So. That one manwha (Cassmire: the Loyal Sword) I was loving (that currently has been on hiatus for like 3 months) is just about to have its light novel released on tapas. Like. Yeah. It’s back to the beginning and it will take a bit to catch up. But. I don’t care. I get to read it again in novel form now. And maybe at some point it will surpass the manwha.

HOT POTATO: Series that I dropped and why

As promised here's another

Abandon Empress

Allen. THIS IS BECAUSE OF ALLEN. The character assassination they inflicted on him just so they could sell the idea that Ruve is better fitted for the ML role is insane! To this day I still resent the author for writing that bs and expecting us readers to just accept it. There are so many avenues that they could've done without making him into a crazy stalker but of course they chose an easier route.

Cassmire The Loyal Sword

Girly is someone who transmigrates into a novel and works as an on-hire mercenary. She basically lived two lives at this point and she still acts like an oblivious child? Nope, I don't buy it. Not one bit. It doesn't suit her background and I'm getting secondhand embarrassment for just reading the manhwa. The sisterly bond is cool tho, and I would love to see more from the genre.

The Remarried Empress

Stale chapters, one-dimensional characters, and a toxic fandom. The Remarried Empress is one of those original Otome Isekai manhwa that doesn't really age very well. It has a lot of narrative issues and it's portrayal of the lower class is interesting to say the least. I will not go into to much detail but if ya know, you know. The excitement ends when Sovieshu and Navier get divorced, and it hasn't picked up ever since.

Cassmire: The Loyal Sword

Currently on chapter 67.

Overall Rank: 9/10

This Manhwa is one of my personal favorites, with a story about Cassmire, the lead, risking her life becoming a mercenary to get the medicine her younger sister, Aria, needs to live. Through an accident where she hit her head Cassmire she regains memories of her past life and a story where her sister is the lead character. Though she used to be the villainess in the og story she sticks with her sister and will do anything to help her. Past this point I will be talking about spoilers and specifics of the story so you are warned.

From here I will be breaking down the story in 3 main categorizes and just talking about things I really want to touch on overall.

Firstly the art: 10/10: I dont care that some of the costume choices are interesting, I've heard a lot of people complain about BDSM wear but it honestly isnt that bad. No, the reason this gets a 10/10 is Cassmires design, like she has muscles are scars and looks hot as fuck like look at her.

I am gay and love muscle women and it is very lacking in this genre so it is really good to see. And she is also very cute on top of it. But overall the art is good to look at and has amazing character design for all of the cast as well.

Story 8/10: This one is hard to quantify as we still haven't really gotten into the meat of the story. There some talk about things that happen later in the story like how in the og story Aria saves the world we haven't gotten into anything that bad yet. Though that might make it seem slow it really isn't, the story has more been focused on character moments and while things go off the rails it doesn't seem to be world ending yet. I have quite enjoyed the most recent aspects of the story, it is good to see both the main characters flaws and her strength all in the couple chapters.

Characters 8/10: This was the hardest one for me to choose a rating for as I love Cassmire she is one of my favorite protags, she has so many good moments and has and sticks to her morals to help people. My only issue is how they weaken her by making her overly reliant on her aura but even that makes sense. And her relationship with her family is just so good to see. I love how ruthless her sister is in defending her and how her brother cares about her and how they fight like real siblings. And how her dad cares about all his kids in his own way and just wants to support and help her and it just so sweet and they all care about each other so much and that's the shit I love to see I love a good family dynamic. The reason this is an 8/10 and not a 10/10 is because of all the ml's. They are all kinda mid it is just the same troupe over and over again and I get it shes kind she saves people but 4 dudes and they are all the ml's from the og story. And I dislike all the hair color changes it doesn't make sense also they are boring. Also none of the leads have good chemistry with Cassmire, they are all cowards who won't talk to her about what they are feeling. I hate them all have open secrets and not talk with each other, but this is a me thing I know I have seen people like these ml she doesn't really seem to have chemistry with any of them. This story would get a 10/10 if she ends up with no one and just lives happily with her family but it probably just me who thanks this.

With all these combined this overall story is a 9/10, a beautiful story with an amazing main character and her family but the weak ml's stop this story from being a true 10/10. Thank you for reading my unedited review have a great day.

rereading. somehow I forgot how insanely hot she is

[twstfanblog]

So I may or may not have binged Kill the Villainess and The One Within the Villainess. But oml Kill The Villainess is so good!!!!!! Do you have any other manhwa recommendations? Like any and all I’ll read anything no matter how trashy

-manhwa devour anon

I had to go and find the titles and remember WHERE I read them XD

My favs and recommendations are as followed

From Webtoon!

My In-Laws are Obsessed with Me (Good characters, good mystrey, GOOD ROMANCE. PLEASE READ THIS), Divorcing my Tyrant Husband (Just a genuine good read. Boss babe keeps trying to fail, but husband keeps turning them to wins), Marry My Husband (A classic ♡), and The Remarried Empress (Love the story and their romantic build up).

From Tapas (Where I mainly read them, so lots of names!)

