That was adorable

This review contains spoilers. You get both point of views making it an adorable childhood friends to lovers story. It’s pretty much a standalone chapter…it doesn’t need more. It’s a good, cute pallette cleanser.

Was it really a 1 chapter novel?

Wait! What a cliffhanger!! Is it really just one chapter? The last few dialogue bubbles are from ludwig, and it’s a monologue like he didn’t say it out loud right?

Miscommunication

A little odd, really bad miscommunication which is not my favourite. Could've been resolved if they just explained earlier. Overall sweet story I guess

One shot 🥃

Short and sweet; sad it's just a one shot - the writing is good and had great potential! Hopefully this author/artist continues to make more work in the future

Too short

Too short for the price. I will say it is a cute story with miscommunication, but its not long enough.

TOO SHORT!!!!! 😫😫😫

TOO SHORT!! It’s so cute and sweet, great premise, interesting possibilities for world building. But I just.. I NEED EXPANSION. I want fleshed out. I want more of his obsessive actions. There’s so many things I’m being teased with (that I love!) in this manga. Driving me CRAZY

For too short for a one-shot

I feel that it ended without being actually finished. As a one-shot story, it should have been longer, maybe even have some scenes showing them properly communicating about their misunderstandings.

Super short One shot

I liked it but the preview is more than half the story. Even for a one shot it really should have been like double the length.

It was cute but a little disappointing

This review contains spoilers. The plot is very predictable. It was obvious that Julianna was Ludwig’s mate from the get go, and the fact that Ludwig knew this when they were kids is basically the premise of every “yandere-ish” male lead lol. The only real shocker of the manga is that the royal family has to offer their hair ONCE before adulthood to their mate and their mate has to accept for them to be recognized as a pair. I just don’t get why Ludwig couldn’t just TELL her that she was his mate when they were older—would’ve saved them a lot of trouble, but I know he thought she was rejecting him when he asked LMAO. And to be fair, Julianna did irk me a little bit. She wanted to leave him but cuts off his hair while knowing the significance of it because she wanted it as a souvenir??? I’m pretty sure the author just wasn’t sure how to go about making Ludwig and Julianna get together and rushed it.

Had potential but . . .

This review contains spoilers. The set up and premise of this were interesting enough for me to give it a try, but the ML’s internal response to the FL’s rejection of the marriage ended up raising a lot of red flags for me and came across as creepy rather than cute. Really ruined what would’ve been a nice short story for me.

Cute but so short

It's very cute, the setting and art are good. But it's too short, this would have been better if the story continued on... Not worth it imo

Not worth the amount you pay

It's so short and fast, it's not even satisfying. It could have been stretched to build deep character even in one volume. If felt rushed at the end.

良かった♡

That was great ♡

This review contains spoilers. え、なんだか可愛かった。ほんわかとゆうか、最後ニヤッとして読み終わってしまった。途中からルーの心の回想シーンがあって。最後のあの先、もうちょっと見たかったー！！それを知った反応をみたかったーーー！！！

This review contains spoilers. Eh, it was kind of cute. Heavily, I finished reading it with a grin at the end. There was a recollection scene of Lou's heart starting in the middle. I wanted to see a little more past the end!! I wanted to see the reaction of knowing that!!

あらあら〜

ahhhh~

短いけどストーリーも面白いしすごくよくまとまっていて買って大正解でした。普通の100ページ超えのある1巻として読みたいぐらい設定やストーリーやキャラが良かったです。

It's short, but the story is interesting, and it's really well organized, so I bought it and it was a great answer. The settings, story, and characters were so good that I wanted to read it as a normal volume with over 100 pages.

I want to see the continuation

どうか、続きを書いてくださいもしくは、それぞれの日々をもっと詳しく周囲の人も巻き込んで、読ませて欲しいです短編で終わるには惜し過ぎる

Please write the continuation, or I want people around me to get involved in each day in more detail and read it too much to end with a short story

え、続きを…！

Eh, continue...!

This review contains spoilers. 読みやすい長さ、綺麗な絵柄、人物も2人だけでまとめられた話だからこそファンタジーな設定も気にならない読みやすさで面白かった……ってか、続きは！！？？　これ寧ろ短過ぎやん！？！？　続きが気になる！！　この一瞬ヤンデレが過ぎるとこまで含めて、魅力的過ぎる2人のラブラブな結婚式を是非とも見たいです。そして様子がおかしくなったのは寧ろヒロインの方だろ、とだけ添えさせて（笑）

This review contains spoilers. The length is easy to read, the beautiful design, and the characters were put together by only 2 people, so it was interesting because it was easy to read without worrying about fantasy settings... so what's more!!?? this is rather too short!?!? I'm worried about the continuation!! I definitely want to see the lovey-dovey wedding between these two people who are too charming, including until this momentary yandere has passed. And I only added that the heroine was the one who made things strange (laughs)
