Synopsis Surrounded by the hate-filled gazes of her people, the selfish princess of the fallen Tearmoon Empire, Mia, takes one last look at the bleeding sun before the guillotine blade falls... Only to wake back up as a twelve-year-old! With time rewound and a second chance at life dropped into her lap, she sets out to right the countless wrongs that plague the ailing Empire. Corrupt governance? Check. Border troubles? Check. Natural calamities and economic strife? Check. My, seems like a lot of work. Hard work and Mia don't mix, so she seeks out the aid of others, starting with her loyal maid, Anne, and the brilliant minister, Ludwig. Together, they strive day and night to restore the Empire. Little by little, their tireless efforts begin to change the course of history, pushing the whole of the continent toward a new future. And why did the selfish princess have a change of heart, you ask? Simple—she didn't. She's just terrified of the guillotine. They hurt like hell, and Mia hates pain more than work.

| So it's one of those "Making Kingdom Great Again". We have quite a lot of those recently. They usually were good, so gonna check this one as well. |
 |
| So it's an other world SoL that sort of became an isekai, but it isn't really an isekai...Interesting lol |
| One of my favorite novels "Tearmoon Empire" is finally getting an anime!! I had a feeling it was going to happen and now it's official! Each volume is really long with dozens of chapters so I'm wondering how they are going to fit the story arcs in anime form? Nevertheless, I'm absolutely hyped for this anime adaptation! :D I adored that PV. I also liked their VA choice for Mia and it's going to be the voice of Nagatoro-san, hah! |

| Tearmoon Empire getting an adaptation. Not surprised, since this is one of the fantasy LN that the LN community has been hyping for quite some time. Well, the LN community I am in has been hyping this news for the past 4 hours~ Looks like Torture Princess is now the only popular fantasy LN that has not gotten an adaptation~ |

It's uncommon for novels/LNs to be adapted into a 2-cour anime, but adapting this into 2-cour (or split-cour) would be a wise decision so the anime wouldn't rush the pacing. Tearmoon Empire novels are rich in exposition and info dump. And I also enjoyed the character development of Mia from the volumes that I've read. Her character design from the PV looks really cute already. I just hope SILVER LINK does this justice...

The anime community won't be ready for this one. x) |

| This is so good! We have wave of villainess anime coming! We have already coming:
And probably more is coming still! |

Crow_Black said: so another villianiess redemption isekai ish oh splendid just what we needed. This is not villainess isekai but villainess reincarnation. |

Crow_Black said: Close hence the ish part but even still wish that more shoujo were adapted, mayhaps this can change others minds in a ideal world who knows. Yeah. It is practically same thing. But what would you expect if about half of new isekai manga/manhwa published these days are villainess stories? It surprised me that it took this long for anime industry to take the notice. This is probably going to be a new major isekai trend with alongside of generic male overpowered harem protagonists. These two genres are going to split isekai genre in half. |
|
| My French Revolution can’t be this cute! |
|
| YES YES YES! I knew it would happen someday, but thank goodness we got confirmation! Instantly gonna be one of my fav anime of the yr if done right! Just a bit questionable of SILVER LINK cuz they dont make a lot of good titles.. ill hope for the best. Studio has done 2 cours and multiple seasons before, so i wonder if it will also get more anime content |
BoazanianSep 6, 2022 7:26 AM
| Sounds wholesome, lil girl working to better her empire. |
 |
This should be interesting... Hopefully would be decent at least |
 (っ◔◡◔)っ 𝓘 𝔀𝓲𝓼𝓱 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓪𝓵𝓵 𝓱𝓪𝓿𝓮 𝓪 𝔀𝓸𝓷𝓭𝓮𝓻𝓯𝓾𝓵 𝓭𝓪𝔂 ♥ |
| Seems somewhat interesting. Normally, I would just watch and scroll through typical isekai shows but this stopped me from doing that. And that in itself is sort of an achievement, lmao. I'll keep an eye on this, the LN community showing interest in this has to be good indication, right? |
#Anime4Life be my Life Motto! #PrayForKyoAni  |
| looks really cute and interesting. but the staff is...meh.(silverlink needs to chill man) I just hope the adaptation is good. |

My mini speculation is that a lot of people get annoyed with isekai not so much because of the assembly line, but because of the male fantasy. |

I can't speak for the other titles RavenWolf1 mentioned, but I like the female protagonist in Tearmoon Empire as she's less cringey and more of an oddball compared to most MCs in the genre. And she isn't overpowered, so she can't exactly figure out a problem instantly or make up a power to fix something on top of that, the story just seems better crafted than the rest of them. Similar to Genius Prince/Realist Hero, but with much less pondering to the love interests, except if it's actually part of the new storyline |

I just personally find it funny how people who demonize traditional isekais are literally crazy about the same shows with female protagonists. |

My God lol and they said the are makeing some changes. now I'm scared. Well, I heard that the latest edition of the manga in the West did some changes in the translation according to the agreement with the author, but I don't know the details. But I don't really like that despite the fact that the manga is technically not queer, the work and promotion of the work in the west was completely entrusted to translators and an editor with a lesbian identity. Anyway, given that Rose clearly touches on several modern triggers, I'm really scared to imagine what they're going to change. Give the manga a good ending? Or play with Oscar's identity and main cast? |

I think a good portion of ppl are tired of another fantasy story fantasizing about girls, and they'd gladly accept anything new including myself (even if the 'new' is just genders swapped). tho id also mention there seems to be better written stories, while not necessarily always good, at least feels different than a romcom in disguise |

The irony is that, and like ReZero with KonoSuba, the criticism was not understood and the shows themselves became role models. |

Yeah, and most examples of LN for women are fantasies about a handsome prince and a harem of bishonens. Excuse me, does the same plot get better or worse just because the MC has a different gender? |

First pages (sorted by popularity) have lots of villainess isekais which are geared for women. Isekais which are geared toward women are incredible popular as manga. Especially villainess genre. In Korea they are majority isekai stories these days. And because this Crunchyroll has noticed this trend too: Crunchyroll: Shojo Anime Genre Has Strong Growth Potential https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2022-03-31/crunchyroll-shojo-anime-genre-has-strong-growth-potential/.184215 That business seminar is the reason why we are today having flood of villainess and shojo anime. Yeah, and most examples of LN for women are fantasies about a handsome prince and a harem of bishonens. Excuse me, does the same plot get better or worse just because the MC has a different gender? Yes because often those women are not overpowered as male protagonists are. They have to use their wits to survive. I'm not saying that these can't get stale. Of course these are basically as generic as male based stories. But I welcome them because before we didn't have them. We only had those overpowered male generic harem protagonists which I hate watching. Now we are going to have more variety. Not just isekais for males. |

Are you now non-ironically trying to prove to me that stereotyped content for women is better than stereotyped content for men, because due to gender stereotypes there is an opposite power dynamic? And what do you think that content for guys is bad because it is not focused on you as a woman? Are you trolling me? You sound like some kind of gender bender parody of a typical incel weeb.

Like, are you looking forward to the apparent fights, attacks and chaos or what? And by that I mean the "arguing and attacking" part, not bantering or discussing about the same topics. A remake of the Rose of Versailles by MAPPA? God, my heart can't handle the chaos this show will become. I can already see how people will argue that Oscar is trans or lesbian, or attack Andre because he is the main center of heterosexuality in the show. Because I see how even regular works are subject to it. For example, recently Nintendo had to publicly deny that a character from a new game is not non-binary just because she was a tomboy. |
