Funny / My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!

As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.

Novels 1- 2 / Anime Season 1

• The first season opening theme song for the anime adaptation is a mix of pop and opera, with a touch of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 in C minor, Op. 67: I. Allegro con brio thrown in. It's as zany a mix as you'd expect.
  • The second season opening repeats this gag with Beethoven's "Ode to Joy".
• Every time Catarina plans out her ideas for how to avoid her "doom", it's portrayed as a council of Catarinas with different personalities discussing what to do, through which we get to see the silliness that goes on in her brain to result in her bizarre ideas. The manga adaptation and On the Verge of Doom! take things a step further by portraying it like a live TV broadcast, including each meeting concluding with a sponsorship and signing off phrase.
• Deciding to be a Cool Big Sis to Keith in order to avoid her doom, Catarina takes him out to climb a tree. She slips and falls on him, and freaks out thinking that she killed him. Her reaction alone is funny enough, but her comment "I can't believe I killed you with my butt!" and Keith's face as she does is what really sells it.
• When Keith locks himself in his room after injuring Catarina, he takes the spare key with him so nobody can get in. Catarina's response is to grab an axe and chop down the door. It earns her a scolding from her mother.
• After Catarina demonstrates Geordo's fear of snakes to Alan, Geordo comes by and makes it known that he knows what Catarina did. Catarina begins freaking out because she thinks she could be arrested, but Geordo instead decides to tell Catarina's mother about the snake and her tree-climbing matches with Alan. Catarina runs off to try and stop Geordo, while Alan collapses into hysterics. Catarina doesn't get arrested, but does get scolded by her mother again.
• When Catarina and Keith attend a fancy party thrown by Mary's sisters, naturally Catarina contemplates sneaking some of the sweets home...only for Keith to come up and say "You aren't planning on sneaking some of the sweets home, are you?", making her briefly panic that he's got psychic powers. Keith then reminds her that their mother banned her from having sweets for several days after she tried to invoke the Three-Second Rule on a cookie that had fallen onto the floor.
• A scene happening during Catarina's fifteenth birthday puts her coming interactions with Geordo and Keith in a nutshell. After dancing with Catarina, Geordo kisses her neck and leaves. Keith promptly shows up to wipe the spot Geordo kissed with a handkerchief, claiming an insect had landed there. Alan then shows up to dance with Catarina and notices a hickey that has developed on her neck. Catarina tells him that an insect bit her, having very obviously taken Keith's words literally.
  • Speaking of her dance with Alan, when the latter comments that she's well-dressed, Catarina explains how her maids took extra care to choose her clothes and casually mentions that they went as far as to select her underwear, which causes a very flustered Alan to comment that a lady shouldn't talk about her undergarments in public.
  • In an unanimated side story of the same event, Geordo recalls that Catarina had refused gifts such as dresses and jewelry, so everyone gets her things like seeds and books. However, they find out that not only had Nicol gotten her a necklace ^note (the necklace was based on the one a protagonist from Catarina's favorite novel wore, which was why she was willing to accept it), but she was also wearing it under her clothing. Cue outrage from the suitors, obliviousness from Catarina, and Sophia rejoicing over her victory.
• At one point, Geordo decides to lure Catarina to his room with the promise of sweets. Catarina arrives as promised, thanking him for inviting her... then Keith appears, thanking Geordo for "inviting" him as well. When Geordo is unsurprisingly suspicious, Keith says he had the maids warn him about anything going on with Catarina that might need his attention.
• After returning home from a trip to Maria's hometown, Catarina is greeted by her mother, who asks her questions about the field she's maintaining at magic school. Her entrance at the front gate and Catarina's reaction make it delightfully hilarious. Catarina ends up getting scolded by her mother again. For three hours.
• During a trip to the lake with Keith and Geordo, Catarina takes off her shoes and pulls up the skirt of her dress to her knees in order to be able to wade around. Keith's reaction is to cover his and Geordo's eyes... but at the same time sneak a peek himself through his fingers.
  • Also, Catarina believing that Keith willingly joined them when he was supposed to be at a social gathering because he felt lonely not going with her. Geordo, meanwhile, is not pleased with having Keith as a third wheel.
• The anime's version of the lake trip starts playing out like the trip in the manga, where Catarina and Geordo's carriage gets stopped by Keith and Catarina invites him to come along. And from there we get variance which adds to the hilarity:
  • It turns out Catarina invited everyone else in their circle of friends along, which greatly disappoints Geordo.
