Premise edit

Catarina Claes, the young daughter of a noble family, one day bumps her head and regains memories of her past life as a 17-year-old otaku girl. It is then that she realizes she has been reborn into the world of the otome game Fortune Lover as the game's villainess who, regardless of what route the player took in the original game, is doomed to be either exiled or killed. To avoid these routes that lead to doom, Catarina begins taking countermeasures. This, however, ends up having unexpected consequences on her relations with the other characters of the game's world.

Characters edit

Catarina Claes[a] (カタリナ・クラエス, Katarina Kuraesu, nicknamed "Bakarina" by fans[4])
Voiced by: Maaya Uchida[5] (Japanese); Jeannie Tirado[6] (English)
A 17-year-old high school student and otaku who has been reincarnated as the real-life villainess character of the game Fortune Lover after she was hit by car while heading to school. Having extensive knowledge of the game that her friend Atsuko lends her to play on, she intentionally changes the most important game scenes, altering her own path to avoid as many bad endings as possible. Even though her earth magic was weak, she makes up with excellent charisma and is even able to break through to Sirius and Keith in season 2 from dark magic taking over them respectfully. Her good-hearted nature leads to many of the main characters falling in love with her, but Catarina is too dense to understand their true intentions. Also, in her mind set, she has five Catarina personalities, discussing and solving moments whenever she's in a crisis or at times remembering game moments that plays out between videogame and real life. She has been given the nickname of "Bakarina" by fans due to her obliviousness, using the Japanese word "baka" in place of the first two syllables in her name.[7]
Geordo Stuart (ジオルド・スティアート, Jiorudo Sutiāto)[b]
Voiced by: Shouta Aoi,[8] Asami Seto[8] (childhood) (Japanese); Griffin Burns[6] (English)
A prince who became Catarina's fiancé after he inadvertently caused her to trip and injure herself, forcing him to take responsibility. In the game, Catarina uses this to her advantage to monopolize him for herself. In the good ending, he exiles Catarina and marries the protagonist, whilst the bad ending has him kill Catarina and abandoning the heroine due to guilt. Due to Catarina's continued efforts to better herself and avoid the bad endings, he now has developed genuine feelings for her and continuously tries to demonstrate his affection by confirming their engagement. However, it is overlooked by Catarina's misunderstanding after the pain on her head disappeared.
Keith Claes (キース・クラエス, Kīsu Kuraesu)
Voiced by: Tetsuya Kakihara,[8] Sora Amamiya[8] (childhood) (Japanese); Griffin Puatu[6] (English)
Catarina's adoptive brother and an earth magic prodigy. The son of a distant relative of Duke Claes, Catarina's father adopted him after her engagement with Geordo to continue the Claes family name. In the game, Catarina bullied him under the belief he was a bastard child of her father, causing him to grow up to become a womanizer. In the good ending, he has Catarina exiled and abandons his womanizing ways to be with the protagonist, whilst the bad ending has him kill his sister in a fit of rage before disappearing. To avoid these endings, Catarina goes out of her way to be a good sister to him, which does improve their relationship, but also saddles Keith with the thankless task of keeping Catarina out of trouble, mostly to no avail. Despite being her brother, he also develops feelings for Catarina.
