TL;DR: Adelaide is your typical shojo-isekai manhwa, and while it may not be even remotely special in the genre, it's certainly an enjoyable time.

L;DR:
I see that this manhwa has no reviews at the moment, so I thought I'd throw in my own two cents on the story for your consideration.

Shojo-isekai has been my guilty pleasure for a while now, and as more and more manhwa crop up following the same fantasy-medieval-europe setting (some which admittedly have nothing to do with isekai), Adelaide was definitely on my radar. It was a super easy series to read and binge in a day or two.

I'm always down for ... a fiance-fiancee romance, which is exactly what I got from Adelaide. Duke Felix, like many manhwa dukes, is a handsome male lead to follow and you generally end up rooting for Adelaide and Felix's relationship. The other characters woven into the story are pretty interesting as well, such as the crown prince and the story's villain, Susan, among others.

The flow of the story was definitely there too, I never felt like a part was going too fast or too slow, and the climax of the story felt satisfying. There's a few gruesome and questionable parts, and the story itself was quite predictable at times, but otherwise it's a perfectly average manhwa that's hard to find anything wrong with.

Art-wise, I never had a problem with the art style. It adequately portrays the story and characters. There's lots of cute and funny moments woven in, and I think Adelaide is overall a very enjoyable story.

There are so many complaints about the female lead - it shows how people really don't think beyond people's actions.

*mild spoiler*

The way she does the things she does is not well explained within the manhwa but when you think deeply about WHY she might have done those things, then you would understand how she was feeling at the time. Yes she may be a little "extreme" or "dramatic" but aren't we reading these manhwa for the drama??

I love that the focus on this manhwa isn't full of nobles being jealous and petty, there's a nice objective and I LOVE the supporting characters so much! They're ... so loving, caring and funny which was well executed.

The problem people should have is with the writing, not the female lead character, in my opinion.

I stayed up until 10am reading this soooo I thoroughly enjoyed it.
