Studio Platinum Vision is producing the animation of I’m in Love with the Villainess, which is based on the light novel series of the same title (Japanese: 私の推しは悪役令嬢 - Watashi no Oshi wa Akuyaku Reijō) written by Inori and illustrated by Hanagata. Originally published in January 2018, it was acquired by Ichijinsha at a later date and has published a total of five volumes. A manga adaptation by Anoshimo was released in June 2020. The light novels are licensed in English by Seven Seas Entertainment, which shared the following story description:
Ordinary office worker Ohashi Rei wakes up in the body of the protagonist of her favorite otome game, Revolution. To her delight, the first person to greet her is also her favorite character, Claire Francois—the main antagonist of the story!
