For what it is, it's not bad, so I might keep watching. But, there is something I have to say.


Holy shit, Alicia's eyes are so creepy! Who thought that was a good idea?

I love these villainess series, they're always so interesting and fun to watch.

.

And they started out with the "OG protag" meeting her "candidates" LOL

With the quick introductions and it time skip to the end with the OG-Protag killing the "villainess"

.

Also, that name... Yumiella Dolkness, totoally not a deviation of "Yami ella Darkness" LOL, Which DEV made this Otome Game's names? LOL

Also, I love Yumi's "poker faces" LOL, she's so cute. LOOOL (I am already loving this series with those faces)

.

BTW... how did she not know they have to check levels? Didn't she play the game? LOL...

This looks pretty good.

Couldn't the MC just have gone to the toilet or something and bailed on the test to remain hidden?

Now it'll be a carry life instead of slow life.

I really like the fake episode to start this show. I know it is obviated by the name of the series, but still... even though the fake out does not really work, it still helps establish the world, minor characters, etc. (And is pretty funny.)

I know there has been a recent mini-boom of otome isekai, but they all seem to offer something a little different in terms of tone, perspective, and characters. For the first episode, the production values and direction seem on point, and I have heard good things about the source material, so I am looking forward to this one.
@absolutelynormal : I respect your opinion, but for me it was the exact opposite. Wasting the first 3/5ths of the first episode was exceptionally annoying and totally superfluous.

I hope that the director doesn't take any more liberties with the (good) source material. And frankly, I suspect that more people will have turned off after half the episode with a sigh "yet another totally generic show" and not lasted to the end compared to what it would have been if he had simply stuck to the original.

Didn't read the description and glad I didn't. Was thinking about dropping but the MC shift twist brought me back. Artwork is still pretty ass but I can forgive that if the story is decent.

Wow what a great first episode of Light Magic and the Hero!!!!

Anyway, in the game, it's Yumiella bullying Alicia. But now, I wonder if it's going to be the other way around, with Yumiella's objective being to just chill and not cause any commotion. No doubt Alicia and gang will probably be on her ass constantly for being level 99. Or maybe not, maybe they will just leave her alone despite that. I for one want to see Yumiella living that laid-back life. Let's see if she can at least somewhat achieve that.

I feel like they could have cut the fake-out scene after the opening song tbh. Kinda long especially if you already know who the main character is.

Guess they wanted to end the episode at the entrance ceremony.

Well I’m ngl, I was kinda fooled during first the first bit of the episode, I thought crunchyroll had the wrong episode lol, they even had an OP for the game the show is about that’s not the actual OP, but after a quick episode description check I found out that I was in the right place lol. Only thing I didn’t like about this is the fact Yumiella’s introduction later on wasn’t more impactful after kinda fooling the audience which I’m assuming was intentional, other than that I think this was a pretty good start, ain’t no way Yumiella is laying low with a level like that, it’s a wonder she didn’t do the classic thing where the orb breaks lol.

And Yumiella herself is an interesting MC atm, so she’s another victim of truck-kun who still takes lives to this day lol, and the biggest thing is that it wasn’t the dating sim aspect that she enjoyed the game for, but the grinding aspect instead, which I kinda get, there’s enjoyment in a good grind, but depending on the grind itself it can be tedious or boring lol. And this is what led to her becoming level 99, I don’t think she’ll be losing the hidden boss battle now but I imagine that’s not the end of it, I definitely look forward to seeing how this 2nd Villainess show of the season goes! And the actual OP at the end was a cool one, it was a bit unique sounding, I like it.

Wouldn’t be an anime season without a otome isekai. The set up and rug pull were pretty interesting but honestly it’s gotta work pretty hard to make it interesting going forward. Because I’m not sure how long the uniqueness will last.

As a reader of the manga, i really hate how they added a bunch of scenes to the idiot 4 for the first episode, everyone who reads the manga knows we're here for eumellia's antics.

Still, the eumellia parts were good at least.

It's not just the carriage, it's also the horse, the driver, the living armors, the skeletons, the dragons and whatever else we'll see in future episodes. As long as they keep showing it, I'll keep bringing it up.

you just mentioned stuff that probably barely even flashed on the screen for more than 5 seconds each, nitpick all you want but doesn't change the fact it's all pretty irrelevant stuff so far, and the key moments looked pretty good

Paul said:
It's fine for people to enjoy the fake out, there's no problem in that, but it doesn't change what I said.

Doesn't change about being wasted? well if you think so then good for you, I guess if you'd prefer to have 15 minutes of monologue of Yumiella explaining the game then that's your problem, I for one prefer when they show, not tell.
@Drexiel

Just because you want to turn blind eye to it doesn't mean it's irrelevant nor does it mean others aren't allowed to comment on it. It's in the episode, it's all fair game. As someone who cares about a shows visuals and enjoyed its manga counterpart, seeing poor visuals for something you enjoy can matter. Whether or not other scenes were passable or okay by your standards doesn't change that.

