The Ichijinsha-published Akuyaku Reijou no Naka no Hito series, which originated from a Shousetsuka ni Narou web novel by Makiburo, is set to receive an anime adaptation.

The storyline follows protagonist Emi, who reincarnates as Remilia, the villainess of an otome game. While Emi initially plans to create strategic relationships to dodge her character’s ending, certain occurrences cause her to lose consciousness, allowing Remilia to take over. Aware of Emi’s attempts and the events that ensued, Remilia vows to seek revenge for Emi.
