Well, this one seems really interesting. You can really tell when an author spends a bit of time doing background work and fleshing out the world, instead of just going "villainess manga backstory #3, reincarnated in an otome game, OK great that's good enough let's draw some handsome guys."

Maybe they'll do a chapter where he gets some time off work and gains shounen protagonist levels of optimism from curing his sleep deprivation.
...And then turns right back into an asshole after going back to work, because the status quo must be preserved
@Meridis
You're extrapolating a power struggle between the church and the nation that was never mentioned in the story, as far as I can recall. If there was one, the story should have mentioned it, which is exactly what I mean by "badly justified".
Also, you're forgetting the bit where the king...
@L0tuscrime
Yes. That's exactly why.
Even in this story, pretty much every bad thing that's happened has been because somebody in power has been selfish and/or evil. I'd call it a theme if it was explored more, but as it stands it's more of a cliche played straight.
@Warpbeast
Not far fetched, but weakly justified in my opinion. When an important and traumatic event happens to the main character, I'd like if there were more reasons for it to happen than one character being stupid and evil. Otherwise it tends to come off as just pointlessly tragic, that is...
Ehh... I'm not sure how I feel about everything being caused by shitty royalty. Like, the bit where the king had the main character's original incarnation killed just to save face (?) was some pretty pointless villain shit.
So, the bad dude calls her (probably original) incarnation "Jun", which is a Japanese name, as opposed to the western names all her other incarnations had.
So, surprise isekai?
Ol' Captain Blue here seems to be inspired by Judge Holden from Cormac McCarthy's novel Blood Meridian. A large, pale, hairless man who is also a depraved murderer and pedophile, leading a group killing Native Americans... yep.
We in the Reiko faction celebrate our victory over the Chiaki and Gyaru factions this day. Hooray!
One day, we may yet surpass the raw power of the Matsuko faction.
Guys... just chill out. Read the name of the manga.
There's no way the main characters would actually separate, so just enjoy the drama while it lasts.
