Produced by SILVER LINK. and directed by Keisuke Inoue, My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! is a TV anime adaptation of the light novel series by Satoru Yamaguchi. Blending comedy, fantasy, romance, and slice-of-life, the series follows Katarina Claes—a girl reincarnated as the villainess of an otome game—who faces doom flags on every route. With series composition handled by Megumi Shimizu, the show masterfully balances laugh-out-loud humor with heartfelt character dynamics. Katarina's earnest yet oblivious charm inadvertently wins the hearts of those around her, including Gerald Stuart and Keith Claes, making this a must-watch for fans of isekai and romantic comedy.

Set in a magical kingdom where noble bloodlines and sorcery intertwine, the story follows Katarina Claes, the pampered daughter of a powerful aristocratic family. After a childhood accident leaves her with a bump on the head, she suddenly awakens memories of a previous life — and with them, a startling revelation. The world she has grown up in is none other than the setting of Fortune Lover, an otome game she once played obsessively. The catch? She isn't the game's heroine. Instead, she's been born as the story's villainess, a character whose sole purpose is to stand in the way of the protagonist's love story. According to the game's script, this role leads to only two possible outcomes: banishment or death. Armed with her knowledge of the original story, Katarina Claes must now navigate noble society, unexpected relationships, and a fate that seems written in stone — all while searching for a way to rewrite her own ending.
