It's not even his (expected) decision to stay that makes this chapter so good, it's how he's finally no longer just passively accepting everything and actually speaking up about his own wishes. ^_^
Also, Shiori's got a lotta nerve calling Miko a monster when she herself has basically said, "Once you find happiness and a will to live, then I'm gonna kill you."
Well, Shiori's never claimed not to be a monster herself, quite the opposite.
I'm confused. So this is a tankobon compilation of the web series? Or that and the serialized version?
MAL's background info section describes it as following:
Shoujo Manga Shujinkou x Rival-san began as a web comic on the author's Twitter and pixiv accounts on May 24, 2019. The first volume containing the web chapters with extras was released by Square Enix on April 22, 2020, and serialization began in Gangan Joker on the same day.
So according to this, looks like the web series is considered part of the serialization.
Theory: The system is trying to force the heroine towards one of the LIs. She's got her own system popups that she's actively avoiding in order to chase Evie. That's why she got possessed the first chapter: she was being punished.
Plausible enough, especially since Evie's orders were also to push her or watch her jump. The system is adjusting their behavior towards the expected story by any means necessary.
I kinda like it but also it makes no sense. Having pop up messages like that with tasks means you wouldnt have been reborn on some other world- its literally inside a game and nobody is real right? Or is this fantasy world literally run by some super computer in orbit somehow lol?
After seeing Ore no Nounai Sentakushi ga, Gakuen Love Comedy wo Zenryoku de Jama Shiteiru, nothing surprises me anymore.
i wonder...will the villainess system disappear or not if both of them start going out or get married
It seems to be designed to ensure she fulfills her role, so it seems unlikely. Although on the other hand, we have seen love magically create happy endings before.
Not too fond of the villainess system, even less so after she's already exiled, but it does work as an interesting way to keep the story going.
Now I wonder whether there exists a yuri equivalent for Ore no Shibou Flag ga Todomaru Tokoro wo Shiranai. There seems to be for almost everything, after all.
