    My favorite gender bender, my favorite romance story of all time Reborn as My Love Rival’s Wife! It's finally completely translated!!

    And the translator is amazing too! One of the best quality of translations I've seen out there!

    I'm just so happy. I wanted to talk about it last night when I found out...but didn't. Don't remember why but there was probably a good reason.

    Though I read all the raws through google translate 2 years ago already (or else I won't be able to call it my favorite...this much pain is necessary) but it still feels so nice to have my favorite novel be completed!

    Anyway, there is no point to this thread so to make a point why don't you send me illustrations of this novel?
    Does there exist any? Cause I've never seen anything else other than that cover picture from novelupdates. Is there at least any illustrations of Su Jian anywhere? Something like a fan art? What about the male Su Jian? I don't know if I wanna see that...no, fuck it, I do. lol (Wasn't there a spin-off BL extra somewhere at the end of a chapter with Su Jian's male version and the male lead in an ancient China setting? That was hilarious and kinda cute...the only time I read BL. haha)

    Well, if there was anything close to or better than this out there, then this wouldn't have become my favorite.

    Though you can try MaouSou
    Gender Bent Loli is not Cute
    Because I Reincarnated as a Succubus...
    My Best Friend Became a...
    TS Reincarnated as the Sub-Heroine
    It Seems That I've Slipped Into a Different world...
    Swamp Girl!
    Don't be so Proud!
    What's Your Gender, Princess?
    Hakai me no Yuuri

    There are the ones that you can check out. The last five are complete with one of those being almost complete, just give it a few days. Gender Bender is not a popular genre so some of them might be dropped by the translator even though they are really good. I didn't recommend a lot from my list just because I am still unsure where the romance is headed yet, if it'll be straight or yuri. Or I just didn't like them very much. Or because its basically porn. (I don't like porn or rapey stuff in novels very much)
    Go on my reading list if you wanna see more, I have 2 lists solely dedicated to gender bender. There won't be any yuri there other than two or three which I've just been recommended too much by other gender bender fans.

    And a bonus I'll throw in for you, I Became as the Hero's Mother After Reincarnating.

    Edit: You can also try Kanojo ni Naru hi. That's my favorite gender bender manga. It's also completed and quite similar in a way.

    Hey, there was a term used in the story. What is a "pheasant swaying in the wind" mean?

    Which chapter? Maybe it's a Chinese idiom or something? I believe a person who understands Chinese culture would be able to explain best.

    It was in the side stories. I had to look up the original Chinese to make sure of the translation and context. “你穿这个品牌的衣服,就真的是迎风摇曳的山鸡了”

    Pheasant swaying in the wind means prostitute adapting to hard times from what I understand. So mama an is insulting her lovingly(?), knowing the couple is fighting again and an yize is saying the clothes will really make her look like a pheasant bending in the wind.

    If I’m wrong, feel free to correct me.
