Though I May Be a Villainess, I'll Show You I Can Obtain Happiness! - Vol. 9 Ch. 4 - The Villainous Noblewoman's Homeroom Teacher

[zephyroths]

The biggest twist isn't that the villainess fall in love with the MC, it's the fact that we never find out the heroine is actually reincarnated person up until the end

Sorry for the wait, kinda busy this week

Spoiler

This might be my favorite chapter in this volume, I mean the bar is quite low for this volume lol. I'm a sucker for a bromance manga like Horimiya and I hope that this chapter gets serialized because I want to see more of their adventure. And also, the heroine in this chapter is quite cute, so there's that.

call me a pervert, but this face is lewd, I love itView attachment 18537​

i concur, this chapter was actually quite good, even without looking at the bar that's already below the ground.
I'd love to see more works of this mangaka, who is he?

I'd be interested in the exact reasons people are icky about the potential relationships. People I know are massive fans of Flowery Path of Evil and at least the age gap there is much bigger so... Surely it can't be that, right?

Flowery path of Evil makes for a pretty good comparison when you consider people's reaction to its sequel chapter.

FPoE Original one shot: MC is forced to marry a fat old man and they end up very happy and evil and glamorous.

Most of this chapter: MC is a realistic and responsible teacher who cares about his students

A lot of people like this because those concepts are interesting and unusual

FPoE Sequel Chapter: Focuses a lot on MC's handsome stepson being in love with her and hoping he could marry her after his dies.

This chapter ending: One of MC's students falls in love with him, everyone accepts this, and MC's just like Ohhhh noooo

A lot of people are disappointed because the unusual concept they liked got undermined in favor of something they see all the time in other stories.

I wanted to see more of MC and her evil old rich noble husband, get that generic pretty boy out of the shot.

I want to see more of MC being a responsible teacher, stop setting him up with one of his students.

I know! at this point the whole "white lotus OG female lead who was pretending to be kind/is an malevolent spirit all along" trope is so over done. Show me something new! Have her be a nice reincarnator, have her be kind, have her be tomboyish hell, HAVE HER BE SCARED SHITLESS OF A OTOME WORLD SHE'D NEVER PLAYED BEFORE?!
I'm not saying she can't be a villain or antagonist, people with conflict of interest fight all the time, sometimes with good and bad resolution. But when the villain is constantly petty and gets undermined because they're too stupid to pose as a real challenge, it lowers the stakes and interest.
I crave a day where there's a proper protag/antag dynamic that is as good as something like L-era Death Note

Keep thinking it would be funny if both the villainess and heroine were genre savvy reincarnators and deeply suspicious of each other. Villainess thinks heroine might be a white lotus, heroine thinks villainess might be a real villainess or an MC who's going to wreck her shit.

Would also be nice to see a heroine get in over her head.

Like I think if an otome game fan, especially a teen, reincarnated as the heroine in a game she knew all the routes for it'd be real easy for her to just do everything "right" without considering the consequences of that.

"Do I actually want to be a queen?"
"What am I gonna do when I don't have a script to follow anymore?"
"My only friends are a bunch of dudes who are in love with me"
