Episode was delayed by 30 mins today but it just finished airing on TV. This looked like something straight out of a fantasy romance novel.

They really highlighted the chemistry between Lieseotte and Siegwald in magical-like moments together. Feels like the show is pushing these two as the main pair already although I guess it's not too surprising given the show's themes. 

I also like Shihino's personality a lot in this, seems like the cheerful type of girl that can make friends easily with anyone. 

The OP song is kinda sweet

The otome game, now literally taken as a game and elevated into comedy with commentary. It's another refresh with novelist Suzu Enoshima's short 2-volume LN.

The villainess trope, now for the 3rd time in a row,
there's Endo and Kobayashi being God-like commentaries. And the twist is that the game's hero a.k.a student council president-cum-main love interest Siegwald Fitzenhagen can hear both of their commentaries loud and clear. The crown prince in the presence of the game's main female MC Fiene and villainness Liselotte, and the Voices of the Gods being a somewhat voice recognition feature that doesn't quite exist, it's just whack lols. Kobayashi asking for a kiss from the crown prince to the villainess, whatever he's hearing from them, he for sure doesn't know their drift, but decides to go ahead with it.

Of course, the trope that the villainess has to die from some known curse is typical, and this is their way of communicating with Siegfried to save her from probable death. But the communication for a start, albeit some miscommunication, he at least understood the term of a tsundere (or tsun de rais in their own speakeasy talk). Will Endo get Kobayashi to recognize her, or will someone try and steal Fiene away, this show can go in a lot of ways.

Well, this was a good refresh of the Otome Game Villainess formula. Hoping to have some form of entertainment with this one.

It's quite a pretty fun show. The blonde prince looks like a typical harem MC. Both OP & ED are cute. Lieselotte and Fiene are cute too, and Kobayashi is so hyperactive (good job Kana Hanazawa).

This was really enjoyable and so much fun to watch. Like the little spin on the story and with the LN being complete, hopefully it will be a full adaptation. Along with that and the stacked seiyuu cast ths is sure to be a fun ride. Great stuff. Definitely looking forward to more.

Packed voice cast, I mean there's no need to even look who's voicing who.

Fun start. The duo of Endou and Kobayashi breaking down the term tsundere to Seigwald as certified connoisseur of otome games made it seem like the dude wasn't aware of something he should've had right from the birth lol. Though now he knows the art of taming a tsundere.

Not sure why mister model acted like that in the end btw.

Wowowowow, just when I thought I "know it all" about anime that parody otome game (Hamefura, Mob Sekai, Last Boss) , this anime is still completely a surprise for me. A play within a play. This anime brings me all the positive energy I need for the whole week! Keep it up!

I didn't know it was possible to put so many annoying characters in one episode. I'm not gonna drop it right off the bat, so far the show's concept feels kinda weird and excessively complicated, guess I'll give it a couple more episodes..

hmm so you give the Endou and Kobayashi the bystander, 3rd person god power. 
but I wonder if there will be proper consequences for that? they are tampering with what would be equivalent to "fate" of these characters, after all.

This was super sweet, man these Otome game villain shows are being banger after banger, not just that but so many shows this season have hit a jackpot for me I can't decide which first episode I liked more, unique premise and it is a nice touch how there is the game people romance that leads to some romantic feelings for the irl counterparts, Lieselotte is bae.

So we have another Villainess story that is not an isekai, but a different type of power fantasy in which Endo and Kobayashi have the power of changing the outcome of the the game with their analysis and commentary by interacting with the main guy  Sieg in the game and possibility save the villainess Lieselotte from certain doom in most otome games. Having Sieg understand what a tsundere was very funny and he actually stole a kiss from Lieselotte although he should have kissed her on the lips and not on the cheek. It seems like Endo and Kobayashi aren't the only ones playing the game as a certain actor is also interested in the main heroine. Will Endo and Kobayashi's influence break the game or will it cause them to develop their own romance as they bond by playing the game during the Summer break?

Surprisingly I loved that episode. Like a mix of Villainess- Last Boss and Villainess- All Routes Lead to Doom while trying its own spin on the genre. Best part, comedy is solid and the voice acting is delightful. I'll stick with it and try the dub in a few weeks to compare.

And I loved the "Hana no You ni " ED by Anna. Never heard of her before since this is her first anime song, but her singing is wonderful.

