Akuyaku Reijou nanode Last Boss wo Kattemimashita

This isekai series is centred on Aileen Lauren d'Autriche, a woman who has been reincarnated into the world of a video game she once played. One day she gets the memories of her previous life back and realises her character is destined to die at the hands of demon lord Claude Jean Ellmeyer... she comes up with a plan to survive this fate; she will get him to fall in love with her! Inevitably she will face various challenges along the way.

I thought this was an okay but ultimately forgettable series. The title and general idea automatically brings to mind 'My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!'... which is unfortunate as that was a much better series. It started well enough, with early episodes that got be interested. Unfortunately as the story progressed it gripped me less and often I found my mind wandering. Perhaps it will be better now the whole series is out and one doesn't have to wait a week between episodes. Overall I wouldn't say this is a must see but equally I wouldn't say it was terrible; if you are a fan of the genre try a few episodes and see what you think.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

It was very different compared to the other animes I've watched. The first episode pretty much explained the title and set the plot of the show. I kinda got bored throughout it but I forced myself to continue watching it. It was pretty simple for the most part, it's your typical anime. I think it could've had more entertaining parts to it. I was not expecting the parts in the anime to actually be in the show but I actually liked it. I wouldn't rewatch it, so it was definitely a one time thing. It was one of those animes that if that was the only thing to watch then I would pick that anime. Overall it just wasn't for me but I somewhat enjoyed it.

I had low expectations but was surprised how good the first episodes were. I did expect it to drop in quality but I have to admit it's a great TV series right up to its 12th episode. It's not perfect as it's filled with plot holes, but by golly it's entertaining nonetheless.

I suspect one reason why its so good is there are three main story-arcs all compressed into 123 episodes. This means there is almost no fillers and the plot progresses in a brisk manner. You are never bored, although when you are in the last main story-arc you do expect it to be a repeat of the 1st, thus may have less enthusiasm, but they do a reasonable twist at the end.

I think this anime is pretty good for the most part, it's not too corny or too cringe but it has its moments. I also feel like it has a very similar plot to most anime's, so it is not a very unique story line. This anime definitely caught my attention, I felt like I would be able to watch this fully without getting bored if I didn't have any other anime to watch. The first episode had me bored out but it took awhile for me to get interested. I know the main character is described as villainous but I do not seem why because she seems nice to everyone around so it is definitely taking awhile for the plot to merge.

I have read and watched other shows and manga that have a similar plot. The plot is not very unique but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. If the formula works, then it works. It at least has a bit of a spin to it. This specific show did not pull me in with the first episode. The animation was decent but not amazing for an anime. It seems to be your typical otome isekai romance at first glance which is not necessarily wrong with all of the similar tropes that the genre has which is one of the problems with it. However, that is also one of the things about the genre that can make it addicting because if you find a good one that you truly enjoyed and want something similar than this type of show is meant for you. It hits all of the right spots with a female villainess mc, a historical setting, being an isekai, more specifically it being an otome isekai, some magic sprinkled in, classes of nobility and royalty, and of course the show being romance. Overall it is a solid 6/10 and you should consider watching if you are into the otome isekai genre.
