This reminds me so much of that other manga where the MC gets teleported into an otome game but the MC is a male lol.
Anyways this seems just as fun as that one! will definitely keep up with this.


Would you be able to tell me the name of that manga, please? It sounds really good, but I was unable to find it with only the description

Sure

Nice to see Bakarina being animated. So I guess his name is "Geordo", although I do prefer "Gerald" more, especially since Geordo seems like the romanized version of the name. It'll take some getting used to to see him referred to as that.

I love otomes and a great female MC.

This feels new and fresh and different from what I have seen before. I love the meta "I know this game" moments and commentary.

This was a pure delight to watch and I am really looking forward to seeing the rest of it. Also keeping my fingers crossed for yuri/queer content (I saw that hand holding in the intro...)

I am surprised at how much I like this first episode. It reminds me of a show that I would watch and enjoy as a kid. I'm a girl and feel like I'm going to appreciate the hot guys and the yuri elements that people are talking about.

As person who read the manga and kind of the light novel, honestly I love this first episode, my best girl Catalina/Bakarina is here right now, I can't wait for more.

They manage to portrait the characters very goood, especially Catalina because her personality is defined by the context of "avoiding destruction flags" so her dense tendencies aren't annoying, on the contrary she's just like us, people that wants a peaceful life and I will quote this from the manga " I want a long life, and enjoy old age doing nothing with a cat on my knees" and she's funny too. Seriously I love her.

For the harem, well for me it depends on how you see the interactions and relationships between them 😅.

Honestly I believe that it will one character per episode but if the case now with this episode that focuses on Gerald/Geordo Stuart and Keith Claes, next I think will be Mary Hunt and Alan Stuarts introduction

I really enjoyed the first episode and honestly don't mind if this turns out to be reverse harem lol. Not really a fan of these isekai/reincarnation inserts but this one seems promising!

Dear lord.. It's actually very interesting. I don't know anything about this series or the popularity it has before the anime release. Yes, I'm sold to this series. As long as I get a bit less of otome-harem and more of Bakarina, then I will be glad to watch it every week.

I'm a huge fan of the manga and ln so when I heard this would be adapted to an anime, I rejoiced! And man, the wait was worth it! Seeing it animated made me so happy~

Anyway, looking forward to watching the next eps!

Oh and Prince Geordo and Bakarina for me~ XD

I must say, for an isekai series, this take on it is rather nice and refreshing. It's got me easily hooked. =)

Catalina/Bakarina is hugely amusing and had me laughing quite often. Her plan of trying to avoid an bad end of either exile or death will be difficult, but as long as she keeps being herself here, then whatever route she goes, it'll certainly be an entertaining one.

The OP song was also pretty unique and catchy. Definitely one of my early favourites this Spring Season so far. ^_^

Pretty good first episode. They added some and modified scenes to fit the anime flow better but it was very true to the first 2 or so chapters of the manga. I really liked it especially since the protagonist is so cute and dense.

This was probably one of the best first episodes I have seen for a anime. Idky but I was able to get immersed. I still feel like I have much to learn about the main protagonist but its okay. I don't want to be flooded with information. Hopefully this doesn't become dull to quick.

There she is, our Bakarina. What is with all those accidents lol.

On another note, too much happened in the first episode. If I didn't know the story beforehand, I would be lost.

I'm not an isekai fan so I wouldn't know and I don't actively look for it either but it's good to know there are many that exist. The older ones I know are like Fushigi Yuugi, The Twelve Kingdoms, Vision of Escalfowne and a few others that I can't recall now.


You seem to watch more anime than read manga/LN, so that's probably the reason why you hadn't as only on the last two years we got announcements of adaptations and on last year two of them debuted, with Bakarina debuting this year. There's three more announced already but who knows when we'll see them, maybe this year.


I've been reading more manga in the past two years but I haven't recorded most of them on MAL. However, isekai isn't really my favorite genre. However, there are a few I'm looking forward to like the one with the girl who was isekai'd into a spider.

I don't remember much from the manga, but damn it feels so fast. I think this episode alone cover 3 chapters IIRC.

That aside, I honestly forget how stupid Katarina is xD. I thought she was going to kick the door, instead she hack the door using the axe holy shit.

