Description
Apparently, I was reincarnated into the world of an R-18 otome game with a reverse harem ending. My fiancé is the villain of the game, and the hidden capture target that opens after the reverse harem route has been cleared. Right now, the carnivorous heroine is in the middle of eating up (and messing with) the capture targets. It’s only a matter of time before the hidden route opens, and when it does, I’ll be poisoned by my fiancé. I absolutely hate pain and suffering, so I’ll ask my beloved fiancé to break off the engagement first.

The Carnivorous Heroine is Aiming for My Fiancé, The Hidden Capture Target Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on The Carnivorous Heroine is Aiming for My Fiancé, The Hidden Capture Target
This web novel is definitely... something. With its blend of adult themes, otome game reincarnation, and a dash of yandere, it certainly tries to stand out. As a quick, one-shot read, it offers a brief escape, but I walked away with mixed feelings.
First Impressions
Initially, the premise hooked me. A reincarnated mob character trying to avoid a gruesome end? Sign me up! However, I quickly found myself questioning the protagonist's decision-making. Her passivity in the face of impending doom felt frustrating. I wanted her to be proactive, to fight against her fate, but instead, she seemed resigned to it.
What Works Well
Despite my reservations, there are elements I appreciated. The male lead, Alexei, is surprisingly well-developed. He's painted as a yandere, but his actions often suggest a deeper, more caring nature. The author hints at a complex dynamic between him and the heroine, which I found intriguing. The ending, with the introduction of the "carnivorous heroine," is a promising setup for a potential sequel. The interaction between her and the protagonist was a highlight, and I'm genuinely curious to see where that dynamic leads.
Areas of Concern
My biggest issue lies with the female lead's characterization. Her lack of agency and seemingly irrational decisions were a constant source of frustration. Important plot points felt rushed and glossed over, leaving me with unanswered questions. The story's handling of consent is also questionable. While the male lead shows moments of consideration, the circumstances surrounding their first encounter leave a bad taste.

Final Verdict
The Carnivorous Heroine is Aiming for My Fiancé, The Hidden Capture Target is a flawed but ultimately intriguing read. While the heroine's passivity and the questionable consent issues are significant drawbacks, the complex male lead and the promise of a compelling sequel kept me engaged. If you're looking for a quick, smutty read with a touch of yandere romance, this might be worth your time. Just be prepared to suspend your disbelief and embrace the story's inherent weirdness. I give it a tentative 3/5. I'm interested in seeing where the sequel goes, but I hope it addresses some of the issues that plagued this first installment.
