Lv99 power, Lv0 communication skills. She should get a clue that her Spartan training methods would be seen as madness in this world, but nope! Patrick on the same page as her hints that at least people with more experience might get it though.

I feel really sorry for her in the kitty scene. She just wanted to pet it ;_;

Lots of butterfly effect; the heroine acting erratically (even not being reincarnated), the three muppets becoming unstable, the principal being replaced, and Yumiella herself training the students. Unless there's some "narrative force" I think that it's safe to say that the otome game plot has been derailed completely already.

The cat scene gives me major Sakaki vibes from Azumanga Daioh.

As for the butterfly effect, it would be like if that butterfly that flapped its wings was actually Goku appearing in our world. So, it is one hell of a butterfly. One of the things I like about this series is that it doesn't have some kind of need to constantly try to impose the otome game script back onto the story. It uses the game as a structure to set up a story, but then lets things evolve from there with the crazy characters that are in place. Too many otome/villainess games will have npcs still try to carry out their script from the otome game even if it doesn't make any sense to do so any longer.

Fair point on the Goku butterfly. She was supposed to be strong, but not that strong, that soon.

One of the things I like about this series is that it doesn’t have some kind of need to constantly try to impose the otome game script back onto the story.

That's a relief for me. I did read some of this series, but it was a long time ago, so I don't remember if it forced the otome game script or not.
