About My Next Life as a Villainess

Villainess follows Catarina Claes dodging doom flags after waking in an otome game. Season 1 has 12 episodes from April 5 to June 21, 2020. Season 2 named X has 12 episodes from July 3 to September 18, 2021. Both ran at Silver Link. An OVA bundled with manga volume 7 arrived September 30, 2021 with prequel vignettes.

The film opened December 8, 2023 in Japan after an Anime NYC premiere November 19, 2023 with an original story by Satoru Yamaguchi. No third season or new film has been announced. Light novels run to volume 16 as of 2026, past the anime.

Good to know

Watch season 1, then X, then the OVA, then the movie. The OVA recaps pre Catarina backstories and fits after season 2 without spoilers. The movie plays last with weekly post credit otome scenes. A pre screening recap special is optional and outside the main list. Keep release order throughout the four entries.
