    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 3 Ch. 4 - Shall We Continue Down the Flowery Path of Evil?

    Is this just here to tease the step-<whatever> fans? The story itself is a basic misunderstanding story, and it plays a little off of knowing the existing characters. It's more evidence towards knowing the main pair is devoted, but it doesn't do much else. To me, the ending ends up feeling more...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 3 Ch. 3 - I was Supposed to be Married to Someone Who Hated Me, But Before…

    Time for that copy-paste again! This one wasn't offensive in how it handled any of this, but it was incredibly generic - a person who saw the princess fell in love, watched her, and came to sweep her off of her feet, while the villains all got their comeuppance through no particular action...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 3 Ch. 2 - My Betrothed's Personality is Way Different from the Game!

    Secrets and misunderstandings! But there's a valid reason for it, rather than them wanting to keep secrets for secrets sake? Who would've thunk it! It also feels like one of the better uses of a double reincarnation, rather than the standard (and often poorly handled) heroine/villainess...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 3 Ch. 1 - One Day, I was Able to Hear the Inner Voice of my Fiancee

    If this were longer than a cute single-chapter thing, I'd be more thoughtful of the consequences of, "You made an item that can give people the ability to read minds?" But within the scope of this, it's an amusing enough way to address the most common pitfall of these types of stories and...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 11 Ch. 2 - I Got Dumped, So I Stole My Ex-Fiance's Fiancee!?

    Huh. This one seems very targeted. If you're into the end goal of "Yep, crossdressing!" or that specific brand of revenge, I could see enjoying this. But outside of that, it's very generic. Between the classic, "He didn't like you, but you'll look better after a makeover!" trope, and the random...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 17 Ch. 150 - Spring Gyoza (Part 1)

    Hey, as long as you're still enjoying yourself and enjoying the process! I imagine it'd be simpler to just translate them for yourself, so thanks for taking the time to share these translations! (Also, I think this is one of the arcs that was released in the 'official' translation... Though...

    Akuyaku Reijou desu ga, Shiawase ni Natte Misemasu wa! - Anthology Comic - Vol. 9 Ch. 5 - The Gentle Jewel Princess' No Damage Engagement Cancelation…

    Behold, airhead versus full ignorance! This isn't amazing and was a rather weak use of reincarnator tropes, but it was pretty cute in a number of different ways. It wasn't groundbreaking, but it was at least worth a smile and a chuckle.

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - I Reincarnated as a Villainess. Come Quickly, my Engagement Brea…

    Meh, this one. It does a lot of potentially interesting build-up - the main issue is that this doesn't have the actual payoff of the actual event. It's setting things up but not really going into the consequences, resulting in a 'non-ending' for this story - and there isn't enough implied to...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 2 Ch. 5 - The Villainess Exploded

    Meh, this one. It sets up a theoretical romance between two people who proceed to not talk to each other for years, has the female lead decide that a faked suicide would be the right way to break up (despite never even trying the normal way), and has an over-the-top reaction afterward. None of...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 2 Ch. 4 - You Were Set Up, You Know?

    Competent royals? Shock and awe! In practice, I quite enjoy this one, with both the feeling of everybody actually working together and having a plan, and with the natural chain of events that occur when someone with a high position is problematic. It's a little passive compared to some, but it's...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 2 Ch. 3 - The Art of Rebuilding a Nation Begins with a Broken Engagement!

    Ah, another "Reality Ensures" one. This one's very close to the top for me - it goes through both the process of getting there, and the actual steps and consequences of what might happen with that level of broken engagement, combined with competence on both the villainess and the new romance. It...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 2 Ch. 2 - The Villainess Laughs Innocently

    Ah, this one. I'm fond of it as a fairly solid "Logic Ensues" situation when looking over it, with someone who still acts the part. The main downside is that this is mostly a summary of what happens, but it still lets you see the fairly solid outcome. It's not as flashy as some, but for whatever...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 2 Ch. 1 - It's Been 10 Years Since You Asked to Break Off Our Engagement, …

    Pfft, this one. They were amusing with the basic premise and played it for humor fairly well the entire way through, letting the prince be awkward in a way that everyone saw. It's a reasonable twist on the basic formula that made me smile. I think it's also a fairly tight story that spends its...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 1 Ch. 5 - The Villainess Trifles with the Second Prince's First Love

    Hoo, boy, I'm going to get a lot of mileage out of copying and pasting this through the entire series, aren't I? That being said, this one at least handles the characters in a more realistic way - there's no overly convoluted 'plot' compared to 1-3, and there's enough time to show off the...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - Shall We Walk Hand in Hand Down the Flowery Path of Evil?

    Ah, this one. It's pretty solid on the whole, and it's one of the first instances of a villainess actually acting villainous. It definitely has a few cute moments and a reasonable twist to help drive the point through. I don't think I find it as compelling as some of the people do, but I still...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 1 Ch. 3 - I Will Definitely Get My Engagement Annulled! ~I will become a V…

    This one's really all over the place. The starting premise of 'I want to marry for love', then not actually bothering to find out if you'd like the other person... Not a great start. And deciding that the best way to end it would be to force the other person to break up with you... Ugh. Then the...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 1 Ch. 2 - The Tale of the Noble Girl who will go to a Monastery after her …

    Funny how we go from the worst of the series to one of the best right off the bat, isn't it? This touches on the right notes for a lot of things - it hits some emotional notes for me, and actually looks at what's involved in this type of 'rags to riches' stories for the pieces that often get...

    Akuyaku Reijou desu ga, Shiawase ni Natte Misemasu wa! - Anthology Comic - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - (skip this one) The Villainess Will Obtain True Love

    Behold, easily the worst of the entire series! I'm re-reading through the entire thing and plan on rating each of these as I go for personal reference. That being said, I still can't recall anything I disliked as much as this one. I don't think it needs to be said, but if you're 'testing'...

    Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 8 Ch. 1 - The Villainess Is Content With Her Beastman Servant

    Huzzah, we're back! Now I get to try to figure out where I put this on my ranking of all of these chapters. It felt reasonably cliché, but not bad despite that, so it seems fairly middle of the pack. Thanks for picking this up!

    Is this a record for 'fastest time a reincarnation was discovered/admitted'?
