Victoria ，

A delightLovely art and a funny story。 Getting a little more build up in the whys and how’s throughout this universe is interesting too。 It’s clear that， with our main girls own deviation from the otome games original 3 romance line plot， things are shifting in an interesting way。 Looking forward to more， as always。

Quirky， hilarious， lovely characters and great art。 The manga really brings an already great web novel to life！

Incredibly disappointed。 I love the genre and tropes of the “reincarnated into a novel/game/etc。” stories， and I was incredibly excited to see with a wlw relationship as the focus！！But Rae’s behavior towards Claire is incredibly creepy， and I often found myself feeling sorry for Claire。 Pages 142-143 were the worst for me。The character writing is also pretty bad。 We don’t really know anything about Rae outside of the fact she was an office worker in her previous life， loved playing video games， Incredibly disappointed。 I love the genre and tropes of the “reincarnated into a novel/game/etc。” stories， and I was incredibly excited to see with a wlw relationship as the focus！！But Rae’s behavior towards Claire is incredibly creepy， and I often found myself feeling sorry for Claire。 Pages 142-143 were the worst for me。The character writing is also pretty bad。 We don’t really know anything about Rae outside of the fact she was an office worker in her previous life， loved playing video games， loves Claire， and is obsessive。 Claire is a proud and arrogant bully who has an unrequited love。 The banter they have isn’t even funny or entertaining。 It’s basically just Rae saying “I love you， Claire！” and then Claire getting weirded out and shouting about how she’s a commoner and needs to know her place。 It’s very hallow。EDIT: changing to 1 stars， I wish I could give it 0。 The girls are 15 years old and there are nude and partially nude scenes。 Granted nothing is /shown/， but as an adult， this is NOT something I want to see。 （Especially since the main character is technically an adult in a child’s body。 You couldn’t have made their school a college， author？ Ugh。） 。。。more

I love it soooo much！The drawing was very beautiful， the story was very good。 Can’t wait for the second volume！ I’ll then read the light novel。

I was hoping for more build-up， I don't really get much out of romance stories unless there's some build-up （for both parties involved in the romance）。 Heh， and even though the title has "villainess" in it I didn't expect Claire to be that mean， but it ended on an interesting note so hopefully the next volume gives some more depth to the characters and the relationships between them。 I was hoping for more build-up， I don't really get much out of romance stories unless there's some build-up （for both parties involved in the romance）。 Heh， and even though the title has "villainess" in it I didn't expect Claire to be that mean， but it ended on an interesting note so hopefully the next volume gives some more depth to the characters and the relationships between them。 。。。more

This is the hands-down one of the best adaptations I have ever read because if I didn't know it was an adaptation， I'd think it was an original manga。 I still think Rae veers a little too close to my most hated yuri trope - the predatory lesbian - but this is still a very good book。Those gags between the chapters。。。！ This is the hands-down one of the best adaptations I have ever read because if I didn't know it was an adaptation， I'd think it was an original manga。 I still think Rae veers a little too close to my most hated yuri trope - the predatory lesbian - but this is still a very good book。Those gags between the chapters。。。！ 。。。more

Rei （soon to be Rae） was an overworked office drone who found her solace in an otome game that， one fateful night， she gets really into。 Reborn into a world full of hot guys， she couldn’t be less interested in anybody who isn’t the game’s lead rival， the haughty Claire Francois。 Problem is， Claire despises her - but why let that get in the way of anything？Light novel to manga adaptations can easily be either really good or pale shadows of their source material。 The best make you forget they’re a Rei （soon to be Rae） was an overworked office drone who found her solace in an otome game that， one fateful night， she gets really into。 Reborn into a world full of hot guys， she couldn’t be less interested in anybody who isn’t the game’s lead rival， the haughty Claire Francois。 Problem is， Claire despises her - but why let that get in the way of anything？Light novel to manga adaptations can easily be either really good or pale shadows of their source material。 The best make you forget they’re adaptations at all， while less successful ones make you notice every cut and poorly drawn reference （yes， the manga of Roll Over and Die still stings， why do you ask？）This book does its subject matter proud and is， in fact， a better representation of some parts of the novel I was less enthused by。 The Rae/Claire dynamic really grated in print at first until the book truly began to sing towards the end。 There is no such issue here。Rae’s endless pestering and masochistic streak are a lot more fun here， like， a LOT。 Saying “I love you， Miss Claire” over and over is one thing， but saying it with a variety of goofy expressions and Claire’s endlessly horrified reactions （truly I have never loved the ‘shriek’ sound effect until now） simply elevates it。It really softens Claire’s character too; it becomes quite obvious that she is not half the bully she could be - the manga hammers home the ‘doth protest too much’ vibe even better than the book。 The last scene here particularly shows a level of recognizance that makes her darn near sympathetic。Rae’s benefits from the art are coming off as far less predatory than she initially appears。 She might be very bad at taking a hint， but there is a long game here that， looking back， you can realize was being seeded from the beginning。The art is fantastic and really helps bring out what the novel was trying to convey - the character designs are all spot on what I imagined them as （except Yu， who’s a little too boyish for my liking）。 The staging brings it all to life - when Rae makes a request of Claire at one point， her positioning and expression reflect just how earnest she is in that moment。It’s a really great adaptation of the novel and I think the only issue I had was that Claire’s line about ‘lewd thoughts’ had a perfect comeback in the novel， but here is represented visually and it’s nowhere near as good。 Given how good the rest is， I can live with it。4 stars for the source material， 4。5 for the adaptation （gimme my anime so I can see Claire’s hair in motion）， and rounding up because the really problematic stuff for me won’t show up for another volume or so。 Next time we should get the cafeteria scene， which is kind of where I fell in love with the series for real， and the manga’s handling of that will definitely be its ‘make or break’， but this initial offering is doing everything right so far。 。。。more
