With the final volume out, I decided to read it all in one go. Not disappointed one bit. Set up has its own unique qualities to set it apart from other otome isekai titles and the character dynamics are funny & sweet.

This is a fun spin on the very popular isekai (genre? trope? I'm not sure what to call it!) where the heroine (sort of...) wakes up as the villainess in a dating sim game. Determined to avoid a bad end, she tries to recall the various flags and possible game routes to get the best ending for herself. Her best best - romancing the final boss, the demon king! This manga is so fun, and I really fell for both Aileen and the Demon Lord Claude very quickly. I DEFINITELY ship them, and can't wait for the next volume! I love that the story has all sorts of twists and turns you're not expecting, and you really do end up rooting for these characters that are supposed to be the "villains" of the story. It just goes to show that everyone (even the villain!) is the hero of their own story. This first volume ends with a bit of a twist and I cannot wait to see where it goes in volume two.
