This manga had become one of my favourite manga reads of 2020, and may have even go onto my favourite list of all time! Reading the rest of the series will determine if it makes that list.

I picked up this manga because it was the July pick of the manga book club that I am a part of, with Rachel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChf3yjgh2T7ciWXRzcB8l4g) and Lois (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGfuoJx94GjJwy1CRpy5viA). They are both great, and I would recommend that you guys go and check out their booktube channels!

I am so thankful to Rachel for picking this series because I absolutely loved this manga. It has everything that I want in a manga. The series follows Catarina who, after an accident, remembers her past life. In that life she was an Otaku who loved playing games and her current life is the video game she was playing and she is the Villainess who has a tragic ending no matter the choices of the heroine of the game. So she decides try and prevent that from happening as much as possible. I loved the plot of this volume because I felt like we really got to know all of the main characters. It was like a chapter dedicated to each person which was great because you really feel connected to them. The dialogue between the characters also made me laugh out loud at one point which is a huge win in my mind when reading books.

I would highly recommend this manga and I can't wait to continue reading this series!

One Of My Favorite Guilty Pleasures ^^!
adventurous funny fast-paced

Devoured in one sitting and I think I'm going to binge the next 4 volumes today

this is really wholesome and has so much queer potential and I hope it doesn't disappoint

Isekai done well
fast-paced

it works as a manga well but I think it losses a bit when you cut out how the other characters interpreted the events. But it is fun to see the characters art on more than just a few pages like in the light novel still love Katarina's birthday chapter.
funny lighthearted relaxing medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

A fun read! I enjoyed the silliness of the protagonist, Katarina, and her ridiculous schemes. It was fun seeing how the rest of the cast interacts with her.

Such a cute book!
