There was a mass release so I decided to read this. I'm glad I did. It feels like a darker version of those father-daughter stories that have become so popular.What makes it darker? It's all in the characterization. The would-be doting father is not just an emotional iceberg for a couple of paragraphs but still hasn't melted by the chaper I'm at (chapter 20). You have to hold on and don't get too frustrated when the main character doesn't get her fluff-ever-after with him right away. This father-daughter relationship made me want to cry.The twisted brother/cousin character and the lunch lady, on the other hand, do soften up to the main character. The brother/cousin acts all cute and tsundere. Just don't expect either of them to turn into goody-two-shoes just like that.The main character herself is a reincarnated ab*se victim. You can feel her detachment and hopelessness. She acts mature beyond her age, but shows her childlike side when some people begin to care for her. Bonus points because she is half dragon.Five stars, definitely worth a read. But bring tissues.Edit: Some of the chapter links on Novel Updates are broken (perhaps due to dates in the url). If you're having trouble accessing a certain chapter, try the chapter 1 link and click around on the translator's site to get where you want. The chapters are still there.