  • Everyone then begins arguing over who gets to ride with Catarina in one of the rowboats. Geordo claims dibs due to being Catarina's fiancé, to which Keith responds "Yes, for now." Meanwhile, Catarina and Alan have no idea what they're arguing about, and instead challenge each other to a rowing contest.
  • To Geordo's visible disappointment, after drawing lots, he ends up in a boat with Keith.
  • Nicol compliments Alan's rowing ability, to which Alan replies that he can't let Catarina beat him. Not a moment later, Catarina and Mary blaze by Alan and leave him and Nicol in the dust. Mary then praises Catarina's rowing ability and throws herself at Catarina for a hug...which ends up causing both of them to fall into the water.
  • Sophia comments that Nicol is having a good time. Catarina can't see it, so Sophia tells everyone to look closely and they'll see a slight smile from Nicol. Everyone does, and they all think to themselves they have no idea what Sophia is talking about.
  • Finally, a goose steals a sweet Catarina had in her hands. Catarina's response is to immediately chase after the goose in an attempt to get it back.
• During the summer break, the anime shows every one of the Catarina council besides Studious Catarina lazing around enjoying the break, including Chairman Catarina. Studious Catarina initially tries getting the others to get themselves together so they can plan for avoiding their doom, but then the "Devilish Count" from the book Catarina is going to get comes and seduces her into joining the others in their relaxing.
• In S1E07 of the anime, after Geordo and Keith use their magic to help circumvent some traps, Catarina begins feeling useless. Then she looks ahead, shouts at the others to look out...and uses her Earth Bump to fill in a tiny pothole in the ground. In order to preserve her ego, the boys and Sophia all gently praise her for this "heroic" act.
  • When Catarina gets separated from her friends, her first instinct is, of course, to go looking for food. She finds a room with mushrooms growing all over and picks up a nearby rock to use as a knife. When the rest of the group locates her, they get a good look at the rock and realize that it's the magic-infused stone they were sent to retrieve. When she explains that she'd been using it as a knife, Alan naturally starts cracking up.
    • Just to cap things off, Catarina declares that they're going to make a stew out of the mushrooms she gathered; the more level-headed boys and Maria point out that they look highly toxic (they're purple with neon pink spots), leading Mary (and later Sophia) to declare that she'd gladly eat whatever Catarina told her even if it killed her.
• S1E08 of the anime has Catarina, Sophia, Geordo, Keith, Nicol, and Alan getting trapped in a book that feeds on human desires. Mary and Maria, who were not present when everyone got trapped, have to read the book in the hopes that one of them has their desire fulfilled so they can escape. This results in six different scenes, none of which Mary would want to happen in the real world:
  • Geordo's desire has him and Catarina in their wedding suite after their marriage ceremony, ready to get it on with Catarina. Catarina, naturally, is clueless about what he means, but it's pretty clear that Geordo is eagerly going to invoke his Marital Rape License (Played for Laughs, of course). As Catarina backs off, she falls and trips, to which Geordo then tosses a full wine glass he'd been holding up in the air, spins around to catch Catarina, and then catches the wine glass without a single drop of wine being spilled. He takes a sip of wine and goes to kiss Catarina... at which point Mary slams the book shut in a fit of jealousy.
  • Keith's desire has him alone with his sister in her room, with Catarina aware of Keith's sex appeal. Keith takes a sweet from her plate of sweets, and threatens to eat it. The casanova-like look on his face as he manipulates her is just hilarious. When Catarina protests, Keith says she'll get it only if she lets him hand-feed it to her. Catarina agrees... and Mary slams the book shut, declaring that she won't let anyone hand-feed Catarina.
  • Sophia's desire is her and Catarina in the Ascart Library, looking at various books. Catarina casually mentions wanting to live at Ascart Manor, at which point Sophia traps Catarina against a bookshelf and begins confessing her love. Catarina says she loves Sophia, and Sophia desperately screams "How much?! Which do you love more, me or sweets?!" Before Catarina can say anything, her stomach growls... and Mary again shuts the book in a fit of jealousy.
  • Nicol's desire has him as the Devilish Count dancing with Catarina at a masquerade ball. A pack of rabid fangirls and fanboys breaks in, but Nicol incapacitates them with his devilishly charming smile. He then takes Catarina into his arms and leaps off the balcony with her into a waiting gondola. When Catarina asks how to get back to the library, he takes Catarina into his arms again and leaps from the gondola to a rooftop, and then leaps across several rooftops before leaping into the light of the moon, saying he wants to keep Catarina trapped in his arms forever. He goes to kiss Catarina... and Mary slams the book shut, ready to burn it. Poor Maria has to calm Mary down to prevent her from doing anything rash.
