This series really makes me feel the crushing weight of my failure to invest and buy a house when I was 4 years old.

Also every chapter is like 3 pages of interactions and the rest is teaching you about economics, and then the side chapters have some character development. I don't understand most of the econ and I also don't like econ so it's almost frustrating for me

...I'm starting to realize why I failed economics.

Genuinely though, stories like this is why I love manga. A deep dive into economics on the trope of villainess reincarnation, what a story.

This is by far the most unique premise and bait I've ever seen. How do we make a story about the market crash of the late 90s-early 2000s as well as business development, acquisition, taxes, and regulation interesting to the general public? Disguise it as an OI villainess manga.

You fuckin' mad genius.

Honestly I quite like the story so far, while the economic concepts are a bit hard to read, it is nothing to the level of economic textbook problems. There are a few spots that were hard to understand in a more detailed manner(modern banking systems and their debts in Japan), but the macroeconomics mostly make sense in a way that lets the story progress while a having a basic understanding of the revelance to the former economic principles. It is also a fun read in terms of it being an alternative history story. Seeing how japan was divided into a north and south was very interesting, as well as the unification of japan post cold war, but I'm not sold on the fact that a unification would go so well as to still keep them in such a global position, but I'm not smart enough to think of otherwise, with Germany being a good example, so its just a nitpick at that point. Story is fun, and the narrative beats are satisfying to read about, though it is still behind compared to the lightnovel. Not to mention the translator's afterword is great and I always look forward to the current political/economical topics being written in the "translator notes", very much a cherry on top with a micro-lesson on current world affairs lmao, very much appreciate it. Overall a good story, would recommend 8 cats out of 10.
