So today I learned that Kenkyo Kenjitsu o motto ni Ikite orimasu is a thing- a light novel with a protagonist who learns that she's mysteriously been reincarnated as the evil 'ohohoho' laughing villainess of her favorite shoujo manga and is determined to be a decent person so she doesn't hit that character's bad ending. Sadly only like 4 chapters of the first volume of been translated but just the premise is amazing.

So I recently took a look at "I will live my second life" which I'd passed over because I figured from the title that it was another video game protagonist in an RPG fantasy world" thing, but no. No RPG elements at all! Not reincarnation. Surprisingly decent translation! Slavery is not treated as a good thing the protagonist should just accept! Why is it so goddamn sad that my standards have fallen so low that these are all selling points! It's the most "American YA Fantasy as a Japanese Light novel" story I've ever seen, really. In fact if you put "Tamora Pierce" on the author line I wouldn't actually doubt it.
