Good classic shoujo vibes, full of murder & drama and being driven by love & dedication to your craft. Somehow pulls an extremely dramatic series of events into a cohesive story that doesn't feel over the top & I applaud it for that.
cooking manga + villainess. and it's eating monsters? what more could I ask for! Tempted to start a list of stories about eating monsters....

The isekai cooking manga put me in a cooking manga mood & this one also lured me in with the pretty cover art. I realllly like the art in this series & the characters are pretty charming too. The art feels like a mix of the author's of ran's grey world and otoyomegatari's styles. Something about female manga authors drawing sexy women...

I was lured in by the cover of this one, picked it up on a whim and wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I do! A nice isekai cooking manga that very quickly climbed up to the top of my isekai cooking favs. I really enjoy when cooking manga give attention to seasonal foods & this one has put me in the mood to make some preserves of various kinds.

I was lured in because I thought this series was going to be wlw. Very sadly, it is not, though the empress and her attendant have a GREAT dynamic which has soooo much potential as a romance series. It's still good anyway and the dynamic with the real love interest IS also good. just. wow. devoted knight x lonely empress would have been so good.

Finally got around to reading this! I like the art a lot, especially the way Nina's eyes are drawn (fitting for a series with such a focus on eyes) I enjoyed the themes of fate & defying it. Nina is a very classic shoujo protagonist whose naivety and determination to keep all the people she loves happy are her greatest strengths and I love that for her. I don't think I'll keep up with this series all that regularly, I'll probably come back in a year or two and see what's happened.
