#one within the villainess

[oh-no-its-bird]

YESSSSSS WE GOT MORE THORNE AND VISCOUNT LORRAINE CONTENT IN THE NEW BONUS CHAPTER I AM CLAWING AT THE WALLS JUMPING UP AND DOWN TO SEE IT

Theyre so fucking cute I'm gonna throw up, I love their interactions. Thorne exists in some sort of perpetual state of "mildly uncomfortable" and Lorraine is so loud and overbearing in such an unapologetic way, it's so fun to see.

Thorne being "seen through" by Lorraine and feeling upset by it while Lorraine finds that side of him "charming" ,,,

I like how he says "You are actually quite charming", like, before he was presumably just another friendly merchant. A type of person Lorraine has for sure seen plenty of before, being who he is. But in seeing his smug side in just a quiet little expression, Lorraine is suddenly so much more endeared

Cute !!! I love them !!!!!

Meanwhile Thorne continues to be seen through by those around him,,,, tho now that I type this out, the last we saw him upset by being perceived a bit too hard I think was just Remilia? That's kinda fun to think ab

Meanwhile I think it says a bit about Lorraine too, like, he seems like this silly, unpractical guy. But with just a catch of an expression of Thorne's he was instantly recatogorizing him and going "(seeing you like this) I feel like I've figured you out"

I also have to wonder a bit at what exactly made Thorne feel so seen here. Was it his smugness at seeing things line up well? Or was it his fondness and pride in Remilia and his king? There are definitely a few different ways to read it

Anyways. Also losing my mind over the BONUS SKETCHES

THORNE IN SITUAT9IUNS SAOUGUHHFHHHH HH

[Car crash sfx]

Long haired Thorne is so pretty actually, I love him so much. AND THEN ?? THORNE IF HE'D INSTEAD BEEN CAUGHT BY PINA ???

Locked in a basement somewhere, forced to make potions he doesn't actually know how to make <3 He just sells them, Pina you dumb bitch !!! Let my man go !!!!

The fact that he's clearly in a whole ass cell is wild to me, oh my god my poor man. He looks like Pina's either been neglecting him or maybe trying to beat the answers out of him, or, likely, both.

I'm having fun thinking about this au actually. I do think he's try to insist he's doesn't know how to make (most) of the things he sells, especially the potions that Pina wants. Bc, yk, he doesn't. We met the guy who does, who's still in the demon realm.

But like. I can not see Thorne giving away who does make them. He cares too genuinley for his people, he'd never give one up. And honestly, even if he did, the guy is out of reach.

Anyways just. Thorne <3

I love the one within the villainess so much, we're being fed so well. Everyone say thank you Shiraume and Makiburo !!!

[moontheoretist]

I love Remillia. Can she marry me? I could use a mastermind like her. She'd destroy all of my enemies while benefiting our nation all at once. This is some chess 5d level shit she is doing right there. While Pina is not only utterly stupid but also very ugly inside. Her soul is trash.

Just look at her dumb face lol. Serves you right, Pina.

And in regard to your convo. Pina is seriously an idiot. She thinks of herself so highly that she doesn't even take threats seriously. WTF.

Not to mention how unhinged her proposal is.

Yeah, what indeed.

Manga Rec: The One Within The Villainess

Hey tumblr, I heard you like unhinged women.

The One Within The Villainess is the story of the elaborate revenge plan the protagonist/villainess Remilia enacts on those who had hurt the one she loves the most: the girl who was possessing her body.

It starts as a typical Isekai: Emi, a girl from our world, dies and reincarnates in the body of the villainess of her favorite otome game, Remilia, and decides she will live a happy, generous life. But here is the thing: Remilia is not gone. She is trapped inside her own body, so she can both acess Emi's past memories and watch as Emi lives her life.

And Remilia loves it.

The villainess, from within her own body, genuinely starts to love and adore Emi as her own sister.

But then something (or better, someone) happens (if you know the genre, you can imagine what), and all the friends Emi had tried so hard to make to give the villainess Remelia her happiness suddenly betray her. And the emotional shock is so strong that Emi gets "reverse isekaied": she goes to sleep inside the villainess, and Remilia, who had been watching over her for years now, takes control of her own body back.

And my girl is insanely pissed.

And so starts the journey of our villainess to both achieve "The Villainess Remilia's Happiness" that Emi tried so hard to give her and enact her extremely elaborated and cruel revenge plot against those who took Emi from her. She's unhinged and insanely smart and I love her.

The support cast is pretty good too, and the artwork is amazing. The plot doesn't fall back into cliches and the pay off is immensely satisfying.

Please, give The One Within the Villainess a try. You can read it here. And if you do read it let me know what you think!

Imo the most impressive thing Leo’s done is hold this pose for as long as he did while covered head to toe in gold paint:

[thebiscuiteternal]

Also, can I just say, I am deeply in love with Shiraume Nazuna for spending more than one two-page spread showing off how horribly gaudy that dress was even in full shoujo sparkles and flowers mode. Look at this thing. A+ tacky. The only thing is I wish it was in color so we could see how truly overdone it is. Maybe we'll be so lucky in one of the next chapters.

[nonameidentified]

Okay so, I've been reading The One Within The Villainess and it was supposed to be a non-yuri read, but- but-

I've gathered a list

1) They call eachother "dear" and "my" and the combination of "my dear" all the fucking time

2) Just this statement. 🏳️‍🌈❓

3) The actual plot. Take revenge on everyone that has wronged her? Creat a safe world for her? MY EMI???

3.5) You are the strongest version of yourself because she loved you??? Ma'am do you know how gay you sound?

