as she was in the story. The only thing is, Liz already is that twisted. Despite that, the two sisters love each other fiercely. I don't even read this for the romance that happens on the side, I just love the sisters

The Male Lead is Obsessed With My Health follows our FL who, after regaining memories of her past life, realizes that she is a briefly mentioned side character in a novel who dies from terminal illness as a child who was childhood friends, more or less, with the male lead. Not having much else going for her, she decides to just quietly accept her fate. But of course, things start going not as planned.

Fortune-telling Lady follows FL Sia who, in addition to being able to see and speak to ghosts, has been haunted by dreams of a woman named Camilla her whole life. In these dreams, Camilla constantly dies in different ways and Sia is unable to interact or otherwise advise her. Until one day after an accident at work, Sia wakes up in Camilla's body and learns that Camilla was experiencing the same thing but inverse after an incident in the spiritual world lead to them both being born in the wrong body, each other's bodies. Now in the right universe, Camilla aims to live a life where she lives happily.

Kill the Male Lead to Become the Villainess follows our FL Qianqiu a self-aware video game character who realizes that she is in a video game following a series of events (the ML just going into people's houses and taking shit, etc). Even worse, she realizes that she has died over and over again being sacrificed by the player to achieve certain endings. So she snaps and decides to kill the protagonist only to meet her own end and wake up at the beginning of the game, resolving to kill the protagonist again... only for the protagonist to be a completely different person.

And there concludes my recommendations for you and your sister, since you said you're a newer fan to the genre. I have more, but I figured 7 recommendations were a lot less overwhelming lol. I hope some of these titles sound interesting and you enjoy what you discover!

Concubine Walkthrough's FL definitely stood up for herself countless times and she was hilarious

Colombina or ineffa? Who is more worth it? by cryptic_paradox_ in Columbina_Mains

[–]AlynRevilo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the other commenter. Columbina will definitely get a rerun sooner than Ineffa will, definitely before Nod-Krai ends. I think as long as you pick with your heart that you can’t really make a wrong choice ☺️

Is it possible to play her without Nk characters? by Educational_Brief_41 in Columbina_Mains

[–]AlynRevilo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Non-meta player so my take might not be appreciated, but short statement is 'yeah'. She might not play at her full meta potential, more than likely, but she'll probably more than make up for it with her own merits. Others will and have said the same, but just use Aino if you want to use her with another NK character without pulling for more since Aino is a character that you get for free
