Summary:

Catarina Claes is the spoiled daughter of a duke and the primary antagonist in a dating sim, Fortune Lover. Or rather, that’s how the story is supposed to go. That was before a high school girl woke up in her body and made it her life goal to avoid all the horrible fates in store for this villainess.

She’s been working diligently to avoid those fates, but the stakes keep rising as time goes on. Now that she’s at her magic school, she’s finally about to face the game’s primary character. In other words, one mistake can easily lead to her doom.

My Review:

Ohhh boy, I forgot how much fun this series is! As the second installment in the series, My Next Life as a Villainess Vol. 2 is a blast to read. We’ve met most of the love interests at this point – with a few notable exceptions. Maybe I shouldn’t be calling them love interests since Catarina is too oblivious.

Anyway, moving on. This volume introduces one of my favorite characters, Maria. She also happens to be the player character from the game, sooo….you can see how that’s just a touch worrying for Catarina.

Once again, I freaking love how goofy and oblivious Catarina is. More than that, I adore how everyone is aware of her obliviousness and even comments on it (not that Catarina is aware of this, naturally). It kills me.

My Next Life as a Villainess is perfect if you’re looking for a light and funny read, especially if you like Isekai and reverse harems.

Highlights:

• Isekai
• Strong Humor
• Clueless Lead
• Dating Sim Game
• Reverse Harem