That ep made me rotfl towards it's end. The only thing that I could think of after seeing certain scene:



That might be one of very few isekais that I enjoy. It'll be amusing to see her hard work roll down the hill towards impending doom and her trying to stitch everything together.

When I read the manga, this become one of my favorite series.

It's probably one of the most funniest Isekai series there is, since most Isekai series are all about battles and mass drama.

BTW, Subs have her name as "Catarina", but it should really be "Katarina" as that's what's used in the manga since the start.

Or better yet "Bakarina", hehehe

somehow, the story is similar to the manga entitled "who made me a princess".

There are A LOT of manga/manhwa/light novel with the similar concept
It's a trend now in Japanese and Korean shoujo
(people call them villainess stories)
This one was one of the first to get REALLY popular (but there were a lot similar ones before this too just underrated ^^)

btw I LOVE who made me a princess <33 it's my favorite manhwa/webtoon!!

AWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! Omg that was so wholesome and adorable!!!!! They're so cute!

Its so nice seeing her be kind to those around her and expecially kind to Keith. I know it was part of her plan but she was just genuinely being nice to him. It didnt seem forced or planned. It was so cute that end scene.

I cant wait to see more stuff like that. Also cant wait for the YURI!!!! Gimme da yuri! Half the harem is girls which is great! Main girl X heroine.

I hope they keep up that adorable sibling bond though. Im glad we're seeing her as a kid.

I'm not a fan of isekai but girl-lead isekais are kind of rare. Didn't know what to expect but this one is fun so far. I love the stereotypical female villain in Japanese manga and heroine that go "ohohohohohoho" and Katarina is just that. However, she's a Japanese otaku reborn as a villainess so I'm excited to see where this is going from here on out. I haven't read the light novel so I don't know anything other than the synopsis I read on livechart. I might read it though.

This will be another feelgood series for this season on my list next to Kakushigoto. Katarina is so cute as a kid, she does look like the stereotypical villain when she grows up perhaps because of her art style.

I'm also guessing Geordo's more of the bad guy in the series. Perhaps his brother is more of a good guy. Katarina kept saying he was sadistic and black-hearted and he was probably laughing and mocking her for farming but he had to keep his composure a a prince.

TL;DR This is one of the best first episodes of the season and I am definitely looking forward to more. I have a feeling this will be one of my top faves when the season is over.


Ive watched every isekai anime and I can confirm there isnt a lot of female led ones which is why Im really happy we've got this one. Its always fresh to have female leads for a different type of isekai other than power fantasy.

Not a bad plot though. The first episode was good 4/5

I like this anime. I knew about the series, but I haven't started reading it. Similarly to BOFURI and I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level, I get to watch in 2020.

The series is interesting. A biharem isekai otome vilainess story. 1st episode shows Katarina's childhood from meeting Geordo Stuart to rescuing Keith from the pitfall of his woe.

Painted backgrounds are beautiful, animation is smooth, music is very refined. I recommend to continue watching.

Reincarnated Katarina tries so hard to avoid her destruction flags, that she befriends everyone. There are two mangas by Satoru Yamaguchi: in one she regains memories when 8 years old and in the other when 15. I hope to see more of her before 15 - how she manages her acquaintances and acquires new skills like swordfighting. She's really committed, I praise that.

6 hours 30 minutes to 2nd episode. May it be even better!

This anime reinforces my preference of villain-based isekai in that genre. I enjoyed Overlord and How Not to Summon A Demon Lord, and now this one.

It's fun to see Catarina, having realized her role as a villain in a game, see through the normal tropes of the genre and to do her best to avoid the routes that lead to doom.

I feel that meetings with herself are a bit awkward, like she has a split-personality. But I think I can get over it.

All in all, a fun debut to a fun show.

What a great start!
So funny to see her have a 2nd chance for life but she has to do everything to not die, so after this last scene I will expect anything ahaha
Great start!

The first ten minutes and what?

What with that annoying ans bothersome voice?
Bakarina should have a silly but pleasant voice.

That filler scenes were too much, if you adapt a novel can't you follow the novel? I guess not.

And I know that is the official name but the hell thought the author with Geordo name, is weirdo (don't worry I know I am not funny), I thought Ascarot sounded cool not Ascart.
