On the surface, the show is pretty basic. Princess gets kidnapped from her country and hero sets out to find her and bring her home. What sets it apart is the fact that the princess actually enjoys her captivity more than being at home, and is constantly looking for ways to improve her sleep. We follow Syallis on her journey to find the perfect night’s rest, and along the way have hilarious interactions with the Demon King and his attendants.
It’s really as wholesome as it sounds, but still manages to keep you engaged with its great comedy, character interactions and of course, coziness. Minase Inori gives one of her best performances to date as Syallis and really brings the character to life. The other seiyuus in the show are also excellent and manage to enhance the humour.
I can’t recommend this show enough if you’re looking for something funny, cute and original to watch. You won’t regret it. Maojou de Oyasumi gets 10 pillows out of 10.
