Is Roxana Worth Reading? Review & Where to Read
Gorgeous and genuinely dark — a poison-soaked villainess fantasy that's one of the prettiest around, with the hard catch that it's stalled mid-story on indefinite hiatus.
Spoiler-light · Honestly rated
Every review labels its spoiler level, separates art from writing, and ends with an official way to read.
We use the whole 1–10 scale and judge each title against the best version of what it is trying to be — a comedy on how funny it is, a thriller on its tension — not against some other genre. As a rough guide: 9+ is all-time great, 8 excellent, 7 a solid recommendation with caveats, 5–6 mixed or average. A 7 is a genuine yes, not a knock. The “Community score” in each review is the crowd rating from AniList, MAL, and MangaUpdates, shown next to ours for comparison.
One of the few villainess webtoons more interested in grief and homesickness than romance or revenge — and it's gorgeous while it does it.

Sharp and funny, this takedown of villainess and reverse-harem clichés is carried by a blunt, principled, hilarious heroine — refreshing, if sometimes heavy-handed and repetitive.

Carried by a cool, brilliant heroine and sharp court intrigue, this is a standout villainess manhwa — let down only by familiar genre bones and a slow romance.

One of the stronger villainess regression manhwa — sharp scheming, a morally gray heroine, and gorgeous art, dragged a little by a long revenge plot and a thin romance.
