Description
“It should be easy to kidnap and confine one of the heroines, then finish the main story written for me…” or so I thought. I was reincarnated as the villain in an obscure game that no one remembers—but with a twist. I became a character who’s insanely popular in this world, and living as the male lead. Naturally, I thought I could just ignore the game’s storyline and enjoy a lazy, carefree life. But the universe had other plans. Now, I’m forced to recreate the events of a game I barely remember, reliving each looping timeline with no choice but to step into the role I never asked for. Can I piece together the forgotten plot and navigate this bizarre new life? Or will the world itself crumble under my improvisation?

My Thoughts on Fantasy Journey? Yeah, Something Like That
"Fantasy Journey? Yeah, Something Like That" hooked me from the start with its refreshing take on the reincarnated-as-a-villain trope. It's not your typical power fantasy; instead, it's a comedic adventure with a surprising amount of heart. The premise is simple: our protagonist, Geld, finds himself in the body of a villain from a game he vaguely remembers, stuck in a time loop.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the humor. Geld is an "average dumbass" who just wants to slack off after doing the bare minimum. His attempts to manipulate the story often hilariously backfire, leading to numerous bad endings and loop resets. It's a fun twist on the genre, and it kept me entertained.
What Works Well
The story shines in its character development. Geld's emotional journey as he experiences the pain of repeated resets, especially when he forms genuine connections, is compelling. The two main heroines are also well-developed, and they play active roles in the story rather than simply being love interests. The author does a great job of exploring the consequences of Geld's actions and the emotional toll of being trapped in a time loop. The humor is well-balanced with the more serious aspects of the plot, creating a satisfying and engaging reading experience. I particularly enjoyed the creative ways Geld spent his loops, from becoming a card battler to a wild boy in the forest. It showcased his resourcefulness and adaptability, even when he was just messing around.
Areas of Concern
I did find the treatment of Geld's kouhai in the swordsmanship club a bit lacking. Her character felt underdeveloped compared to the main heroines, and her role in the story could have been more significant.

Final Verdict

Despite some minor concerns, it's a web novel that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun and refreshing take on the fantasy genre. I'm giving it a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars.
