The villainess isekai genre is a parody of something that doesn't exist. I'll blame Bakarina for that one. It was taking inspiration from the Kenkyo, Kenjitsu web novel, which was about reincarnation into a rival character in a shoujo romance manga. Bakarina, I guess, wanted to combine that with the standard fantasy isekai stuff, and that's where the fantasy otome game villainess subgenre came in. So it always existed as a hodgepodge of two already popular premises. --- Just killing time until the world ends. <cite>Sceptilesolar posted [p:977314072] in Anime & Ma...
