I'm in Love with the Villainess
Oshimeter
Synopsis
The isekai genre has a well-worn formula: someone reincarnates into a fantasy world and chases the obvious love interests. Rei Oohashi gets reborn into her favorite otome game as the protagonist Rae Taylor and immediately ignores every prince in the room to simp for the villainess instead. Claire François is the elegant, haughty noblewoman you're supposed to hate, and Rae is absolutely head over heels for her, openly, shamelessly, and to Claire's endless frustration. This 12-episode TV series from Platinum Vision is basically what happens when you throw a self-aware fangirl into the story she knows by heart and let her rewrite the script through sheer romantic persistence. The comedy lands because Rae knows every plot beat coming and uses that knowledge not to gain power or avoid doom, but to get closer to Claire. And Claire's reactions, flustered, annoyed, slowly cracking, carry the whole dynamic. It's a yuri romance wrapped in a villainess isekai, set at a fantasy academy, and it leans into the comedic side without losing the genuine warmth between its leads. If you liked the villainess genre twist in An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself a Villainess, or enjoyed the chaotic romantic energy of Love Tyrant, this hits a similar sweet spot. It's lighthearted, colorful, and knows exactly what kind of story it wants to tell.

Good as background noise but super sweet if you're into romance
It was sad for us light novel fans not to see the future story arcs get further animation, but this is more than enough for us, as we had been waiting a long time for the anime adaption. The final episode, in my opinion, was a great way to end, as it shows much more than usual character development in the main characters relationships.
The story in this episode always makes my heart drop, even though I knew what was coming. This episode mostly had angst parts, which is to my liking, as I enjoy the angst genre.
One of my favorite storylines in the series in this episode, as it is where the main characters begin to show character development.
This is the continuation of the previous episode, and is also a worthwhile episode, in my opinion, as it supports some of the story developments that occur later.
This episode bring out some serious topics within the kingdom, which will be elaborated on later in the story. Personally, I think this episode is worth watching, as it is one of the key points in the first half of the story.
I love how the story took a different direction after Rae made some changes when she expected something else to happen. This episode showed a lot of development in the relationships between the main characters.
This episode once again contains more cute interactions between Rae and Claire, and there are also some scenes that foreshadow future events in the story.
In my opinion, this episode is worth watching because the exam battle showcases the abilities of some of the main characters, which will be explored further in future stories.
Termina siendo un cierre de temporada decente, no llega a ser excelente porque faltó lo mas importante en el final de un anime de romance, pero fue un buen anime para el género al que pertenece, los momentos divertidos no faltaron y supo llevar su drama.
Aqui vemos que el amor de Rae por Claire no es solo un capricho, sino un sentimiento real, y prueba de ello son las inseguridades y sentimientos negativos que demuestra en este episodio. Personalmente no me agrada el personaje de Manaria, pero reconozco que es indispensable para que la trama, relación y desarrollo de Rae avancen.
La introducción de un nuevo personaje afecta la relación de la protagonista con Claire, la trama es la típica del personaje mas fuerte que aparece al final del anime y su mera presencia cambia las cosas que se han construido a través de los capitulos anteriores. Aún así las interacciones Mariane - Rae son de lo mejor del episodio.
En este episodio Rae y Claire se ven muy cercanas, con esta última teniendo menos momentos tsundere da lugar a momentos muy bonitos entre las dos. Felicidad por un lado y tristeza por otro, lo hace un buen episodio.
Es un episodio muy distinto a los que hemos visto hasta ahora de este anime, dejando de lado la comedia y los momentos romanticos para pasar a tocar temas mas serios y complicados de la sociedad. Que la propia Rae, con todo su conocimiento, diga que ni ella sabe que va a pasar le da el toque necesario.
Este episodio cumple con ser el típico episodio del festival escolar, de hecho, creo que lo cumple demasiado, fue muy divertido y entretenido, pero no hacen nada que rompa ese molde durante toda la trama del mismo. Dejando eso de lado, creo que es la primera vez que vemos el porqué a Rae le gusta Claire de verdad.
Me gustó ver flashbacks del pasado de Claire, aunque haya sido triste, le aporta transfondo al personaje. La actitud de Rae, sumado a los momentos finales el episodio, te dejan con una intriga enorme.
Un episodio con algo de acción, teniendo en cuenta que la animación de este anime no está hecha para secuencias muy movidas esta bien hecho. También este episodio nos deja ver las habilidades y potencial de los personajes principales, resultando entretenido y dando un descanso del romance.
The animation in this episode replicates something that the light novel could not do, and I am really happy about that. The development of the main characters relationship also increases in this episode.
This episode further shows Rae's feelings towards Claire. There are also some statements made in this episode that reveal more about Rae.
This episode contains more cute moments between Rae and Claire. It also introduces some new characters who will become important to plot later in the series.
