Most annoying cliche in the Reincarnation genre?
This usually happens in the villainess subgenre but for me the absolute worst has to be the stupid "tea spill" scene. Where a maid serving tea to the FL will suddenly spill the (hot) tea all over her. And the FL will usually end up saying 'are you alright' just or something along those lines.
Now I know this is meant to showcase how "different" and nice the FL is compared to the OG villainess. But we need to pretending like the OG is in the wrong for getting mad and firing the maid. Sure there's usually a slap included which is probably overkill but again it's fair for her to be mad if she literally got hot tea spilled all over her. The maid had one job, I honestly think it's completely fair to fire her over it there's no need to keep a person who can't even pour tea in a teacup.
I'm not defending all the OG villainesses because some of them are actually straight up evil incarnate. But I'm not gonna act like their anger over these specific "tea scenes" isn't justified.
not exactly reincarnation but when the fl time travels back to the time before she died and falls in love with the ml who hated her/killed her in her past life