Cassmire: The Loyal Sword (lots of action and yandere-lite family who adore the MC), The Villainess's Stationary Shop (Boss babe just keeps WINNING), I Shall Master this Family (Like...she's two-fold isekaied, love this one), I Failed to Oust the Villain (LOVE flawed characters loving each other, the plot frustrates me but I wanna KNOW), The Dukes Darling Daughter-in-Law (Lil boss babe keeps DUNKING on everyone. She can not be stopped), Being Raised by Villains (I like it, but I will say Im more interested in the few flashes we get of the MC's life before the isekai), Status Window to the Soul (A GUILTY PLEASURE, I JUST LOVE IT SO MUCH), It's Not Your Baby (LOVE IT. Has moments where it gets SEXY.out of nowhere, like this comic has thrown it in my face the MC was railed to hell and back by the ML and that's what started all of this. The story is...confusing to me now, but I enjoy it!)

And my prime recommendation.

Mother's Contract Marriage.

The art? GORGEOUS. The story? ENGAGING. The characters? DEEP, FLAWED, AND INTERESTING. Our MC is a little girl whos MOTHER is thrown back in time after theyre both burned at the stake for the mother's actions. From there she's kind of dragged along as her mom tries to get her revenge on the family that caused their death by becoming a contract empress, making her daughter a contract princess.

Here's my recommendations! I hope you find one you really like from them!

Unexpected Arrivals | Cassimir & Roderick

It was a miserable day.

The temperatures had risen, so Cassimir supposed he should be glad that they didn't have the bitter cold to deal with, but the rain beat down with unforgiving force, melting much of the snow. The roads had turned into a swampy, muddy mess that were becoming unpassable.

Cassmir was seated comfortably enough near the fire in his step-father's old study when one of his servants entered -- rather flustered -- with a captain wearing the colors of House Varmont.

"Lord Malconaire -- " A quick bow from his servant, "excuse the intrusion -- "

The Captain had little patience for this and sidestepped the servant, to make his own announcement, "His Imperial Majesty, Roderick Varmont the First of His Name, Conquerer of the Twelve Kingdoms, Defender of the Faith, and god's own Champion has bestowed upon you the honor of hosting him and his men, while his carriage is repaired. He shall arrive momentarily. He shall expect to be received in a manner that befits such a guest."

Cassimir sprung into action immediately. He had no particular love for the Varmonts, Roderick included, but he knew the very important role that he and his mother hoped the emperor would play in their plans. Cassimir knew that for Roderick to marry Sonya, he must look favorably upon their family and he was not to allow this sudden development to hinder it.

He dispatched his servant immediately -- everyone must make ready for the emperor's arrival. He knew that even his step-sisters would be needed to help in the preparations (both prior to and during his arrival), so he would need to offer some excuse as to their absences. Besides, he did not want the emperor's eye to be distracted. Sonya was beautiful in her own right, but even Cassimir had to admit that each of his step-sisters possessed a beauty of their own (except, perhaps Brigit. If she had any beauty at all, she did an excellent job of hiding it).

When Roderick and his company did arrive, there was still much work to be done, but Cassimir was pleased as to what had been accomplished in the short notice that he had received. He felt it a testament to his own leadership (but didn't give a second thought to those who had actually performed the work).

"Your Imperial Majesty," Cassimir bowed low. "It is a honor to have you grace our halls. I'm sure you and your men must be hungry. If you would care to follow me, our cooks have prepared a feast."

[mostlyskinart]

Nico, Maélys and Cassmir. Cassmir is Nicos vampire grandaddy and he has everyone wrapped around his fingers.

That was when we played a whole adventure investigating a ball - Cassmir absolutely obliterated Nico in social combat 😂 Nico dyed his hair pink for the occasion.

[knightoflodis]

I have found a very good manwha that has a scarred muscular lady that wields a sword. Cassmire: The Loyal Sword is so fun right now. It may be isekai, but it is isekai light and it’s mostly just fun. Haven’t seen her in armor. But I hope they put her in armor.

[psychosomaticdeicide]

Started reading Cassmire: The Loyal Sword, and I like the fact that a female character who is a mercenary and covered in scars has gross looking ones that aren't just a slash of color on otherwise normal skin. Other manhwa tend to just go for whatever's most aesthetically appealing.

Also the 3D background pieces of the setting aren't nearly as terrible as other comics.

[cherchersketch]

Cheerful Countess Sisters / Countess and the Blade

Not one, but 2 badass girlboss FLs. But in general, it’s just a switch-off-your-brain fun little romance read.

Summary Our main FL has a real pos father. Everyone knows this, even the grandfather, so when he passes away, all the inheritance is given to her instead. Of course, the trash doesn’t throw itself out, father-of-the-year decides to locate the one illegitimate daughter who hasn’t been bought off by granddad.  Sike! She’s actually a decent person so when the 2 daughters meet up, they unite to throw away the trash instead. And then it’s time to find themselves some MLs to get that sweet Happily Ever After.

Tropes   - just throw this whole family away   - who run the world? GIRLS

main FL - Charlotte de Perrol

 - protecc the cinnamon roll  - richer than you’ll ever be  - gaslight gatekeep GIRLBOSS  - of course there’s always a depressing backstory

other FL - Kara 

 - precious cinnamon roll has never done anything wrong ever  - gaslight gatekeep girlboss

main ML - Arthur Cardiff

 - the royal family in this manhwa messy af (but then again what’s new)  - precious cinnamon roll has never done anything wrong ever  - super special awesome ~*magic*~ user  - of course there’s always a depressing backstory  - it’s unrealistic af but I love a cute ~soulmates~ trope ;w;

other ML - Brandon Russell

 - PUPPY  - precious cinnamon roll has never done anything wrong ever

Rating: I enjoyed my time reading this Status (as of 15 May 2023) 100% complete.

Same Same but Different  - Cassmire: The Loyal Sword