It's official, everything I read some how turns into yuri.

[coralinnii]

Hey there sorry to bother you but i have a question, what is the name of the manga on your banner of your latest work called Getting Culture Shock from Your Friendly Family?

No need to apologize! It's a panel from a Japanese villainess isekai manga called "The One Within the Villainess"

It's starts with a typical modern teen transmigrated into a villainess's body, but the OG villainess is actually still inside the body's subconscious watching everything through MC. But, the OG villainess learns to love MC's kind nature and starts to support her.

So when the heroine saint and the target routes exile the MC for crimes she didn't do, the OG villainess suddenly switched back and is hellbent on getting revenge on everyone, like a true villainess!

I really recommend this story and I'm not sure if the author is secretly Junji Ito but the art can be horrifyingly gorgeous at times, and I love it!

seriously, get you a woman who can do both.

[psychosomaticdeicide]

This, too, is yuri...?

FINALLY

[oh-no-its-bird]

FELLOW THORNE FAN SPOTTED????? i love him sm his funny little reactions get to me everytime

YESSSS I LOVE THORNE SO MUCH HE IS SO SILLY AND SO CUTE AND SO STRESSED!!!! I love when he does his little cat eyes,, he's so fucking cute, and his reactions are always so funny

My wife,, the village people also agree he is cat coded, which fills me with glee

HE CARES ABOUT HIS PEOPLE SO MUCH HE'S SO COMMITTED TO THE VILLAGE AND ITS PEOPLE AND ITS CHILDREN ESPECIALLY I LOVE HIM SM!!

HES LITERALLY HAD THE GOAL OF JUST HELPING HIS FELLOW DEMONS SINCE HE WAS A CHIILLDDD PLS ALL HE WANTS IS FOR HIS PEOPLE TO BE SAFE

I love him SO much, he is The Favorite, I think. I wanna add more photos of him but Tumblr is maxing me out at 10. But like!!!! He's so cute!!!!!!! I need to see him go through The Horrors.

Anyways take this from my notes app:

I think Thorne would be funny to put in Naruto bc he is, at his heart, just a guy. Just a silly little guy who has skill in like, management and selling things. And running a village, actually, which could be interesting in itself to squint at w Konoha.

But he's also like. A demon. A demon w little to no skill in battle who would probably die miserably in like all of 1 second if tossed at literally anyone in Naruto.

But also like, he runs a magic shop! What the fuck, that's cool.

I started daydreaming ab him being tossed into Naruto before we got the confirmation that he didn't really make (at least the main potions) he sold. But also like, canon is what I wish it to be, so it'd be cool if he did make some of those potions and trinkets, or at least had their recipies, so.

But also we could just toss him a bag of holding or smthn filled with some of his stock. But also it could be fun to just play w him trying to make his usual things and trinkets but like !!! Uh oh !!! The magic (chakra) here is totally wack !!! Now he has to find out how to adapt his potions recipies for the magic in the air, and they keep coming out weird / stronger / weaker than usual...

But ummm demon guy with -5 stats in fighting trying to scrape by undetected in Naruto world while operating a magic shop, while waiting for Remillia to hopefully come save him (which like, she would. Bc she's Remillia and literally not even god can stand in her way) (hes going to get fucking demolished the second any ninja so much as catches a wiff of him)

He ends up adopting Naruto bc ofc he does.

Demon connection!!!!

The kids in the demon village seem to love Thorne, and he has an advantage w Naruto too bc like. Baby Naruto being shunned by the village being adopted by an ACTUAL literal demon from the demon realm.

Would pay to see it tbh.

Thorne tries to free Kurama,,,,,

He sees people scared of the fox and is like "oh no...demon racism strikes again... this poor guy...."

And Kurama goes "yeah lmao, it was the racism. I pinkie promise I didn't flatten like half the village twice."

Actually tho. Thinking. Bc in TOWYV, demons dealt with the Frenzy curse, which'd make them go totally berserk and literally eat even their loved ones. So Thorne might actually have some context to legitimately empathize with Kurama ab being controlled by the sharingan to flatten Konoha that one time. It's a similar fear he shared with pretty much all of demon kind, not so long ago. (Even if Kurama cared less about the being made to kill people than loss of control)

Idk, could be interesting

Ummm final thoughts: read The One Within The Villainess

[shouts-into-the-void]

Honestly loving how the series makes it clear that Remilia is still unhinged and manipulative, but that she's no longer a truly bad person because of the love that she was able to experience through Emi.

Something something, loving someone so much it changes the entire narrative.

[nobodys-saviour]

SHES SO PRETTY WE ARE FEASTING

[thebiscuiteternal]

I love how these two basically became us, sitting in the background with popcorn.

[fumifooms]

King of staying in his lane I love youuuu

[revolver115]

The One Within the Villainess has some good drama, good monster designs that feel SO eldritch that it fits their status as higher beings perfectly...

and also the one time "I can fix her" actually works, though Remilia being in Emi's head for 10+ years probably had something to do with that.

So, 10/10. Amazing, dramatic, hooked so hard I feel like a newbie DBD player.

[unhonestlymirror]

While being hilarious, this page is also incredibly sad because Remilia truly believes not even Angel is capable of loving not the "Emi" facade but her. She doesn't even love Angel herself (yet?), she's just engaged because she believes that's what Emi would want. She really believes no one loves her except for the only person who's basically deceased now. Remilia truly believes she's inherently evil and that's why nothing in world matters except for Emi, and that's the most tragic part of the story for now.

I'm really curious how it's gonna end because what if Emi never comes back? Will Remilia lose all the will to live?
