| Exclusive iQIYI China streaming before dAnimeStore / U-NEXT / CR streaming and TV broadcast. 1st 3 Episodes air back-to-back. Webtoon novelist Plutus's Korean manhwa adaptation, produced by a Chinese animation company, along with Chinese/Japanese sub/dub, what kind of world are we living in to see much of Asia unified through anime? DAOKO's Japanese OP is quite frankly OK, though TOMOKO's Chinese OP is the better of the two. If this show seems familiar from a "different" standpoint, look no further than Tearmoon Empire, with a pretty similar aesthetic about a princess having to be "reincarnated" herself to avoid calamity, though this 2017 work came out long before that. And what's the calamity you ask? It's treason against her own father using dark magic, though this is the restart for the empress consort of Princess Athanasia de Alger Obelia to avoid that fated future of hers by overseeing the events in the Ruby Palace. And amidst the pack, one maid had the better idea to try and steal the empress consort's valuables, though dealing with Athanasia thinking that she's just a normal kid who knows no better, just resumes her bankrolling off the palace, and the lil' princess acting her smarts when it comes to the crunch, though it's her memories who's doing all of the work to change her future, one event at a time, despite not being able to use magic. And in the eyes of the King, there's just no need to report trivial matters like that. It's the same story with XAI's Japanese ED and Shayi's Chinese ED, where the latter is the better of the two. It's been a long while since I've watched purely Chinese animation, so this isn't really bad at all. Regardless, it's a good start. |

| I started watching and was just shocked to realize...I've read/completed the manhwa a while ago but didn't realize it till after the OP. Putting that aside: It's a cute start but if I had to compare it to my memory of the pacing in the manhwa...it seems fast....but slow at the same time? I'm glad they aired eps 1-3 back-to-back basically... One thing that's odd though is the description (and I thought the manhwua mentioned this too) says she's "isekai'd" that's why she "knows the future" but the anime is saying she just has the ability to "see the future". A weird discrepancy that they seem to go back and forth on because even Anthy mentions she's a "supporting character" even with the odd emphasis that she keeps having "nightmares about her fate" I wonder if anime-only's will notice this, cuz it kinda bothers me. |

| I personally disliked how much more goofy it feels than the comic and that some of the plot changed. But I do like the animation a lot. |
| Glad they (mostly) dropped the isekai garbage. It wouldn't have made any damn sense. Almost didn't watch it though after the opening was pure reverse harem garbage, but so far it's been a decent story. Although not a big fan of the "I don't have magic" also "I can see the future. |
| This show would've completely slipped under the radar if it wasn't for random podcasts, never heard of the original story and by the sounds of it that may be a boon. It sounds like source readers are a little disappointed. Regardless, Gorgeous looking animation, Feels like every season now has at least one donghua to look out for and i'm here for it. |
| Pretty good 1st episode. However, I can't decide to watch in Japanese or in Chinese. I like to see a series in its original language, but I'm not used to Chinese and had some issues: - the lip syncs better to Chinese - but the subs on CR are made with the Japanese in mind. |

@Ikano They changed the plot to her having future vision instead of being a reincarnated. So it's kinda different but the main plot points still happen. They're also adding scenes from the novel and OG scenes which I appreciate because it makes the pace much better. I also appreciated the teases to future characters and expanded roles for others. So far it looks pretty promising.
| @Alfocrack Does that mean whomever wrote the anime script well....they didn't proof read it well enough? Because some of the dialogue still implies she isekai'd ....unless the english subs are wrong which isn't totally not a possibility either I guess...especially since this is airing with both Chinese & Japanese dub |

| i guess they changed the plot? the manhwa plot was different but overall good first ep, excellent animation |
 |
| I'm wondering if the king is trying to protect her from something. Otherwise his disdain is perplexing. They said he even hated her mother. Why have her as a consort? Very odd. |
