Shoujo Content addressing mental health

While Shoujo and Josei genres have always appealed to using drama as driving plot points, a many great deal of them have failed to take into account the mental distress that came with these events, only briefly touching the surface by explaining why characters turned out the way they did but never really going in depth.

But perhaps, with the boom of mental health awareness and the constructive criticism of the readers of the genres that they are starting to take into account trauma, abuse and the mental stature of their characters. Here are some recommendations with such themes.

1. The Monster Duchess and the Contract Princess

Synopsis: Leslie is the second daughter of a Noble Family, the Sperado’s, but she had never been treated as such. Her life existed for her older sister, Eli. When she barely escapes from her family throwing her into the fire to awaken her sister’s magical abilities, Leslie decides to find herself an ally that not even they could carelessly touch — Duchess Salvatore, also called The Monster Duchess, a war hero who is both feared and respected throughout the land. Leslie strikes up a contract stating that she, in exchange for using her powers, be adopted as the first lady of the Salvatore Family.

Monster Duchess and Contract Princess is a webtoon series that deals with childhood trauma and abuse. The MC, Leslie, has been abused by the Sperado family but upon her entrance at the Salvatore mansion, the people around her learn to be patient and treat her kindly, not simply out of pity but of genuine love and care. Leslie’s trauma does not magically disappear and her new family helps her step by step to move past it at her own pace. The story, while maintaining its dramatic fantasy plot, never forgets to address Leslie’s concerns and her communication with Duchess Salvatore and her other family members.

2. A False Confession

Synopsis: A drunk healer wills herself to confess her love for the kind prince she fought together with during a military expedition. After uttering the words “I like you”, she has come to a sudden realization, that in her drunk stupor, she has confessed to the wrong person. Instead of her beloved prince, she had whispered words of love to the “Grim Reaper” of the battlefield, Duke Cabel Willard. But before she could take back her words, he smiles as if it had been the most natural thing to do and asks her to call him more intimately. “Cabel. Call me by my name instead.” She knew, in that moment, that her life would end if she admits that had given him a false confession.

A False Confession surprisingly dealt with PTSD quite well. After her confession to the Duke, the storyline reverts back to the time the military expedition occured and while it may not have been the toughest battle of their kingdom, it was a battlefield no less. Throughout the chapters, we see the healer deal with both PTSD and survivor’s guilt as the story progressed. While the story also focuses a lot on romance, this addition that chose to not blindly romanticize war and the battlefield left a good impression.

3. The Evil Lady's Hero

Synopsis: Reincarnated as Yunifer Magnolia, a villainess fated to die, this new Yunifer now decides that to stay alive, she will avoid all the main characters of the novel, mainly her best friend, Rael, Yunifer’s supposed crush and Rael’s lover, Ishid and the Crown prince Cassian. With enough effort she thought she had done well so far except for one mistake… A one-night stand with Ishid ends up with them dating! Will she still be able to live peacefully as initially planned?

The Evil Lady’s Hero is still short but seems promising. While like The Monster Duchess and Contract Princess it deals with childhood trauma, it handles it a bit differently as the person dealing with it has already grown into adulthood. Ishid, the male lead, has suffered a great deal of emotional trauma and in turn has grown to be extremely selfless to the point that he would willingly give things up for the sake of others so that he would not inconvenience them. The reincarnated Yunifer is quick to notice this and is trying to always ease him into doing things for his own sake. It is rather soft for a story that started with a one night stand but the way Yunifer tries to help Ishid is always endearing.

If you guys know anymore please do share!

DISTRACTED REAL LIFE?

Sekarang rasanya lebih gampang jatuh cinta sama karakter komik daripada manusia. Dari komik kita bisa menilai orang dari cara komikus dan naratornya. Its is real a good person or not? Kayak gitu kan... banyak komik2 tsundere yang cowoknya super dingin misterius dan selalu keliatan kayak punya banyak rahasia. Rasanya walaupun dia Evil Prince pun ada hal yg mendasari kenapa dia jadi Evil pun dengan sense romantic-slash-comedy yang rasanya kayak ga mungkin banget gitu di dunia nyata kejatohan cowok model beginian.

