The Queen Who Became the Cause of Tragedy Will Do Everything in Her Power for Her People
A pleasant entertainment for fans of "villainesses" who are actually heroines. Light humor, beautiful animation of magical scenes, and a charismatic main heroine make it a one-evening watch.
The premiere on MBS took place on July 6, 2023 — an isekai anime about a high school girl who reincarnates as an eight-year-old princess, Pride, the final boss of an otome game. Realizing that she canonically brings destruction to everything around her, the heroine decides to use her cheat magic and authority to save her people instead of causing their demise. The tone is light, comedic, with elements of political fantasy: there are many "flags" from games (evil noble families, prince-fiancés), but reinterpreted from a position of power. The format of a single course (13 episodes) concludes without a cliffhanger. For fans of "My Boss's Daughter" and "Elder Sister of My Younger Twin Brother," looking for heroines who break genre clichés.
Not announced — the light novel continues, but 13 episodes cover the first 3 volumes with a completed arc.
A genre of Japanese romantic games for girls, where the player plays as a heroine who wins the hearts of boys — here it is a metanarrative that the main heroine tries to break.
The main love interest, a neighboring prince who was supposed to die at the hands of Pride in the original game, but here becomes her ally.
A classic isekai mechanic — the consciousness of a 17-year-old high school girl in the body of a child, creating comedic situations with those around her.
Yes, it is enough to know the basic tropes of the "villainess-aristocrat," which are explained in the first episode through the heroine's inner monologues.
