Description
When I, an overworked corporate s*ave, was reincarnated into another world, I ended up as Alfred, the villain from a certain light novel who gets his comeuppance. This guy is a despicable character who steals the protagonist’s childhood friend and gets him expelled from the party, eventually leading to Alfred’s downfall and a miserable end. No way! I refuse to be the one who gets punished for his mistakes! There’s still time before the protagonist is expelled. I’ll use my knowledge of the original story to avoid the path of destruction! Determined, Alfred (the corporate s*ave) changes his ways. Gradually, he gains the respect of those around him and is eventually viewed as a hero… Meanwhile, with the expulsion flag broken, the protagonist starts acting out of character in unexpected ways due to the original plot… “Huh, isn’t this different from the original story?”

My Thoughts on Villain’s Comeuppance Reboot: A Corporate S*ave Reincarnated as the Scumbag Who Exiles the Protagonist After Stealing His Childhood Friend, but When He Was Found Out to Be a Good Person, an Ultimate Move Occurs
First Impressions
Okay, that title is definitely a mouthful! But beyond the slightly ridiculous length, I was intrigued by the premise. The idea of a corporate slave reincarnating as a villain who then tries to fix his past mistakes? That's a recipe for some potentially hilarious and heartwarming moments. I dove in hoping for a fun, self-aware take on the reincarnation trope.
What Works Well
The comedic undertones really shine in this story. I found myself chuckling at the MC's internal monologues and his attempts to navigate the mess he's inherited. The author seems to be doing a solid job of creating believable character interactions. I especially appreciate the way the MC acknowledges the original story's flaws. It's a clever way to address potentially problematic plot points and turn them into opportunities for character development. The writing style itself is easy to get into, and the chapters I read flowed smoothly. It’s easy to get invested in seeing how the MC manages to redeem himself and change the fate of those around him. The promise of seeing the protagonist's reaction to the MC cleaning up his act is also a huge draw.
Areas of Concern
Honestly, at the point I'm at, I don't have any major complaints. The story is still developing, and I'm eager to see where it goes.
Final Verdict
"Villain’s Comeuppance Reboot…" is shaping up to be a genuinely enjoyable read. If you're looking for a lighthearted fantasy with a unique spin on the reincarnation genre, this might be right up your alley. The well-written characters and comedic elements make it a fun and engaging experience. While it's still early days, I'm optimistic about the potential of this story and I'm looking forward to seeing how the MC's actions continue to reshape the world around him. I'd recommend giving it a try, especially if you enjoy stories that poke fun at themselves while still delivering a compelling narrative.
