When a woman is reborn into an otome video game as the villainess, how can she play to win? Based on the hit light novels and now an anime streaming on Crunchyroll! (And don’t miss the new manga spin-off and yuri anthology—or the video game for Nintendo Switch.)
At the age of eight, Katarina, a girl of noble birth in another world, has an accident that unlocks her memories–of playing an otome game that’s exactly like the life she’s living now. There’s one problem: she realizes that she’s playing the role of the villainess, and only bad endings await her! What will it take for her to “break the game” and live a happy life?
Katerina has steadily avoided all the new doom flags popping up at the Bureau of Magic, but her test assignment—which will determine her placement in the Bureau—isn’t going quite as well. Tasked with tanuki removal in a rural village with coworkers Maria, Sora, and newcomer Dewey, she quickly finds that tanuki are even bigger pests here than in Japan, and destructive to boot! All of the team’s ideas have so far failed, but to Katerina, it almost feels as if the tanuki aren’t the real issue. There’s something bigger afoot, but can she find out what it is before it’s too late?
After a disorienting first day at the Bureau of Magic, Katarina quickly settles into her new position. Luckily, she has her friends to fall back on, especially after finding out there are even more doom flags to come—it turns out the Bureau of Magic is the setting for the sequel to Fortune Lover, which features the return of the formerly banished villainess, Katarina Claes. With a whole new set of love interests thrown into the mix, Katarina needs to stay on top of all these new doom flags, lest she accidentally set one off and meet a fate even crueler than banishment!
Katarina and her friends mount a daring rescue mission to save Keith from the clutches of dark magic users, but in the end, they’re still expected back at school, where graduation is just around the corner. Having dodged every doom flag, Katarina is tempted to let her guard down—but she never expected the appearance of a new rival, Marcia. Not only is Marcia in love with Prince Jeord, she’s one of his past fiancée candidates, and she wants Katarina out of the picture once and for all!
Having successfully avoided all of the doom flags, Katarina Claes is enjoying her new, peaceful life and eagerly awaiting graduation…until her brother, Keith, disappears! When Katarina realizes that her behavior may have caused his sudden departure, she gathers her friends and embarks on a quest to bring him back!
Katarina has been kidnapped! And it seems like Selena–Jeord’s brother’s fiancée–is the culprit! As if that weren’t bad enough, Jeord has received a letter demanding he renounce the throne! What are Selena’s motives? And who is the true mastermind behind all of this? The answer may shock you!
DOOM AFTER DOOM Having survived the graduation party, the final event in the dating sim Fortune Lover, Katarina has successfully avoided exile and death! To her great relief, every potential courtship with the game’s heroine, Maria, has ended platonically. But unbeknownst to Katarina, there’s a sequel to Fortune Lover! What new doom awaits her at the school festival?
ASLEEP AND SCHEMING After Katarina discovered that student council president Sirius Deek was a hidden villain in the dating sim she was reborn into, she fell under the spell of his black magic. Now, in a deep sleep, she must navigate her previous life to uncover information that will help her save Maria from the same fate. Will she wake in time to defeat Sirius? Or will Katarina finally meet her doom?
FALSELY ACCUSED! Katarina Claes, reborn into her favorite dating sim, has finally met and befriended Maria Campbell, the heroine of the game, in the hopes of avoiding exile or death.

Doom approaches, and the vilification of Katarina is about to begin!
