Villainesses in Romance Fantasy Become Obsessed

Honestly, the melancholic girl and the princess are such bit… Bitter persons.

As much as I liked this book because of Nadia and Yuri, I hate the parts of the story involving the melancholic girl and the princess. These two characters irritate me not because they use questionable means to achieve their goals, but because their potential as characters could have been better explored. The melancholic girl never seems sad and only occasionally threatens suicide, which is especially ridiculous considering her usual tsundere behavior. The princess, who should have a broken personality, behaves like a promiscuous person and internally blames the main character for being interested in other girls. Her unique trait is not even utilized, at least up to the point where I stopped reading. If these characters were removed from the book, it wouldn’t lose anything and would actually improve. Furthermore, the premise of the main character trying to fix them doesn’t make sense since the melancholic girl wouldn’t have been able to destroy a third of the empire in the original story due to her depression and incompetence. Additionally, why doesn’t the main character just let her peacefully hang herself and leave everyone alone, which would obviously save everyone? The princess also seems to have no real power to harm the empire.

But enough about the sad parts.

My only regret regarding Nadia and Yuri is that neither of them has white hair. For some reason, the author gave white hair to the main character. I usually like female characters with white hair because they look cute (at least in my mind), but this is just a small disappointment in the end. In everything else, I really liked these two girls. Nadia appears before us as a tyrant without compassion, endowed with the power to destroy (not just “kill”) those who displease her. She found her only family in the main character because he was the only one in her entire life who genuinely cared about her. It’s cute. However, due to her inclinations, she often chooses not very nice means to achieve her goals, but it doesn’t disgust me. It only makes her more authentic because she doesn’t change based on circumstances and continues to follow her nature unwaveringly. As I said before, Nadia is someone who would be delightful to crush and subdue, someone to fight with and someone you wouldn’t be ashamed to lose to. Then, there’s Yuri. She is almost the complete opposite of Nadia – insecure, modest, not trying to possess anything, setting low expectations. The only similarity they share is that Yuri also has immense strength to crush anyone who stands between her and the main character. So far, she has only used it against those who directly harmed him. I’m a little worried that it seems quite easy for anyone to take her away from the main character just by wanting to become her friend… But let’s believe in imprinting. She is so much like a cute little creature that I firmly believe she has imprinting. What’s more important… She is also an authentic character. Literally a cute little creature with the power to destroy anything that dares to touch her beloved person – I can’t help but mention once again how adorable she is. In fact, it’s easiest to maintain a relationship with her out of the whole group, and she is the least demanding, to the point of vulnerability – as long as you’re willing to be her friend and help her, she’s happy.

My overall impressions of the book are very mixed. I didn’t finish reading the remaining chapters because the melancholic girl and the princess annoy me too much, but I want to tell everyone who wants to read it that at least the parts with Yuri and Nadia are worth it.
