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:

[midground]

What if a villainess fell in love with a girl who was also sort of her, and who she also sort of was as well? What if they never had a conversation, but everything they did was for each other? What if her name also meant "the world" and when the villainess says she's saving the world she ALWAYS means the girl? What if the girl's name became holy, and "Because it's what she would have wanted" became a litany, a prayer never spoken but engraved into every act of kindness? What if the villainess killed one god and then another and it didn't matter because none of them were her god?

Fellas, is it gay to manipulate things so that a man will fall in love with you because you think your god, your world, could find happiness with him once she takes back control of your body? Is it gay to see HER in every moment of romance he thinks is budding between you?

Anyway, everyone should go check out "The One Within the Villainess" everything it does is insane and I'm losing my mind.

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.

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.

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.

JEEEEEEZZZZZZZZ MANGAKA WENT HARD

[psychosomaticdeicide]

This, too, is yuri...?

FINALLY

[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]

Poetic cinema

[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.

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