  • Alan's desire starts with him playing the piano for Catarina. And that's as far as it goes, as Mary finally had enough and shuts the book before it can go any further, all while sporting a pair of Dull Eyes of Unhappiness.
  • Finally, Catarina's desire has her coming across a house made of sweets and gorging herself on it nonstop. She ends up devouring the entire house and sucking up anything edible nearby, which turns out to be enough to break the book's hold on all of them. Mary and Maria however conclude that the book released everyone not because Catarina's desire was fulfilled, but because Catarina's desire was too strong for the book to handle.
  • After everyone is released from the book, Mary and Maria explain to everyone exactly what happened. Catarina then says she had a bunch of weird experiences while trapped (None of which she understood the context of), which causes Geordo, Keith, Sophia, and even Nicol to be visibly uncomfortable due to remembering exactly what they all did. The four of them hastily excuse themselves and leave in embarrassment.
  • Alan, who had his fantasy cut short as mentioned above, has no idea why everyone was embarrassed because all he remembers is playing piano thanks to Mary cutting his desire short. But later on, Alan joins Catarina for a climb up a tree at sunset. Mary spots them and freaks out, running to cut short their time together.
• S1E09 of the anime has Anne discussing how Catarina is completely unaware of how everyone in her harem is in love with her. Some of the scenes are incredibly amusing:
  • Catarina casually approaches Keith and tells him how she overheard how attractive he is and that he should have a girlfriend in no time. Keith proceeds to recoil in horror and then mourn to himself about his attractiveness not mattering because if Catarina doesn't notice it, then it does no good. We also get the priceless image of Millidiana and Keith holding up signs and proclaiming that Catarina is not suited to be a princess, like they were in a protest.
  • Alan is with Catarina in her garden asking why he has to play music for "poorly-raised potatoes." Catarina responds that she heard that music was good for vegetables and begs him to play. After seeing Catarina beg, Alan rolls with it.
  • Mary talks to Catarina about how she's not suited to be a princess, to which Catarina responds she's even more unsuited. This prompts Mary to enthusiastically suggest breaking off their engagements so they can flee to another country to elope, at which point Mary pulls out a map and spells out exactly how they'll do it. Of course, Catarina thinks it's a joke.
• Next, the episode adapts a bonus manga story with the main girls all dressed up for a sleepover, answering a question about what they would do for and with a lover. Catarina and Maria start off, giving mundane answers. Then we get to Mary.
  • Mary first says she'd want to share a meal with her lover... and then throws the other girls for a loop by saying she'd want to bathe with them, brush and braid each other's hair, and try on each other's dresses. Catarina interrupts by asking how she could do that with a man, to which Mary replies that nothing was specified about gender. After Catarina says that the assumption was the lover would be a man, Mary hugs Catarina and says being with her is what she wants, giving a harsh glance at the other girls.
  • Sophia says her response would be mundane, and it starts off that way, with either sharing a meal or cleaning their rooms. Then it gets into fighting for the future of the kingdom, dispelling the darkness in his heart, and breaking the curse placed on her lover. Mary then begins to ask Catarina a question, but before she can finish asking, Catarina confirms that it's something straight from a romance novel.
• The episode then does a straight adaptation of the bonus reincarnation manga that was later adapted as S2E07 as part of the sleepover... except here, when it's Sophia's turn, she gets so engrossed in her fantasy that nobody else gets the chance to say their answers.
• Finally, it concludes with an adaptation of a bonus manga story where Geordo receives an invitation from Catarina. He's at first excited, believing it's a Love Confession... then he reconsiders and thinks Catarina may be out to prank him.
  • Then he decides to show up, prepared with a special set of gardening scissors just for Catarina... only to see that everyone else was invited too.
  • And why did Catarina invite them? To give them gardening uniforms to wear so they can help with the harvest at her vegetable field. Geordo's look screams "I knew this would happen".
• A bunch of girls publicly confront Catarina about bullying everyone, including Maria. They even provide copious amounts of evidence and witnesses. Catarina starts freaking out because this is exactly like the event in the game where Catarina is exiled/murdered... before realizing that she hasn't actually bullied anyone in this timeline, leaving her standing in a confused daze while the girls demand she quit playing dumb.
