Yup, another one of those shows about a betrayal and main girl getting a second chance to avoid such fate.

While this show definitely has a serious theme and plot, there's light humor moments too by the looks of it. Jill herself seems like a normal person although she's now motivated by her second chance. She and Rave definitely has some interesting chemistry.

Remember Fall 2022's Akuyaku Reijou nanode Last Boss wo Kattemimashita a.k.a I'm the Villainess, So I'm Taming the Final Boss?
Yes, female novelist Sarasa Nagase is back once again to showcase her next latest work of this show, which compared to the former, is an actual sword-and-sorcery, fantasy romance series despite having the obvious reincarnation phase.


Like most villainess-cum-time travel-centric shows, Jill Cervel would be akin to Loop 7-Kaime a.k.a 7th Time Loop's Rishe Irmgard Weitzner (that interestingly enough, this LN came out before the latter) but without the villainess part to fight against the man whom she adored a lot: Gerald de Kleitos, after being seen as a traitor to their own kin. And now, with time turned back for the 16-year-old fiancé to revert 6 years back to her 10-year-old self to the party that started the downward spiral of fate, she wants to change fate of her imminent betrothal...by marrying somebody else. But what she did not expect to marry: the Dragon Emperor of Hades Teos Rave...which he accepts, and Jill descends down yet another dark, but different road once again.

Hades is every bit of a tyranny he is knowing that Jill faced him before in her past life...but in the time warp, he's become more of an obedient dog towards her, a pure Ikemen that will charm the right woman. And sure enough, he did to make sure that Jill is well taken care of, from clothes to food on the way back to Hades's Rave Empire, on top of charming a young girl like her who's infatuated of the siscon kind. And his Dragon God Rave knew that it was too much of coincidence to ever get along when they've just met and chastised Hades for it. Most importantly, though Jill's lie was just for show, she made well of her word that she would follow along with the marriage to him, regardless of the new fate that comes her way.

It's a decent start for something that's same-same but different, that's not a villainess show.

Uh, where THE HELL IS THE FBI WHEN YOU NEED THEM... But yeah no lol, Applause to her for not grabbing a fork and stabbing the prince in the eyes. If it were me, I would’ve done it, even if it meant dying. She was ready to sacrifice herself before, just to attack him. Honestly, in that society, her age wasn’t even that special. Young girls were being married to old men for money. A 10-year age gap might be bad when she’s a kid, but it wouldn’t matter much when they’re adults.

As for the whole thing when it comes to the prince’s anger, I think it’s because his fiancée (the one who proposed to the MC’s sister) ran off with her brother. He found it disgusting. It’s similar to why the MC went back in time—maybe the dragon god thing messes with people’s minds. But knowing how terrible the prince was, it could’ve been the royal family’s fault. Though, more than all of the questions, the one I need answered the most out of them all is what the hell happened in those six years to snap dude out of this virgin lover boy lol.

While semi-generic, I can see the potential a bit. Will look forward to this one in the coming weeks, that's for sure.

Kind of a crazy first episode, it has potential, and some scenes were good, I hope it gets better as they go along.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

the usual villainess/heroine got betrayed and then time travelled to correct the mistakes trope....but the name kratos is throwing me off guard every single time...because all this time...i've known kratos as a buff baldy oldman who beats the shit out of gods...then just hearing the name as a someone who had forbidden relation with his real sister is really doing a number of things to my brain lol

So... we have another time loop, with relatively cliche reasons. Only thing I would have like to have seen would have been Jill calling the prince out, in front of all the nobility, for his illicit love with his sister. While he may have been able to get most of the nobility to laugh it off, he would have likely been under major scrutiny from that point on.

And while many would question her initially backing out of her proposal to Hades, just think about it. 1) She's a 10 year old girl, so it's difficult to get her thoughts and feelings together; 2) she just looped backed (reincarnated?) and so she is a bit disoriented still; and 3) Hades did seem to make a comment about what could be implied as statutory rape. Those issues are gonna give any girl some 2nd thoughts.

I didn't have very high hopes for this at first, but after watching the first episode I'd like to say that it most certainly exceeded my expectations! I thought the story was quite interesting, and I personally like the mc, she seems like a unique character. The animation also seemed quite nice. I'd love to see what else this anime has prepared for us in the coming weeks!

For someone who comes from a living nightmare of blackmail and betrayal, she is pretty aloof after the reset. Why not just decline the marrige request? Or maybe leave the premises if that's not an option? Or at least listen to canditate B before freeking out? Hope with the conclusion of episode one, that nonsense is gone, otherwise I'll drop it. But the 3 episode rule applies, I guess.

Very strong first episode.

Was looking forward to this one and, so far, it has nicely exceeded my expectations.

Love the main voice actors, and the plot is both funny and really quite sweet.

Have a feeling this one will be of my faves of this season if it continues like this.