I picked this one because the concept sounded really fun to me, and this episode was enough to convince me for sure. It kinda reminds me of Isekai Ojisan but instead of just watching events unfold the characters are directly interacting with what they’re watching. This also reminded me a bit of the plot of “My Next Life as a Villainess” except the villainess doesn’t know about her death and is trying to be saved by others instead which I find very interesting.

Kobayashi and Endou are very fun too, their reactions were great, especially Kobayashi going absolutely fangirl mode lol, and Siegwald using his one question to ask what a tsundere is was hilarious. It also looks like there’s more to this than just our main couple with that handsome lad we saw at the end, guessing he’ll be a villain somehow or maybe I’m judging too hard lol. The OP and ED were both really good too, I think I’m gonna really look forward to this one!

Ooooh this is gonna be a great Villainess Isekai/ish im excited. And what the hell is that actor guy in the end gonna do in this show? I do like that the prince is the one with this connection with Endo and Kobayashi. I hope the pacing will be a bit faster tho and that comedy gets more intense over time.

Great episode. Its always great to get more otome game/villainess series as its a genre we don't have much of outside the two previous ones that aired recentlyish. (Mobsekai and All flags lead to doom)

Can't wait to see more wholesome romance. 

I'm not sure about the male lead voice choice. That pretty boy face mixed with the deep voice doesn't connect with me lol. (Absolutely love the voice actor though as he plays my favourite male character Shiba Tatsuya)

At first i read the title and was like huh? how does this work?
So I read a couple chapters and its really cute and wholesome. That was a great first episode and im excited to see more Lieselotte and Siegwald. The Op and the ending were pretty good too.
Im a little sad that siegwald didnt mispronounce tsundere though the manga makes it seem like some strange word and added to the comedy.

the animation and art is kinda mediocre, voice acting... Kobayashi's voice kinda annoys me haha

but overall it's a fun episode. I read the manga so I know I will enjoy what happens, but I think they did a good job showing liselotte's tsun and cuteness.

Love this new(ish) concept (at least for me, I don’t remember having seen any similar).
Kinda like isekai in a way but no one dies (so far) and is transported. Really looking forward to the rest of the journey

My next life as a villainess turned to trash, so I wasn't in the mood to watch more Otome anime, like that one in the previous season. Giving this one a go though, decent start, unique premise with the overseeing "Gods".

Been a while seen Hana Kana has voiced a cute-sy character, although in the past she would have been the go to for the pink haired girl. Also, is it just me or does Ishikawa Kaito sound a lot like Kamiya Hiroshi here?

well that's cute. see multi ships in the OP.
Fun setup where students are god voices fixing a generic otome game instead of isekai.
Endou bit passive but characters got potential. Kobayashi so much genki.

What a fun start! Lieselotte is so cute :3 but Kobayashi is also cute and cheerful! Her reaction is exactly the same as my high school self whenever I see a couple kissing in a romcom lol hahaha.

Also, if I may ask, will Fiene end up with one of them? I'm okay with spoilers, you can answer with spoiler tag. Thank you :)

Kobayashi and Endo once more proving that Villainess Otome is here to stay! Even though this one isn't quite an Isekai, it's still quite a great idea to try and change a linear games plot by using commentary. Good episode, and I'm excited to see these relationships develop that Kobayashi was raving about.

I know nothing of this story so I went into it with mid tier expectations. The premise itself sounds like a niche of a niche of a niche.

But holy shit I am so ready to see how this one turns out. Lieselotte is so damn cute and Kobayashi/Endou seem interesting.

I think I'm going to like this one a lot!

I nearly forgot about this show. I was intrigued by the plot synopsis and put it on my list. But the long-ass name put me off and I almost skipped this show. Glad I didn't. But seriously, did this show really need such a long name? Nowadays I'd skip any anime with such a long and complicated title. It's not as if you can't portray what the series is about with shorter names. What's wrong with normal titles, like Chainsaw Man or Those Obnoxious Aliens? 

Anyways, long name or not I'm already hooked. The concept is interesting enough and I love KanaHana's performance as always.

This is kind of like a deconstructed isekai series. Really looking forward to Kobayashi and Endo helping Lieselotte survive, and be together with Siegwald! Good luck to Endo too with Kobayashi! How are Kobayashi and Endo able to communicate with Sieg? And who is that male actor who seems to be interested in the game too?
