She thought she was dead but she woke up inside a novel – to an extra who will die a year later. Not wanting to die like this, Alexa decided to tame the male protagonist in the form of a dog. Two years from now, the male lead will return to his human form. In the meantime, she was thinking of leaving the Grand Duchy after receiving the right pay for doing them a favour. The problem is that when the male lead returns to his human form, he forgot all his memories.“You have to remember me, okay? There’s no point in looking so cute. Promise me!” She told him many times because she didn’t want to mistakenly die by the male lead’s hands, who became a villain. But, “You told me to remember, so I remembered everything. Alexa.”Ysildus unbuttoned his jacket.“If there’s no other way to return that favour then I have to pay it with my body.” A cute puppy that grew up into a weird wolf. Damn, what did I raise?

My Thoughts on I Became the Villain’s Trainer

"I Became the Villain’s Trainer" definitely caught my attention with its interesting premise and charming tags. Diving in, I found myself agreeing with many readers – there’s a lot to enjoy here, even if it's not perfect.

First Impressions

Initially, I was hooked by the quick pacing. So many reincarnation stories drag out the early chapters, but this one moves along at a satisfying clip. The setup is intriguing, and I was eager to see how the protagonist would navigate her role. I appreciate a story that doesn't waste my time, and this one seemed to respect my investment from the start.

What Works Well

The world-building is a strong point. I particularly enjoyed the incorporation of werewolves and the unique societal dynamics. The author does a good job of explaining how the protagonist, despite her initial weaknesses, finds acceptance within the wolf society, and how that acceptance ties into the overall plot. The characters, for the most part, are well-developed and engaging. There's a certain sweetness and comedic element that makes the story lighthearted and enjoyable. I especially liked the protagonist's naive charm, which, although a common trope in isekai, felt genuinely endearing in this case.

Areas of Concern

However, I can also see some potential pitfalls. One reviewer raised a valid point about the protagonist's treatment of Selina, the original heroine. The reviewer felt that the protagonist's supposed sympathy didn't translate into meaningful action, making her seem somewhat selfish and oblivious. While I didn’t necessarily feel that way, I can understand how some readers might find her actions problematic. The characters surrounding the protagonist can also come across as simplistic, with their personalities revolving solely around their feelings for her.

Final Verdict

Overall, I think "I Became the Villain’s Trainer" is a promising read, especially if you're looking for a lighthearted fantasy with romance and a unique take on the isekai genre. While it might not be groundbreaking, it offers a fun and engaging experience, provided you can overlook some of the potential flaws in character development and execution. I'm personally invested enough to keep reading and see where the story goes.