I never said she'd be wasting 15 minutes giving the monologuing instead. That's all you. She rehashes what happens in the game right after it ends but does so within a minute. This is not me saying what should happen if it was removed, this is literally what happens in the episode and is enough context for the otome game's plot. That would have allowed showing more of her and the actual story.

ugh... just like you comment on it, so can I say my piece, so just accept the fact I think you're being a whiny ass about the cg thing

as for whether you said she would do 15 minutes of monologue, I wasn't saying you did, I was exaggerating to make a point, maybe you lack a bit of common sense to see that? anyway, I'll be ultra specific now.
If not for this "wasted" time (which I think was really well executed) we'd have more monologue for sure, since it tried to take a risk and be different, it frees up more of the following episodes to focus more on the protagonist and the other more likeable characters that may come to pop up, instead of having to interrupt the flow of the current story to explain the dynamics of the relationships in the game

100% this. I did not like wasting more than half of the first episode this way. It sets a bad first impression and is probably why I'll skip this show.

Also as others have said that has got to be one of the worst CGI horse and carriages I've ever seen. I don't care how hard they are to draw if you're gonna CG it then get a better model

So MC arrived to the city on bad CGI
And then fell on a guy, subverting the trope of the guy falling on the girl, welp. And she beat him but with a broom later too. And he's a prince. Woah, that's a streak.

Except. She's not really the MC, we got bamboozled. That was the VN. Ha.

But don't worry, MC arrives on bad CGI too.

Anyway, the ending makes me hope MC doesn't end up pairing with the main guys even if she doesn't want to, but instead makes her own separate party...we'll see...

It's finally here. I read the manga and I loved it. That fake intro can't fool me. lol

Also, it's good to see a female kuudere protag.

Animation quality is decent. the CGI part doesn't bother me at all as I'm used to it.

I just took a peek at the first episode as this is my most anticipated anime. Gonna let the episodes pile up while I finish other anime shows from last year.

Tbh, the game intro felt boring, and just skimmed the video so I can see Yumiella.

This is going to be fun.

@Drexiel

It's no different than you to me bringing up the terrible CG. You should accept the fact that it's going to be brought up, if not by me, then by someone else.

What you previously said had nothing resembling exaggeration. Even in the case it did, why even bother posting that and just post your 'ultra specific' comment to begin with. Regardless, your point on the matter has already happened and is basically why I've been saying it is a waste. Instead of freeing up more time for the protagonist (another poster even said they cut out some of her childhood story because of it), we get her retelling the plot of the otome game the first half already spent doing. At best you can hope is it doesn't go through reintroducing all those characters again. I will at the very least say, this anime original portion is doing its job correct at making new viewers think a certain way, so I can see why you would think it's important if those specific character's relationships are what you were interested in and is why you actually cared about it. I won't say why as it could be seen as an early spoiler but some other posts have already said/imply why.

Finally a fun series but what we got from the first half is the perspective from the heroine and not the girl that was reincarnated. lol

This is a weird but fun series.

Then the last half is from the villainess.

For the first episode. They made the introduction good enough to be a bit more unique from the rest. Well played.

I came to really like the heroine from the get-go because of the first half, the trio of guys wasn't bad but I'm more curious about our Villainess' adventure. If ever, I'd want both of the two main girls' perspectives to be animated and not focused on just one's timeline.

I haven't read the source but I'm certainly inclined to watch this now.


P.S. Alicia's >_< face earlier was too unnaturally big and creepy, with some adjustments, it could've been perfect but nonetheless, she's an adorable and lovely character.
CrazyButNot4UJan 9, 7:50 PM
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

It wasn't really trolling me at all after all the tile already said everything but the but visual novel intros was really well made like those trailer you usually see in visual novel.
I think that was just fake opening for the anime. The real opening is in the end.

The anime went much better than what I actually thought. I did remember reading a skim on the manga . I didn't read it throughtly probably will do that later.

Doesn't feel like there's anything distinguishing this from the other Villainess isekais. Suppose being OP is more the male isekai cliche, but it's not an interesting thing. I agree that the carriage was a bad look. The animation isn't everything, but it was noticeably bad. Opening with it and then having it reappear multiple times suggests not a lot of care is being taken.

i didn't read the english version of this anime title or the summary, and I can't read japanish very well, so they really had me fooled in the first half, i think it would have been less obvious if the poster doesn't show her in the front. anyway, villainess anime was and is a guilty pleasure of mine, so I'm prob gonna enjoy watching this, fortunately, the ep was decent and everyone going ehhh when the number 99 appeared was fun cringe to watch, good start

My bad if I didn't, but I thought I already said that I think Yumiella summarizing the events of the game after it being somewhat shown to us serve to change the POV of the viewer from Alicia to the MC and clarify details that weren't mentioned yet, it wasn't just a retelling. At first I too thought it cut off some of the childhood stuff when I saw it too, but literally after that I checked the manga again and it barely cut anything, just one scene
(which could easily be done later in a flashback like they do some times in the manga as well, and even if not, it's still nitpicky) and a bunch of monologuing about the game and stuff

It make's me suprised because villainess typical anime not storied like this and make a fresh one, and the studio execute it well great and i will said thank you for make fresh one for villainess anime

Author Satori Tanabata's LN is yet another villainess work...oh God, how many are there left?