  • All her love interests coming to her defense. That in and of itself is heartwarming, but the hilarious part is how it plays out: their main reasoning is that Catarina is too dumb to orchestrate the complex campaign of harassment and bullying she's been accused of. And everyone agrees. The fact that Catarina isn't the type of person to bully others to begin with is a secondary point that isn't even brought up by the main cast, but by the rest of their classmates. It seems that Catarina's denseness really starts to frustrate her harem.
  • Also remember that Catarina still thinks she's in the villain role, so she's utterly astonished that her friends are all on her side, spending even that part of the altercation confused and barely registering the backhanded compliments being used. The whole thing ends with her losing her train of thought and loudly declaring that she's hungry after the others have resolved the situation.
• At the graduation party, while most of the girls give Nicol flower bouquets, Catarina gives him a bouquet of vegetables from her garden, explaining that she felt it would be better to give Nicol something he could eat as opposed to flowers he'd just eventually throw away. Alan bursts out laughing, while Geordo snickers and Keith gives a resigned but understanding smile. Nicol for his part accepts the gift and promises to eat it with gratitude.

Novels 3- 5 / Anime Season 2

• In S2E01, the council of Catarinas recap the previous season... while lounging around in a traditional Japanese living room. Happy is rolling around on a big cushion, Chairman is drinking green tea, Studious is wearing a Hawaiian shirt, shorts, shades and headphones while sitting at a computer and reading a book, with a fruit drink close at hand, Fearless is playing a Game Boy, and Spineless is peeling and eating an orange.
• During the festival arc, Mary takes full advantage of Catarina's lack of anything regarding a filter and easily has her divulge her eating habits with Keith in front of Keith. Keith can only look on in horror as Catarina happily talks about how she'd get around eating too much by personally feeding Keith half of her food as a child, and still does it with him at age sixteen. The amused-envious look on Mary's face sells the whole thing.
  Mary: Master Keith... I did ask you not to take advantage of the fact that you two are family, did I not?
  • Keith immediately panics, telling Mary she's got no right to judge because of how she can barely keep her hands off Catarina.
    Keith: Besides, you're always hugging her and touching her and stuff yourself!
    Mary: Oh, but that's completely normal for two girls!
  • It gets better. Mary and Keith start trading thinly veiled barbs regarding each other's attraction to Catarina in front of Catarina, and Catarina, being Catarina, comes to 'realize' that clearly Mary and Keith desire each other. She can only lament at the fact that Mary is betrothed to Alan, making her unavailable.
    Catarina: My woman's intuition is so on point!
  • When Catarina begs the two to give up on their "forbidden love" and compares them to Romeo and Juliet, Keith and Mary share dual expressions of Dull Eyes of Unhappiness as they state in unison that she's made a huge mistake. Keith internally asks who "Romeo" is and worries Catarina obliviously gained yet another potential suitor for him to worry about.
• A number of scenes from the festival arc are particularly funny in the anime:
  • Geordo is about to feed a macaron to an open-mouthed Catarina when Keith pops up in front of her out of nowhere to stop him.
  • While skipping through the school festival, Catarina suddenly realizes her father might bring her mother along, even though she'd said she'd be too embarrassed to attend, and starts sneaking around in case she shows up.
  • Catarina momentarily shuts down when she reaches the food stalls, because she'd been expecting Japanese food, not European. A handful of random students come across her and immediately realize that she needs to eat.
  • Catarina meets Nicol and Sophia at the theater, and asks why there're so many people lying on the floor. Sophia explains she wanted more people to come to the festival, so she asked Nicol to stand at the entrance... resulting in a lot of blissed-out people.
  • Sophia explains that Nicol can't act because he can't control his facial expressions, with four pictures of Nicol with different facial expressions flashing up on the screen. They all look identical.
• Catarina ends up substituting for the student council's play in place of one of the actors who sprained their leg. Not being able to memorize the script, she sticks a cue card with her lines on her prop fan. However, it ends up falling off when they reach the stage, so Mary improvises to have the stepmother and stepsister practice their waltzing to retrieve it. Ultimately, the cue card slips out of reach, which forces Catarina to improvise the stepsister's lines... from her memory of Fortune Lover's Catarina's lines.
  • In the anime, Sophia, inspired by the improvised lines, rewrites the play to introduce a Phantom Thief for a side plot. Everyone nominates themselves for the role, but Sophia cleverly fields them off so that Nicol can take the role, as she intended.
