My Fiancé Cheated, But a New Love Rings! (Manga) Volume 1

by Ehito, Chris Craigo (Translator), Azumaya (Illustrator)

The future looks bleak for Sophelia von Lotus. The behavior of her arranged fiancé, the crown prince, leaves much to be desired, and her family makes her feel like a stranger in her own home. Even so, she is committed to her duties as the future crown princess, enduring hardship and humiliation alike for the good of the kingdom. That is, until Sophelia catches her husband-to-be in a compromising position with her younger sister! Seeing her chance to escape the miserable future awaiting her, Sophelia screams to alert everyone to her fiancé’s indiscretion, and help comes running in the shape of Sir Livionis, a dashing knight (and longtime secret admirer) who urges her to run away with him. Abandoning the only life she has ever known, Sophelia takes his hand and tumbles into a heartstopping romance and a completely new life. But what awaits this young couple as a new love rings?

Meh. The constant melting at each other’s cuteness got old really quickly. I’m with Matcha on that one.

3, not horrible but kind of run of the mill, stars.

This is a simple story, but it's the art that elevated it to 5* for me.

You get almost the standard MC getting her fiance stolen by her stepsister, with some differences from the usual tropes: MC was the one who wanted to break the engagement, MC wasn't a villainess, the stepsister was just stupid instead of malicious. It also lacked a broken engagement scene, since MC ran away and faked her death before it could happen.

The ML in this story was a selling point for me. He's a golden retriever and a green flag in one, while the MC, so far, hasn't shown much distinctive trait beyond being kind and hardworking. Their interactions are very cute and sweet, borderline diabetes-level.

Looking forward to the next volume.

A little rough, but funny. Livionis is so crazy about her, and the two keep thinking the other is so cute. The bonus chapter from Matcha’s POV was hilarious.

Love a couple that stans one another. The rest of it? Meh.
