@thereIwasnt there's this as well (it's both an isekai in VN and is being adapted to anime)

Oh its maho film, I've been skipping their animes recently but will be watching this one.

Good, but Holy Grail of Eris and The One Within the Villainess when?

Those 2 and level 99 Villainess are the japanese ones I love the absolutely most.

As some korean got adapted (Raeliana and, I guess, 7th Loop?), maybe "Today the Villainess has Fun Again", "Villains are Destined to Die" and Roxanna have a good chance?

@thereIwasnt Thank you, I added it to my plans. The synopsis reminded me a bit of another LN where

@RobertBobert Not an isekai but I think you're looking for Is it Tough Being a Friend

@RobertBobert I agree with you. If Maho Film makes a good adaptation ("I'm the Villainess, So I'm Taming the Final Boss" came out pretty good), it would be a great reason to read the novella.

@Omarumba The title alone, along the lines of "I was reincarnated as a stupid virgin best friend in someone else's romance comedy" is already funny enough, lmao. But getting back to the topic, it will be interesting to see how the MC will enjoy trying to become a model villain in an otome game.

@RobertBobert Ha-ha, well I think there was one episode where SpongeBob became Patrick for a day, I think it was something like that. I could be wrong though xd. Not vn of course, but something

@Omarumba I'm still waiting for isekai in VN, where the main character is reincarnated in the body of the protagonist's stupid friend. This type of character has long been a meme in the harem manga and anime community, so it would be interesting. Not to mention the gender options.

@RobertBobert It's called innovation in animanga trends. Are villains popular today? Right! So I'll make a manga/novella where a person becomes a villain from scratch! So, it's already been done? So he died and became a villain! THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED? WTF... So he wanted to die and become a specific villain himself!

What's next? The hero killed his nemesis and made him become a hero in a virtual game, but he was killed by his hand and reborn in the same game as a villain... or...

The longest news story of the day.

Well, Ishikawa suits this role very well, or rather suits his beautiful voice. Now the big question is, who will play the truck-kun?

In 2020, Silver Link released My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! with a similar script, and two years later an adaptation of I'm the Villainess, So I'm Taming the Final Boss was released, damn those catchy titles. And now we have this to look forward to. What is it? A fetish for girls-villains or a fetish for being reborn as girls-villains? All right, let's watch it.

No wonder her voice seemed familiar to me, it’s Urushi and Haizelita! It's nice to see her have such a memorable performance, even though Nakamura is still a fairly young VA rookie. Also, do I understand correctly that the genre has become so big that there are already protagonists who directly want to be isekai-ed and become the Villainess in their favorite game?
