Description
I thought I was just a one-liner unnamed commoner extra. Until the villainous duke, who was known to kill every town he got into, came to light in pursuit of a single young lady. “Duke Cedric is already halfway through the Empire. I heard he’s coming to this area this month.” Why was the bloody duke looking for his youngest sister who had disappeared five years ago? “Rose hair and golden eyes.” That sister’s description was the same as mine. I think my life is ruined. *** I then became the young lady known to be the youngest child of a villainous duke who is planning to kidnap and detain the heroine. After this, I am going to live like calm water silently flowing and then I will run away. Because I don’t want to get involved in this crazy political drama in this damn novel. But… why was everything so weird? “Our Amelle, you don’t look so happy. Do you want me to buy an island and build a villa for you?” My first brother, who kills people on a normal day, is so impatient to give me something. “Our baby, can you just throw that away and live with your brother. I think I don’t like being a wizard better than I thought, no?” The second child, who left the house ten years ago to become a wizard without any hesitation, came back again and attached himself to me. “Don’t turn your eyes on the other one, Amelia.” Even the world’s worst villain, who decreased the population of the continent in half in the original story, is interested in me. “I’m sorry, gentlemen, but I’m taking the young lady with me today.” No, even the heroine, whom I should kidnap, is kidnapping me instead? All these humans must be crazy. I’m just an extra. Would you mind getting away from me, please?

The Extra Refuses Excessive Obsession Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on The Extra Refuses Excessive Obsession
Okay, so I dove into "The Extra Refuses Excessive Obsession" with a mix of excitement and trepidation, given the buzz around it and the mixed bag of initial reactions I'd seen. The premise alone – a transmigrated protagonist trying to avoid doom by…cheating her villainous brothers? – definitely piqued my interest. After reading the available chapters, here are my thoughts.
First Impressions
The initial hook is strong. You're immediately thrown into a world of European-esque aristocracy, magic, and a family dynamic that's equal parts hilarious and terrifying. The idea of the MC trying to navigate this minefield of obsessive brothers and avoid becoming collateral damage in the main plot is undeniably appealing. I found myself chuckling at her schemes, even if they were a little morally questionable.
What Works Well
The humor is definitely a standout. The story doesn't take itself too seriously, and the author seems to have a knack for comedic timing. I also appreciate the world-building; it's detailed enough to be immersive without being overwhelming. The characters, even the potentially unlikeable ones, are well-developed and have their own motivations, making them feel more than just cardboard cutouts. Despite some of the MC's…questionable choices, I still found myself rooting for her, even if it was just to see what ridiculous situation she'd get herself into next.
Areas of Concern
The MC's moral compass is a bit wonky, and I can see why some readers might struggle to connect with her. Her initial plan to essentially scam her brothers for a comfortable getaway is…not the most heroic thing to do. While it adds to the comedic aspect, it does make it harder to fully invest in her as a protagonist. Also, the translation quality might be a barrier for some. While generally understandable, there are definitely moments where the phrasing feels a bit off, which can disrupt the flow of the story.
Final Verdict
Despite a few reservations about the MC's ethics and some translation hiccups, "The Extra Refuses Excessive Obsession" is a genuinely entertaining read. It's a fun, lighthearted take on the transmigration genre with a unique premise and a cast of quirky characters. If you're looking for a comedic fantasy with a dash of romance and a whole lot of shenanigans, this might just be the novel for you. I'm definitely sticking around to see what happens next.
