Description
I was reincarnated in an R-19 psychological novel where the sub-male lead was blinded by jealousy and imprisoned his sister, the heroine, with whom he doesn’t share a drop of blood. The problem is that she was reincarnated as the childhood friend of the sub-male lead. She was killed by the villain as the character who tried to help the heroine! From now on, she can prevent a terrible future by preventing this guy from becoming a villain. For years like that, she struggled to stop her childhood friend from turning into a villain. “Lucy, what are you doing there?” “Go away! You can’t look!” Or preventing him from seeing the heroine being confessed to……. “Your sister has brought you flowers.” “T-The deal the woman gave you?” It was basic for her to say nonsense. * It is no exaggeration to say that she devoted her entire childhood to twisting the original. But why… “Let’s go back, this is not where you will be, but my room.” Why is he trying to imprison her instead of his sister…? “Let me bite your ankle once. Then I’ll let you out of here.” If she gets bitten, he’ll be able to see where she is and what she’s doing! However, it seemed that her voice could not reach his ears. It’s not only that she couldn’t stop her childhood friend from becoming twisted, but she’s going to be imprisoned as well.

My Thoughts on I Couldn’t Stop my Childhood Friend from Turning Into a Villain
Okay, buckle up, because "I Couldn’t Stop my Childhood Friend from Turning Into a Villain" is quite the ride. I jumped into this web novel expecting a fluffy romance with a hint of darkness, and while it delivers on some fronts, it definitely has its quirks.
First Impressions
Initially, I was completely charmed. The early chapters are undeniably cute. Lucy and Liel's childhood interactions are heartwarming, and I found myself rooting for them. Cordelia, the original female lead, adds a sweet older sister dynamic that I really appreciated. The premise of trying to prevent a villainous turn is also immediately engaging.
What Works Well
The relationship between Lucy and Liel is definitely the strongest aspect. Liel's character, in particular, is fascinating. He has this mysterious elegance, and his devotion to Lucy, even with his darker tendencies, is compelling. I enjoyed unraveling the mysteries surrounding his past and the reasons behind his obsessive nature. The author does a decent job of exploring the characters' perspectives, which helps to understand their motivations. For those who are interested in the more mysterious parts of the novel, the twists are well done and the reason for the ML to be a yandere is well explained.
Areas of Concern
Unfortunately, my enthusiasm waned as the story progressed. The plot seemed to lose its way after the academy arc, and I felt like the author started meandering. Some plotlines felt unnecessary and didn't contribute to the overall narrative. Additionally, I found the pacing to be inconsistent, with some arcs dragging on while others felt rushed.

However, the inconsistent plot and pacing issues ultimately detracted from my overall enjoyment. If you're looking for a cute and angsty read with a yandere male lead, this might be worth checking out, but be prepared for some bumps along the way. I'd give it a cautious recommendation, maybe read the first few chapters and see if it clicks with you.
