I'm kind of wary of these shows for being melodramatic but that was beautifully done. Felt so many emotions just with 1 episode, I hope the rest of the show is this good. The atmosphere of everything was beautiful

Finally something good this season, have been starving. Visually this looks very pleasant, beautiful scenes. This got a fantastic feel to it, with the way the presented Miyo and how she was treated. That mother is a monster and what a wuss of a father.

It's been awhile since Taisho Otome(Fall 2021 anime) with similar historical settings where I guess this is either Meiji or Taisho era. Tough luck on Koji not ended up getting together with Miyo but instead ended up with the bitchy stepsister.

This show is promising and looking forward to the next episode to know about this new family of Miyo there.

Loved the slow, careful pace and the seriousness and gravity of the presentation.  A breath of fresh air in a genre that's often a bit silly.  Also very interesting to see a Meiji-era series--not many series set in this time period, and it was rendered beautifully here.

It does leave me wondering where the drama will come from moving forward.  Presumably the new fiance is at least as traumatized as Miyo is for one reason or another.  Will be interesting to find out.

The episode was sad, a little depressing to watch since it showed all the hardships that miyo has faced from her childhood and even now she has been arrange marriage to a heartless soldier. Interesting story and good execution. Let's see how the story moves forward from here.

Japanese Cinderella re-telling, at least in the beginning.

Very moving soundtrack, the best soundtrack of the season.

Feels very genuine and made with plenty of care, excellent start.

Man that's a sad start to this anime, losing the person you like to your stepsister that is an asshole towards you, and then having to marry someone whom you don't know, also that backstory shown during the travel? great use of time.

This Anime will be wonderful, I can tell. Soundtracks by Evan Call, Opening Song by Riria. I totally recognized her voice since she sang for Summer Time Rendering ED (also a hidden gem). Seems Netflix grabs the higher latter (Unlike Prime Videos...) like it was with Violet Evergarden.

Koji loses her for the better. Koji is a weak man. He had no ability to deal with his father's decision, let alone the rounded oppression she is facing and would face.

The current male MC is strong and profound. The only thing missing is certainly good judgment. With that, the story is going to be a banger.

This is how the use of CGI should look like every time! It was aesthetically so pleasing, such a treat to the eye!

After watching that eyesore "The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses" yesterday this anime gave me hope again that there are still animators and directors working in this industry who are not completely blind.

But to talk about the story as well I am not a fan of the wicked step-mother, wicked step-sister trope so I hope these two stock-characters won't appear again in the future (though I guess it is ineviteble with this kind of story).

Miyo is living in a toxic environment :( Not good. A father who's cold and doesn't care about her daughter's feelings, a half-sister and step-mother who's constantly berating Miyo. I'm surprised the father doesn't step up for Miyo and just let Kaya and mom treat her that way. Sad...
I have high expectations and also have a feeling that Kudo will open up and prove them wrong. The art is gorgeous!

Agreed. The composer is Evan Call, he also composed the music for the Violet Evergarden series and movies and recently some other shows, even the music for the Japanese live action drama series  '13 Lords of the Shogun'. He's also composing the music for the anime show 'Sousou no Frieren' which is due to air in Fall 2023.

It was an amazing first episode. It was sad but I enjoyed it. I was hyped for the anime.
The art was very beautiful and the soundtrack was also pretty nice.
The story so far is well made. The characters are okay so far. 
I wonder what will happen next. I need the second episode!

Has the set up for a pretty great romance. Really nice looking and crafting a sympathetic main character in the first episode. Hope she finds happiness by the end because man her circumstances are sad in this initial episode. High hopes for this anime.

I wonder if this is going to be yet another single season anime where the production committee has no intention of even trying to fund the adaptation of all of the source material? (the light novel is apparently still ongoing and the manga is some way behind). In  other words will it be yet another promo for the source material?

AAAND one of the most awaited romance anime is here. It was a stunning first episode. The animation was so clean and gentle, almost reflecting Miyo's character.

I have to say tho, I believe they are adapting the novel and not the manga because of few changes I noticed. I also found Kouji to be more good looking in the manga than in the anime but oh well, no comment on that one. The voice actors were cast perfectly, everyone sounded just the way I imagined it when reading the manga. Miyo's especially. 

Kaya is a  bitch like usually. Can't wait to see karma hit her as hard as possible.

Kiyoka is as good looking as ever. Can't wait for the next episode!

So we got a shitty dad who let his new wife shit all over his daughter and then kinda treated her like shit or at least indifferently. But anyway first impression of the new husband is basically "yo that keigo shit is cringe. If I hear desu and masu one time imma beat your ass."

Just now watch it live on kadokawa's official YT channel.  It was a great premier episode although they didn't include any subtitle it wasn't that difficult to understand the situation.

It's basically Japanese Cindrella. It's quite melodramatic in good way. After so many high school rom-com this one is really a breath of fresh air. As expected art style is beautiful and I am really enjoying the traditional Japanese setting can't wait for next episode.

(Btw the song which they played at the end sounds prity good)

Glad the first comment makes note of the Cinderella inspiration, but don’t take that and think it’s just Cinderella with a Japanese themed slapped over it. The main similarity is how she is treated by her family.

Beautifully done.

The melancholy is Kazuo Ishiguro level stuff.

I think Kouji's father was genuinely trying to help both his son and Miyo in an almost impossible situation, I expect he's also well aware how much of a spoiled brat Kaya is.

Given that, I expect he knows what Kiyoka needs in a wife and that Miyo is stoic enough to see that through.

I will only be truly satisfied with this show if at the end Kaya and her loathsome mother have a severe fall in circumstances are forced to call on Miyo's good graces to survive.

This is something I didn't know I needed. I love the chapter is not full of unnecessary dialogues and the one it have are so beautiful. The seiyuu did a marvelous job in this chapter. Also, you can understand a lot of the situation without no one telling you about it.

I'd had really high hope for this one and it does not disappoint me. The voice acting, background music, and all are so well done, the voice actress who voiced our main female lead did an amazing job, her voice is beautiful, so sad, depressed, hurt, and blank which fits the fl so much.
I was so frustrated at the family treating her not even as well as the servants. The mother, and the sister I can logically understand, not that they can treat her like that but the father, he's not even "TRYING" to protect "HIS" child, who happened to be here because of him, making so furious that he was watching them doing this to her. But you know what, I'm happy for her, finally, she can leave that hellish place that so-called "home". She not getting married to that dude at the beginning, and leaving that house, and marrying to a beautiful, handsome man like Kudou, good for her, this is definitely going to be a happy marriage

Okay, this looks solid!

Man, I really hoped the father would have that little bit of redemption and order her to marry Koji but of course it wasn’t going to be that simple, *sigh*. At least this means that she won’t have to caged in the house anymore, and the arranged partner seems like a tough nut to crack but we all know how this is going to go…

And boy, I can’t wait! Miyo-san deserves some happiness, she’s just too sweet and kindhearted. It’s always those nasty step-mothers, lol.

ED is so soothing, definitely sets the sentimental romance mood in the air right.
