Description
Lucinda Lancaster was adopted by an earl from an orphanage, and on her tenth birthday, she regained her memories of her previous life. Lucinda loved fantasy RPGs, and now that she has been reincarnated in a world of swords and magic, she decides to become a magician and start her journey as an adventurer in the future. At the age of fifteen, she enrolled in a magic academy where she was told by a mysterious beautiful girl that this was the world of an otome game and that she was a villainous daughter. “I’m going to ignore the romance with my step brother, the prince, my homeroom teacher, and the prime minister’s son, and live a serious school life! I don’t know why everyone is so interested in me, but I’m just going to aim for the path to becoming a magician!”

My Thoughts on What!! This Is an Otome Game? but I’m Going To Be a Magician so I Won’t Go After the Game Capture Targets
This title. It's a mouthful, I know! But don't let it scare you off. "What!! This Is an Otome Game? but I’m Going To Be a Magician so I Won’t Go After the Game Capture Targets" is a light-hearted reincarnation story that, while perhaps not reinventing the wheel, offers a genuinely enjoyable reading experience.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise. Another reincarnation into an otome game world? Sure, we've seen it before. But the protagonist's firm decision to ditch the romance and focus on mastering magic immediately piqued my interest. It felt like a refreshing twist on a well-worn trope.
What Works Well
The story excels at creating unexpected, smile-inducing situations. It manages to be both relaxing and engaging, perfect for those times when you just want to unwind with a fun read. I found myself genuinely invested in the protagonist's journey to magical mastery. The academy setting provides a great backdrop for her adventures and the interactions with other characters, especially the "villainess noble girls", are often humorous and heartwarming. I feel the strength is definitely in the comedy and the female lead's determination. It's easy to root for her as she navigates this new world on her own terms.
Areas of Concern
While the story is generally well-received, one potential pitfall I foresee is the handling of romance. I hope the author resists the urge to shoehorn in a romantic subplot just for the sake of it. The focus on magic is what makes this story stand out, and I'd love to see that continue to be the primary focus, with any romance developing organically and later in the story, if at all.
Final Verdict
Overall, "What!! This Is an Otome Game? but I’m Going To Be a Magician so I Won’t Go After the Game Capture Targets" is a promising and entertaining read. It's perfect for those looking for a lighthearted, funny, and engaging fantasy story with a strong female lead. If you're a fan of the otome game reincarnation genre and enjoy a good dose of magic, I think you'll find something to love here. I'm definitely adding this one to my reading list!