But I must say that the first half of the preimere episode here sure took everyone by surprise, thinking that we're watching the wrong show. This is some meta story set-up, good job.


Mayu Maeshima's OP is kinda good in spots though.

The kindness of one pink-haired Alicia Ehnleit reaching the Royal Academy, only to meet Oswald "Oz" Grimsarde being on student council duty and allowing her to break into school with the help of William Ares entering the school's dorms. All of them are 1st Years, though they meet the second prince of the Valschein kingdom: Edwin. All of them are characters in the Otome Game RPG Light Magic and the Hero a.k.a Light and Hero. Regardless, both Alicia and William got their due punishments on their first day of school, and trouble already sets in when Edwin broke into Alicia's room hiding from those trying to capture him.

On the day of the entrance ceremony, the trio, plus the black-haired Yumiella Dolkness, which the 4 students faced once in their quest to defeat the hidden boss, whom its gamer have been Isekai-ed and reincarnated into the game as said villainess, whom now wants to live a low-key peaceful life without seeing the 4 students, and level up as quick as she can from age 5 to 15, then moving to school once she turns 16. But her black hair is seen as taboo, and when Yumiella steps up to the plate to have her magic level assessed, she's seen as Level 99.

So long...the days of peaceful life of Yumiella Dolkness...

I'm hoping that this'll be at least different from your usual villainess show...because its tropes are too similar to others already seen before.

EP 1

Not sure whats going on with this season but ok


Anyway the episode ends off on that cliffhanger, just basic introduction. they did spend like half the episode on alicia's pov or they could clearly have shown us more.

Not much can be said right now, though i do see a few characters that havent shown up yet.
It seems there's gonna be a few of them who look important, probably gonna show up next ep I assume?

I'm curious if they'll run the 50-50 split the whole time but idk. It really depends on how things happen next ep and what's gonna happen, is she just gonna stay in her group and/or avoid alicia forever? Most likely things wont be that simple.

Like IDK about you guys but I already read the synopsis beforehand so it was pretty obvious the first half of the ep was a bait and switch. To be honest alicia doesnt even seem that bad of a girl, but admittedly they did try to make her as generic as possible

No real feelings on the OP
Not much I can say, they already showed us all the voice actors. Hidaka rina is voicing the blonde girl that hasnt shown up yet, which is uh, fascinating. A lot is going to depend on next ep, I have some really strange vibes from this first ep, but it was always going to be a bit of a risk

On a more general note i wonder, in general most of the isekai situations tend to be similar, whats the most interesting or unique situation you could find yourself in

Ah, Eumilia-chan~ If not because of bad CG, this would be one heck of a brilliant pilot EP. Genius direction, starting of with Alicia's POV instead of Eumilia! Sadly tho, it would be quite a time before we will met best boi Ryuu... (yes, the "i" in "boi" is not a typo).

Fair warning, this is not a villainess story. This is a power isekai featuring a "villainess" character (she's technically a secret boss, not a villainess. We have another different character as the villainess. But oh well...). And Eumilia is also a boke character. An omnipotent-expresionless-boke character, you'll love her....

This was really good. One of the strongest first episodes from this season. Although I think it would have been even better if this episode would have been wholly from Alice's perspective. It would been more shocking ending when OP villainess had been revealed by that orb for Alice and watcher would still be thinking Alice as MC. Episode 2 should have started straight from Dolkness pov. That way whole thing would been more dramatic.

Already love the MC. The kuudere personality and nice appearance are such a good combo. My number 1 favourite character having that combo makes me a bit bias lol.

Also its funny how this voice actor now has two villainesses under her belt. Immediately recognized her as Pride Royal Ivy. Glad to hear her voice more often as I only became aware of her since Pride.

Bit of a shame only half the episode was focused on MC but still was good. This is the anime I've been looking forward to most so cant wait for episode 2 when it really kicks off.

Nice start I guess. Main girl seems fun. But if she really wanted to avoid trouble, why wouldn't she dye her hair?

I want to see it, I found the characters attractive, I want to see how the story will unfold, I believe it won't be the best anime in the world, but I'll have fun with it

Finally, a main character for all RPG players that enjoy casual level grinding and suddenly find their characters overpowered.

Bravo, bra-bloody-vo. They splurged half of an episode's worth of animation, plus a parody of an intro, for a unique and effective FIRST IMPRESSION. It was definitely effective. The budget, planning, and directing for this one seems to be very good; looking forward to more of this anime.

My gawd the beginning trolled me so bad.
I kept checking the MAL page checking who's the MC and then the name of the series itself...and then it kept going and going and I was so close to head-desking because the "original" Otome game premise was getting on my nerves.

Well...the ED made-up for all the confusion and frustration the "original 4" inflicted on me
