Thank you for the chapter.

is she suppose to look like Elsa
or that just comic authors and their usual character draw like same other character but with different hair thing

I imagine it's incidental and that the girl from Evie's former life is her own person - but artistically, she's depicted as similar to Elsa as a visual metaphor to tie the characters together in terms of how Evie relates to them.

Or, she has also reincarnated, but as Elsa - only sans memories (plus our Elsa here is allegedly a copy of the original, and had no memories until she grew up with Evie once our MC went to the past - which would conveniently explain why this Elsa has no memories like Evie does if she is the old friend reincarnated) - but I have nothing to support that hypothesis.

Did the system make her a bully because of that? That's low, voice of the world

 

[voyagers12]

Damn. This bullying should stop.

Kinda ironic how this manhua is titled Please bully me miss villainess!

Someone else reminded me that this series opens with Elsa about to jump from the rooftop of the academy, while being whispered terrible things by the Villainess system. Evie saves her this time though.

The villainess system takes on a while new potential meaning, especially considering what it was saying to her on that roof and how she was confused about how she'd even gotten there. It doesn't really matter if this is a reincarnation of that girl or not. Either way a lot has been added here.

It also makes Evie's decisions to fight the system this time have more meaning as well. She made a different choice. And as someone else said, the title now has more depth too

I've enjoyed how the series has progressed. To me it's been clearly intentional with it's decisions and they've typically revealed themselves to be good narrative choices. This one especially.

And I think the past will have an influence in the story ,or she is Elsa we might not know with this author plot twist and destiny 😉

Oh, I am sure she is 100% Elsa.

 

[King_julien]

Thank you for the translation!

 

[Mivy]

Oh finally her past life story

 

[NightmareWeeb]

Predidtable and very cliché ending.

... Still hurts, tho, poor girl.

 

[Amariithynar]

Leave it to manga teachers to be always the worst possible adult around

Implying that IRL teachers are any better, lol.

Also, maybe it's just coincidence, but her current aspect is her real life face + the hair color of the girl who she couldn't help...a subtle way to always remind her and "haunt" her?

And Elsa is pink-haired that girl, so likely that this story is her story, too. Heck, she might even be the soul of that girl, reincarnated, and the grudge curse the girl's own, too.

It's already pretty explictly spelled out there, with the shoes left on the edge of the roof there. Taking off the shoes is a cliché of what people do before jumping off the roof.

SHES ADORABLE IN HER PAST LIFE edit: afet reading the rest NOOOOOOOO HER FRIEND KILLED HERSELF WHYYY

 

[LocalHaz]

Couldn't save her Former Elsa, so she's resolved to never abandon her Current Elsa.

Heartbreaking, but explanatory. She can't change the past, but she can learn from it.

Not a groundbreaking narrative device, but an incredibly effective one for the sort of story beat the author is going for, and appropriate for this story in particular on multiple levels

And hopefully Evie can tie in that, while her past motivates her to help Elsa, Elsa is not a replacement for that girl, and that Evie isn't who she once was, anyway.
Elsa is the most important thing to Evie, and while she wishes to never make that mistake again, it's Elsa herself and Evie's love for her that drive our MC to fight the very world to see their happiness realized.


Thanks for the TL, as always.

I feel like in this story type the main character seems to have a mandatory sad past or sad past experience where somehow something bad happens to a friend or lover

 

[BryanPliskin]

I'm gonna put my tinfoil hat on and say that the blondie is Elsa in the past life

 

[eclipsa.]

I know the backstory are sad, but let me just say how beautiful Evie is in human world.

 

[Dweeb_com]

So that’s why she looked so frantic when Elsa was in the roof… damn 😔

 

[MelonManic]

Wait a damn minute this ain't an isekai, IT'S A REINCARNATION- wait no I remember references to a different version of the world where Yvonne was a bitch and her dad was actually evil, or just really greedy wait so is this a half-life type thing then Yvonne?

Nah nah kids you use their families standing to get away with shit need a good right hook to the face like amo

Oh yo this adds a new layer to Yvonne saving Elsa in like the first chapter doesn't it? That's sick, I mean not sick suicide is bad but like- ya get what I mean have a nice day