Oh i've been looking forward to this one, glad to see it's finally here. Luckily this looks like it will be a good one, i had a stupid grin on my face the entire time i was watching (other than the part where Hades openly confessed to he wanted to marry a child, that is kinda icky dude). I do wish they were the same age though, that would have made this a much better show. It doesn't feel that great to end up with a slightly icky feeling because i enjoyed a show that has some problematic relationships. The characters are however quite great, Jill is wonderful, Kratos did a great job of making me hate his guts and Hades honestly seems more like a big brother type of character (that is slightly ruined when they talk about things like wooing a 10 year old...). Overall i really had an enjoyable time with this first episode, i'm looking forward to seeing more of what they have in store for us.

I absolutely love the way these type of animes use the cartoonified version of the characters for comedic relief, it works wonders on this dumbass right here

Did I see that right? Did Hades say it would have been better if she was a few years younger…??? Like. I know he is clueless and I believe I have read that it is more wholesome and that they wait for marriage until she is of age. But that set off some warning bells. Again hoping for the actual clueless part. And yes, I can get past the age gaps and the characters being young in these stories because it is always “arranged marriage as kids but absolutely nothing happens until they are of age”. Also. I have some resistance to certain “trashy” anime tropes. I do like my trashy shows from time to time so I can handle. But I think this is the first time I saw a character go “I wish you were younger” to an already underage character.

Seems incredibly similar to "7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy!" although I like the format of that.

It's a shame that the age difference thing (with her being 10, and is he 19..?) is apparently a concrete thing in the plot. I just thought that he was the same age as her, but that they drew him to be a lot taller until they started joking about the age difference a lot 😬

Hopefully it's nothing too weird anyway...

Bruh does this guy get stronger? He's literally just instant teleporting and overpowering people by standing there.

So she (10) went from pedophilic sister fucker (15) to super pedophile (19) who prefers 7-8 year olds to marry over 10 year old.
Having 40 year old marry 16 year old isn't helping.

Outside of the pedophilia, enjoyable. I like these types of animes even if the same thing roughly. I know it's likely like another game, but the name cards made me think of Super Smash Bros. which was interesting.

4/5, that dragon is so cuuuuuute

@justhuman22 I'm a little worried that they made a pedo joke out of that, but he seems too innocent to act creepy towards her.

Ok, I’ve tried a few other of these shojo ’do-over / fix my ending’ type stories and never make it through the end of a season. But I’m kinda liking the characters in this one so far. A diminutive dragon-god cracking wise might make this work for me.

I am hoping he is that innocent. I am sure there is either some kind of magic or plot reason for that comment. Or maybe he is trying to replicate his parents without realizing that it can be seen as wrong by so many people. The statement has made me wary. But I am at least giving it another episode to see where it goes.

Best Wednesday seasonal dropped!! Idc what anyone says I’ll always love these female MC do over stories. Off to a great start so far, age gap is a little uncomfortable but we’ll see how they handle it. I get some 7th loop vibes with Jill trying to reform Hadis!

Jill’s absolutely adorable and it looks like Hadis is a really sweet guy too, so hopefully they don’t get too weird with things. I don’t see him as the sort of fella who would make her uncomfortable or be inappropriate. It’s hard to imagine this is a fella who in the OG timeline was willing to kill women and children? I reckon something bad happened to him to turn him that way and Jill being here should prevent it. The Rishe and Arnold vibes are real strong

Can’t get over the kingdom and by extension Prince, being named Kratos tho 😂 family name I know but that’s funny af. Also dude really had her killed in the OG timeline just because she found out he was banging his sister? That’s some game of thrones type shit. Jill trying to avoid him at the party once she got reincarnated was too funny

Love the art style as well! Everything so pretty. Great first ep

It doesn't look bad, although it has the same cookie-cutter plot as the other betrayed heroine stories.

The age gap though is just too funny. My man's ideal wife is 7-8 years old. Alright, Buddy, you're getting locked up.

Jill: I am dying. If I could fix my life...

Death: I do not want you... still. Vade retro, little shit, fix your life and come back to me again decently!

Very, very good beginning episode! Death sent Jill back to her past -- when she was literally a little shit -- to fix her life and... Jill took the extreme route with Hades the Dragon Emperor, for the 180 degrees effect. One must respect Jill...

@_kawaii_chan__ Ok, So this is actually OLDER than 7th Time Loop? Well, There are definite similarities for sure. And for OLd style Noble Families, arranging marriages this young? The NORM back in the day. THough that one comment was weird that Hades made, definitely WEIRD.

@Sheol01 Betrothals were normal at this age (and way younger), but that's just an engagement. Often times they would not even have met in person until she's of proper wedding age, which was after puberty.

Hadis wants an actual 10-year old wife (preferably even younger), which definitely was not common. They can't even bear children at that age...

But hey, between a siscon and lolicon, the lolicon is better by a very small margin.
