Lady VS Saint

My Thoughts on Lady VS Saint

"Lady VS Saint" promised a cute, enemies-to-lovers yuri story set in a magic academy, and I dove in hoping for some fluffy, lighthearted fun. Overall, I wasn't disappointed! It's a quick read, perfect for when you want something sweet and engaging without a massive commitment.

First Impressions

The premise is classic: a proud, top-of-her-class witch, Laura Ashley, gets dethroned by the seemingly indifferent Ann Summers. Laura, unused to losing, declares a rivalry, and the stage is set for academic battles and, of course, blossoming feelings. My initial impression was that this was a familiar setup, but I was curious to see how the author would put their own spin on it.

What Works Well

The dynamic between Laura and Ann is definitely the highlight. Laura's arrogance, born from a lifetime of being the best, is endearing rather than grating. Her determination to beat Ann, even when Ann seems completely unbothered, is genuinely funny. The way their rivalry evolves into something more felt natural and well-paced, even within the short length of the story.

I also appreciated how the story explores Laura's confusion as she grapples with her feelings for Ann. It felt relatable, even with the magical setting. It captured the awkwardness and slow realization that can come with understanding your feelings for someone of the same gender. The story is a heartwarming exploration of self-discovery wrapped in a fun, magical package.

Final Verdict

"Lady VS Saint" is a delightful little story that delivers exactly what it promises: a cute, enemies-to-lovers yuri romance. While it might not be groundbreaking, it executes its tropes well and provides a satisfying, heart-warming read. If you're looking for a quick and enjoyable escape into a world of magic, rivalry, and blossoming love, I definitely recommend giving this one a try.
