Synopsis

It is a mystery why the late Marquess Johannes von Neuschwanstein decided to marry a 16-year-old girl barely older than his eldest child. Whatever the reason, Shuli is left to shoulder heavy responsibilities as marchioness after his death. On top of the responsibility to manage a prestigious household with close ties to the empire's royal family, she becomes stepmother to four children who deeply mistrust her.

For seven years, Shuli dedicates herself to raising the children well and safeguarding the family fortune. She believes she only has to wait until her son Jeremy will take over as head of the family—then she can live freely. However, on the long-awaited day of his wedding, she is caught up in a tragic accident.

When Shuli next opens her eyes, she finds herself in the past, hours before Johannes' funeral. Although uncertain why she has been granted a second chance at life, this time she is determined to build relationships with the children as well as allow for her own happiness.

It is one of the best drama ever been created, anyone who gives this 8/10 or lower is not valid and should be banished. Emotionally Suffocating is the best way I can describe this masterpiece of art, having to watch Shuri going through her life as a single young stepmother in a world where a single miss-step could cause everything to crumble.

The incredible plot writing showcases the everchanging unexpected future. The ethereal majestic art perfectly brings out the emotions, the mood, and the ambiance that makes me feel as if I'm there witnessing it 1st hand. The realistic remarkable character writing and their growth ...

▶Summary and recommendation: -----------------------------------------------------------------
[The Fantasie of a Stepmother] is an Otome Isekai story focused on child rearing, and the theme of trying to live up to the expectations of your parents. I recommend it to fans of the genre, with the caveat that it is very slow.

So slow that I ended up dropping it at chapter 91.
It is good. With the gorgeous artstyle, the expressive scenes and a multifaceted storyline, I can not deny that, but it is not for me.

▶Story: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The story is set in an alternate reality/history Holy Roman Empire sometime ...
