Description
When I noticed, I was surrounded by a bunch of people wearing kimonos. When I looked into the river water, what was there was a young child… Eh, it’s me!? The place where I washed ashore was a gaudy neighborhood, Yoshiwara. Huh? But it looks like the ones behind the lattice are men. The ones who picked up the still young me from that strange place was an old man from a brothel called the『Amazuki Brothel』. The place I was brought to was a men filled red light district. It seems that over here, men who had no choice but to become prostit**es were called Yuudan (male courtesan). Then I was given the name Nogiku and made to hide from the female customers and provide assistance. For some reason I was also given courtesan training, but I’m not male!! I don’t want to learn how to seduce women!! However, when I became 16 I looked at the handsome men who’d grown up with me as comrades and realized. This was the world of『Seeing a Dream Male Courtesan District ～A night spent together～』. I couldn’t even recall about myself but for some reason I remembered that I had played that game. Nogiku was that otome game’s villain character. She got in the way of the protagonist’s love who sought to get closer to the men, and in the end she would even kill, she was a woman who wasn’t choosey of her methods. Because she was that type of woman she was given hellish punishment by the protagonist and co, but… I don’t want thaaaaAAAt! I won’t interfere. I can only consider my fellows as older brothers, as something like comrades in arms!! I intend to help stealthily from the shadows.

Sumi de ii Desu. Kamawanaide Kudasai Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Sumi de ii Desu. Kamawanaide Kudasai
Sumi de ii Desu. Kamawanaide Kudasai (roughly translated as "Just Stay in the Corner. Please Leave Me Alone") is a refreshing take on the reincarnation-into-an-otome-game trope. I jumped into this novel expecting the usual fare, but I was pleasantly surprised by its unique setting and the protagonist's gradual journey of self-discovery.
First Impressions
Right off the bat, the oriental setting sets this story apart. Instead of the typical Western-inspired nobility or RPG fantasy world, we're immersed in a culture that feels both familiar and new. The protagonist's age also plays a significant role. We're not dealing with an all-knowing, overpowered adult in a child's body. Instead, we see a realistic portrayal of a reincarnated soul slowly piecing together fragments of her past life.
What Works Well
The protagonist's gradual awakening to her past life is a major strength. She doesn't suddenly remember everything; instead, she slowly uncovers details, making her feel more relatable and grounded. Watching her navigate her new world as a child, forming bonds with friends, and adjusting to her new reality is genuinely heartwarming. This approach offers a more believable and engaging narrative than many other stories in the genre. The comedy is well-placed, adding a lighthearted touch without detracting from the overall plot. I found myself chuckling at the protagonist's antics and her interactions with the other characters.
Areas of Concern
While the slow-burn reveal of the protagonist's past life is a strength, it might not appeal to all readers. Some might find the pacing a bit slow, especially in the initial chapters. If you're looking for a story that immediately throws you into the thick of things, this might not be it. However, if you appreciate character development and a gradual unfolding of the plot, you'll likely find it rewarding.
Final Verdict
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed Sumi de ii Desu. Kamawanaide Kudasai. It's a well-written and engaging story that offers a fresh perspective on the reincarnation trope. The unique setting, relatable protagonist, and gradual unfolding of the plot make it a worthwhile read. If you're a fan of otome game stories with a twist, I highly recommend giving this one a try.
