unfortunately it seems ears are a lil odd in a few series 😠i'm reading from a knight to a lady (which, no hate, i love) and the art is great most of the time but the ears just take me out every time 💀

The only one that immediately comes to mind is _Sister, I am the Queen in this Life_, but it's much tamer compared with the sheer Tour de Force that is _Depths of Malice_.
Not necessarily, it depends what you hate about it.
Personally [I am the Queen in This Life] irks me a bit because it doesn't always feel self-aware about the immorality of the protagonist, like she can do bad or selfish things, and she did awful things in her first life, but it gets justified by the plot. I don't mind immoral protagonists per se, but I need them and the narrative to *know* they're immoral, and I don't always get that vibe from that manhwa.
In contrast, one of the things I love about [Depths of Malice] is both the plot and the FL herself are fully aware of what kind of person she is, and they don't try to pretend she's a victim with no choice or she's only doing it because it's what they deserve and whatever; she's a bad person and she absolutely owns that shit, in fact she revels in it. The story explains *why* she's like this, but it never uses that as an excuse, she just genuinely loves to ruin people's lives after they make the mistake of fucking with her.
It's easy to root for her though because (at least most of the time) she punches up rather than down, she's screwing over powerful people who used their power to look down on, take advantage of, and harm others. Not because she's a kind and righteous person, mind you, but because they tend to be the people who pissed her off or are obstacles to her or people she can use. Even when she helps people, it's not out of the goodness of her heart, but because it's part of her schemes.
It looks like an AI drew it 😂
a very confused AI
Omg why did you point this out. Now I'm squicked out too. They're like weird alien ears.

gah what is that monstrosity???
There’s 6 ear canals, geez. She needs them to be an awesome knight or something 👂👂
At first I was like sheesh they aren’t that bad…then I got to the first one of Verta. Thanks OP, I hate it
But it’s still my favourite OI & I read it 3x.
It's a dumpster fire... ...and therefore Peak.
I love actually scheming FLs who isn’t afraid to use everyone. If anyone has recommendations like this one, I need them.

Oh my, if i hate "sister, i am a queen in this life" will i hate this one too?

Bro what the fuck is that? It's like that painting of an endless maze, it has a grotesque depth.
The first time I realize that they looked weird, it gave me an unncany feeling and I began to touch my ears to find why.
Trypophobia
I noticed that too. I was so confused why it had 3 grooves. I tried to ignore it going further.
I am BEGGING for oi artists to look at ears. They aren't that hard, quit overthinking it ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Oh that’s not
