Description

Peter wanted to go to The School of Righteousness and Honour, to learn how to become a hero.Unfortunately for him, that cost too much money. So his parents sent him to the less expensive, Doom Valley Prep School, where the children of dark wizards, warlords, master assassins, dictators and worse learn how to follow in their parents footsteps.

With no other choice, he must learn how to survive when shadows can and will eat you, the teachers are firm believers in survival of the fittest, detention often ends in death, and the students see nothing wrong with mind control, beatings and even murder to get a leg up on the competition.Oh yes, he was also changed into a girl and nearly mind controlled on his first day.

Welcome to Doom Valley Prep School and good luck, you're going to need it.It has a TV Tropes pageHERE.

    I miss this story it was really quite good then it just kinda disappeared The author left it on a cliffhanger which is unfortunate because I was really enjoying it up to that point I'm giving it full starts because it's a really good story and I want the outfit to come back to it someday and I think people will enjoy the read. The characters are so alive and fun, And the world feels very liked in the author clearly enjoyed their work greatly that's a feeling I got. I think anyone reading this review should read the story I quite think they'll enjoy it.

    Concept slightly makes me think of the original Scholomance.
    Luckily, Peter / Petra's found some good friends, unfortunately for her enemies! Everything good that happens to her is balanced with something unfortunate, keeping her from being seen as a threat, I guess.
    Magical hijinks spread lightly on a main course of sweet ups and downs but mainly advancing upwards! Two steps forward, and one step back over and over again!

    This story runs true to its synopsis and is a whole lot of fun! Peter's unwilling transformation into a girl plays a major role as every obstacle pushes him towards being a secret boy in the girls' dormitory at this Evil School of Witchcraft and Evilry. Okay, that's not that name of the school, but you get the point!
    The story is comedic at heart, and while an evil Hogwarts is a delicious idea for a story in itself, reading about the teachers taking bets on poor naive horny teenager Peter/Petra's ultimate outcome as he DEFINITELY DOESN'T over-enjoy the closeness of his confusing female relationships with his classmates is the unexpected story you, reader, have just stumbled upon.
    A teenager getting female attention for the first time in his life while simultaneously being trapped as a girl... and then getting male attention. Oh boy, I honestly don't know where this story is heading, but I fully intend on keeping up with this one. The magic school is just the cherry on top of all the fun wickedness that fills these pages!
    Style: Harry Potter parody--magi-tech gender bender. That's both the style and the story. It's a vibe.
    Story: Read above, but also, for some reason I keep expecting the story to divert into an erotica, but that's only because teenagers be teenaging. The story has taken less "let me check out this new body" moments than I expected. I don't think that's good or bad, it really don't know how its managed to feel both appropriate and realistic to the characters at the same time, but here we are! Overall, the word of the day for the story is: Fun!
    Grammar: The typos my eagle eyes spotted weren't the distracting type, and I'm sure will be short-lived based on the author's responsiveness to comments.
    Character: I like where things are going, and am definitely looking forward to reading more chapters as they are published. Petra is developing into a modestly competent young woman!
    You know what you are going to get, now go read!

    This is one of the funniest webnovels I have read if not THE funniest. I couldn't stop laughing my ass off every other chapter. AND there is a canonical reason that Petras life is a comedy that we are still finding.
    10/10
    Highly recommend to anyone wanting a good laugh.

    This is a good story where the author knows exactly what they are doing. Gender Benders are hard to pull off well but the author has been handling it well so far. I really like the MC and find watching them struggle just as fun for me as it is for the Instructors who have a betting poll on when Petra going to die.

    Overall Score: 5 Stars
    This story falls squarely into the realm of an anime high school drama/slice of life and more than anything reminds me of Iruma-kun from Demon School and Rosario + Vampire. It's the story of Peter's education and probable funeral as he attempts to navigate a situation that is completely alien to him.
    Style Score: 5 Stars
    Style is where this story really shines. It deserves six stars. It’s funny, and the world feels lived in - something that you can't usually say about something like this.
    Grammar Score: 5 stars
    The writing is good, and I found nothing to correct.
    Story Score: 4.5 Stars
    The story is very over the top, in an evil My Hero Academia sense. The only thing that affects my suspension of disbelief is wondering how many of these students will still be around in a month or two at the rate the first few chapters are going. It's a minor quibble.
    Character Score: 4.5 Stars
    I love the characters. The main character is stand out of course, but the even the teachers, who have had remarkably few lines except for the aside at the end of chapter three feel like whole people with back stories just waiting to be told.

    This sounded like fun so I tried it. The story was much better than I expected. It bounced along from one amusing situation to another... and then there were no more chapters to read. I want to more of this right now, so please continue the story, as soon as you can! I want more!

    This was really pretty entertaining. Each chapter and little mini arc did something really interesting. Honestly, the biggest problem was simply that everything revolved around Petra too much. The side characters were just so strong that I would've loved to see their stories told from their perspectives too. Not that Petra wasn't entertaining but the girl needs a break. Heh.
    Really hope this isn't a permanent story hiatus and you eventually come back to this story. It was a good time.

    The MC is sympathetic and has a compelling character voice, whether boy version or girl version! And there's a fun setup with a nemesis right off the bat. The world is sort of Hogwarts meets Evil Genuis meets He Who Fights With Monsters. I'm only a few chapters in, but there's a lot to like!

    ★★★★ 4.0
    First of all: If you like series like Harry potter, HIVE or similar, you will probably enjoy this story.  The premise is simple: Guy goes to supervillain school because it's cheaper than going to hero school, gets turned into a girl and almost into a mindless slave on his first day, and now needs to learn to survive in a school that wants him/her about as dead as the world at large. Woe is him/her.
    The school is highly magical and the teachers are supervillains. The only good people around the school seem to have been demoted to shadow monster stool. This makes for a very amusing setting.
    let's go with the score breakdown, then:
    Style: I dropped two stars because i consider the style anc character voice don't serve the intended comedy, being too dry  but not detached enough to attain the atmosphere of constant hilarity where you are way more prone to laugh out loud at the absurdity of the world. Presentation is a big part of comedy, and while the simple and rather dry character voice serves to stablish Peter/Petra as a believable 14 years old and give a YA feeling to narration, i feel the style fails to deliver  what it promises with the comedy tag. Don't misunderstand me, though: situations are amusing, and, ultimately, humour is subjective, so i may be being a bit too harsh in this point.
    Grammar: A few mistakes, a few missing words, nothing too disruptive. In other words, there are typos and a few odd word choices that have mroe to do with authorial choice rather than mistakes.
    Story: I have read until they get to the girls dorm and Ivy is introduced, nothing unusual so far, but the teachers scheming and betting when the Mc wwill fucking die is promising.
    Characters: the strong suit of this story: most characters are believable, and many being bullies or maniacs fits a villain school. So far, Petra isn't horny on main and that's a big plus. The cast is fun to read and ssee them interact,  the teachers are amusing, and, voerall, for the silly world and argument of
