- FL is betrayed by her lover, dies, reincarnates, and ends up setting her story right.
- Strong FLs
- FLs become jaded after reincarnating
- Strong MLs
- Strong ML x Strong FL
- Gender Role Reversal themes (more present in FJ)
- Petty and evil SML.
The stories are quite different but I just couldn't help but think of RftA while watching FJ. Main differences are: FJ tis about royalty and takes place in the palace. RftA is mostly revenge focused.

- One of the leads is a royal (Prince ML in DLX, Empress FL in FJ)
- The other lead works under the royal (Maid FL in DLX, General in FJ)
- Strong FL x Strong ML
- Cold FL x Cold ML
- Gender Role Reversal
- Wintery aesthetic
- Similar steamy scene
The main difference is that in DLX the roles are reversed from FJ while still remaining role reversal. DLX's FL is a fighter while in FJ her fighting power is limited. DLX is revenge focused with morally grey leads while that is not the case in FJ.
