    😁The first novel is concise and easy to read, with a fairly normal plot development. At least the female protagonist never gives up on escaping and resisting.

The female protagonist tries to resist many times to no avail, and after being imprisoned on an island, she is completely desperate and can only drown in the sea with the yandere.
