If at that place'southward a unmarried affair that disappoints me more than anything else about the manga adaptation of I Swear I Won't Carp Y'all Again!, it's how watered down it is. The original low-cal novel is dark and, while it is on the surface a reborn-villainess story, at its core it's almost how an abused daughter learns to find coping mechanisms and to trust that some people will be in that location for her even if her family will non. That's not the case with the manga. Most of the emotional abuse Violette suffers at the hands of her parents is completely left out or toned down, huge chunks of her past are ignored, and Yulan is practically neutered as a character.
To be clear, it'southward not that I want Violette to suffer or that I particularly enjoy dark stories. Rather it's that the source novel stands out in its crowded fields – it's also a loop story, where someone gets to go dorsum in time to correct a mistake – and this version takes away so much of what makes it special that it ends up being simply like whatsoever other story in its subgenres. Since the writer mentioned in her afterword to the novel that she had started out to write a rom-com then something happened, this could be done to recreate the original vision she had for the piece of work. But sometimes stories evolve by our original ideas for a reason.
In whatsoever event, the manga version of Violette'due south story opens with her starving herself in prison after having been bedevilled of the attempted murder of her half-sister, Maryjune. Shortly afterwards Violette's birth, her male parent fled the ducal manor and moved in with his mistress, and so when Violette's mother died, he came back, bringing his mistress (now his second wife) and their daughter with him. Information technology'due south clear that he favors Maryjune, and this time Violette is determined not to let that bother her. She's going to stay away from her family unit and in two years, when she's eighteen, she'll join a convent and live out her days peacefully. Naturally things tin't work out quite that neatly, and she's soon ended up operation as Maryjune's de facto protector in her attempts to avoid her doom, and THIS catches the attention of the one boy she was desperate for her offset time around and at present is every bit desperate to avoid, Prince Claudia. What's a reformed villainess to do?
Okay, wait. This is fine, really, merely to see Violette go from a person with legitimate trauma and emotional issues to a bog-standard reborn villainess is a major footstep downward. To have Yulan get a nonentity instead of a driving force is too a detraction. Even Violette'due south begetter isn't every bit hitting every bit he was earlier, and all of this adds upwardly to an adaptation that's simply less than. This is a case where I'd emphatically propose reading the novel over its manga version any day.
