Yes, she died, but she wasn’t reborn, or even really transported into this other world. However, to say that she was reincarnated isn’t entirely accurate.
#Ascendence of a bookworm series
Myne is the main character of the series who was reincarnated in this bookless world. However, most of them simply play support roles, like Myne’s entire family. Looking at the character list, this series actually had a lot more characters than I was thinking. There’s mana (barely) and some sort of fantasy plant, but that’s it. Oh, and despite this being a fantasy world, there are surprisingly few fantasy elements. It felt more like there was mana just because the series would have been too plain without it - but it still doesn’t add anything. However, she was already on that path, so mana doesn’t really have anything to do with it. Mana was basically introduced into the series as a way to push Myne, the protagonist, along her journey to find books. But even if it is eventually explored, I don’t see why it really matters. It introduces some other potentially interesting concepts, such as mana which manifests as dōjutsu like in Naruto, but so far that hasn’t really been explored. That’s basically the entire premise of the anime. And, since she loves books more than anything else in the world, she decides to make her life’s goal finding (or creating) books to read. This time around we have a female main character who has been reincarnated into a world without books. Sure, they’re all isekai about someone creating things, but Ascendance of a Bookworm doesn’t have any of the action the other two series have. Stone are the ones who also like this series. My best guess is the same people who liked TenSura and Dr. It’s also rated extremely high on MAL for whatever reason. Retaining her memories from her previous life, Myne decides to create and print her books, make her library so that she can read again.Ascendance of a Bookworm (Honzuki no Gekokujou: Shisho ni Naru Tame ni wa Shudan wo Erandeiraremasen / 本好きの下剋上 ~司書になるためには手段を選んでいられません~) is an isekai anime based on a light novel, if you couldn’t tell by the insane length of the Japanese title.
