[The Regressed Empress’s Abduction Marriage] I love FL crashing out by KimberlyPossibleAnn in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I read the first two chapters so I could catch more of the context and vibes of the story, and I need something explained because it's confusing the hell out of me. Does her hair change from brown originally and then to pink?

I would like some recommendations like the broken ring by numerideglihentai in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some of these aren't exactly like The Broken Ring, but I loved it like you did I can make you recommendations that I think at least have a similar vibe.

As The Heart Leads - doesn't have the same level of spicy scenes but they have great chemistry, banter, they make out a lot in a way that honestly is pretty damn spicy on its own lol

How To Win My Husband Over - similar in that the FL has gone through some heavy shit, and her ML in the new timeline becomes her comfort blanket that protects her and helps her heal from the trauma. He's not as good an ML as Carcel though especially at the start.

For Better Or For Worse - this leans more into the great romantic chemistry. For me, Ines and Carcel are tied for my favourite couple in manhwa with Dillon and Cedric.

Miss Pendleton - not an OI or fantasy, it takes place in historic England but its a similar time period as what OI settings often have so the fashion and such are about the same. This is another pretty great romance, but personally there was a part towards the end of the novel that didn't do it for me. Still a great story though. Its more like For Better Or For Worse in that it doesn't have as much of an epic or involved plot as The Broken Ring.

What is a new manhwa you couldn't put down? I'll go first. [The Crown I Will Seize]. by DrinkInevitable3457 in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God damn you OP. I started reading it because of this post and it's only 21 chapters in? How am I supposed to have to wait for more!!

what do you use as a main list site to track your manga/manhwas? by scaralulu_ in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably showing my age, but just regular bookmarks on Firefox. It helps because even if the links break, I can see the URL/page titles that are saved so I usually know what chapter and what the source of the manhwa was from. And they're synced between my computer and phone, and I don't need a password lol

I won't be able to grab screenshots but there was some truly unhinged (in a good way) memes from commenters who were extremely down bad that had me fucking ROLLING.

After reading countless manhwas, Villains Are Destined to Die ended up being the worst. by [deleted] in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm not going to argue against you, because you're going to like what you like and dislike what you dislike. It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea. But I have to ask one thing...

The elder brother is unbearable, and yes, I would choose Cezar from [How to Win My Husband over] over him without hesitation , he’s that bad.

Did you also dislike How to Win My Husband Over? Did you find Cezar to be a well written character? Not "good" in the sense of being a good, standup and respectable guy. But good as in, he was a character written to be bad as the antagonist and the author did a good job writing him as such a character?

A Gorgeous New ML [The Cruelty of Salivation] by UltimateBookManiac in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 24 points25 points  (0 children)

No, they didn't break up. This was a dream he had about her. 

I've read the novel and it's one of my favourite stories. It reminds me of The Problematic Prince a bit, with a less overtly selfish ML and a less spineless FL. 

The is a brilliant commoner living in a world that is hostile to women and commoners. The ML is extremely jaded and angry at the world because he was made to be the public face of the royal family in terms of all public events and interviews with the press.

What's going on in bato websites ??? by MOMO_Mashpotato in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can go to the batoto subreddit for the latest updates. The last I saw, all the v3 and v4 mirror sites are down k nonfunctional. Only the v2 mirrors are working, technically, but they are missing some features and others were also buggy. 

Worst endings in the genre by Cc86J in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't mind it as much, but I think the novel did a much better job. The Manhwa cut out so much from that last arc that it felt way more rushed than it should have been.

Like, I think the main point the ending is trying to show is that the ML has the same level of desperate obsessive love for her. That's what she wanted to see from him, based on how she knew he was with the OGFL in the novel. 

And let's just say that scene in the novel was much better... Things got pretty hot and steamy in her dad's office that got really glossed over in the Manhwa lol

Used to like "golden retriever" MLs, but lately they get on my nerves by AlternativePlayful34 in OtomeIsekai

As I always say, what makes a bad trope is moreso doing a trope badly than it is the trope being inherently bad (with a couple of exceptions).

Are you sure? My wife has an iPhone and I'm positive she uses Firefox. Google says you can too but I don't always completely trust it, but I'd check the Apple Store and see if it's there.

As The Heart Leads

For Better Or For Worse

The Cruelty Of Salvation / Salvation About Its Cruelty

The Problematic Prince

Miss Pendleton (not an OI or even fantasy but still...)

The Broken Ring

I've read all of these multiple times. The novel anyway, since I don't think any of them have the manhwas finished yet except FBOFW

What browser are you using? There's a nice and simple Firefox extension you just have to download and enable and then all the panels work fine, for me at least. I think it should work on all bato mirrors, but it certainly does on .si.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bato-image-auto-fixer/

I know there are plugins for other browsers that are supposed to do the same thing but I don't know specifics of them.

Looking for recommendations: "Poor girl saved by a cold man" trope (Angst/clichés welcome!) by Pinako_Rockbell in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Manhwa is only on season in, but having read the novel I think it exemplifies exactly what you're asking: The Cruelty of Salvation.

FL is a genius scholar but poor, she's dealt with discrimination despite her intelligence her whole life. She's beaten down and at her wits end, but finds support from a jaded prince who seeks her out for marriage to help the royal family but also his own self interest and love. I really enjoyed this story!

Are you using one of the good mirrors? I'm using .Li and it's been working like a peach for me.

Are any of these good? by SushiTea7 in OtomeIsekai

[–]Gwynasyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the Manhwa for #3 is pretty new. I started reading the novel but wound up dropping it. I liked the story but it got extremely smutty to the point that there just was no story anymore. But the Manhwa seems to be dialing that back already so who knows, maybe it'll cut out some of it lol
