I, a serious careerwoman who's always on the grind, found myself reincarnated as Cinderella's stepsister Petra! Unlike in the fairytale, Cinderella is a beautiful yet sloppy couch potato—making me struggle to use my knowledge and raise her to be a proper lady so she can get married to the prince as planned. But the world misunderstands my strict style and starts calling me an "evil stepsister..." On top of that, the mysterious hunk Eric hears this rumor and starts rudely accusing me of bullying Cinderella out of jealousy! But what I get for fighting back is an unexpected, genuine apology from him...?
A sweet and uplifting love story of what comes after Cinderella's happy ending!
I really like the take on the Cinderella story, combined with the isekai genre. Enough so that I purchased the next volume as well. Annoyed with the patriarchal society, but Sir Eric is a sweetie!
4, that self-inflicted hair cut at the end was kinda sad and brutal but it worked I guess, stars.

Some difficulty distinguishing who was speaking. Good artwork. First time I’ve seen multiple reincarnations in a single story. I think I’ll give the next volume a try.
Eigentlich gehe ich Cinderella-ähnlichen Geschichten eher aus dem Weg, aber diese hat mich nicht nur von seiner optischen Gestaltung her angesprochen, sondern auch wegen der Beschreibung.
Hauptfigur ist hier nicht Cinderella, sondern eine ihrer Stiefschwestern - Petra. Doch Petra ist nicht die typische "Stiefschwester", sondern wurde in die Geschichte von "Cinderella" wiedergeboren. Mit all ihrem Wissen aus ihrem vorherigen Leben. Bisher hatte sie sich darum gekümmert, dass Cinderella mit ihrem Prinzen glücklich wird. Doch damit fängt ihre Geschichte erst so richtig an.
Petra ist unheimlich intelligent und lässt sich nichts sagen. Sie hat eine starke Meinung und einen unheimlich guten Geschäftssinn. Sie ist eine tolle Protagonistin, die ihren Weg geht und sich dabei in einer von Männern dominierten Welt nicht unterkriegen lässt.
Die Geschichte ist wirklich sehr interessant und ich mag sie sehr. Schade, dass es bisher noch keinen zweiten Band gibt. -.- Den würde ich mir sofort holen. Selten hat mich in diesem Jahr eine Geschichte so abgeholt und fasziniert wie diese. Zudem trifft der Zeichenstil voll meinen Geschmack. ;)
I bought it based on the premise and sample. I am disappointed. The explanation of the two sisters getting reincarnated together was haphazard and unclear.
Then the male love interest is wildly disrespectful and egotistical. But we are supposed to like him because he said sorry and invited Petra to a conference? Yeah no.
Petra goes to the conference, knowing that she’s unwanted, speaks very arrogantly and out of turn then makes a whole scene cutting her hair somewhat short and wants to be identified as a man. All the while the male lead is just laughing the entire time.
On top of that the older sister seems shelved away. So it doesn’t even seem necessary to have them be sisters in a previous life.
Cinderella is not a good person because she allows the misconception and mistreatment of her stepsisters to continue which she is aware of. She is unwilling to clear that up with her own husband. But has the audacity to have her sister at her beck and call.
Where did the mom go? Why didn’t she set the record straight? Maybe I wasn’t paying attention but overall, I don’t care about the story anymore.
Petra is a caring, passionate person and her approach to challenges with directness and no fear was a refreshing approach. I love the affection between sisters and passion for the country.
I ate this up! Obviously, we already know what the dude’s deal is, but I am excited to get confirmation in the next volume. With the bonus chapter being centered around the elder sister, it made me want more of her story, so I hope we get more in the next volume, too.
