I'm in Love with the Villainess

This yuri/isekei series is centred on Rei Ohashi, an office worker who dies after overworking. She finds herself reincarnated as Rae Taylor, the heroine of her favourite game. In the game Rae is meant to choose between one of three princes... this Rae will be different though; she sets her sights on Claire François, the villain of the game! As she is familiar with the game she might just do it; obviously it won't be too easy though.

There are plenty of isekei series, usually set in some sort of fantasy world. This series manages to deliver something fresh with its central yuri romance. Rae is a fun central character; it is impossible not to root for her and hope she will eventually end up in a relationship with Claire. The other characters are good. This may be set in a world with magic but don't expect magical battles with monsters; it really isn't that sort of show. The animation is good and the character designs are suitably distinctive. Overall I thought this was rather fun and would recommend it.
