Since nobody who completed this has written a review yet, allow me to give you my 2n cents worth.

The first 2 seasons were good, but the 5 year time skip between S2 and S3 could have been something better also the ending was kinda abrupt and no after/side stories, also this is a fairly short story so it can never get a very high rating.

The characters were good though, but the villains, well they were all kinda deranged, and since deranged people are not all there, they weren't very smart.

This "enemies" becoming lovers concept was nice though (although not that new/rare), but what I didn't ... like is the empress and her treasure hunt forcing them to stay together, it almost feels like she made it all up just to do that, also them whining that they failed, when all that happened is that they chickened out (I really wanted her to spit it out anyway), that left a very bad taste in my mouth, but it probably won't bother anyone that doesn't have the sense of justice of someone with ADD, so with that said I do recommend it.

If you want bickering turned to genuine feelings, this is the guilty pleasure for you. The plot is not that great, the premise is very average since there's so many stories that starts with fake engagement. However the story is very stellar at making the characters grow feelings and script bickerings and teasing. She girlbossed her way, amen to that.

The author knows how to make cute teasing with cherishing subtext, especially on the reactions. Most romance manga usually do the sudden blush, almost comedic that you cant take seriously. The artist knows when to do it and when it is best to showcase the leads' ... smiling faces with genuine feelings. The characters have substance and their schtick is not overused. Their compatibility is very high with how it was scripted.

The art is impressive but the proportions is ok. The lightings and softness of the art is very cute. The prince is very pretty and less onto handsome artstyle, very dreamy shoujo.

Personally, I found that the stroy gets better by each chapter. In the beginning it was decent but as the ML and FL develop their love-hate relationship, the story starts to get more interesting.

Plot-wise I'd say that its decent (6/10). Nothing too interesting but not bad either. It can be easily forgettable tbh. I'd say the plot isnt too impactful and/or significant since it focuses more on the FL and ML's relationship. Tbh, even I dont know what the plot is anymore....

BUT, the art is BEAUTIFUL!

AND, the love-hate relationship the two leads have is great! As they develop their relationship, the interactions get better.
