For real tho

So I’ve gotten into webtoons over the past few months and I just wanted to share some of the really great ones I’ve finished and am still reading (because they’re still ongoing ;-;)

If you love historical, fantasy and romance like me, try these!

COMPLETE:

My Dear Cold-Blooded King

My first webtoon and what a gateway it was! STUNNING ART, captivating story line and a good ole love triangle to make my heart tingle.

The Reason Why Raelina Ended Up At The Duke’s Mansion

Another winner! I read this over the course of a day. That’s how good it was. This also was my gateway into the “oh no I’ve transversed space and time somehow and ended up in this new life and well, I guess now I’ll make the best of it” and boy, was I into it.

A Beauty, A Fatal Concubine

This one recently ended and took my heart with it! What a drama this would make honestly. A hardworking and clever protagonist who outsmarts everyone - we love to see it.

Ellin’s Solhwa

I’ve only finished this one in the past hour and did I love it so much! Another one of those “oops I got sent back in time into someone else’s body” but such a good story.

Ginger and the Cursed Prince

Recently completed and what a lovely ride it was - our once antagonist tries to change the narrative and make herself the protagonist but it’s not so easy when our male lead can read minds…

ONGOING:

The Remarried Empress

Boy, oh boy, do I have nothing but LOVE for this series. Again, a clever female protagonist just trying to do her job but her idiot husband keeps getting in the way so she finds herself a new man! LOVE.

Beatrice

Another one of those “I have another chance at life” webtoons with an adorably in love male lead who can’t quite figure out how to tell her just yet.

My First Night With The Duke

The “oh no I’ve somehow ended up in this novel” trope which I’ve come to adore. Our protagonist is hilarious and plucky and sends our poor duke into a tizzy.

Like Wind On A Dry Branch

The least amount of chapters so far and a bit of a slow burn but we’ll get there eventually. So far also a very different story compared to the others

Men of the Harem

Reverse harem? A female emperor? Yes please.

Under the Oak Tree (I ran out of space for pretty pictures) - also a slow burn but we’re building up

Lucia - a second chance but very dark background for the hero!

I am the Male Lead’s Ex-Girlfriend - I only just found this one but it’s already so so good; I love buttholes to live to regret their choices

I Don’t Love You Anymore - our female lead finally puts down her foot, gives up on her one sided love and moves on - and of course that means the idiot she loved only just realises he’s an idiot and wants her back. Too bad for him, she’s already got herself an even better man! And he’s a prince!

Father, I Don’t Want to Get Married! - combination of “help I’m in a novel” and the novel villainess gets a second chance at life - but how can her father be that good looking? Like I love the male lead, he’s adorable and slowly understanding that he’s attracted to her, but the father is actually melting me slowly

Villainous Violet - ditto the above trope but with so many men now in love with her and a super pissed off antagonist!

His Majesty’s Proposal - this time it’s the emperor doing the chasing and I love it

First Miss Reborn - 180+ chapters of revenge with our intelligent heroine foiling schemes at every turn and our devoted prince supporting and loving her every step of the way :’)

Midnight Rain - very different from all the others I’ve mentioned; starts out from kids to adults (we’ve only just reached the teens) but there’s horrible rich people, an illegitimate son and a budding love triangle.

Death is the Only Ending for the Villainess - I’ve heard a lot of buzz regarding this one and I love reverse harem and I like the fact that we get to quite literally see her progression in the love percentage bars above all the male leads’ heads!

Who Made Me a Princess - ngl, it took me a couple of chapters to get into this one but I pushed through because I’ve seen a lot of good reviews about this and it has not disappointed. Not as much romance as the above but the hot daddy theme is getting to me…

The Lady’s Law of Survival - a weak duchess dies and her body is taken over by a spirit who’s had several failed lives and is determined to make this one work - by kicking butt and taking names and getting revenge for the previous body’s owner! I really like this one

I’ll be the Matriarch in this Life - I finished all the available chapters in this so quickly; another reborn heroine who’s already slaying them all at the age of 8

The Reason Why Ophelia Can’t Get Away From the Duke - this one’s dark but seriously so good…new step siblings lose their parents in a tragic accident, the stepsister wants to leave but the stepbrother won’t let her? Intriguing. What’s the story behind the parents’ death?

I Became the Ugly Lady - a second chance, magic and mystery! I’m a sucker for a personality makeover and then all the good relationships that come with it!

The Villainess Lives Twice - a marriage of convenience, carefully crafted plans, and a hint of true love breaking through

Please give them a go - the art is gorgeous, the storytelling incredible and the memories fantastic. They’re the reason I’ve been waking into the early hours of the morning.

I’ll keep updating this post as I find more because there are so many and I wanna spread the love. I might also be a tad bit obsessed...

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood + Onion Headlines

People will reinvent eugenics in a #woke way sooner or later. The idea that people should not be attracted to the disabled because it's fetishizing the power you have over them, the idea that dating someone short is at all comparable to pedophilia, the idea that no one outside of your own race can ever truly understand your experiences and therefore no one outside of your own race could ever truly love you... like, we're not there yet, but every so often I'll see a truly rancid take and think "Now why does that sound familiar?"

its important to me as a detrans woman to be vocal about it. its important to me as a detrans woman who initially only had radfems to talk to about detransition, because i couldnt find a single trans inclusive detrans person for over a year, to make sure other people know they have options.

radfems arent your aly if you're questioning your gender. they dont have your best interest at heart. they dont care about helping you explore who you are, theyre only interested in sucking you in to be another transmisogynistic pawn for their violent ideology.

if you're trans/nonbinary now, but are wondering if it isnt right for you, know that you have options. you can talk to me. there are people who have not done a 180 into bigotry who are here to support you.

please reblog, do not just like, this post.

i dont have a large platform. i want this to get spread. i want to remove terfs from the forefront of detrans/reidentification awareness & support. they cannot continue to be the first contact for questioning people.

i am begging you, yes you personally, to please reblog this, and comment or reply in the tags if you're a safe, trans-inclusive detransitioned or reidentified person to approach.
