''Endo and Kobayashi Live! The Latest on Tsundere Villainess Lieselotte'' (ツンデレ悪役令嬢リーゼロッテと実況の遠藤くんと解説の小林さん / ''Tsundere Akuyaku Reijou Lieselotte to Jikkyou no Endo-kun to Kaisetsu no Kobayashi-san'', literally "The Tsundere Villainess Lieselotte, the Play-By-Play Caster Endo-kun and the Colour Commentator Kobayashi-san", also unofficially known as "Endo and Kobayashi's Live Commentary on the Villainess") is a light novel written by Suzu Enoshima and illustrated by Eihi. It also has a manga adaptation by Rumiwo Sakaki serialized in B's-Log Comic since 2019. The novel and manga are licensed for English release by Creator/JNovelClub.

* MistakenForRomance: Part of Lieselotte's intent of her actions in the first scene is to defy this trope for Fiene. Being the NaiveNewcomer, Fiene might not know that many of her schoolmates were betrothed. So the impression of her trying to romance boys in the Academy would lead to [[SerialHomewrecker disrepute]].

** Fabian is introduced to the Riefenstahl family with Bruno entertaining the idea of an arranged marriage between him and one of Lieselotte's sisters. [[spoiler:Cecilie FallsInLoveAtFirstSight when she first meets Fabian.]]

** In the anime, ''Magokoi'' is published for [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation PZ]], in addition, there's what it looks like a UsefulNotes/Playstation5 in the clubroom.

An anime adaptation by Creator/TezukaProductions started airing on 6 January 2023. It has been licensed by Creator/SentaiFilmworks and will be streamed on its streaming network, [=HiDive=].

** In Episode 5 of the AnimatedAdaption, the rest of the cast gives out a big "Ehh!?" when it turns out the invader of the Riefenstahl estate is [[spoiler:Fiene's mother Elizabeth]].

* HeroicBuild: Probably due to genetics of being in a line of {{Magical Knight}}s, the several Riefenstahls in the series tend to have rather large frames. To begin with, Baldur is noted to be 1.91m in height, and Lieselotte is noted to be "tall for a woman." The only exception is [[spoiler:Fiene, who is petite like her mother]].

* JapaneseSchoolClub: Endo and Kobayashi being in the Broadcasting Club is part of the premise. Since the club handles most public announcements of the school, it has a visible presence at their school, and has more members than the what can be classified as a ClubStub-- Episode 9 of the anime shows at least 9 members. Its is also noted to have a relaxed atmosphere, with the club room stuffed with things that has nothing to do with what they're supposed to be doing.

* ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: When discussing how to help [[spoiler:Fiene]] in Chapter 10.2, Artur mentions what that person really needs is a [[spoiler:[[HeroicBastard marriage certificate between her parents]]]]. And since the clerics handle vital statistics...

** When it comes out that [[spoiler:Fiene is the illegitimate daughter of both the Marschner and Riefenstahl houses and that she and her mother had been on the run from the Marschners, Bruno asks why they didn't seek refuge with the Riefenstahls. Elizabeth points out that the Riefenstahls would have gotten into alot of hot water for protecting a bastard child, and in the worst-case scenario, the two families would have gotten into a bloody war. Fortunately, Arthur and Siegwald are willing to use their connections to alter the records so that Finne is no longer a bastard, allowing the Riefenstahls to officially adopt Finne as rightful heir to the house.]]
* SingleTargetSexuality: The Riefenstahl line tend to be very passionate towards their chosen loves. This includes Lieselotte with Siegwald, [[spoiler:August]] with [[spoiler:Elizabeth]], [[spoiler:Baldur]] with [[spoiler:Fiene (who is also a Riefenstahl)]] and [[spoiler:Cecilie]] with [[spoiler:Fabian]]. In particular, Lieselotte is noted by her father to be extreme even by the family's standards.

* SwitchingPOV: Every chapter of the novel is divided into two sections; the first one is always the ''Magikoi'' world in Siegwald's point of view while the second section is more variable--sometimes it's about the commentators, and sometimes another ''Magikoi'' character gets ADayInTheLimelight.
** InUniverse, ''Magikoi'' only follows the point-of-view of Fiene. After the disappearance of the fourth wall, Kobayashi and Endo find that they can designate people as having recieved "divine favor" and follow their viewpoints, and designate Lieselotte and Baldur so that they can better help along their romantic prospects.

*** Liese does this again when Fiene stays at the Riefenstahl Mansion--she gives Fiene a lot of "hand-me-downs" that are custom-made to Fiene's size. And given the differences in their body builds, it's highly unlikely for Lieselotte to have any hand-me-downs that would fit Fiene.

* HeroicBuild: Probably due to genetics of being in a line of {{Magical Knight}}s, the several Riefenstahls in the series tend to have rather large frames. To begin with, Baldur is noted to be 1.91m in height, and Lieselotte is noted to be "tall for a woman."

* AdaptationContextChange: During Endo's backstory arc, his school's baseball program is described as "a fairly strong team in their prefecture—the key word was 'fairly.' [...] [T]hey weren’t famous across the country by any means." while in the manga it's described as "a powerhouse team that had made it to Koshien numerous times." This has some bearing on his feeling of being "run of the mill" and the mental effects of his CareerEndingInjury.
