Real/Fake Princess 2
Posted: January 7, 2008 Filed under: Real/Fake Princess Leave a comment »Things move away from being a series of misunderstandings between the two main characters to being more of a love story. Much of the volume is about the main female going back to her old village for a couple days to say goodbye to her loved one, accompanied by the Royal Seeker. The Royal Seeker may be developing feelings for the girl too, and vice versa, which worries me since… well, you’re not sure how that will work out.
We find out that the Emperor might not be… well, holding the best interest of the empire to heart. It’s possible that he doesn’t actually want to find more relatives since a tax has to be payed for every royal, apparently he isn’t interested in pushing forward and reclaiming (?) the kingdom’s land from invaders, and he also is apparently uninterested in evidence about rebellions. So the collapse of the kingdom is another possibility down the road.
The series is still pretty mediocre, though. The plot isn’t terribly exciting, and I don’t really like any of the characters so far. But like I said, I’ll finish it because it’s only five volumes.
