Kanda Hajime, a dedicated gamer drowning in the pressures of corporate life, suddenly collapses from sheer exhaustion. To his shock, he awakens in the body of Ridd, the notorious antagonist from the popular otome game “TokiRella.” The game’s storyline spells doom for Ridd—condemnation and downfall are inevitable. Refusing to accept this bleak fate, Hajime, now Ridd, decides to use his sharp wit and insider knowledge of the game’s mechanics to carve a different path. His top priority? Healing the fractured relationships within his new family—his emotionally distant father, his isolated younger sister, and his ailing mother. With determination, he sets out to rewrite his story, one careful step at a time.
No longer content with the villain’s script, Ridd devises strategies to avoid the pitfalls that once sealed his doom. He navigates social intricacies with precision, all while keeping his true intentions hidden. The stakes are high—failure means facing the same tragic end he once mocked as a player. But Ridd is resolute, knowing that redemption lies not in power or deception, but in genuine change. His journey becomes a delicate balancing act between survival and transformation, where every choice could mean salvation or ruin.
As he works to mend broken bonds, Ridd discovers unexpected layers to his family’s suffering. His father’s coldness stems from grief, his sister’s loneliness from neglect, and his mother’s illness from unspoken despair. Slowly, he begins to dismantle the walls between them, proving that even a destined villain can rewrite his fate. The game’s predetermined ending no longer feels inevitable—Ridd is determined to live honestly, even if it means defying the very story that created him.
With each passing day, he inches closer to a future free from condemnation. But the game’s original plot lurks in the shadows, threatening to pull him back into ruin. Ridd must stay vigilant, using every ounce of his knowledge to outmaneuver the forces working against him. His journey is far from easy, but one thing is certain—he won’t let himself become the villain the world expects. Instead, he’ll forge a new path, one where he lives with integrity, no matter the cost.
