Yuri
Humour-filled manhua that blends elements of historical fiction, romance, and comedy, with fantasy. It's about an OP Li Jing, who unknowingly marries the Empress of a kingdom after a series of events involving mistaken identity and fate. On the surface, the story might seem like a typical “man marries a powerful woman” trope, but it takes it a step further by turning everything upside down with humour and political intrigue.
Li Jing, though charming and clever, is hilariously unaware of his wife’s true identity. The Empress, remains a figure of immense power and mystery. As the plot progresses, the layers of their relationship start to unfold, with romance, political manoeuvring, and the occasional clash of egos.
The Empress herself is initially shrouded in mystery, her intelligence, strength, and grace shine through as the plot progresses. She’s not a typical “damsel in distress” as she’s often the one saving Li Jing from trouble, which adds a layer of dynamic strength to their relationship.
Supporting characters might feel a bit one-dimensional, but they still serve to move the plot forward and provide additional humour and conflict.
The tone is light-hearted and comedic, but there are moments of genuine drama and tension. The balance between the two is handled well, ensuring the story never becomes too heavy or too silly. The power dynamics between Li Jing and the Empress provide an interesting commentary on relationships, especially when roles are reversed, with the wife being the dominant figure in the marriage.
What Works
Comedy: The comedic timing is spot-on, especially in the early chapters when Li Jing has no idea who his wife really is.
Unique Premise: The idea of a man unknowingly marrying the Empress is fresh and offers plenty of opportunities for comedy and character development.
Romantic and Political Balance: The manhua strikes a good balance between romance and political intrigue, making it more than just a simple love story.
What Could Be Better
Pacing: At times, the story can feel a bit slow, especially in the middle chapters where the focus shifts away from major plot developments to more comedic situations. This might frustrate readers who are looking for more intense action or drama.
Supporting Characters: While the main characters are well-developed, some of the supporting cast could use more depth. They often feel like plot devices rather than fully fleshed-out individuals.
Predictability: The story can sometimes feel predictable, especially if you're familiar with manhua tropes. The "secretly powerful wife" is not a new concept, and some readers may feel like they’ve seen similar stories before.
PLOT 5/10 - It's not much of a plot, but by no means is it a bad plot, just nothing worth mentioning.
ROMANCE 9/10 - No unnecessary drama, only what you need pure romance of a (not normal) married couple. Also, it's not like one of them is really dominant and the other one is really shy, they're balanced and have really good chemistry
ACTION 6/10 - Again it's nothing worth mentioning, it's good but at the level for a lot of wuxia based stories.
COMEDY 8/10 - It's funny in good amounts, it'll keep you entertained along the whole way. Just a bit repetitive.
OVERALL about a 7/10
Also what the hell has happened? No updates?
Some Konosuba or Gintama should do the job.
P.S. Anyone can feel free to list some more funny comedy anime recommendations. (mangas/manhwas/manhuas too)
So the best thing is to get married to a person from a religious household, who follows the same faith as you.
As a rule of thumb, the first girl should be the one to end up with the mc, she should actually care about the mc.
