Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

It was something that happened while I was waiting for the day of the primary school entrance exam. I realised that I had become one of the characters of a shoujo manga that I loved reading in my old life, ‘You Are My Dolce’.

The role I was assigned was a character who bullied the commoner protagonist and tried to get in the way of her love with a rich boy nicknamed Emperor; a typical villainess rich girl, Kisshouin Reika.

At the end of the story, Reika suffered the Emperor’s retribution and even her family fell into ruin. With the villain gone, the protagonist and the Emperor overcame their trials and became a couple. And they lived happily ever after.

Wait, that’s terrible for meee! The manga ended there, but I have to continue living my life after my family is ruined!

The protagonist can enjoy her romance or love or whatever on her own. I’ll erase my presence so that I don’t anger the Emperor.

Eh-? The story isn’t progressing well because there’s no villain, you say? But I’m busy saving up money and studying so that I can live well after the collapse.

It's a really good read, and the first and only novel I've bothered to give a rating for. The protagonist is lovable and cute and there's a lot of fluff and loveliness and it's just hilarious too! The only thing bothering me is the hiatus that makes me feel like I might cry from not reading Reika-sama for so long...

it's long exhausting ride, but I'm not bored at all! Reika-sama is so funny that you hardly bother about the slow plot. Well, imagine reading one's diary about her every day life.

Somewhat funny and unique ojou-sama's diary which is hilarious. What made me fell in love with this series is that, even though Reika-sama is quite influential character in her school, she is totally felt like a mob character.

The story is mostly portrayed from her POV. I can't explain well, duuh. Hmm, when we encounter a story, it's a... more>> given that the MC will be given hurdles he/she has to surpass in order to move the plot. But what's happen with reika-sama is really pure about her POV about stuff that happen around her. It's almost like the plot has nothing to do with her. Well, exactly felt like real life, huh.

The plot is moving slowly indeed and rather then her own character development, you will see her relationship, the chara development of people around her, and events from her POV. Which is mostly like testifying a mob's narration regarding events and relationship of Hero x Heroin in hilarious way. Reika-sama is really wonderful character, even I come to love her and decided to be her fan.

But in this story She is the MC and she is the mob, so it's really interesting. Sometime it's a bit vexing, since more than anything, I hope for Reika-sama to get her share of romance so much that I teared up.

but, when the plot finally going around Reika-sama and we got a hunch about who the 'ML' might be, the japanese author is in 'hiatus' state.

This is the legendary web novel which is quite popular in Japan but have yet get its official publication. Bad news, it's already more than a year since she last updated. But, I warned you. <<less

Probably the most slice of life story I've ever read- story follows the MC from the time she's 6 to teenage years.

Many hilarious and heart warming moments. There are also certain parts where it's too slow for me and I ended up skimming through them.

For the first 299 chapters, romance is practically non existent and yet the plot kept me invested.

Unfortunately just when the romance is finally picking up (I think), the author went on a hiatus... thus an angonising wait ensues... at this point, I'm not positive... more>> that this story will be completed. <<less

i mean we do have a fling here and there with that ojisan and sempai butttttt please I have this feeling enjou likes her too and we haven't been yet introduced to his so-called fiance as yet and I think there's a story behind her seeing how our angel get's all worked up and enjou gives this weird response to her buttttttt that s*upid emperor needs to know his ongoing feelings for reika-sama which he had since primary rightttttt

thank you for... more>> the translationssss people at oniichanyamete~~ <<less

The late romance tag really isn't for show. 220 chapters in and there's zero romance in the story. Considering the Shoujo demographic, most people like me are here for the romance, but it's frustrating that nothing happens, ever.

Considering Reika reincarnated and is supposed to be someone who is from a prestigious family, reading the story from her perspective feels really embarrassing. The flow of the story isn't bad, and the translation is pretty good compared to others. I just wished that the MC would have been less of a vegetable and more respectable. As I'm reading this, I'm cringing. Even though I've haven't read too far, I'm confident that she's going to get bullied or taken advantage of because of how she seems more s*upid than people... more>> who are actually mentally younger than her.

