TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora: Insane Manga About a Girl Obsessed with Netorare
I was casually browsing the internet when I came across a manga with a very curious title. I decided to give it a chance and… the insanity of the story was so great that I ended up reading all 7 chapters released so far.
The manga is called TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora Reiko wa Netoraretai.
As you probably already noticed from the name, yes, this is a netorare manga. But the funniest part is that the protagonist is not a guy… she is a girl. And her name is Netora.
Yes, I am not joking, and you probably already realized that her name comes from “Netorare”.
However, that is not even the strangest part.
What if I told you that Netora was actually a man who was completely obsessed with netorare, died, and reincarnated as a girl… specifically so she could finally put this fetish into practice?
Let’s explain everything.
TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora is an Insane Manga About a Girl Who Wants to Apply Netorare to Everyone
The story of TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora literally begins with a boy crying because he lost his girlfriend to another man.
The most absurd part is that the guy who stole the girl feels incredible just because he managed to make her ex-boyfriend suffer.
This is when we meet the true protagonist of the story: a complete human trash whose hobby is stealing girlfriends from happy couples.
However, the girl he steals is not what excites him the most. What truly makes him happy is watching the expressions of pain, sadness, and despair from the people who were betrayed! (And that includes both men and women.)
There is only one problem.
He is a man.
In reality, his biggest dream was to be on the other side of the situation. He wanted to be the girl who cheats on her boyfriend. Since he was born as a man, he ended up having fun stealing other people’s girlfriends just to watch their suffering.
(And yes, he has even interfered with yuri couples before, stealing one of the girls just to see the other one suffer.)
But then everything works out perfectly for him.
Do you know why?
Because Truck-kun appears on page 7 and grants his greatest wish.
He dies and reincarnates into a parallel version of Japan while keeping all the memories from his previous life.
And there is one very important detail…
Now he is a girl.
Her new name is Netora Reiko.
Finally, she is in the position she always wanted to be in. (From this point forward, I will refer to the character as “she”.)
Now she can finally achieve her dream of creating her own netorare situations.
And she already finds the perfect candidate: a childhood friend she met in this new life.
Netora’s goal is to become a true Netorare Heroine.
Even while she is still in kindergarten, she is already planning what her future career as a relationship destroyer will look like.
She decides to follow the classic route of the “childhood friend who eventually gets betrayed”.
So her first step is simple: find a boy, build a genuine friendship with him, and make him fall deeply in love with her.
The chosen person is Yuuki, a chubby, shy boy with a kind heart.
The first chapter shows exactly how Netora approaches Yuuki and how their friendship begins to grow… while she coldly plans how she will destroy everything in the future.
In her mind, the perfect moment to betray him will be when they are older because that way his suffering will be even greater. For now, she only wants to strengthen their friendship and gather potential netorare candidates. Because of this, she refuses to actually commit netorare while they are still middle school students.
The first chapter ends when they enter middle school.
How Does the Story of TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora Develop?
So far, TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora works like a romantic comedy… but with an extremely dark twist. That is because Netora is manipulating absolutely everyone around her.
When they enter middle school, she starts looking for candidates for her future netorare plan. In other words, people she can use to betray Yuuki when the right moment arrives. (Or maybe she plans to betray these people afterward too. I have to admit that this part is a little confusing.)
The main characters of TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora so far are these (check the image below, from left to right):
Fuyuki — Another childhood friend of Netora and Yuuki. He knows that Yuuki likes Netora, but he also has feelings for her. In Netora’s mind, he could become the perfect “friend who betrays the protagonist.”
Yuuki — Netora’s childhood friend and the main target of her entire plan. She wants to build a strong relationship with him only so she can cheat on him later and enjoy watching his suffering.
Netora — The protagonist. She was a man in her previous life, she was a terrible human being… and she is still a terrible person who wants to apply netorare to everyone.
Shirase — An extremely shy girl from the literature club. She is a lesbian, but nobody knows that… except Netora.
The funniest part is that Shirase has no idea that the protagonist already discovered her secret.
Netora intends to use her for a possible “yuri netorare route.”
Besides them, there is also a younger boy who lives in another city. If I remember correctly, Netora also keeps contact with him because she wants to use him as another piece in her plan in the future.
Basically, the manga revolves around Netora manipulating these four characters.
She is constantly giving hints that she is “available”, but she never says anything directly. Because of this, she makes everyone believe that they actually have a chance with her.
A good example of this is Shirase.
Netora invites the girl to go out, and Shirase spends the entire time thinking that it is a romantic date… while also believing that, for Netora, it probably means nothing.
Until they end up going to the cinema, and during the movie, a yuri moment happens. At the end, Netora reveals to Shirase that she is bisexual and apologizes for never telling her before.
The result?
Shirase is completely shocked by the revelation because she spent a long time feeling sad for having feelings for Netora but doing nothing because she thought Netora was straight.
Now, the poor girl starts believing that she actually has a chance with her. Meanwhile, Netora is completely satisfied because she has just placed another person under her control for her great netorare plan.
And I have to be honest: I found TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora extremely fun. Hahahahaha. Yes, I really enjoyed this manga.
I have already read other netorare stories before, but I think this one might actually be my favorite. However, don’t start reading it expecting tons of adult scenes and endless ecchi content. There isn’t much of that.
The manga is much more focused on Netora manipulating everyone around her and having destructive netorare thoughts. There are only a few ecchi moments. For example, they go to a swimming pool and there are some bikini scenes, but that is basically it (at least for now).
Throughout this entire article, I only used images from the TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora manga, but the series originally started as a web novel before later receiving a light novel adaptation.
Take a look at what the light novel version looks like:
Personally, I much prefer the manga’s artwork.
What about you?
The only really disappointing part is that it takes a very long time for a new chapter of TS Tensei Bishoujo Netora to be released.
At the time this article was written, only 7 chapters had been published.
