This manhwa is INCREDIBLY realistic!!! I find the main character Ash's actions and thoughts extremely real and relatable, especially considering she was barely in her early twenties or so when she got transmigrated
The art is REALLY good and it really changes the colors and backgrouds depending on the mood and tone which is AMAZING
For example, in tense scenes everythng almost gets a little blurry, it's very cool!!!
It's NOT a love-focused story, which is one of my favourite things about this manhwa as someone who likes romance as more of a side plot!! A lot of sites tag it as a harem but like... You COULD ... say that since there's men aroud her but like ? It's not meant to be ABOUT these men fighting for her nor do they
They act really good with eachother and the guys are friends with eachother lowkey i LOVE IT

I don't like how Klien became endgame BUT i feel like it made sense. As Ash said, and i agree, love is complicated and who knows, maybe klien did end up developing true feelings for her, and if he IS willing to go so far for her, and doesnt look back at the past anymore, wouldn't it be unfair to label his love as a fake bond when HE is trying so hard to break free from that ? I'm sad Sir Mio didn't get to go with them, but imo it made sense, I feel like he NEEDED to stay there and he would be happier there
Mio and Ash and the others relationship was GOOD, they were friends, Klien liked him too as seen by the last chapter when he liked that he was adopted by Klien's family, but i feel like Klien and Ciel completely had nothing else holdng them back from following Ash
Mio still had family or at least.. IUNNO i might be coping but I feel like it made sense and was unique in a way for him to stay back? I love Mio's platonic relationship with Ash, and some ppl were upset Ciel was stuck in Ash's friendzone but.. I think he's fine with that? Just being near his friends, I think he'd be fine

The art and the plot leading up to the ending was well written. Do not come into this thinking it is a love-focused story. The story is focused on the MC figuring out the plot of the novel she isekai'd to despite not paying much attention to the novel when she first read it and wanting to go back home by avoiding the main characters of the novel. To me, this is fairly realistic because I cannot remember everything from the amount of isekai manhwas I have read (they basically all follow the same plot line in some ways). Many may have disliked the ending, ... no worries, so did I to some aspect....

overall: art was beautiful, plot flowed and realistic for the most part

However, it makes sense for a man who is so strict with staying righteous and following his duties that he ended up staying behind to protect who he was ordered to protect. HE SHOULD'VE BEEN END GAME but it became bittersweet, like he was there for her through thick and thin! What the heck! It did not feel right that MC ended up "choosing" the person she kissed as end game when she previously told him that he did not truly love her for her. And somehow, towards the end, that's the one she picked??