I came into this thinking that she would change the character "Reika" from narcissistic and rotten to someone charming, but realizing that she is actually below average makes me not care about this story...

If you find her character cute, then you'll probably like this. I, on the other hand, think she's self centered just like the original Reika, but just in a different way. <<less

This story is honestly so great! More of a comedy than a romance, at this point in the story the MC hasn't had an actual romantic encounter yet. Personally, I could see something developing with Enjou. But not for a while. It's just as likely poor Reika stays chief of Forever Alone village through college, haha.

Despite that, it's full of romance for everyone else. The characters are all very well developed and entertaining.

Honestly 10/10 would recommend, as someone who usually goes for faster paced smutty romances. Take a chance even... more>> if it's not normally your thing-- you'll be surprised! <<less

Okay first of all, I. Love. It!!! At first I had some second thoughts about reading this cause of other people's ratings and thought "So I guess this story is not good then......" but I was wrong cause it wasn't. Both the characters and the plot itself is funny and quirky. I gotta say this got me hooked that it only took me 2 days reading this. I have so much positive feelings for this novel that its making me feel very much excited and giddy. Although this has tags of LateRomace & SlowRomance, I must say that Reika-sama's romance is very late and much slower than what I preferred but I guess I can compromise. Anyways can't wait for the next update!!!

PS. I'd like to thank the author... more>> for making this wonderful novel and specially the translator (s) who translated this. I sincerely love your work!! It's very nicely done!!

Fiato!!!!!!!~ <<less

I have never written a review for any of the novels I've read in the past, but this novel is different. All I have to say is that this novel is just so well written and self motivating. I honestly love love this novel for its school related scenarios. Although the main reason I started reading this novel was due to it being categorize as "romance" I would've never thought that its not the romance that hooked me in but instead it was at how passionate and hardworking the MC... more>> was while dealing with school. To me it motivates me to do my homework or do well in school each time I read a chapter or two. I honestly don't know about other readers but to me, that was all I came for ever since I started reading this novel. There may be no romance, which I eagerly want, but the school scenarios help cover that part a lot on my part. My main point for writing this review is that, I hope that the author will continue writing the novel because hey I honestly want to know who Reika will end up with since its such a big mystery on our part. Plus, the studying and school scenarios are just so motivating. So keep up with what you're doing author! ? <<less

this is a fantastic novel! Both translators are wonderful. Onnichanyamete (its not p*rn, trust me on this) gives great explanation of whats included such as soba, the cakes, locations, and such. Even though estelion is moving at a slower pace, NEVER BLAME THE TRANSLATORS! They have a life too! This is a volunteer work, so their releases are pretty much up to them. Reika-sama is so relatable, and the two MLs, Bakaburagi (as everyone deems), and Enjou (the devil in angels clothing). The other translator updates once a week, and... more>> is almost caught up with the actual amount, which means slower releases soon. Cries* The pace is rather fast, with more detail of HS. Still a really sweet story though, and this one was the one that got me into the 'I-Reincarnated-Into-The-Otome-Game-As-A-Villain-What-Am-I-Gonna-Do' thing. It's actually pretty funny in the later chapters, and you've basically got 3 choices now. Emperor Camp, Prince Camp, or I'm Just Gonna Wait And See Camp. This totally deserves a 6/5 for storyline, characters, and relatibility, which is pretty rare for me too give high scores, but I LOVE this light novel. And I know you'll also enjoy this. Happy Reading! <<less

This is one of the best stories I've read in this site. It's funny and interesting. It's also a light read. Why, the MC is even relatable. None of the characters are perfect which only added to their charm. I recommend this to everyone. It's a must-read!

At first I was doubtful, but decided to try it anyway due to the favorable reviews.

I was not disappointed. I love this! It may seem a bit boring thinking that the story is about her everyday life, but it's so hilarious that you just can't stop reading this. Definitely a must read!

