The light novel series by Sarasa Nagase, with illustrations by Mai Murasaki, was first published on Shosetsuka ni Naro in May 2017 before being acquired by Kadokawa Shoten. Anko Yuzu serialized a manga adaptation in Monthly Comp Ace from June 2018 to August 2019. Kadokawa released the third and final volume in December 2019.
Yen Press has licensed both the novels and the manga adaptation, describing the story as follows:
When her engagement to the prince is abruptly called off, details from the young noblewoman Aileen's past life surface and help her realize that she's living in the world of one of her favorite otome games—as the heroine's greatest rival! However, her memory has more holes than bad fan fiction... and the only certainty is that her death is all but assured if she doesn't act fast. The hero/main love interest is no help, so why not see what the final boss has to say?
