But she isn't because it isn't actually Cinderella and nobody is actually mean to the character. For all we know, she wasn't even supposed to be unfriendly with the other character.
The protagonist, who thinks she was assigned a villainous role and who believes horrible fate will befall her if she doesn't mend her ways starts acting nice to the person who was bullied. This is more of a villainess story than like a third of the stories in this anthology. Besides, the story starts with Ella being bullied and ordered to clean the fireplace, is this not mean enough?

Is that bullying? If she's supposed to fill a servant role because of a commoner origin (which is the apparent backstory), cleaning is a perfectly ordinary task to expect her to do. The character being a prince in exile poses the question as to whether or not the mother knows, which I suppose we're to take she does because royalty wouldn't be entrusted to just anybody, even if apparently lacking in magic.

Regardless, the FMC believing she has been reincarnated as a villainess does not mean she actually has been, it can very easily (and probably is) comedic misunderstanding, and the fact that no villainy actually happens makes me believe it's simply not fulfilling the requirements for the series

That other stories in this series also don't actually have any villainy in them is no excuse, frankly it's just an argument that a lot of authors that have been a part of this work don't have any interest in telling stories that involve a villain or villainess, twist or not.

There appears to be fundamental misunderstanding of the genre in the comments that isn't exclusively villainous person who does evil deeds. There are those who reincarnate before they do them, or while they still have the reptuation. And then those who efforts misalign themselves to be assumed to be villains and thus end up in the casting down/calling out scene.

Also she'd should've wished to be reincarnated in Disney's version of Cinderella. That's like a 50/50 shot of having a good end if you're Anastasia.

Yes, I'm thinking too hard despite liking this one. His mother's a commoner with magic and became concubine. So the "Otome" plot is in the past.

He's exiled and treated as a stepsister by a fatherless commoner family. Would I be safe to assume the "Stepmother" is actually his aunt?

Did she ignore the other sister in favor of Ella?
Because while I understand the desperation I don't think that is a good thing.
