Season 1: (Chapters 1-43)
Enjoying the story thus far, but I'll be honest in that I don't really care for the romance aspect- considering everything Rubia went through I do just 'want her to rest' and not have to deal with all of the annoyances
Sorry if that's rude but sometimes the other characters-even romantic of friendly relationships seems that way at times...even though its nice everyone cares for her. Looking forward to seeing how she will continue her school life and what happens with her crappy family.

Laid back. The MC is a strong figure in a weak body. Extremely beautiful too! I love how the MC is not easily swayed and pursues what she wants. She does what she likes and if she decides on to something, she goes with it, no matter what the other people say. She is rational and I like that about her. She is really strong mentally which makes this manhwa a joy to read. Also, she is very relatable! I want to live like a sloth too haha!

Sesuai judulnya, manhwa ini bercerita tentang seorang gadis yang lelah dengan kehidupannya. Tidak heran jika dia merasa lelah. Dia sudah bereinkarnasi berkali-kali menjadi sosok yang berbeda. Pada saat dia mendapati dirinya bereinkarnasi menjadi seorang putri bangsawan, dia berniat untuk hidup seperti kukang. Sayangnya, rencananya menjadi berantakan karena ada banyak orang yang justru terlibat dengannya.
Premis seperti ini butuh lebih banyak showing daripada telling supaya karakter utamanya tidak menjadi Mary Sue/Gary Stu. Pacing-nya pun harus tepat agar tidak terasa dipaksakan. Dan Lady Wants To Rest memenuhi dua syarat ini.
Chapter-chapter awal menunjukkan bagaimana proses perjalanan Rubia dari seorang putri yang tidak berperasaan menjadi sosok yang dikagumi orang lain. Pengalaman dari kehidupan-kehidupan lampaunya membentuk cara berpikirnya yang dianggap unik bagi orang lain. Tidak hanya itu, ada beberapa adegan yang menunjukkan momen ketika Rubia secara tidak sengaja menyelamatkan murid di akademinya karena malas melihat keributan di sekitarnya. Terkadang dia juga membantu murid lain karena dia tidak tahan menyaksikan kesombongan murid-murid yang menurutnya masih amatir. Momen-momen seperti inilah yang membuatku paham mengapa orang-orang menjadi tertarik pada Rubia.
Sejauh ini, aku cukup menikmati plotnya. Semua konflik dalam season pertama diselesaikan dengan cara yang memuaskan. Solusi yang diberikan pun konsisten dengan latar ceritanya sehingga tidak ada momen deus ex machina yang mengganggu alur cerita.
Dilihat dari chapter terakhir, tampaknya season berikutnya akan ada konflik yang melibatkan keluarga Rubia. Ini menarik. Ku pikir Grand Duke akan diam, mengingat apa yang sudah dia lakukan terhadap Rubia yang asli. Aku jadi tidak sabar menantikan season berikutnya rilis. Semoga plot cerita pada season selanjutnya dapat semenarik atau bahkan melebihi season pertama.

I truly loved Rubia and how she was leaving her home without some cliche. Every action and every Rubia's move was slaying my heart. She doesn't typically female lead who need support and contemplate to much... this was peaceful story, with a strong backstory but there's no revenge. Ruby just need to rest and enjoying life.. her spirit is mine.
But for some of the first chapter.. the maid is kinda annoying, she is not to much help for Rubia (I hope she just left behind.)
ps. I would gladly joining the Rubia Lover Club

Fun with good art, but nothing really stood out as unique or exciting. The MC is typically OP and fails to blend in despite desperately wanting to- which is a necessary plot device, but grates a little. Still, she's endearing and it's fun to watch her unwittingly winning over all the secondary character and building her loyal following.
Ultimately, I got bored after about 50 episodes and dropped it, but in a different mood I could easily have finished it because the pacing was consistent and the characters were cute.

I loved this season so much that I started the novel and I swear Rubia is such a great character, I want to be like her hahaha
The story, the character, the development of the story are just amazing and again, Rubia made everything better! She thought me a lot with her story and nature

I'm surprised at the low ratings on this site. This is one of the best on Tapas, in my opinion. It's really funny.

Season One: Ch 1-43
Awakening into her 54th life one month after her last death, a cursed soul finds herself in the body of Rubia De Grandia. This first daughter of the Luxen duchy died alone due to fever and has no warm memories of her family. Having lived many lifestyles in the last thousand years, this time she just wants to loaf about and rest. First she leaves the manor and enrolls in Linette University for the free room and board. On occasion her anger at the mistreatment or scheming of those around her causes her to lash out from her rest. When her test scores and behaviors attract attention she works to find a to be expelled.
* * * * *---------* * * * *---------* * * * *
This rebirth tale has the typical arranged marriages, social status conflicts, helpful servants, and angry peers. The gimmick this time is that our OP protagonist tends to fail upwards counter to her plans instead of intentionally. Also her depression creates a different tone to the events as she misses the people she has loved over the years. Interestingly her tendency to see everyone as struggling children makes her compassionate and aloof. The faces lack a bit of emotion but the artwork otherwise is solid. It is not the fanciest webtoon but it conveys a sense of time, place, and personality. The pacing is slow, very slice of life so far. The mysteries and main storyline remain just seeds in the background, but that is pretty typical of opening seasons.

It was fun watching how all her plans to become a sloth end up backfiring, really. The art is pretty, and I honestly prefer it over the art in the promo/one-shot chapter too.
I hope we'll get some more insight on her past lives in season two though, especially on her 53rd life, the one with Leopold.