Alan Stuart (アラン・スティアート, Aran Sutiāto)
Voiced by: Tatsuhisa Suzuki,[8] Mutsumi Tamura[8] (childhood) (Japanese); Bryce Papenbrook[6] (English)
Geordo's twin brother and Mary's fiancé. He was jealous of his more talented brother, which made him into an introvert. In the game, Catarina actually does not appear in his path, as Mary serves as the rival character instead. After Catarina becomes friends with Mary, he became angered by how she is constantly ignoring him in favour of her. This causes him to challenge Catarina to a series of tree climbing competitions, which she wins easily until she decides to compete over the piano. Over time, however, he and Catarina become friends and his relationship with his brother also becomes better. While he has a crush on Catarina, he has yet to realize this due to Mary's interference.
Nicol Ascart (ニコル・アスカルト, Nikoru Asukaruto)
Voiced by: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka,[8] M.A.O[8] (childhood) (Japanese); Nicolas Roye[6] (English)
Geordo and Alan's childhood friend and Sophia's brother. He is considered handsome by all who see him, with a smile that can charm both males and females. Details regarding his story in the game are sparse, since Catarina never played his route. Not only this, but the main rival in his route is Sophia Ascart, his younger sister as he is quite overprotective of her. Despite this though, he seems to have developed a crush on Catarina after she got him to open up to her.
Mary Hunt (メアリ・ハント, Meari Hanto)
Voiced by: Miho Okasaki[9] (Japanese); Colleen O'Shaughnessey[6] (English)
Alan's fiancée and the rival character during his path in the game. While she and Catarina had no relationship in the game, she became good friends with the current Catarina after the latter praised with her gardening skills. In the game, she fell in love with Alan after he praised her garden. But, the kind hearted Catarina praised her first, which leads to Mary having romantic feelings for her thus creating a small rivalry between Catarina and Alan. Despite being friends with Catarina, she tries hard to minimize the competition and remain as Alan's love interest.
Sophia Ascart (ソフィア・アスカルト, Sofia Asukaruto)
Voiced by: Inori Minase[9] (Japanese); Kira Buckland[6] (English)
Nicol's sister and the rival character during his path in the game, though details regarding her story are sparse since Catarina never played that route. She was considered cursed due to her silver hair and red eyes, causing her to live a life of isolation until she met Catarina and opened up to her because of Catarina's shared interest in romance books and offer to be her friend. It is eventually revealed that she is actually the reincarnation of Catarina's best friend during her previous life, Atsuko Sasaki (佐々木 敦子, Sasaki Atsuko).
Maria Campbell (マリア・キャンベル, Maria Kyanberu)
Voiced by: Saori Hayami[9] (Japanese); Melissa Fahn[6] (English)
A girl who, in Fortune Lover, was the main protagonist and original bullying target for Catarina. Due to Catarina becoming much nicer and charismatic, Maria ironically ends up falling in love with her instead, which in turn gives Maria a route of her own like Catarina. She possesses light magic that is rare for a commoner, which lead to her being alienated during her childhood. But the reason Catarina became friends with Maria is her love of sweets which she's good at.
Sirius Dieke (シリウス・ディーク, Shiriusu Dīku) / Raphael Walt (ラファエル・ウォルト, Rafaeru Woruto)
Voiced by: Toshiki Masuda,[10] Yoko HikasaEp. 11 credits (childhood) (Japanese); Chris Hackney[11] (English)