  • Subsequently, the introduced side plot ends up getting more heated than expected with Geordo and Nicol having a swordfight over Catarina, and Keith joining in too, to where the play can't continue. A vexed Mary can see the fight is over Catarina and wants to join in too.
• S2E04 has a Gilligan Cut Brick Joke hybrid: Catarina comments on how she won't be getting any sleep, the title sequence plays, and the next shot features Catarina sound asleep.
• After Catarina's kidnapping, everyone assumes she was seduced, including a panicky Geordo. She assures them nothing happened, and cue sighs of relief...
  • ... but Geordo decides he can't run any more risks, and gives Catarina the first kiss. Cue every other love interest, especially Keith and Mary, losing their shit.
• Jeffrey unveiling his wall of paintings of his younger brothers. As if this wasn't enough, the wall of paintings becomes part of Jeffrey's scene in the anime opening after its existence is revealed.
• Geordo learns Catarina thought the first kiss was a dream, so he kisses her again to make it clear it was real. Cue the others bearing down on them to separate them by any means necessary, up to and including magic, with Maria pleading with them to at least keep the injuries mild enough she can use her magic to heal them. Catarina has to pinch herself to make sure this isn't a dream too.
• S2E07 adapts a bonus manga story asking the main cast what they would want to be reincarnated as if they had the choice, but framed in a way not unlike The Book of Desires in S1E08. Some of the answers are standard. Others, not so much:
  • Catarina says she'd want to reincarnate as something other than an otome game villainess with only bad endings. Anne in the background has no idea what Catarina is talking about.
    • In the anime she also wanted to have a new life not too different to Umaru's, with modern Japanese snacks and Sorcier's novels spread on the bed.
  • Keith would want to reincarnate as a girl, because due to being around his sister so much, he has no idea how normal girls think.
    • The anime took this concept a step further by genderbending everyone!
  • Sophia again gives an answer that's straight from the plot of a romance novel.
  • Mary would be reborn as a man, with more power than Prince Geordo, and then begins saying she would find and kidnap Catarina before cutting her answer short.
  • Maria's wish is to become more muscular so that she could make more sweets. It is animated as a hunk with Maria's head and clothing.
  • Finally, Anne says she would want to reincarnate as someone close to Catarina, seemingly unaware that Geordo, Mary, and Keith are looking at her, worried they just got another rival.
• Geordo thinks he can finally make moves on Catarina while Keith is kidnapped... and then Sora comes to interfere. What's more, Sora is working on Mary's request.

Anthologies and omakes

• The first story in the anthology has Catarina talking with Keith and Geordo about how her earth magic is useful for plowing fields. Keith and Geordo are at first amused...until Alan decides to demonstrate how his water magic would help as well. This sparks everyone else demonstrating how their magic would help in an attempt to win her affection. Catarina, who is still focused on her potential doom, completely misses the context of why they're showing this and instead gushes over how efficient a farm with all of them would be. After initially being disappointed that their attempts to win her affection were in vain, everyone else then decides to just roll with it.
• An omake shows the various people in Catarina's life divided into two factions: the Prince Geordo faction aka "Catarina shall become my Queen", consisting of Prince Geordo and a very reluctant Anne, and the "Catarina cannot possibly fulfill the responsibilities of a Queen" faction, consisting of everybody else (the faction's first group consists of Duchess Claes and Keith who are actively trying to break off the engagement and will not hesitate to use force; the second group consists of Mary and an exasperated Alan; the third group has the Ascart siblings who intimately know Catarina's interests and secretly want her for themselves; and the last group consists of Rafael and Maria, who look like they are the least expected to separate Geordo from Catarina at first glance, but secretly get involved in the operation). It also points out Anne as being the dark horse of the group.
  • And true to her form, Mary's royally pissed at the sight of ominous Geordo.
• Chapter 8 of the Girls Patch Yuri Anthology has Catarina inviting Mary, Sophia, and Maria to a friendly gathering at Claes Manor. It starts out normally, and then things go off the rails when Catarina somehow ends up drunk.
  • In her first act of drunkenness, Catarina shoves her face into Mary's chest. Mary does not mind this. At all.
  • Sophia pulls Catarina away from Mary and begins helping her lie down on a sofa. Sophia then accidentally trips and ends up in Catarina's arms, who suggests they sleep together. Sophia does not mind this either.
  • Catarina begins feeling hot and begins undressing herself. When the other girls object, Catarina suggests they help her undress. This causes the girls to go into a panic, as they fear Geordo or Keith could easily take advantage of her.
