This story deserved about 25-50 (maybe even 75) more chapters to really flesh everything out that it wanted to do. I loved the plot with Libertia's memories however the climax was both rushed and dragged out. It's not a true reverse harem as it is not a harem ending, she does pick one.
However, I was moved to tears many times, I took a megaton of screenshots and while the romance was meh, I love the relationship between Libertia and our FL. I reccomend this story to those who want a pure FL, no (full on) white lotus, and want a story focused on friendships rather ... than fully caring about a complex plot. It's not a junk food story, but it also isn't a masterpiece that'll be forever perfect in your mind. It really suits an 7‐8/10 ranking. So close, but narrowly missing the mark.

This manhwa is an overall solid 8 for its first 50 or so chapters. It's really comedic, entertaining and fun, having a plot that's centered around ridiculous misunderstandings

BUT holy crap are the last 10 or so chapters absolute torture to read. It's like the author grabbed some random internet stranger's fanfic and decided "Right, let's make this the canon ending". I'm not exaggerating - the last few chapters are so bad that to me, they reduced the enjoyment of the story from an 8 to a 6. When isolated, the last chapters are so fcking dumb that by themselves they'd have a score of 3, ... because except for the art, everything else in those chapters is super stupid. The ideas were kinda there but the execution was beyond horrible

I guarantee you, you'll really enjoy reading the first season, but stay away from whatever the hell happened with season 2/ending

The beginning of this manhwa started off real strong. It was a lovely premise where the protagonist is transmigrated into a novel and wishes to save the supporting characters who would all die because of the main couple. She prevents the supporting characters from getting tangled with the main couple and develops friendly relationships with them. The illness she has only making it that much better because everyone is genuinely worrying about her because of the misunderstanding it creates. However, it became VERY disappointing after 50 chapters because everything felt rushed or like there were too many plot holes. One of the supporting characters suddenly ... turns into the male lead, and the romance between him and the protagonist just felt way too forced. The interactions between him and the protagonist weren't really impactful. All her talk about only wanting to be friends with all the supporting characters of the novel turned out to be a lie. It was like the author was slamdunking on the relationships with the other male characters that felt much more real and genuine than this. Now all the focus has been shifted towards the male lead and the other characters are seen way less. It was an absolutely terrible idea to make her fall in love out of nowhere with no warning. There is no way to describe the entrance of the ML other than to say that it was like a nuclear bomb completely blew up this manhwa. If the story didn't turn out like this and he was introduced differently, the manhwa would have been amazing.
