Reverse isekai villainess? That's cool.

Well, Olivia has the regular villainess backstory. Girl who gets ousted as the fiancé because of troubles beyond her control. But now she's Hanabi, a regular girl who's being bullied. But I really like the contrast between her past life and her current one. She doesn't need Oshino to help her like Luke. She can stand up on her own.

Hanabi must have felt so powerless at school. I feel really sorry for her. Hopefully, Olivia will be able to help her return, somehow.

I'm on the fence here, I predicted when she said "She'd never be beholden to luke-sama" that ofcourse there would be a luke-sama in our world. Also why would she reincarnate into a dead body? It comes off a bit convoluted in that regard. Overall though I'll give it a few chapters to see how it plays out. At least the FMC is giving the students whatfor.

Actually, multiple stories have had a MC given the body of someone who had died, with the body not undead. Also, multiple stories have had a MC given a body but hoping to restore its possession to the original psyche. The latter stories are more humane in that aspect.

We might imagine a fantastic theory in which some events (such as drug-taking) cause a psyche to vacate a body, whereupon it becomes vegetative or persistently comatose unless a new psyche possesses the body.

Having the suicide's last testament hidden or erased is thoughtlessly very cruel if she's not going to be revived, but thoughtlessness characterizes a lot of popular fiction.

I wonder if the original inhabitant of that body has reincarnated in the villianess' original world, in other words they switched places.

Reverse Isekaii!! But judge from this first chapter it's likely just became typical shoujo manga. Hope it's not.

Is it just me or did everyone miss the obvious connection of this manga to another one that already finished? I forgot the name but I know the POV for that manga was the prince himself, not the reincarnator.

This manga is Nakashima Milk-sensei's first (and only) work (so far).

Let us know when you finally remember the name of the manga, though. (-: We'd love to see the connection that you meant.

Man I thought the freckles were cute on her but of course she gets rid of it when doing a whole makeover. 🥲
