I returned to migrating my library away from Mangadex (I was lazy and took a break as doing so on a phone is a pain), while doing so I realised that some of the series I’ve moved over before stopped being updated on the new site and had to transfer them again. A bit annoying but thanks to that I found there were new chapters to catch up on and did just that. Other than that I’m still on the same binge as last week this time.

I Shall Master This Family
I caught up with all the available chapters and I can safely say I love this series. It’s engaging, has great art (and outfits!) and is simply a joy to read. It’s actually kind of bad because I ended up binging it too eagerly (as in, to the point of losing on sleep). Good thing I’ll have to wait for the updates now, I guess?

Random thoughts:

• I hate the extravagant displays of wealth. This isn’t a problem with the series specifically (it obviously fits the story) but rather a general sentiment I have towards such things.
• So many sweet and emotional moments, I love it!
• Lorraine is precious and has to be protected at all cost.
• I feel sorry for Ramona, getting NTR’d by a higher power sucks.
• I’m not a fan of the magical elements in the story and think they don’t bring anything of value to the series. Thankfully they are extremely rare and don’t add much (except for 2 or so events) but that only makes me feel they could’ve been removed without losing anything.

Spoiler thoughts

I don’t really like Perez x Tia pairing - not because I don’t like either of them or think they don’t have chemistry but rather… it just doesn’t feel like an equal relationship. Perez feels too emotionally dependent on Tia due to all that happened between them. Besides, Ramona losing her fated love interest is just sad.
I hope Tia can stick to her plan on that one.