  • Anne then bursts in with an apprentice cook, who explains that he accidentally used fruit preserved in alcohol rather than fruit preserved in syrup for the sweets they were eating. Then they notice in their panic that Catarina has disappeared.
  • It turns out Catarina had wandered outside and is stumbling around the garden. She then begins climbing a tree in her drunken haze. Maria, determined to help Catarina, climbs up after her.
  • Finally, Maria catches up with Catarina and sits with her on a branch. Catarina suggests they climb down, but Maria asks Catarina to do the same things to her she did to Mary and Sophia before they do so. Unfortunately for Maria, Catarina's no longer drunk and has no clue what Maria's talking about, much to Maria's embarrassment and disappointment.
• Chapter 1 of the second comic anthology has the group playing The King's Game at Catarina's suggestion, figuring it would be a good way to pair up everyone. Suffice it to say, things don't go according to plan.
  • Sophia is the king for the first round and asks number five to refill her tea. Geordo ends up being it, to which Sophia is extremely apologetic. Keith then comments that the game seems to be very stressful.
  • Alan's turn as king is next, and he asks number two to say something nice about him. It ends up being Catarina, who heaps praise on Alan. Alan is flustered, while Geordo, Keith, and Mary figure out the true purpose of the game.
  • Keith is king for the next round, and he asks number one to hold his hand for 30 seconds. It ends up being Mary, who at first looks dead inside, but then says she aspires for Keith to call her "Big Sister" one day as well. Keith responds that Catarina is the only "Big Sister" for him.
  • Mary then becomes king, and she asks number four to tell her that they love her. Number four ends up being Alan. Mary looks dead inside at Alan telling her so.
  • When it's Geordo's turn to be king, he tries to read faces to see who has what number. Keith and Mary, realizing what Geordo is doing, quickly distract Catarina so that Geordo can't do so. His plan in shambles, he then asks number six to eat some sweets with him. Keith happily accepts, thrilled his plan worked.
• Chapter 9 of the second comic anthology has a story featuring crossdressing. Hilarity Ensues:
  • Maria asks Catarina out to a crossdressing event at a local café which is offering special sweets. Catarina accepts and Maria rejoices in her triumph.....only for Mary and Sophia to appear out of nowhere and ask to come along.
  • The girls argue over who's going to be Catarina's partner, which would mean dressing up like a man. Catarina, thinking that it's because they want to crossdress rather than wanting to be her partner for the event, has all three of them dress like a man.
  • When the girls go to present themselves to Catarina, several other female students begin swooning over the girls and wonder who the "beautiful boys" are, as no one recalls having seen them before.
  • Geordo and Keith, not recognizing the crossdressed girls, confront Catarina over the fact that she's being proposed to by other men in public. All of the girls look at each other in bewilderment, then have a nice laugh over the fact that Geordo and Keith didn't realize that the "men" proposing to her are in fact Mary, Sophia, and Maria.
  • Catarina then suggests that Geordo and Keith crossdress so that everyone can go to the event in pairs. An exasperated Mary explains they crossdressed not because they wanted to, but because they wanted to go to the event with Catarina. So Catarina figures out a solution: she crossdresses as a man, the boys all crossdress as women, and the girls go in their normal clothing.
  • And just to cap it off, when they get to the café, Catarina declares to the hostess regarding the group with her "They are all my girlfriends!" The hostess's reaction is priceless.
• Chapter 14 of the second comic anthology has Geordo faking sickness so he can spend time alone with Catarina. At first he revels in his triumph, as Catarina is attending to him without interference from anyone. And then things go off the rails.
  • Catarina made a "special porridge" which has a mix of her vegetables and fruits Maria grew, saying it'll help him feel better. Dreading what's to come, he forces himself to eat a spoonful. The taste causes him to pass out.
  • Shortly after, Geordo feels himself being cradled. He begins thinking about how gentle Catarina is with him, but it turns out that it's Alan, who's concerned for his brother.
  • His plan mostly blown, Catarina insists on checking him for a fever. She begins to initiate a Headbutt Thermometer, only for Keith to interrupt and open the window, causing Catarina and Geordo to actually headbutt each other.
  • Catarina once again misinterprets the arguing between Geordo and Keith, making her wonder if there was a yaoi route in Fortune Lover.
  • And throughout the whole story, Geordo makes some very un-Geordo faces, just to add to the hilarity.
