Kenkyo, Kenjitsu o Motto ni Ikite Orimasu

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

It was something that happened while I was waiting for the day of the primary school entrance exam. I realised that I had become one of the characters of a shoujo manga that I loved reading in my old life, ‘You Are My Dolce’.

The role I was assigned was a character who bullied the commoner protagonist and tried to get in the way of her love with a rich boy nicknamed Emperor; a typical villainess rich girl, Kisshouin Reika.

At the end of the story, Reika suffered the Emperor’s retribution and even her family fell into ruin. With the villain gone, the protagonist and the Emperor overcame their trials and became a couple. And they lived happily ever after.

Wait, that’s terrible for meee! The manga ended there, but I have to continue living my life after my family is ruined!

The protagonist can enjoy her romance or love or whatever on her own. I’ll erase my presence so that I don’t anger the Emperor.

Eh-? The story isn’t progressing well because there’s no villain, you say? But I’m busy saving up money and studying so that I can live well after the collapse.

This story is really fun and cute~ I love Reika, although her timidness sometimes makes me want to urge her along. And I just hope to see the romance soon ^-^

I really like how the translations are very detailed with this light novel. I was very impressed on how they put such great effort on displaying pictures and links to show the different kinds of culture that exist in the world of Reika. As a reader, I would really appreciate references in order to get a similar image that a character is experiencing and the group who's currently translating this novel did not fail on giving what the readers truly need.

Kenkyo Kenjitsu is a long story where the main character's... more>> plot will begin around her primary age and it will progress so on. It's actually fun to read and interesting! It's all about a girl who's keeping up with her model as a rich 'ojou-sama' (not for the reason on making the heroine and the male lead to be together, it was for her current family) and at the same time still doing the commoner things she enjoyed in her previous life (albeit sneakily). You can ship her with anyone although in the latest update, it seems her love life is nearly as impossible. Actually, she's a bonafide chaperone. Please hire her if you want someone to help you with your romance, she's really good. I highly recommend this light novel and the translation group (I also read other novels in their blog and their pretty awesome too) ! So enjoy new readers!!! :3 <<less

I really enjoy reading this novel as it is slice of life and comedy mixed with an interesting main character. My review of this novel is that I recommend reading at least 3 chapters before making a decision to drop this novel. I hope that my review has changed people's minds on if they're going to read this novel.

Very funny and light hearted story. Reika looks like a perfect oujosama but she's silly in the inside. I love how she makes jokes or thinks about the people around her in a hilarious way. I hope she finds some romance. This is one of the best translations

Mostly funny, kinda slow, slightly fluffy, and very fun!

What I like about this compared to most of those "reincarnated in otome game etc" is that the main character is super reliable, but still within realistic sense, and she's a very relatable person.

Review as of Ch.54, rated 3.5, rounded up to 4.

This is a cutesy, very shoujo manga-like slice of life novel whereby the MC somehow went into the universe of her favorite piece of shoujo fiction and taking the role of its stereotypical ojousama antagonist. Finally, a MC with the drill hairstyle!

The story is told very simply from the MC’s point of view and time passes quite quickly, punctuated by vignettes in a diary-like fashion. She sets out to try change the bad future of the host body’s original route by... more>> limiting her encounters, but that doesn’t stop her from trying to make a path of her own outside of the shoujo manga’s story. A reader of the description might think “oh this is a story where she tries to avoid the guy and ended up getting his attention” but it is still too soon to tell where the story would go. There have been several meetings between them as well the guy’s best friend, but thus far the story is more focused on the mundane: her school life, befriending others, commoner’s food, sweets, getting fat. The comedy and slice-of-life aspects are there in force, not much of the romance yet or what the story’s direction is (if any). The characters are generic but developed, some are given eccentricities that the MC did not know of when she read/watched the original fictional versions. We get to read about her on and off interactions with them, giving each character a flair to identify with. The charm of the novel thus far lies in her original commoner’s sense when dealing with idiosyncrasies of the elite characters in her new life. The translations are well done and the monologues of the MC comes across to tell us her character and feelings, and it is the MC that is the key point of the novel.
Spoiler

At one point she finally manages to get some degree of personal freedom and went to visit her original home address. The aftermath shows her longing and regrets which we don’t really get to read about in many other transmigrated stories. It’s just a minor event but it adds color and deepens the character.

[collapse]
There are many reincarnated, transmigrated, time-traveled and other such stories, but this one portrays the doubts and worries of such an MC quite realistically. How many of us truly remember the math lessons of our high school years? From her lack of memory and knowledge of her previous school life to finding an unexpected crush, the author manages to develop a MC that is believably flawed and compelling. Too often we would read stories where the MC come into a new setting armed with the experiences of their previous life and runs over any sort of challenges they would come across. Not this one. Where some MCs are initially hobbled by the poor or humble beginnings of their second life, this MC finds herself having to work hard to live up to her privileged background of her new family.

An interesting read, will be following to see what happens next. <<less

the MC is reincarnated to the body of villainess of her favorite's manga. While retaining her memory of her past life as commoner, she determines herself to not raise any flag to the ones who have chances to ruin her and her family. Her personality is quite cute and her feeling to people around her is pretty real. She has positive thinking and hard working attitude so you might be drawn to her cute monolog. The story can be fluffy and annoying thanks to certain idiot but the comedy part... more>> in the story is good so I am looking forward to her interaction with the heroine of the manga. <<less

Very fun read. It doesn't go super deep, but it's a nice change of pace from all the other reincarnation series with OP protagonists with huge harems. Great fun, and I love the characters. The chapters from the MC's older brother's PoV are some of my favorites.

She embodies my spirit- a potato.

Ahem, but seriously, it's more interesting than the generic dense and oblivious heroines that reoccur in the "otome game reincarnation" genre light novels. Diverging from the norm, her motives are... different from the typical main characters as well *coughwhatiwoulddo*

This is an adorable, lighthearted story! The characters are cute and likeable and the amusing disparity between their personalities and images sets up a variety of hilarious situations in this comedic slice of life. Definitely recommended! One of my favourite LNs at the moment.

Easily one of the best series of this genre. It's full of charming characters, with humor reminding me a bit of Utena. The translation is also excellent, doing the material justice. Highly recommended.
