The Tyrant's Sister · review
This is a story where you might need to overlook the art some in the first season (first 73 chapters). It's often too faintly-defined and so it can be difficult seeing, but it shows the needed improvement towards the second season. . This is a comedy-heavy story. While there is a proper story to be told and various plots ready and utilized from the get-go, the comedy takes a strong focus and carries the story along so fluidly you're amazed you've read as much as you had. At the very least, the dialogue is always easy to read. In any case, FL a young womanwhose first life was an editor. She was a perfectionist and good at anything she set her mind to, so when her sister asked for her professional opinion on her story, she got on her sister's bad side. Her sister's story became popular and, contrary to her sister's opinion, FL read it. FL then was isekai'd into the very character her sister wrote to take her anger out on her: the future tyrant's half-sister, an otherworldly blacksmith commoner, gifted with immense beauty, and fated to die a lonely death.
FL realized it instantly. And after coming to terms with it, she then raised her new younger sibling – the future tyrant – to be a decent person. The two possess an incredibly realistic sibling bond and only a fool would overlook how much they love the other. And so, when time came for the story to begin, FL was brought to the castle as planned because her brother wouldn’t suffer the royal life alone.
Now as an unofficial princess, FL begins raising her brother as a future king – read: not a tyrant – with various hurdles she barely realizes she’s overcome. She even lands a lover whom her brother has idolized even back when he thought he was a commoner, earning her yet another venue to help reign the boy in.
The story is still unfolding and the cast is ever lively and well-developed. The world is well established and FL knows what she wants, on top of what others want. Even if they say nothing.
