Director: Minoru Yamaoka
Studio: Jumondou

Synopsis:
A girl is reincarnated in the world of her favorite otome game as the villainess and maxes her level early on to avoid being defeated by the heroine.

Impressions:
So, what've we got for our latest villainess story? Well, take a deadpan, wildly OP dark-aligned protagonist with pretty much no common sense or social skills and slowly teach her to learn what love and friendship are all about over the course of twelve episodes. Have the heroine and love interests of the original game scenario be a consistent pain in the backside and add in a ditzy love rival for the Prince who seems much more important to the story based on the ED than what the story itself bears out, and presto. If the running gag of Yumiella's aforementioned lack of common sense and social skills doesn't succeed in tickling your funny bone, you may not have much fun with this series. It's nothing exceptional, but it's competent enough and I don't have all that much to object to beyond me getting tired of these villainess stories. It's well enough worth a watch, but don't expect it to knock your socks off.
