Another week in the books. Let's chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.

Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).

I've been pretty sick and extremely busy so no much reading for me. I did keep up with the series I post here as well as catch up on Villains Are Destined to Die. One thing to mention on the latter - I really appreciate how done the MC is with everything. She had a shit life in real world, shit life in the game world and all she wants is to be left alone to exist in peace. It's great.

Final update on my desktop app journey - I've decided to drop Komikku (it's fine but has too many small and annoying quirks) and moved all the things I want to Suwayomi. The latter has it's problems as well (to the point I use it less then initially planned) but the overall experience is better than Komikku so I guess I'll manage.

A'ight, back to resting.

Remember to also read Death Is the Only Ending for the Villainess.

Probably the best villainess story around, hands down.

Get well soon! ๐Ÿ˜Š

That's the one I meant, I guess some places use a different title for it.

Get well soon! ๐Ÿ˜Š

If I die... tell my mom... I left some ice cream in the fridge.

Ugh. My brain registered it as The Perks of Being a Villainess. ๐Ÿ˜…

Don't worry, I'll pass the message on.

To be fair, I did read this one too and mentioned it in previous threads (thanks for the suggestion, again). Besides, both MC's do look pretty similar too.

Usually the moment I see a FL with silver hair and golden eyes (right now I can think of Sienna from The Great Wish, or Finne from The Isolated King and the Imprisoned Princess) I fall in love and wish I was like them.

On the other hand, Penelope is the most gorgeous of them all. By a planetary distance.

That she is, though since you mentioned silver hair I can't not respond with my a soft spot for Renee from The S-Class Lady.
