Must-Watch for July 2026! Latest Strawberry Visual for "I'm Not a Talented Villainess"
The official team has just released the 11th installment of their monthly seasonal visuals, and the theme for April is the super healing "strawberry picking"! Seeing Linglin and Huiyue after their body swap tasting strawberries together in the image really fills one with the spirit of spring.
The reason this work has become so popular, from an Ichijinsha novel to a manga, and is now set to officially hit TV screens in July 2026, lies in its "extreme contrast." The heroine, Linglin, was originally the frail and sickly "Butterfly of the Palace," yet she possesses a will of steel stronger than anyone else's. Meanwhile, the originally twisted "Ditch Rat" Huiyue, after the body swap, faces Linglin's fragile body that could collapse at any moment, showing unexpected struggles and growth.
Although the anime has been delayed from its original April release to July due to production schedules, seeing that the production company is "Doga Kobo," known for many high-quality works, along with director Mitsue Yamazaki and series composition by Yoshiko Nakamura, this three-month wait will definitely be worth it. In particular, this visual captures the spirit of Linglin feeling "incredibly happy just to be healthy," which is so expressive!
I am personally looking forward to how Manaka Iwami and Natsumi Kawaida will interpret the acting shifts after the soul swap, especially the inspirational feeling of Linglin "forging a path forward no matter how miserable the situation," which is truly refreshing among current villainess stories.
Are there any fans of the original work who want to share what the key point was that got you hooked on this series?
