(I'm giving it a tentative five stars even though we're still early in the story because of the unfathomably low rating...) I like it.Character interactions feel realistic and compelling, and OG!FL (I'm talking about Asta) is a b*tch but she reminds me of a darker version of Aria from TVRTH. Even though I hate her, I can understand why she's so pressed to exact revenge and if the story were told from her POV I bet we would all be rooting for her, which is why this new spin is very refreshing and intriguing. Spoiler
This is her second life and she was basically ruined in her first life by a dimensional traveler and the "real saint" (Yenna) so this time round she wants to take over everything that Yenna had using her first life knowledge. But our FL has knowledge of everything including Asta's regression because she read it in a novel iirc.
[collapse] Asta is not your typical two-dimensional villain (at least for now) and she has actual motives for doing what she does, but I still hate her for implicating a child in her revenge (our FL). Speaking of which, our FL (Hanelope) is simply adorable and reading from her thoughts is very pleasant, and I love her relationship with her dad. The translations are very good as well!I highly recommend for you to give this story a try and see for yourself if you enjoy it as much as I do ~