I'd like it more if there is just a little bit development in romance, but then it's what makes Reika's interactions with Enjou and Kaburagi more hilarious, I guess. I'm still curious which one she'd actualy end up with... more>> though! Please give me more hints author-sama! T^T

Spoiler

I'm rooting for Enjou just because I think it'd be hilarious

I like this. I like this a lot. XD It may be because the translations are so smooth. Or it may be due to the main character's cute s*upidity. Or may be it's because of the the MC's relatability. Who knows, there just something about this slowly paced atory that draws me in. And has me rooting for the MC everything she sets a goal for herself. It's nice, and everytime I finish reading a chapter I get refrashed. Be warned though... ... more>>

About every other chapter, give or take, Fluffy-sama (the translator) tortures you with yummy food pictures and make you super hungry. And there's a lot of food pictures.

Honestly just a really fun read. This story if a fun slice of life with interesting characters and great character interaction. No one is really a flat 2d cliche and most of the characters have a lot of depth in them. Also while I'm not sure if its intentional the way reincarnation is handled is really interesting. Usually the reincarnated person will be insanely mature and will always shock people with how wise they because of there mental age which they will mention every five minutes. But in this story... more>> while the MC has the memories of her past life she is still a five year old and will act like a five year old. That makes the story much more fun and interesting as the MC doesn't act like a sociopath but more like a real person. Also this story doesn't rely on misunderstanding to make some cheap drama. <<less

Damn, totally hooked to this WN that I spent a whole night, and the morning after that to binge read this all to the newest translated chapter.

As first, I thought this was just another recarnation type of story, was reluctant to try it at first but. Wow, before I barely noticed, 6 hours had had already passed.

Nothing so serious about this WN, no world saving, no heart breaking plot twist, no becoming a hot spring in another world or anything like that, just a (normal) ? (Slice of life) ?,... more>> and that is why this one is interesting!

You should properly read other comments, the way of the words is not strong with me, but if you are still here, then one of the most appealing about this WN is its characters, they are distintive, interesting and to be honest, the main character is one of the funniest protag I can find.

Well, watcha watin' fer eyy? Just get right into it and enjoy this great novel!

P.s: Try your best translator guy/gal, thanks for your work, and I am realy looking forward to the next chapter! <<less

It's a very fun story. Reika is cute, but at times her weak will does get a little bit annoying.

Luckily, she's showing signs of moving past it in later chapters, so all is well.

299 chapters and you say there is no romance for MC?? You say there is no love interest for the one and only main character here!? Is this really... shoujo? Also, she was supposed to be an adult in her previous life right? Why is she going to CRAM SCHOOL in primary school?? The common sense in this story is way too faulty that it bothers me.

It's written like a journal entry. Because of that, it's deemed to be repetitive. The story's promise doesn't help either. It's straight-out boring.

I'm glad... more>> that I read some spoilers about it and I'm dropping it on ch15. Thank you, reviewers! <<less

Such a good novel that unfortunately went on hiatus and most likely won't return it seems...

What is so enjoyable about this novel is the timespan on building the characters. Start out in primary school (elementary) all the way to high school. The reincarnation really doesn't play any major role other than the keep the main character honest.

Some readers might find it annoying because it doesn't seem like there is a lot of progress every chapter, or that it is light on the romance side but it is well written.

I really don't understand how so many people rated this 5 stars... the author keeps skipping over pretty important small details like her grades, she goes to cram school but if a high schooler got reincarnated and put into kindergarden they would easily be able to do the basics and would probably be thought of as a genius since they already know the material... The main character's in these storys are also really s*upid... all you have to do is not bully the heroine and you will be fine but... more>> instead she starts avoiding the male lead to the point where he will probably be interested in her... The world building is also pretty bad, at first I couldn't even tell if this was fantasy world or not since they kept talking about the "emperor" which is really just some famous buisness group... overall this isn't that great of a book and it could use a lot of work, no idea how it got so many 5 star reviews. <<less