He possesses the fabled dark magic and is the second villain in a secret route where if the main protagonist did not conquer him if one goes down that path, all the characters are killed, leading to the ultimate bad ending. In his childhood, he and his mother were kidnapped by Marchioness Dieke as part of plan to transfer her ailing son's consciousness into another child that will serve as his vessel using dark magic. Seeing his mother sacrificed in front of him as part of the ritual and developing dark magic in the process, a revenge-driven Raphael seeks to kill his oppressors aided by the spirit of the man responsible for the ritual, who too seeks revenge after being killed by the Marchioness Dieke's cohorts. After brainwashing the students to frame Catarina, kidnap Maria, and temporarily placing Catarina into a deep slumber, he was eventually found in his hideout by the group, in which Catarina is able to end the darkness by revealing his true name. After overcoming the spirit, Raphael brings Marchioness Dieke to justice and eventually joins the Department of Magic.

Voiced by: Azumi Waki[12] (Japanese); Cherami Leigh (English)
Catarina's personal maid. She keeps tabs on Catarina for her mother, which usually ends with Catarina getting a stern lecture afterwards. It is revealed that Anne is the illegitimate daughter of a noble, Baron Shelley, and one of his maids. Her father decided to keep Anne in his mansion, intended as a tool for a political marriage. However, when a fire broke out in the mansion when Anne was 15, which killed her mother in the process, she was expelled after it was discovered she was scarred. She would later become Catarina's personal maid upon entering the Claes mansion.
Millidiana Claes (ミリディアナ・クラエス, Miridiana Kuraesu)
Voiced by: Akiko HiramatsuEp. 1 credits
Duchess Millidiana Claes is Catarina's biological mother and Keith stepmother. In Fortune Lover, she was a cruel stepmother to Keith since she thought Keith was her husband's bastard child with a mistress. Thanks to Catarina, Millidiana learns that this is not the case, which made her fall in love with her husband again. She is currently dismayed with her daughter's wild and unladylike behavior since the latter is engaged to a prince. As a result, she would prefer Catarina break her engagement with Geordo to save the Claes family any more embarrassment.

Voiced by: Takuto YokoyamaEp. 1 credits
Duke Luigi Claes is Catarina's biological father and Keith stepfather. After Catarina got engaged to Geordo, he adopted Keith, who was the bastard son of one of his relatives to continue the Claes family name. However, this caused a misunderstanding with his wife who thought he did not love her, and Keith was his biological son before Catarina helped cleared up the misunderstanding. Luigi loves his family and is a good boss to his servants where he defended Anne after she refuses to follow her father after the latter tried to force her into an unwanted marriage with another noble.

Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu[13] (Japanese); Adin Rudd[14] (English)
The eldest brother of Geordo and Alan, and the first prince in line for the throne.

Voiced by: Yusuke Shirai[13] (Japanese); Daman Mills[14] (English)

After inadvertently entering an engagement with the young prince Geordo Stuart, Catarina realizes that she is in the world of Fortune Lover itself, reincarnated as the villainess who is doomed to either exile or death regardless of the routes the player take in the original game. As Catarina begins taking up magic and farming as countermeasures to avoid a "doom flag", she acts friendly towards her new adopted younger brother Keith to keep him from becoming lonely. Catarina tries to get Keith to teach her golem magic, but ends up getting herself injured, leading Keith to feel guilty, attempting to isolate himself in his room. However, Catarina goes as far as chopping down his bedroom door with an axe to reach him.

Catarina is invited to a tea party where she meets Mary Hunt, a shy young girl whom she asks for advice on growing her vegetables. As the two become friends, Catarina unintentionally uses a line from Fortune Lover that Mary's fiancé, Geordo's brother Alan, was originally supposed to say to her. This causes Mary to pay more attention to Catarina. The next day, Alan visits the Claes household and accuses Catarina of seducing Mary, challenging her to a tree climbing contest as chosen by Catarina. However, he loses every time as Catarina's previous otaku incarnation was an excellent tree climber.

Reception edit

The light novel and manga have over 600,000 copies in print.[90] The manga adaptation was ranked 4th in the 2019 Next Manga Awards in the print category.[116]

LGBTQ edit

Some reviewers have described the series as focusing around Catarina Claes, who amasses a polyamorous, bisexual harem pining for her as she tries to avoid being a villain and becomes very thoughtful.[117] Reviewers pointed out three queer female characters: Mary Hunt, Sophia Ascart, and Maria Campbell, all of whom have crushes on Catarina, as reviewer James Beckett of Anime News Network pointed out.[118][119][120]

In May 2020, seven of the 10 spots of a "weekly favourite couple poll" by Anime Trending[121][122] featured Catarina paired with most of the characters.[l] After the first season ended, with a "friendship ending," one reviewer calling it a "very definitive ending for Catarina and Her Polyamorous Bisexual Harem of Doom,"[120] and the series was later praised by Rebecca Silverman and Theron Martin of the Anime News Network for being well-done, and offers "a rewarding bisexual power fantasy" which Catarina is unaware of due to her dense nature.[123]

In a piece for Anime Feminist, Alex Henderson considered the series' "fantasy world [to be] accepting of queer love and queer identity," noting acceptance of female character's crushes on Katarina and the presence of queer romance novels being "seemingly mainstream" in the series' world.[124]