I like this drawing portrait of Ishid Lucrenze.❤

Udah sempurna banget. Sayangnya dia ga real aja. Kalopun ada keknya dia entah ada di belahan dunia mana gitu deh.

Bedanya dunia komik dan sebenernya... kalau di komik alurnya kayak kepaksa. Maksudnya pasti ada hal mendasari 'why' that Male Lead should have attached sama Female Leadnya. Bisa dalam alasan apapun dari yang mulai masuk akal sampe ga habis pikir kok bisa. Dari mulai emang suka dari pandangan pertama sampe alasan nikah kontrak segala. Its common story of manhwa's world. Appalagi kalo genre yang isekai gitu. Rasanya kayak lebih imaginatif dan maksa banget tapi anehnya emang itu kan yang diinginkan dari imajinasi imajinasi orang orang. Kayak kapan lagi bisa halu yang di fasilitasi gambar yang bagus dan cerita yang bikin penasaran terus. Kapan lagi bisa bayangin tidur eh bangun bangun udah jadi princess di dunia masa lalu yang tiba tiba harus kepaksa jatuh cinta sama seorang Prince/Duke ganteng nan dingin tapi punya banyak masa lalu kelam?

Itu kayak sesuatu yang pernah dibayangin mungkin ada di dunia but its not always relate with you. Di dunia nyata, sulit sekali mengejar cerita dengan alur seperti itu. Kayaknya selama dalam hidupku aku ga pernah ketemu orang dengan alur begitu dramatis ala ala komik. Mungkin yang lebih rumit sih ada, cuman dia ga selalu berakhir dengan ketemu pangeran ganteng dan jatuh cinta.

Di dunia ini yang lebih masuk akal dan sudah terencana, porsi porsi cerita dalam hidup yang sudah teratur bentuknya. Dan manusia hanya bisa menerima. Kita berada di posisi bidak bidak komik (kalau boleh di posisikan) hanya saja.... kita diposisi yang tidak di naratorkan dengan jelas. Kita juga tidak akan tau apa yang terjadi kedepannya. Beda sama komik yg kalo mau tau tinggal beli koin aja. Kita juga ga pernah bisa tau narasi dua sisi dari tokoh tokoh lain. Kita hanya bisa menilai lewat diri kita sendiri.

Dan perihal apa di cerita kamu nanti kamu bakal ketemu pangeran, itu sedikit rumit sepertinya. Kayak hampir mustahil dan tergantung takdir dan circle hidup. Kamu ga bisa maksa kayak dikomik komik kamu harus ketemu dan nge date sama CEO perusahaan kayak Kang Taemu atau Kang Doojoon atau Duke Ishid Lucrenze yang kelewat ganteng itu. Apalagi maksa buat jadi istrinya dan happy ending forever. Itu udah kayak alur imajinatif yang ga bakal ada duniaa... heyy bangun!!

Itu sebabnya why people would always like the stroyline of comic. Bcz they would be so happy and fluterring when they read it and imagine if they were her or him what would happen next?

Seseorang selalu ingin merasa diterima dan dicintai dalam hidupnya. Dan kadang itu berkebalikan di dunia nyata. Empty place empty feel. Kalo kamu ga lagi suka dengan siapa pun, terus baca komik bucin... what can u do?

U feel like ohh that would be great if I have someone to... but in the same time... gosh no i even dont have a crush. Then u start to imagine again... but stop... semesta tempat kita berjalan itu beda rotasinya... you have to going down to earth again dan contemplate your feel and thinking. Rasanya aneh. Kayak udah berharap dan hempaskan ke dunia nyata yang gersang. Hahah..

Its always been funny if we talk about comics.

Thats always not relate with our real life.

(A/N : Tapi masih, gue masih berharap jadi Yunifer Magnolia pacarnya Ishid 😀)

isekai/reincarnation manhwas

Beatrice

Having previously been a slave in her youth, Chloe was revealed to be an illegitimate child of the King of Elpasa, and is raised to the level of a Princess and renamed Beatrice, all in order to secure a political marriage to a toady man, as the king was unwilling to marry his legitimate daughters to him. After two years of hellish marriage, the Kingdom of Elpasa falls before the blade of the Empire's Archduke, its greatest hero. In order to survive her new enslavement Princess Beatrice re-assumes the guise of 'Chloe' as a slave of the Empire. But then, she catches the eye of that very same hero...

