From the jump I should have known... but what I knew I wasn't ready for. This is a Romance between a brother and a sister. NO they are not step siblings this is straight up an incest story from the start up to what I have seen translated. To be honest I read more than I should have with my jaw on the floor hoping the story was something else. They in fact cross many lines, shit that the step siblings tropes don't even play with. Its really gross if you are a fan I am not one to judge but if you are not ... this is my warning.
Art is okay I think the standard of its time. 6/10 Storyline and use of the word onichan -5/10

This manga is definitely different from other villainess manga's for a few different reasons. One in the sense that our mc is reincarnated after she's already been labeled the villainess! Caught in a situation where she knows she's going to be killed if anything happens to her heroine sister she sets out to avoid death flags and keep her sister safe. Ilana the MC created this story in middle school self inserting herself as the heroine hoping one day she would be reincarnated and live her fairy tale dream. A very silly reverse haram over op dream where she's a hero adorned by all. Being ... that this story she is currently living was made while she was in middle school the characters, world, and scenarios can be non sensical at times and have frustrating logic but we are supposed to be okay with it because an 8th grader wrote the world this way. Which is where a lot of the "comedy" comes from while also giving backstories for why she created certain characters or scenarios ensuing.

While this manga is wanting to be considered a comedy it wants you to laugh at Ilana but personally I feel like it doesn't give her enough wins to where you can comfortably do so. I am up to volume 8 and this is the loneliest MCs I've ever read! Truly I don't believe it should be as sad as it is considering the genres listed. I really love Ilana as a female MC, she knows how everyone feels about her in this world and she doesn't fault anyone as its a story she wrote and she's doing everything she can to save herself and the others in this world!

Onto rating the manga overall it keeps me reading, The art style is pretty and the story is easy to follow. While I have my gripes with how MC is treated I keep reading hoping she does get her own happy ending and I hope to see it. One of the other genres listed is romance and while there are plenty of ikemen in this manga some tied to Ilana I have yet to read a clear romance plot line. You don't really root for anyone strongly based on how the men treat her in this world. ( In fact you might have a clear disdain to most of them!! ) While there's some developments if you strictly want a romance villainess manga there are far better ones out there at the time of my review. This manga gets a 7/10 higher in some places and lower than others. I hope more people read this and can share their thoughts!

This manga is a reverse haram with serious undertones showing us glimpses in the future and past of our FL.
First of all it opens on a time skip in the year 2030 and we see the FL alone reminiscing on her past in high school with her group of male childhood friends in high school. This is where the main story plays out starting in the summer of 2020. Like our 2020 there is a pandemic going on school events being cancelled and the group of friends and trying to peruse the glory days of their youth while in it. Because of the covid ... factor the typical high school shojo tropes / activities are not taking place which makes this stand apart while also leaving the reader sad for the group.

The writing is really good at making every one in the friend group loveable and the FL is sweet. You can feel the love everyone has for each other both romantically (even in the early stages) but also platonically. This time skip is a bit stress educing because as a reader you want to know who she ends up with if anyone?! It feels like there an impending doom reading it for some reason.. There is weird foreshadowing for something more dramatic than a break up among childhood friends. On the fun side there is an ikemen Olympics happening in this manga. Seriously beautiful art work and writing.

I 10/10 recommend this manga to anyone looking for a quick shojo that's completed to pick up. Some people might find parts a bit over the top but i think that's the fun in it. It had a really nice mix of comedy and drama. The premise isn't anything too crazy but who doesn't love a forbidden love. The art style is very beautiful even with the action scenes it was easy to follow. Which there is surprisingly a lot of in this manga. I think overall both main leads are well written for what the length of the story is. This had me shook ... shaking I was teary eyed twice. Very quick story but I loved it.
