Reincarnated as the Least Popular Male Lead of an Otome Game, it’s Up to Me to Save the Villainess!

Akamine Ryu, a college student and lifelong gamer tries out an Otome Game for the first time and is completely hooked, only to discover that his favorite character, Elise von Mercia (the villainess), is killed in the end!

While lamenting his inability to save her, in a twist of fate, he finds himself behind the screen as one of the characters from the game [Sword of Dismarais]: Alfonse Thibault, the least popular male lead!

After a chance encounter when he comes across the real Elise, he resolves to save her from her untimely demise. Follow Alfonse as he uses the game's RPG leveling system and his previous life's game know-how to prepare for entering Bellefontaine Magic Academy, the premier magic institute on the continent and the setting of [Sword of Dismarais].

Will Alfonse be able to overcome the confines of the story laid out before him? Or will the protagonist, Mary Suette, prevail in the end with the power of plot armor? Begin reading to find out!
