“Brother, I loved you since before I was born!” Corporate s*ave Yukimura Rina was reincarnated as the villainess Ekaterina from an Otome game. In her past life, she was obsessed with the brother of the Villainess, Alexei, but seeing him in real life is so much better than in the game! It’s just that, her brother’s upbringing is just so sad that she cries every time she thinks about it! “Okay!

And as time goes by, her plan to avoid the heroine and the prince death flag has become more and more messed up. Why? No no, the two of them are good people and good friends, but… “Prince, stay far far away from me.” Even so, the settings of the Otome game she played before are completely messed up in this world, nothing is the same. Anyways! The evil villainess Ekaterina will do her best for the sake of her brother!

My Thoughts on Villainess Is Changing Her Role to a Brocon
I dove into "Villainess Is Changing Her Role to a Brocon" with a mix of curiosity and amusement, and overall, I've found it to be a pretty enjoyable read, even if it has a few quirks. The premise alone is enough to grab your attention, and while it might not reinvent the villainess reincarnation genre, it offers a refreshing twist that keeps things interesting.
First Impressions
Right off the bat, I was intrigued by the concept. A villainess reborn with a serious brother complex? Sign me up! The initial chapters do a decent job of setting the stage, introducing us to Ekaterina and her over-the-top sis-con brother, Alexei. I could immediately tell that the potential for humor and heartwarming moments was high, and I wasn't disappointed.
What Works Well
What I appreciate most is the dynamic between Ekaterina and Alexei. It's over-the-top, sure, but there's a genuine affection there that makes it work. I also like that Ekaterina retains some of her modern sensibilities, making her a more relatable and intelligent protagonist. The story explores the reasons behind Ekaterina's villainous actions in her previous life, and why Alexei is so doting, which adds depth to their relationship. The original heroine, Flora, is also a welcome addition, avoiding the typical white lotus trope and instead becoming a genuine friend to Ekaterina. It's refreshing to see positive female relationships in this genre.
Areas of Concern
While I generally enjoyed the story, I did notice a few areas that could be improved. The pacing can be a bit slow at times, with some arcs feeling stretched out. The shifting POVs, while intended to add depth, can sometimes feel jarring and disrupt the flow of the narrative. Also, the excessive praise that Alexei heaps upon Ekaterina, while initially amusing, can become a bit repetitive and overbearing.
