Description
When I opened my eyes, I was inside a dating sim. As the childhood friend heroine, Amatsuki Suzuna. And the one who appeared before my eyes was the listless, clingy protagonist. … Honestly, not my type. I have zero romantic experience, but being pursued is a bit of a problem. That’s right, then, if I continue to break the flags so I won’t be pursued, I can be demoted to a mob character. I’ll leave going out with the protagonist to the other girls… Hey, Heroine-san? Aren’t you a little close? Our skin is touching, and I can even hear your breathing. Um… the target of your affection, it’s not me, okay?

My Thoughts on I’m a Childhood Friend, and I Want to Remain a Supporting Character, but for Some Reason I Became the Heroine’s Love Interest
Okay, let's dive into this title – and what a mouthful it is! "I’m a Childhood Friend, and I Want to Remain a Supporting Character, but for Some Reason I Became the Heroine’s Love Interest" promises a fun twist on the reincarnation genre, and for the most part, it delivers. I went in expecting some lighthearted comedy and maybe a bit of fluffy romance, and I wasn't disappointed.
First Impressions
The premise is immediately engaging. A protagonist trying to avoid the spotlight in a world based on a game she knows? Classic setup, but with a yuri twist that definitely piqued my interest. I was curious to see how the author would subvert the usual tropes and how the MC's attempts to stay out of the heroine's romantic path would backfire.
What Works Well
The character interactions are a definite highlight. The dynamic between the MC and the heroine is genuinely entertaining, with plenty of misunderstandings and awkward situations arising from the MC's efforts to play matchmaker. The comedy is well-executed, and I found myself chuckling at the MC's increasingly desperate attempts to remain a "supporting character." I especially like that the heroine falls in love first, it's a refreshing twist on the genre. I also appreciated the clear story structure, it made it easy to follow the plot's development.
Areas of Concern
While the story is enjoyable, it's not without its flaws. The biggest issue I encountered was the translation quality. While grammatically correct, some sentences felt a bit clunky and lacked natural flow, hinting at possible machine translation edits. This didn't ruin the experience, but it did require a bit more effort to fully grasp the nuances of certain scenes.
Final Verdict
Overall, "I’m a Childhood Friend, and I Want to Remain a Supporting Character, but for Some Reason I Became the Heroine’s Love Interest" is a fun and engaging yuri novel with a unique premise and enjoyable character dynamics. While the translation could use some polish, the story's strengths outweigh its weaknesses. If you're looking for a lighthearted read with plenty of comedy, romance, and a dash of drama, this might be right up your alley. I'd give it a solid 4/5.
