Reiketsu Ryuuou Heika no "Unmei no Tsugai" rashii Desu ga, Koukyuu ni Hikikomorou to Omoimasu

The setting itself is as simple as it gets, but the premise is very refreshing - it's cute, it deconstructs some prevalent tropes in a shoujo manga and it makes a healthy use of the Rashomon style storytelling. The art is not what you'd expect in a shoujo manga as the author is a hentai artist... Which is actually by no mean a bad thing.
Ever since the big names in the hentai scene started going mainstream by producing manga or illustrations for light novels, we've all seen how they differ from a lot of the mainstream manga artists and illustrators in how they could portray the human body in motion and anime-style human proportions better than them. That, coupled with the pleasant surprises we get whenever we recognize certain artstyles and our brains just flare up trying to justify how and why Asanagi of all people decided to dip into the mainstream scene with the illustrations for Orc Eroica light novel. It still blew my mind to this day.
Wait, what was I talking about?
Ah yes, this manga is definitely worth a read if you're looking for an unconventional shoujo manga where the heroine isn't a villainess in the manga's standpoint and the plot doesn't explicitly goad you into hating a certain character to the point of wishing for their demise. It's a lighthearted and fun read.
Also, thanks for translating this manga!

This manga isn't bad, it just seems pretty straightforward to me.
The MC is harassed and schemed against, but simply ignores it because she's a magical powerhouse.
I do adore a magical powerhouse, but the MC is playing on easy mode to the extent that the plot suffers because she doesn't need to make any schemes or even take her opponents seriously. It feels like the author is taking it easy.
The mix-up romance is pretty one-note, too, and it bothers me that all the dragon people have the same horns and just... pretty much never take on a dragon form. Major worldbuilding fail.
I just feel that everything this does, Villainess Level 99 does better, more intelligently, and with more style.
I guess this manga has more shoujou vibes and pretty dresses if you're into that?
I give this a 6/10; good for killing some time.
