(Towards the end of this review I talk (rage) about the ending of this manga – it´s marked as ***SPOILER and SPOILER END***)
Don´t be fooled by interesting premise of this manga as it´s only relevant for the first seven or so chapters. After that, it becomes most boring shoujo ever with all the overused tropes and misunderstandings you can think of. Boring monologues about feelings? Check. Spending night in a deserted cabin while their clothes dry? Check. Troubled past that slows down their relationship? Check. There are only very few classical shoujo tropes that are not present in this manga (probably because it has only
...
39 chapters). Anyway:
Story - 3
What story? There is none. Original premise serves just to give characters reason to interact with each other and for princess and one of the thieves to fall in love.
Art - 8
Good art. Nothing special about it, but the art looks neat and modern.
Characters - 2
So there are three main characters and few important side characters in this manga, but honestly most of them are extremely bland.
Princess starts as interesting main female character. At the start of the manga she is brave, smart and skilled in combat, but as the story progresses she becomes a damsel in distress that needs saving all the time.
Luca (thief that falls in love with princess) is boring. He has dark and troubled past (of course). And even though at the beginning princess defeats him in combat very fast, for the rest of the series he keeps saving and protecting her.
Other thief (Sylvain) who is friend of the male MC and is there to be mysterious. Also has dark and troubled past.
Japanese loli who is in love with Sylvain and is there to be cute. She also has healing magic that is never used for anything.
Princess´s fiancé who is there to be love rival.
Enjoyment - 4
I finished reading worse manga than this one, but this felt like such a waste of time.
Also about the ending (***SPOILER). It´s absolutely stupid. Not that I´m not happy that they ended together, but I hated when princess renounced her royal status and nobody tried to stop her. Even her family was okay with it (which doesn´t make sense). Also apparently you don´t need to eat or anything and you can live from love. Like darn, I have finished manga with bad endings, but they sometimes almost made sense. This hot piece of garbage? Nope. You don´t need money or anything, you just need love and you will be happy forever. Anyway, SPOILER END***
Overall - 4
Read something better. Tons of fantasy and romance manga are better than this. Almost all of them make more sense than this one.
