With a child protagonist whose sole purpose is to live a laid-back life, By the Grace of the Gods doesn’t have much to offer in the action department, though that certainly doesn’t equate to a tame narrative.

With the protagonist as the ‘villainess,’ My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! doesn’t leave much room for other antagonists to take center stage. With the role of an antagonist thrust upon Catarina Claes in the otome game ‘Fortune Lover,’ she has no choice but to find a way to denounce her character’s villainous origins.

Through her efforts to avoid the game’s doom flags, Catarina ends up befriending the entire cast of the game, entirely forgoing her original villainess role. With comedy at its core, this isekai anime does the otome theme justice with its whimsical premise.
