![]() ![]() Instead, when Catarina unwittingly trashes an attempted date by inviting the entire gang, it is shrugged off, and instead, everyone delights in their mutual friendships. If the creators of My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom wanted to, they could’ve had lots of bickering, backstabbing, and melodrama flowing between the many characters that come to desire the time of our protagonist. But, there is also a really beautiful message I found among the many people who come to find their affections with Catarina: a decided lack of possessiveness. This obliviousness leads to many humorous misunderstandings and lots of great chuckles. Namely, that her kindness and good humor have earned the affections of all those who know her. She is so focused on avoiding her doom that she misses a lot of what is obvious to those around her. The biggest aspect of My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom’s humor comes from Catarina’s single-mindedness. And while some find it charming, even if a little strange, others are driven to their wits ends by her unique demeanor. This unpretentious nature and heartfelt joy exhibited by Catarina instantly draws the attention of those around her. She doesn’t see any particular activity as fundamentally “beneath her” and loves to indulge in activities that are far from ladylike. She is kind to all and doesn’t judge based on class or propriety. As a 20th century teenager living in a magical land of nobles and royals, Catarina is instantly different. The first is her nature as a modern girl and the second is due to Catarina’s single-mindedness. With the bulk of the humor being born from one of Catarina’s two aspects of her personality. My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom is a brilliantly done comedy. Her plan involves either A) befriend the characters in the game, thus avoiding the “doom flags” that marked Catarina’s terrible endings or B) have plans that will enable her to survive the game’s bad endings should they come to pass. Armed with her, mostly, complete knowledge of the game, she sets herself goals she feels will best aid her endeavor. With the revelation that she is the villain in her favorite romance game, Catarina sets herself the task of avoiding the many bad ending that could befall her. All the while, the player is tortured by their rival: Catarina Claes! In it, the player takes the role of a young woman who goes to a magic academy and finds love with one of the other characters in the game. In this life, she was a teenage girl in the modern-day who was obsessed with a Japanese romance game called Fortune Lover. This blow grants Catarina memories of her previous life. When she trips and falls, she strikes her head hard against a rock. She is the young daughter of a noble family in a magical kingdom. One day young Caterina Claes is walking on her family’s estate. My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom is a shojo anime adapted from the original manga by Silver Link Inc.
