Manga Success and Plot Overview
The Dark History of the Reincarnated Villainess has been serialized in Lala, Hakusensha’s monthly shoujo manga magazine, since August 2018. The series has proven to be a commercial success, with cumulative sales (both print and digital) surpassing 1.7 million copies as of February 2024. The manga is also available in English, published by Yen Press, and continues to captivate readers with its intriguing premise.
The story follows Konoha Satou, a character with a mysterious past. In her teenage years, she wrote self-indulgent fantasy romance fanfics, unknowingly setting the stage for her future role as the villainess in her own story. However, now that she has been reincarnated as this despised antagonist, her once-idyllic memories are suddenly a matter of life and death. Having avoided several death flags, Satou is confronted with a new challenge when a mysterious stranger from the Lily Kingdom—Yomi—appears. Yomi claims to be her ally, but Satou is left questioning whether she can trust a character she has no memory of writing into the narrative.
Fans of isekai and shoujo manga alike are looking forward to seeing how this complex tale of reincarnation, trust, and intrigue is brought to life in anime form.
