the protagonist, marie is a true villain through and through. she gets whatever she wants whenever she wants and knows she's filthy and filthy rich. she finds herself stuck in a time loop every time she dies and must figure out who is getting her killed in every timeline to avoid a gruesome fate. she finds out various women she's wronged throughout her lifetime have it out for her. marie must figure out who they are, how she's wronged them, and prevent her death.

i love the art. it's very bubbly and cute. i also like that, as the story progresses, marie becomes more repulsed by men. at one point she says, "you can still have a wonderful love even without men, you know!" and she's so real for that. however, i'm going to stop at this volume because they've introduced her busty half-sister and a half-sister who is literally a child at the end. i have a gut feeling this is not going to go in a direction that won't be problematic. this volume was interesting, smutty, and has a refreshing take on the villainess formula but there isn't possibly more that it can offer before things get repetitive and weird.

This was waaaay funnier than I expected it to be!!

The maids were so smart as well in that bonus story ;)

Really looking forward to how the rest plays out and to see the harem grow.

Also, Marie in that suit...speechless♡
