Reincarnated in a Mafia Dating Sim, Volume 2: A Yakuza Heiress Becomes the Top-Ranked Villain's Romantic Target!

Rate this book
In this enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance, a strong-willed mafia heiress only wants peace — but her villainous fiancé from a rival crime family has other plans.

The manga based on the popular light novel series by the author of 7th Time Loop, for fans of mafia romance, otome isekai, and school life in a fantasy world.

Once the beloved granddaughter of a yakuza don, Francesca Calvino has been reincarnated as the daughter of a mafia family — in the fantasy world of the dating sim she played in her past life! Her goal: to cleverly stay out of the game’s main story, avoid the brewing mob war, and leave the world of organized crime behind for a peaceful life.

But it won’t be easy with the handsome and manipulative Leonardo Aldini — the major villain of the game, who also happens to be her fiancé — meddling in her affairs. Now that he knows her secret, Leonardo makes a deal with Francesca. She agrees to attend a high-society party with him, where she begins to believe she may have more in common with him than she thought…

Yet as the game’s first chapter unfolds, what schemes does this crime boss have planned?

“He falls first”…I think it’s happening. Though he started saying it in jest, it’s feeling like there is some weight behind what he’s saying…

Also, I like how all of the love interests aren’t being introduced all at the same time. It shows that there is a plan and that hopefully we won’t have a huge lag time between volumes.

Oh, I forgot to mention it in the first review, but if you aren’t into guns, especially being aimed at one’s self to control others by threatening self-harm, don’t read these. It was used in the first volume and the second and it made me VERY uncomfortable.

Guns are NOT toys and should be handled responsibly. They shouldn’t be used in media for unnecessary drama.

4, I hope to my stop with that particular scene in future volumes, stars.

If anyone were to say, "Perfect sequels don't exist…" Let me kindly introduce this series because I LOVED volume two so much! I don't know if I would say it was BETTER than volume one, but the enjoyment I had of this volume was just as strong as volume one, hands down!

In fact, maybe even more so because I couldn't help giggling when reading the opening scene! I do believe our Leonardo is quite smitten with our beautiful Francesca! The things he said in the opening I feel were just the tip of the iceberg because after seeing them ride in the carriage AND how he acted at the soiree, it leaves no room for doubt that he loves her!

He's just *coughs* os a little crazy, which this volume also showed. *nervous laughter*

I did, however, appreciate the "twist" of Francesca pointing out that since she is doing everything in her power to change the story, she has sort of ended up becoming a villainess of her own making. I wasn't expecting that and definitely don't feel she is, but I could see why SHE feels that way!

If I had any "struggle" reading this volume, it's that the new character reminds me SO much of Sebek from Twisted Wonderland, and I had such a hard time not comparing the two. LOL! I personally didn't mind, as I really like Sebek, but seeing another character so similar made me giggle in its own right, even though I probably shouldn't have when tensions were so high. LOL!

Overall, definitely another amazing volume, even though…WHAT WAS THAT CLIFFHANGER?!! I NEED VOLUME THREE ASAP!!

Francesca knows everything that's gonna happen but somehow this makes her confused rather than smart which is annoying to read about. On top of that all the flashbacks are making me yawn because they are so random. Not to mention Leonardo is in his own world and he is trying to be mysterious when he is simply an under developed character. But I could get past Leonardo's lack of complexity if at least Francesca had something to offer. Surprise surprise she does NOT.

Unfortunately I cannot help but compare this story to 7TL and I have to say it doesn't hold a candle to the latter.

The one thing I really really liked though was the art style. Phenomenal incredible showstopping indeed

I'll be honest. I was lost halfway through. Like, what does Leonardo want? I genuinely believe he cares for Francesca, but then he pulls shit like at the end of this manga. Also, Francesca, what's the point of knowing the things that are going to happen if you don't do anything to stop them. In her view, the only way to live a normal life is to avoid it the underground, but all of that is going to happen regardless. She can't live in a Utopia world and has to understand bad shit is going to happen. The only badass thing she's done so far is pull the gun at the end of this story showing that but I think she needs to realize she needs to be more active about fighting against the story. Cruising by probably won't work. I'm invested to see where this story goes because I finally feel like Francesca is going to do something and be more involved. I mean, I really want to see her give in. Francesca has lived two lives being part of a mafia family, it's time to accept this was the role she was born for.

Also, I love Graziano.

Wishing again for the light novel, because this seems like it might get kind of frustrating reading in manga format. The plot is just too complex and drawn out for shorter installments - it would be good for binging or a backup visual version if you already know the story.

Very little story progress is made in this volume, although I did enjoy Francesca getting to know and like Leonardo more. Amekawa relies a bit too heavily on her heroines being simultaneously brilliant and oddly oblivious, which makes for a lot of cute moments, but starts to drag after a while. Due to her double lives, Francesca's closer to 29 than 17 and shouldn't be as innocent and sheltered as Leonardo points out. Optimism, faith in others, and a resilient dedication to hope doesn't have to come from naivete or ignorance, so it's a teensy bit silly to have Francesca making all these epic, forward-thinking plans while missing big obvious signals about Leonardo's feelings.