The Archduke wonders who is this squirrelly short-haired young woman, who is so surprisingly educated for a slave, and who is terrified of him, not knowing that he butchered the Elpasa Royal Family in front of her and enslaved her himself. What will become of them, since she proves to be one of his only sources of levity?

Beware of the Villainess

I became the villainess of a novel! Do I hate it? No! I find it rather nice. A duke’s daughter = a jobless rich person. How I can miss out on a chance like this?! This is the best chance to just enjoy life. I should throw out the main plot and just live life how I want to! Not long after waking up as the villainess, I witnessed my fiancé, the novel’s male lead, the crowned prince, cheating. I saw him embrace a lady other than I and he was smiling so bright. I was brought to tears… Just kidding, I didn’t cry! My tears are worth too much to be wasted on that garbage. Instead of tears, I yelled out, “Your highness, are you trash?” The main character with a personality of a refreshing soda! The girl-crush protagonist that will completely throw out the main story! Why? Because it’s a waste for a girl to be surrounded by cheap cars. (cars = men)

Death is the Only Ending for the Villainess

Penelope Eckart reincarnated as the adopted daughter of Duke Eckart and the villainess of a reverse harem dating sim. The problem is, she entered the game at its hardest difficulty, and no matter what she does, death awaits her at every ending! Before the "real daughter" of Duke Eckart appears, she must choose one of the male leads and reach a happy ending in order to survive. But the two brothers always pick a fight with her over every little thing, as well as a crazy crown prince, whose routes all lead to death. There's even a magician who's enamoured with the female lead, and a loyal slave knight! But somehow, the favourability meters of the male leads increase the more she crosses the line with them!

Doctor Elise

Song Ji Hyeon is a surgeon, as well as a genius doctor appointed as the youngest lecturer at Seoul University. She carries memories of a previous life as Elise De Clorence who lived as a wicked woman. Suddenly an unexpected accident occurs and when she wakes up, she's back in her previous life?! Will Elise be able to correct her past mistakes?

Empress of Another World

Crossing over into another world and time after a freak accident, Korean highschool girl Sabina is taken in by a duke of the Crentia kingdom— only to soon be offered up to the ugly old emperor as a concubine. When the king is killed by a mysterious assassin, Sabina must face the poisonous circle of other candidates in a battle for the royal seat. Can she attract the loyalty and affection of the men and women she needs on her side to survive?

I Am a Child Of This House

"Pink Eyes", a young girl, has lived a life filled with battery and abuse by her mother, but she has two unexpected factors that may play a role in her life: first, she has gained memories of her previous life as Seo Young, a 23 year-old Korean woman, and second, she is a nobleman's illegitimate daughter.

One day, her prostitute mother takes her to the empire's sole Duke and claims that the girl is his child to gain alimony from him. Although he seems to not believe her, he nevertheless buys "Pink Eyes" for 20,000 gold. With that, her new life as "Estelle" starts.

I Became the Villain's Mother

I became the mother of 'Ainspanner', who was presumed to be the final mastermind of this novel. I was supposed to be a bad stepmother who abused him when he was a child and eventually became the first to be killed by him when he became an adult.

But in my desperate attempts to protect her, I got kidnapped instead! And as if that wasn't bad enough, my body is ridiculously weak to magic. But... strangely enough, whenever I'm by the emperor, I feel fine!

The only way to save the emperor, who's destined to die at the hands of his own son after marrying the villainess, and save myself from being afflicted by magic... is for us to marry!

Ariadna Lereg Ilestri Pre Agrigent. And so my life begins with this ridiculously long name, born to royalty and the centre of attention — all because of one dangerous man; the veritably insane tyrant king, ruthless conqueror of ten empires, nightmare of all continents… and my father?! Will I be able to survive this maniac?

The Evil Lady's Hero

Yunifer Magnolia was the best friend of the novel's heroine, Rael Cania, until her love for the male lead turned her into a villainess. Her harassment of Rael, Ishid's lover, condemned her to death at the hands of Cassian, the Crown Prince.
