   As a manga and manhwa reader, japanese manga is more various and extreme in both genre and plot than korean’s. For example, Berserk, Claymore, Akumetsu, Deadtube, or some isekai like Newgate, Overlord, GATE, Ryo, or some extreme revenge like letting father eats his young sons’ meat(they all deserved it) Japanese mangaka should focus on their best original force, manga, not half as- webtoon. Also, their oneshot is also very good which really end in a shot as named, even korean used same catagory as oneshot(fake), but have 4-6 chapters.
   Unfortunately, translators are so less and less each day, some even drop their work mid way. Some of their works even have 2 versions, manga, and webtoon versions. What is worst is that J-webtoon version always sucks, but translators love it due to its trendy manhwa-webtoon nowadays. You know, 1 page from manga, they split into 4 panels, and 40-50 detailed pages in 1 chapter, can be split into 3 to 8 chapters, qc also dropped, to exploit money from readers.

   I’m so confused why anybody thinks this points to anything but a webtoon (since the title is in English with no given alternatives on this website and is quite similar to a lot of unnecessarily long anime titles)

   So, if you like a story where the FL tries to use her limited knowledge to help those around her, and try and catch the attention of the ML in order to avoid being exiled without a place to go, in a world she can’t survive in alone, read this.

   If you don’t like that kind of story, don’t read it, and don’t misinterpret trying to stick to someone for no risk of survival for being a story about a FL who’s life revolves around a ML, since this story clearly indicates that is not the case.

   Some Spoilers below:

   Also, it has ab interesting story of a nurse possessing the body of a tormented princess who killed herself by slitting her wrists, and then exiled to become an empress or live on the streets, which based on how she cannot use a single item (since they require magic to run) she wouldn’t be able to survive long unless someone helped her, and this story focuses on the female lead trying to find a way to impress the Emperor to not be left out. There is a ranking system based on gems, but that means nothing if the Emperor doesn’t choose 1 of them or more. It rarely has anything to do with the Emperor besides learning why he acts the way he does, which typically is given as the FL finds this info out. This is a typical isekai romamce story, where 1 girl finds herself in a new world, is given some hardships, but using information from Earth they find a way to overcome that and get married (the story isn’t done yet, but I can see where it’s possibly leading towards)

   @chessie quite the essay you got there. I’d be impressed if I wasn’t laughing about how much time you must’ve spent writing all that.

   Idm japanese ppl making korean style manhwa but I prefer if they atleast leave the men-centric storyline in Japan. The reason i read manhwa is because the stories have good female leads and are focused on the female lead, even without a ML in the story, she’s still a girlboss. But this story just about womens whos life revolves around a man, whatever she does it has to be for him, whereever she walks, he has to be there. Like seriously?

   @Kitsune, it has a Korean title, Korean onomatopoeias, a little bit of Korean style, and is labeled as “manhwa”… Yeah, they’re not “pretending” anything.

   Probably manhwas sell more than manga and Japanese webtoons?

   But aside from that, the story is too shallow. The ML is one of the most annoying characters I’ve ever seen. He despises and treats everyone badly. He has a harem, which is alrady known that he’ll discard later, and the reason for this is nonexistent. The only purpose of it is to watch women fighting over a “golden boy.”
   He’s just an irritating pretty boy. That’s it.

   Nothing makes sense in this webtoon. The man accompanying the FL is someone whose life she literally destroyed for no reason at all. And instead of being mad or something, he’s like: “Oh, okay, I’ll serve you with my life because it’s my duty”??? That’s not reasonable. He was a duke, and she ruined his life, turning him into basically a slave with no possessions or rights… just because she DIDN’T LIKE HIS CLOTHES. Sure, this was the old villainess, but he doesn’t know that.

   People in these webtoons don’t care about real issues like being unfairly stripped of their rights, being mistreated, or humiliated for stupid reasons. Instead, they focus all their attention on things like: “Oh my, her clothes don’t match.” The FL is your typical bland angelic girl from a dumb otome manga. She’s boring.

   read the comment again, carefully this time. Your laziness to think before responding makes me lazy to reply to you.
   Did anyone say it’s forbidden to write webtoons? Is that all you understood? My God

   They’re not pretending anything. Anyone is allowed to write a Webtoon, you know.

   As expected, this is not a Korean Manhwa. It’s a Japanese Webtoon…