Also, while I tend to get sucked into isekai type plots (not to make a pun), I do think it'd be nice to have more heroines who are strong and brave and smart and shock their impressively overpowered love interests due to just...their own inner strength, rather than a detailed background knowledge of all the world's inner workings and big events. It seems a bit unfair that the girl basically needs a cheat code in order to operate at the same level that the guy was simply born into.

But that's a larger genre complaint, I suppose. I realize I'm sounding pretty critical of this story, when the reality is that I am enjoying it: I just have higher expectations because I like this author and was hoping her second story would provide some fresher material.

The one thing I do really like is how funny this one is. Francesca's father in particular keeps making me laugh - he's so over-the-top devoted to his precious daughter's well-being that all of his violent threats to the people around her really work as humor. He'd be kind of horrifically creepy if you took any of this at face value, but it's been an amusing thread thus far - mostly because it plays so well off Francesco's exasperated attempts to calm him down.

I also really enjoyed the interaction between him and Leonardo, with Leonardo demonstrating a true understanding of his noble status and how to treat a fiancee from another high-ranking family. It's an elaborate dance that they both handle according to their own personalities.

Can't figure out yet what's going on at the party or if there's someone else doing the Evil Drug Deals and Mind Controlling, or if the story's just warping a bit due to Francesca accidentally choosing Leonardo as her game partner.

I came into this manga two volumes delayed because I hadn't realized it was licensed in English - only thought of looking it up after seeing it on the author's social media - but I kind of wish it'd taken me longer to find it, so I could binge and find out more of the plot all at once. Looks like it's going to be a pretty long road to get anywhere, although the next volume is meant to wrap up the party (and maybe drugs?) plot.

Francesca constantly interrupting the flow of the story to over-explain/infodump to the reader about what's happening or supposed to happen in every single scene is driving me crazy. The writing in general is kind of bland. Some parts are really funny, but there's nothing else behind it. Are my expectations just too high?

I read this with slightly glazed over eyes lol. Not as compelling as volume 1, but I still really enjoyed it.

I can't tell what Leo's planning, and I think that's the fun of it,

RECAP: Leo knows her power now, other main character dude, we meet her hot dad, some mafia etiquette, party and drug plot line

This is not really my usual jam and just like with volume 1 there are parts I'm interested in while other parts are less interesting to me/I'm less keen on them. So I'll call this an alright middle of the road read so far to me personally. I think I'll give it a third volume, given my library gets it, to determine if I should continue this series or not. After all this series is still publishing, as far as I can see, and I try to mainly read finished middle of the road series to avoid keeping track of more than necessary. Especially when I feel a series is middle of the road. To me a middle of the road series or book for that matter, aren't usually a bad thing. It's just something I like reading but I'm not rushing to finishing. You may call it a leisurely/chill kind of pleasure reading! Because of that, it's easier to stick with finished series and preferably shorter series.

This book was just as entertaining as the first one. The characters are continuing to grow and change. Also, we get more banter between Francesca and Leonardo!

The characters’ interactions are really the best part of these books. Francesca may be trying to avoid the game’s pitfalls but she seems to be fighting a losing battle.

It’s also fun how some characters are caught in their deceptions. Francesca’s father conceals how very much he adores her. The Ceranova heir tries to hide how he uses the rules to gain power over anyone he perceives as less worthy than himself. Only Leonardo manages to keep his secrets intact.

I'm not sure how I feel about volume 2 :/ On one hand, new love interest! On the other- I just feel like we haven't made all that much progress with the plot? The new love intrest is an uptight rule-follower who is shown to have a kind side (in the side story) but Leonardo is still the same jerk as before- and I'm sure he has his motivations but I just don't like him. The protagonist is making some more moves now tho- I'm liking seeing more of this bold side of her where she isn't afraid to stand up for what's right- I just wish we got more "personality".

I was so happy to see the next volume on ComicsPlus! In this one a whole lot of Francesca trying to make sense of the events and thinking about how to continue, lots of Leo x Francesca moments (which on the one hand I found YAS but also a bit ICK given that I just cannot tell if Leo is honest or not), great art, and a fabulous cliffhanger what will happen next and will people survive this party? I need to know! Also I want more Ricardo even though he seems so angry all the time.

This volume was just okay. It seemed bogged down by the understanding that she was trying to prevent the future somehow. I love her dad though. He is my perfect crazy man, its nice to see it as a familial love rather than romantic.

I liked the first volume a lot more, the information dumping felt like a lot more and it was told not shown.

I really like the back and forth between the two leads. The story good but a bit fast, and the volume is over all too soon. I find myself making theories and getting excited to see if I can guess what's upcoming. Definitely a fun read!

So... I really feel like plot is lost. I feel like harping on the things that are "meant" to happen, but the MC is low-key happy to ignore those things for her own desires. Meanwhile, she's not even putting her desires first because, she's STILL friendless.

I love this series, I’m really hoping Leonardo won’t be bad and actually fall for her but I do love his bad side too (it’s kinda cute) I understand why she’s suspicious but she’s always putting down when he says something cute or sweet to her. Well I’ll start vol 3 soon

3.5 stars. I like the balance of the heroine, being both street smart and savvy while also kind of dumb with things she wants and helping others.

I remember the plot of the book but honestly cannot remember if I liked it or loved it so I'll give it a 4 star for now and if I do a reread I'll rerate it!
