Briefly about Surviving as an Illegitimate Princess manga:
“Don’t look down on me just because I’m a child! Even though I look like this, this is my 10th life!”I’m an illegitimate princess whose life was cut short after being misunderstood for having the same blood as the enemy country and died early. After nine tragic repetitions, I discovered the identity of my biological father. He is Paeon, a war hero who defeated the demon king and the strongest holy knight in the continent. He had a forbidden relationship with the princess, had me, and then deserted me!In order to survive the harsh royal palace, I’ve decided to use and then abandon this impudent father. I will become the strongest as fast as I can and escape from this disgusting country!And so, while I was building my strength, I happened to meet the demon king’s son, Leo. He wasn’t arrogant like his father, but he was pitifully living in captivity. So, I took care of him in secret.”Asha, you cannot get engaged to anyone.””…Huh? Why?””Because I’ll take responsibility for you forever.””What?!””We spent the night together.”…What is this prince saying?A father and holy knight who had (?) a forbidden love. Along with an enemy prince who is trying (!) to have a forbidden love. With them, can the unfortunate princess change her fate?
I couldn’t get pass the synopsis.
Jokes apart, I managed to get to chap 120 despite my hate for yaoi/otome art style (see attached pic, it makes me puke when strong straight males are drawn with that blushing beaten-dog face) and despite the very mild, unoriginal plot.
It’s not “bad” but I felt that 50% of it was filler, not because it lacked action (I enjoy good slice of life) but because it was just boring af.
The story itself isn’t too bad but personally I feel that the major plot-line has found closure with chap 120 and I don’t have enough appreciation for this story to bookmark it.
